Making It

When some people get together and fall in love…they make babies. Other people, when they connect and take the plunge, they make cakes and databases.

No, I’m not kidding and such was the case last night.

Wednesday night is the official date night of Artie and Jillian. It’s a special time that they set aside just for spending good ol’ fashioned quality time together. But instead of what would define any couple/serious relationship date night (i.e. movies, making out, romantic walks, making out, dinner, and making out), Jillian wanted to make an Access database.

Now I realize that some of the readers out there would probably think, “What a crappy way to spend date night!” I’m going to have to stop you right there and say that I disagree. If a woman came up to me and said, “Hey you sexy computer beast. I need you to work your magic and help make me a baby database.”

A single tear roll down my cheek and I would whisper one word: Shibby.

What better way to work on your couple team skillz than to design a database together. Not to mention romantic. Just fire up your iTunes, dim the lights, snuggle up, and a get your Access on by the soft glow of a laptop screen. That’s what I like to call a “win-win situation”. Besides, they don’t call databases relational for nothing. However in this case, it would a one-to-one relationship. Unless of course you are Mormon…that would be a one-to-many relationship.

And how do you wrap up an evening of couple computer work? Bake a cake or two. Bonus.

It was a b-e-a-utiful thing.
