I followed mom's advice and got separate bank accounts, so we would never argue about how to spend money. So, we argued over how to spend time. We got past that eventually. Now we argue over where to spend time. Rubbing elbows at home or rubbing elbows on the town?
Is there a disorder called Familial Agoraphobia? Because the older the S_____ family gets the more hestitant they are to leave the house.
I believe it's just age. I was soooooo hip when I was younger, I swear it. I was out on the local music scene all the time, in a bar every night of the week, or hanging at a friend's house, talking about the local music scene or what was happening in the bars.
Now I actually fantasize about being on my couch with my feet tucked under the throw when I'm somewhere else. That's what I did last night, and it was a kind of heaven.

I'm actually more apt to go out and party now, but since I married a may 15 years older than me, it requires finding him a cardigan and being home before 9.

Tami - I need to get out of the house at night once every two weeks at least. Gary never needs to leave the house.
Candy - That age spread is sharp! Leaving by nine sounds like a good compromise to me, at least you get to be out with him. Our compromise is that I leave without him.
