Hubby and I are often so disconnected throughout the day, each going in different and haphazard directions, that the evening is the one sure time of the day that we know we can spend time together. We do sit on our big comfy couch and watch TV, but there's lots of snuggling and chatting going on during the commercials.

When there's nothing on TV, we play dominoes or card games together. Now that I'm spending 3-4 days (and nights) at my brother's apartment, we're very careful not to schedule anything else in on the nights when we ARE together at home, even if it's just watching TV. It's being together that we both cherish.
