La Romanza

Sometimes in the hectic busyness of everyday, a couple can forget to slow down and enjoy each other. Don't worry- this isn't dirty. Tonight, Eduardo and I decided to walk to our favorite little corner Vietnamese restaurant for dinner. The air was cool and the wind strong. As we ate, the Tracy Chapman song that we danced to at our wedding came on and we got sort of sentimental. We are not slowdanceinmiddleoftherestaurant folks, but the conversation quieted a moment and we just felt content. Then, on the walk back to our apartment, a few raindrops turned into pouring rain and we got soaking wet. Laughing through puddles and drenched clothes, we walked hand in hand in the hard rain.

Now we are back home and things are back to normal. We are watching "House" and chatting about what we want to buy at Home Depot, and I am on the internet, obvio.

But it was a nice evening. An infrequent and spontaneous romantic interlude. And a nice reminder that, even though we have been together for 7 years and married for almost 4 years, we can still be romantica.

That's totally like whenever I punch Ian in the balls and he's like, "Oh, honey--remember when you punched me in the balls the first night we met?" And I'm all, "No." And he's all, "Oh. Whoops." And then I'm like, "Whoops nothing. I'll punch you in the balls again, fiance!"

And then we get married in 22 days.
