Mad About You seems to somehow transcend that uncomfortableness (which appears to not be a word but who cares). It's so familiar that sometimes it's even more funny or touching or sad or angering. I swear to you there have been conversations in that show that I KNOW Mike and I have had if not word for word, pretty damn close to it. A lot of that show is based off of the fact that two people who at their core are total opposites come together to make this perfect team. They compliment each other like peanut butter and chocolate but understand that both are awesome by themselves. I feel that way about my husband and I. I know that Friday's post was cheerful (by this bloggie's standards) and I don't mean to sap it up here but let me explain what I'm talking about.
This morning Mike called me at work to chat about some stuff that happened and while on the phone and walking our pup he saw a manta ray in the channel by our apartment. And he was excited to see it...like it was a cool thing. Those of you who read this know of my disappointment with the people who I was with when I saw a ray in that channel and their complete lack of interest. See this: http://sureaboutthat.blogspot.com/2009/07/finedont-care-about-cool-stuffjerks.html for a refresher.
Hearing his excitement on the phone about the ray made me think about how like Jamie and Paul, Mike and I are a team. I'm the one that is nutshit crazy about ocean creatures but by him having an appropriate excited reaction to something like a ray gives me the warm fuzzies inside and makes me think that we truly are meant to be (insert Disney princess end credit song).
A. I love him
2. he loves me
That's all we need to know.
