Cheeky....Cheeky.....
Last week, one of my good friends and I while, enjoying our weekly Starbucks run.... were chatting about our respective marriages....I mean...what else do you talk about over a grande pumpkin spice latte?
She mentioned how she couldn't understand how connected Juice and I are...as a couple....with him being gone all the time.....
I think it went something like...."Geesh....don't you find it hard to be married?...
And the answer to that is....
I have an online affair with my husband.....which I guess is fitting and Ironic, as I actually (somewhat embarrassingly) admit we met on Myspace.....I usually say we met through mutual friends....so this stays between You, You, you over there...and me!
Luckily with the age of high speed internet....Juice and I are able to have online date nights...that can and do sometimes involve wine-ing and dining...and lots of pleasant conversation including such important topics as....what we want to do when he gets home, how Hawaii Is this time of year....he'll without fail ask what I'm wearing....etc, etc...
to get the mood right, I even grab a glass of wine and something Sinfully Chocolate....
I can even say with a straight face that there are even some benefits of an online romance....
1) while Instant messaging...I can multi task and check out my fave blogs, peruse Etsy...or check in on Perez....without missing a beat.
2) I don't have to worry about my legs being shaven, or my hair being done....
3) I can have every pillow on the bed...not just mine!
4) If said Husband says something that I find annoying, offensive or downright rude...I can just sign off....no uncomfortable ride home...followed by an explaination of why jerk wad will be slumbering on the couch for the foreseeable future.
Now, I'm not saying that I would trade Juice being home in a million, gazillion years....no way Jose...Steve or Joe!
But if I have to compromise every once in awhile......my hot and heavy internet love affair....
will definitely help keep the spark alive.....

My hubby doesn't know how to use the internet well enough for an online romance. Although we do email about 100 times a day!
Ha! Good for you... it sounds romantic enough for me! :)
I think that's so sweet. My husband & I talk on the phone about 10 times a day. I'd rather get texting but I do like to hear his voice. Makes his time at work go faster.
Now that sounds like exactly the right way to keep the spark alive. My hubs and I also do something similar, even though he just works a few cities away on most days.
Nothing like a few good online moments (wink, wink, nudge, nudge) to keep things exciting. :)
It's so cool that you guys can do something special like that, and it's always a good thing to add spark whenever you can =)
You gotta make it work and it sounds like you do!
