The difference between being single and married....

  • When you're single, your date nights consist of dinners to the The Royal Crown at the Revolving Restaurant.
  • Dinner comes complete with steak, lobster and wine.
  • The view from where you're eating is beautiful......at the top of the restaurant you can see the entire city, leaves in full color, dining in elegance.
  • Perhaps an after-dinner hop to Silver City to catch a flick. And maybe some popcorn and M'nM's. You know, spare no expense!




  • When you're married, your date nights consist of a dinner on the run at A 'n W. You don't have time to sit down to eat anymore. You actually have to work a few jobs to pay the bills. So, you head off to the good 'ol drive-through.
  • Dinner comes complete with a burger, salty fries and a large coke.
  • The view from where you're eating is quaint......it's whatever you can see through the windshield, and hope that you don't drop ketchup all over your lap as you try to balance your fries and burger on your lap.
  • Perhaps an after-dinner jaunt to the Cheap Theatre. And when you buy those M'nM's, you make them last a whole week. Yummy!


The moral of the story: Good thing I married for love, not money.

As I recall the Revolving restaurant delivered us cold steak and over cooked lobster. The view was spectacular, Billy Bob wearing his lumber jacket and ripped jeans because it was buffet night.

At least the A&W was hot and the movie was a chick flick. What else can you ask for? But you did hit the nail on the head, you did marry for love and you got a super size of that!

I love you Mich!
