Just The Two Of Us


"We didn't talk about anything heavy or light. 
We were just there together. 
And that was enough."

-- Steven Chbosky, The Perks of Being A Wallflower


u and i,  4-29-14


"We go together,
Like rama lama lama ka dinga da dinga dong
Remembered forever
As shoobop sha wadda wadda yippity boom de boom
Chang chang changitty chang shoobop
That's the way it should be, wha ooohhhh, yeah."

-- "We Go Together," Grease


My husband and I went on a movie date last night. 

Just the two of us.

We were eating dinner, just the two of us, and he said he didn't bring home a movie rental.

The baseball game wasn't coming on until later.

Leo was out for the evening.

So I was like, "We could go out to a movie."

So that's what we did. We went to the movies.

Just the two of us.

The movie itself was "eh."

But being there together felt like old times, back when we did stuff together just because we could, for the simple reason that we had each other to do stuff with. 

I mean, we watch movies all the time. And we do stuff together, but lots of times we have one or both of our kids along with us, or sometimes friends.

But this time it was just us two. 

Two is good.
