Things Matt has decided count as a date:
1) Trip to Home Depot for moving boxes.
2) The dog park.
3) Department store.
4) Geocaching. (Okay, that one was actually fun.)
5) The transfer station.
6) My doctor’s appt.
7) The hospital E.R.
I’m not kidding. I can’t make this stuff up. It’s real, people.

Let us toast to animal pleasures, to escapism, to rain on the roof and instant coffee, to unemployment insurance and library cards, to absinthe and good-hearted landlords, to music and warm bodies and contraceptives… and to the ‘good life,’ whatever it is and wherever it happens to be.Hunter S.

Rob would produce a similar list. his excuse is: a change is as good as a rest.
Now, you have to admit the transfer station was romantic.
P.S. what would you say to accompanying me to the dentist? Pick ya up at 8am…
I can almost see the dog park being a date. Before I met The Boy, I used to look up date ideas online because I was tired of having a sex-only partnership with Mailbox Boy. One of the things a popular womenfolk’s site suggested was the dog park. And you know what? It was right! We took the dogs to the dog park, bathed them, came home, and had more meaningless sex. But hey, we talked at the park!
From our perspective, it’s all about earning “hubby points”. We keep thinking we can earn a whole bunch of points and then cash them in for luscious rewards. problem is, being guys, we usually do something stupid that wipes out our balance in a heartbeat, and we have to start all over again.
bg: Their idea of a luscious reward is not the same as ours anyway.
But sometimes it is and we’re punishing ourselves as well. But you have to learn. You have to learn!
I’m earning the points for a discount on the stupid thing. I know the luscious rewards are given freely and I count myself lucky.
