I Should Write a Book
If you've been in a relationship for a while and you want to discuss The Future, a good time to do this is right after your significant other has just watched his beloved team get crushed in the Super Bowl, downed several cheap vodka at the local watering hole while you get hit on by creepy dudes, and then climbed into bed to wait for you to finish drunk-dialing your sister 14 time zones away. If he doesn't pretend to be asleep while you blather on about babies and weddings, then he's a keeper.
