Valentine anecdote from the bookstore yesterday...
I'm cashiering and this 70-ish looking couple comes up to buy a couple of books. The man runs his credit card through the reader, and the 'approval' message appears.

"Oh, good." he says. "They approved me."
"They don't know you like I do." his wife said, perfectly deadpan.

I literally laughed out loud. That made my day. :D

2. They must have a great marriage.
That kind of intimate joking suggests love, trust, friendship, respect and total comfort with one another. I wish them the best.

3. They were a cute couple.
I agree with your assessment, Aristus - they seemed completely at ease with one another. The look the guy gave me was priceless.
