Probably the best gift I got this year from the people I love is the opportunity to take my wife out on dates. When we started courting two years ago I was a poor student and our “dating” phase consisted of us hanging out at each others house and going for long, romantic walks on the beach with the stiff, salty breeze drying the melancholy tears from our eyes as we pondered how we never got to “go out” like we saw in all those Hollywood movies. All we ever wanted was a Pretty Woman relationship without my wife having to be a hooker and me not having to be Richard Gere (Richard Gere, uck!).
Now, thanks to my loved ones’ generosity, me and my lovely lady can live it large - suburban style. A night at the movies - no problem! Dinner out at some strip mall locale - any night of the week, baby! When the dust has finally settled and the red paint begins to glow on a warm San Diego morning well have seen more movies and eaten more lobster than is probably good for two grown adults. But best of all, I will have gotten to spend some really great time with the most beautiful woman in the world. Thank you generous loved one’s, you have made this Christmas great.
