When you're dating, the quality of the relationship is equal to the amount of time you spend together, and more is better. When you've been married for a few years, the quality of the relationship becomes equal to the amount of time you spend apart, and again, more is better.

When you've been married for almost 10 years you know that when your husband asks you to be on top so he can watch you what he really means is he's feeling lazy and his belly's full of chips and salsa.

My husband confuses me. Whenever he hears a car drive down our road he asks if someone is here or he looks out the window to see if there is a car in our driveway. Yet whenever I go to Wal-Mart (every other mother humpin' day) he has NO IDEA when I've pulled in the driveway. I come to the door, my arms full of bags and struggle to open it but does he hear that? No. I get in the house, walk past him and am half way to the kitchen when he says "Oh, are there any more bags out there?" THE ANSWER IS YES. IT IS ALWAYS YES. YES YES YES. Then he ever so slowly starts moving so that he is finally standing as I am walking back in to the room to head back outside. He then looks at me like "uh, duh, do you still need me or are you just gonna do it so I can, uh, sit back down?" And then I punch him in the balls and finish carrying in the bags.

A Wedding is not a Marriage 101 - session includes lectures from couples married ten or more years and currently withholding sex from one another because the sound of the other's voice is unacceptable. Also scheduled to appear: couples in their 17th honeymoon faze (sign up quick for this lecture because it is extremely brief! There is also a chance that it will be canceled. Choose alternate elective as a back up.)
