After twelve years of marriage, ironically we decided to make life more uncomfortable. Once a month for a year, we took on fairly minor challenges -- like stand-up comedy, panhandling, and being handcuffed to each other for a day -- to have something new in common, but we didn't have much of an idea what we'd discover about ourselves or our marriage.
This book tells the stories of the challenges (Jason having to hang out with hippies, Diane having to shoot guns), explores a weird way of getting into middle age, and hopefully has something to say about how all of us, single or joined-at-the-hip, end up dealing with who we've become, for better and worse...or half-naked shopping for tequila and toilet paper at Trader Joe's.
