This was neither easy nor fun.ĭay 8: I used a candle lighter to burn a printout of my notes in the bathroom. We’re awesome.ĭays 6 and 7: I wrote my private notes here in a draft and just deleted them for publication. At least for today!ĭay 3: Star Trek glass from Burger King. I wanted to complain about it and dump it all on my wife, but I took the injunction to not be negative as literally as I could, and held my tongue. I, alas, do not have twenty grand stashed away for a boat that I can dip into to help make her dream come true.ĭay 1: The day I picked this up from the library was one of the hardest, most discouraging days of work I had all year.

I guess that’s to be expected: my life isn’t scripted, nor does it have a movie studio’s budget. My only frame of reference for ideas was the character in the movie, and at times I felt a little bad that my gestures weren’t as dramatic as his. So it was hard at times, but I think my wife appreciated it, so it was absolutely worth it. Just in the last forty days, some of the things that made it harder for me to do this included: a kid got sick and threw up seven times in one morning, my wife and I were taken to court (where we did not do well), I got sick (twice–once during the first week of the dare, and again during the last week), our refrigerator broke down and got repaired, work and other responsibilities kept us apart all day and up very late, the lock on my car door broke (and the dealer didn’t even fix it right!), the battery in our van died, and a motley assortment of other irritations, distractions, and adversities made their merry way into the path of my earnest scheduling. In the movie, all that stood in the way of their perfect romance was their fading feelings.

(Update: the book’s web site actually has the full list.) You just need to pick up your own copy. Here are some notes on what happened, but since I don’t want to ruin the book (or infringe on copyrights!), I won’t list the dares here. I couldn’t publish this until after the whole 40 days, because my wife reads this blog and I wanted it to be a surprise. I put the book on my hold list at the library. After seeing the movie Fireproofwith my wife recently, I wanted to do the love dare in it for my wife.
