Date Night

We've scored a babysitter tonight; Bump and I are going to the movies.

Okay, FINE. Bump and I are going to see Star Trek.

In IMAX.

Hey, laugh at me all you want, but I present you with two options:

1) Drinks and dinner at Liberty Tavern, where the food is great and the Happy Hour crowd is young and beautiful.

2) Star Trek in IMAX.


On balance, perhaps those two options seem roughly comparable. Or maybe you don't understand why anyone in their right mind would choose Option 2. But if you want to scan the room and assess who has the best chance of getting laid later, Option 2 is gonna be a lot better for your self-esteem than Option 1.

Hey your nerd is showing. However, I married a nerd and inherited his nerd friends. So, I'll probably be seeing the movie too. But if it makes you feel better, some of his friends pre-bought tickets two weeks ago. That's uber nerdy!

I bet you could get laid either way.

(That is the best part of marriage. They HAVE to. It is his DUTY.)

I'd go and see Star Trek too. But then, I have the boxed set of the entire original series...
