My friend complained that her husband wasn't romantic anymore, one year into their marriage. I commented that I wasn't a terribly romantic person, so I couldn't really expect N.A. to be romantic.
"Well, of course you're not romantic!" She laughed.
I arched an eyebrow in question.
"You can't be romantic-- you're a scientist!!"
Oh. Glad we straightened that one out.
True, my idea of a romantic gesture is for N.A. to turn off his blackberry so we can watch a movie vibration-free.
But surely some true romantics--who happen to be of the scientific persuasion-- are out there?
Right?
