g & i changed into pajamas right after dinner.
him in soccer shorts.
me in sweats.
grabbed a bowl of pistachios & one extra for the shells
turned on the lamps & climbed into bed.
we watched the vice presidential debates together. the whole thing.
and i was interested & entertained & involved for the very first time.
you could tell g was loving every moment-seeing me grow more passionate about this thing that he loves. he would laugh & yell & pause the tv to explain his opinions to me.
and i really listened. and thought about mine, too.
and after it was over, he promised to watch a full episode of jon & kate with me.
to keep things fair.
and he did.
we layed there all night
& laughed & discussed & shared our thoughts
as we munched on nuts and watched the hours pass.
and i thought to myself
that i was lucky
for a night like this one.
Freaky that we did almost exactly the same thing. Our treat was ice cream instead... Weird.
ReplyDeleteThose are the best kind of nights. I'd be interested to hear what your (and Greg's) opinions were on the debate. I watched too . . . but I did it solo while my hub was at the Ute game. Boo.
ReplyDeleteWe sat on the sofa, didn't really munch on anything, but paused and explained to our girls what we thought and why. It's interesting now that they're more in the loop on world news. I also think Greg owes you more then 1 episode of Jon and Kate, that's only an hour show and the debate was pretty long (even though it was worth it!)
ReplyDeletesounds lame!
ReplyDeletehow fun... I love that you blog about nights and days like that... You will love it in the future. I need to start blogging more everyday happenings that I love. I hope to see you soon at the hospital! He is still just loving it in my belly. I love you JMO!
