    On our wedding night we left the dance about 1am. We went back to our apartment, I sat down in my recliner with my wedding dress still on, and my new husband sat in front of the computer still in his tux. I commented that other than the attire it was the same as any other night.

          Do they count time you spend sleeping next to each other?

              Does that statistic include time at work to? If it does then DUH! If it is strictly speaking of time when you are at home with your family that's a downer.

                If you saw the sort of spouses available in my area, you'd understand why.

                      Yeah, I thought of that.  My computer would still win, but I'd imagine that is uncommon.

                        Let's see... if you have a full-time job (8 hrs per day) that involves sitting at the computer the whole time, and you sleep 8 hrs (and those 8 hrs don't count as spouse time), then in order to spend the same amount of time with your spouse, you have to not do anything at all the entire rest of the day that's not with your spouse. And that doesn't even count commute time. Makes a case for working from home, eh? ;)

                          Are you sure that's the real reason? ;P
