The year was 2006. The day was November 7. Two days after our wedding. And we were heading to our honeymoon in Australia for three blissful weeks. We were flying United, and it was the first time either of us were flying first class.

As we sat there in our giddy newly married state…champagne in one hand, warm chocolate chip cookie in the other – our seats fully reclined, with our noise canceling headphones, watching our own personal movie tablets they had provided for the flight, Adam looked at me and said with his dimpled smile: “I love you.” So I dreamily looked back over to him and said “I love you too.” To which he awkwardly responded: “Oh, well, I mean – I do love you. But I said…I love United.” #Shmadum
