we're in the midst of Romance Awareness Month.  Now's as good a time as any to show that special someone you appreciate them.  Over time, it's easy to get lazy and assume that person knows what you don't say or show (that you love them).  I personally think the title is rather funny- I imagine people living with a sort of tunnel vision, doing their own thing, when all of a sudden, there's some sort of revelation that, "I'm married?  There's more to life than just working and coming home and collapsing?  Dating used to be fun, and now I can't remember the last time we went out..."  and I imagine the person freaking out and rediscovering all of the fun things that had been forgotten.  Either that, or some geeky student who's so involved in their papers and theories and such that they hadn't even thought of going out with someone, and all of a sudden, they realize that a good number of their friends have 'romances' going on.  So, yeah, let the sparks fly. 

Also, if you go out to eat even occasionally, you might want to consider going Tuesday, August 29th.  Restaurants nationwide are participating in Restaurants for Relief 2, a promotion where they donate a portion of their sales to Share our Strength, a program helping rebuild after Hurricane Katrina .
