I work days and Julie works nights, so we sometimes only get a few minutes together in a 24-hour period. Not fun, but you make the most of the time you do have. The other day I got home at the usual time, and Julie was taking a shower before going to work at the usual time. So I stand in bathroom doorway and we talk about nothing of any particular importance.
And then she took the showerhead down (it's one of those with a flexible hose), pulled back the curtain, and sprayed me! With absolutely no provocation or justification!
There were some obscenities. Some name calling. And a lot of hysterical laughing.
My parents observed when they came down to visit a month ago how I've come alive again, after years of slowly dying inside. It's because I get to spend my life laughing again, instead of just surviving.
And then of course we had to have the "I don't want to go to work" conversation. It's pretty routine, but she always finds a way to keep it fresh.
"I don't wanna go to work. I gonna quit my job."
"You're gonna do it, huh?"
"Yeah. You think there's a lot of demand for big overweight prostitiutes with double masectomies?"
"WHAT? Oh, hell no. Even if I thought there was, do you think I would tell you that there was?"
"Don't be such a big baby. You're not getting any tonight, but someone might as well."
One never knows what will come out of Julie's mouth. And I love it.

You already know this, but you two being together makes me so damned happy. I may have never met ya'll in person, but I know for certain you were meant for each other. I love you guys <3
One thing I have learned: If the SO does it, there is always provocation and/or justification. (And that applies to you too!)
