Brilliant idea # 2009!
So the other day I dragged Nate to see New Moon with me. (Nate actually liked it, but don't tell him I said so.) After the movie however, I came up with the greatest idea that will be sure to put some spice in anyone's otherwise ordinary life.
What if we all incorporated some Twilight-type vocabulary as well as behaviors into our every day lives? Example: When your husband is leaving for work instead of just saying ' bye have a nice day, I love you' like we normally would, give him a very long passionate kiss like it may be the last time he's ever seen alive and say, "Be careful out there. The only thing I'm scared of is losing you!"
Of course you may want to give him a heads up on your new choice in words before hand just so you don't freak him out.
Then, he can reply with something like, "I've got to go. I've got a vampire to kill."
Life is just so much more exciting when its dramatic.
I actually gave this idea a go the morning after seeing New Moon. I told Nate the idea before hand as suggested so he didn't comit me to the mental institution on the spot. Then, as I was kissing him good bye, I gazed up into his eyes with my best attempt at a dreamy expression and said "You can't leave me, I can't bear life without you."
To that my husband shook his head, chuckled and said, "okay, I've gotta go, you're really weird."
Not the response he was supposed to give.
