Comments on: Date night http://daddyscratches.com/2009/05/23/date-night/ Watch as 40-year-old suburban husband, father and writer with delusions of grandeur has a meltdown before your very eyes.

We would BOTH climb into the kid's bed and squeeze the living daylights out of them and steal their pillows and stick our fingers in their ears. Your day will come and it will be wonderful and fun.

I hope I don't jinx it here at my house, but my kids are pretty good at getting up around 6 or 6:30 am. They could sleep 'til 7 am, but that's if they're beat. We get 'em up at 6 am when my oldest has to go to JK since there's so much to do before the 7:30 am bus pick up. Yes, that's right, the BUS comes at freakin' 7:30 AM!

I mean, they actually open the curtains and let the light in. And PULL OFF THE DUVET. I'm chilled just thinking about it.

That is a toss up:) Margaritas...YUM. We never make on date nights either, so last night I whipped up 2 pitchers of margaritas, sent Stinker to play in the sandbox, and we toasted to the idea of a date while sitting on our patio.
