Indulge me

Indulge me
Edy and I walked over to the movie theater last night.
It’s not a big deal from a cardio standpoint because it’s only ½ a block away and it gives us just the right amount of time to “switch gears” and prepare to “have fun”.

The movie was a bit goofy but very entertaining.
Popcorn and Dr. Pepper were the standard issue snacks, as always. I don’t drink sodas except when I’m out at the movies and then, only “The Dr.” 

It may sound a bit strange that we have to actually “prepare” to have fun, but it’s true.
We’re the kind of couple that would make a lot of folks run for the hills, in fact we have made folks run for the hills. Not on purpose of course, but because…………..well, we are kind of INTENSE!!

It’s nothing for us to spend 3 or 4 hours in the morning in conversation before the Day has begun and then picking it up again……….and again and again during the day….into the evening ……til the next day and then we start again. If traveling it is via cell/txt/emails. All this between work, books, research, phone calls etc….She is the most fascinating person I know, on so many levels; She is my love.

At the airport today we discussed the following topics in the hour we were waiting to get in line for TSA:
Masculine-Feminine Energy - as it relates to Race, Income Levels and Cultures
Relationship Evolution – Short Term / Long term / Transitioning in/out
Child Psychology – Parinatal Development
Fashion (a favorite topic)
Real Estate Development
Espionage
National Security
  
When we got up to get in line, there was a lady standing around the corner from where we were sitting, she looked at us and I could see that if given the opportunity we would only be seeing her back and roll-on cresting the hills in the distance. She was in shock.

 We “work hard to lighten up”.
Movies, Museums and now the Zoo have taken the place of tennis, golf and shopping for now.
Of course the to / fro any of these activities are fare game for “conversation”………we had someone mention the other day to us to pick a couple of articles in the newspaper and discuss them in lieu of our more in-depth subject matter – ARE YOU NUTS ??? we have world, national, regional and local affairs completed BEFORE  we start on our “daily convo” …………..we’re hopeless.

Anyway, I walked Edy to the TSA Checkpoint and gave her a big kiss goodbye.
I noticed the Security agent said something her after checking all her paperwork.  We waved and I headed off to the car while she prepared for the gyrations required to make it through the gauntlet to the gate.

When I got to the car there was a text message from her saying:
The TSA guy said he was a “BIG fan of Love” ………….Ah, just what the Dr. ordered.
