>PBN (Parent Bloggers Network) has done it again. They have arranged for a Blog Blast with an irresistible topic. This one is co-sponsored by PBN and marriage.eharmony.com.

You know you need a real date with your husband when…

• You can find his cell phone number in your phonebook without looking.
• You talk over important issues while preparing the lawn for mowing.
• You would talk while mowing, but the mower’s too loud, and you’re not fluent in Sign Language — yet.
• You say “I love you” by filling each other’s vehicles with gas.
• You leave email messages for each other at work saying, “Check your home email.”
• You look at each other and say, “When did you get a haircut?”
• The last serious discussion you had together involved rototilling and compost — two weeks ago.
• You text message him with baseball results — because he’s at work and you’re chaperoning a field trip to the ballpark.
• He text messages you with his opinion on the football game you’re watching — because he’s working on the sideline, and you’re at home with the kids. (“That was a fumble!”)
• Both of you come home with bunny food and greet each other with, “I thought I was supposed to buy bunny food, not you.”
• Neither of you come home with bunny food, and you stare at the hungry rabbits and say to each other, “I thought you were going to buy bunny food.”
• Watching Jeopardy together is the most romantic part of your day.
• He complains that his nickname on your blog is boring.
