I haven't slept with Garth (not his real name) since, Christmas!
[eyes go wide]
In the same bed, I mean, SHEESH!
We've been married for 20 years and, well, as Doofus is very willing to demonstrate (DAMMIT!) the couch can be pretty comfy, too.
Still, our kids are getting older, we're feeling old-ish (more and more, everyday, dammit!) I guess life is just rubbing our nerves raw, at the moment.
Okay, you can cut the tension with a cotton ball and the hardest part is, you know, pretending like our kids don't notice.
Oh, we're fine — just in case you were wondering or someone closely related to us happens to wander in here and read into stuff he, or she really shouldn't.
SLAM!
It's just real hard to wake Garth (not his real name) once he sits down, poor guy, so it's just easier to let him sleep with the dawg, while I watch Fiddler on the Roof, for the bazillionth time, right?
[the sound of crickets chirping]
Still, it also raises one very important question:
(Garth NHRN)
Do you love me?(Me)
Do I what?(Garth NHRN)
Do you love me?(Me)
Do I love you?
With kids in 4 different schools
And this cruddy flu going around
You're upset, you're worn out
Go inside, go lie down!
Maybe it's indigestion(Garth NHRN)
"I'm asking you a question…"Do you love me?
(Me)
I'm a dork!(Garth NHRN)
"I know…"But do you love me?
(Me)
Do I love you?
For twenty years I've washed your clothes
Cooked your meals, cleaned your house
PAUSE: Okay, so Garth (not his real name) does ALL of this too (maybe, even more) but, that's NOT the point, here! Continue:
Given you children, milked the cow (no, not really, SHEESH!)
After twenty years, why talk about love right now?(Garth NHRN)
The first time I met you
I didn't think we'd last the day
I was scared(Me)
I was shy
WAIT A MINUTE: Okay, for those of you who knew me B.C. (before children) you can all STOP laughing now! Continue:
(Garth NHRN)
I was nervous(Me)
Truth be told, so was I(Garth NHRN)
And now I'm asking,
Do you love me?(Me)
But, I'm such a dork!(Garth NHRN)
"I know…"
But do you love me?(Me)
Do I love him?
For twenty years I've lived with him
Fought him, laughed with him
After twenty years the couch is his
If that's not love, I ask you, WHAT IS?(Garth NHRN)
Then you love me?(Me)
I suppose I do(Garth NHRN)
And I suppose I love you, too
No, it doesn't change a thing, but even so, after twenty years, it's sorta nice to know — not to mention, hear myself say it out loud, pretend my blog is a stage and that I sing REAL good, too!
Move over, Doofus (the dawg, I mean!)

LOVED the Fiddler song parody!
You’re not alone (not sleeping alone alone?) We’ve been doing a similar thing out here. Maybe when work isn’t so stressful (as if that’s ever gonna happen – but one can dream).

This is so sweet. I kinda teared up (I’m PMSing SHADDUP!).
Love is so important.
I hope I’ll be the same in 20 years!

I LOVED THIS.
And FOTR is one of my faves. Not just because I’m Jewish. (Shuddup)
I think that you should surprise him and sleep on the couch with him one night. Give Doofus the bed. *snort*
