So yesterday I wrote a love letter to my husband.
We had a talk on Monday night about how our romance life is going, and without divulging too many personal details, I'll just say that we need some spice in our life.
We had such a hard year in 2004 with the loss of his father and the hard work going into completing his thesis. I know that we both need to make changes to make our relationship more of a priority and when I get to carrying on about it, all I end up doing is blaming it all on him.
I realized that I was doing that, and that it was so wrong. So I wrote to him because I knew that I'd be without distraction and less likely to get annoyed by anything.
When I went to sleep he was staying up to watch The West Wing. They put it on late here because it is not one of the more popular shows. I don't like it either and I was tired.
I snuck into the bathroom and taped it where he would find it while I was asleep and be able to read it in private.
He thanked me for it this morning. It is a start. I invited him out for a date for when we have a bit more breathing room in our finances because we are a bit broke at the moment and he said that was a good idea.
So now I need romantic date ideas. I could do the dinner thing, but that is done and tired. I will have to come up with something really good, and be armed with a plan so that the night accomplishes what I'm setting out to do. Food may be involved, but just eating out is not all that intimate.
Also, it is worthy to note please visit The California Hammonds, for every comment received a donation will be made to the National Breast Cancer Foundation's programs for breast cancer education and low-cost and free mammograms for low-income women. Please go there and comment.

Comments
Some of the more romantic things we've done for date night are: take a hot bath together by candlelight, cook a 4 course meal together, take evening walks to the coffee shop, read (sometimes erotic) stories to each other, at home massage. We also bought some satin sheets and a fake fur blanket that we take out now and then for some extra tactile fun.
Just think of the things you most enjoyed doing together when you were first dating and go from there.

Common Breast Cancer Myths
The first myth pertaining to this disease is that it only affects women.
Second myth that is associated with this disease is that if one has found a lump during an examination, it is cancer.
Third is that it is solely hereditary
The next myth associated with breast cancer is downright ridiculous. Would you believe, that in this day and age, some individuals still think that breast cancer is contagious?
Conversely, some individuals foolishly believe that breast size determines whether or not one gets cancer.
Finally, another myth that is associated with this disease is that it only affects older people. This is not so. Although the chance of getting breast cancer increases with age, women as young as 18 have been diagnosed with the disease.
