Apr. 11, 2008 - Improving Marriage?
Posted in Silly

(Warning: The link is appropriate for married couples. I'd call it PG-18. )

I am a disgustingly happily married woman.
I say "disgustingly" since most people just get disgusted at how happy we are.
We do have the occassional spat (which, of course, is always his fault) but they are rare.

But I'm always open for improvement.

So when I saw an article called "What Keeps a Man Crazy in Love", I thought I'd check it out.
Better safe than sorry, right?
I mean, he seems really happy.
He says he's really happy.
But I'm always open to learning...

So I start reading...

Play Poker
Hmmmm. Already we have a problem. I'm a better poker player than he is. And I know more types of poker than he does. Ok, skip that and moving on....

Give the Perfect Backrub
Uh-oh. I've tried that and it doesn't work. It would take a jackhammer for him to feel it. I'll have to stick with a back scratch. THAT one I can do.

Tie His Tie for Him
Not looking good here. He doesn't wear a tie. Ever. And if I put one on him, he'd be most unhappy.

Make A Mean Steak
That one's easier. If it's beef, he's happy.

Quote At Least Three Lines from The Godfather
I tried this.
Really.
With my best mafia voice, even.
He looked at me like I was nuts.
I got a better response with,
"This is where we fight. This is where they die..."
in my very best macho, Spartan, voice.
Not a great response mind you, but a better one.

I gave up.

I said; "But I want you to be 'crazy in love' with me."

"I already am", he said.

*swoon*

LOL! I guess it might work for some...but that list doesn't really suit us either-except for the beef, of course.
And since we raise beef cows, we're all set. LOL
I enjoyed reading the last few of your posts. Laughed at your post about getting a bp monitor. Holly

I'd have problems with that list too since neither of us have ever seen The Godfather and he also prefers a back scratch.

and for posting.

Glad to hear that you didn't need the help that the list offered :0) and glad to hear that you are still crazy in love :0) Hope that you will still be reporting the same after 55 years ( that is how long my parents were married before my dad passed away last month)

Enjoyed catching up with your postings I have not been around to read much on the blogs lately so it will take me some time to catch up with my reading.

Most of our friends think we are a disgustingly happy couple too. I would definitely agree that the occasional spats are his fault. I think those hints wouldn't do much good for our marriage--maybe make his favorite meals or something like that.
Cute post. How sweet he doesn't need those suggestions to be madly in love with you.

Aren't you the person who sneaks into your hubby's office and doodles on his work calendar, leaving notes such as "Call me, babe." and "What's your sign?" (to which he replied, "Sagittarius or open for business.") I think you've got the marriage thing worked out.
