All’s Fair in Love and …..

Sex?

A Woman’s Health Report has recently found that there are a great number of women that simply do not care that a man is in a committed relationship.   In fact according ot some of the women that made the man more enticing because they did not need to worry about the relationship getting more serious.

And the women weren’t just sleeping with the guys whose mates they didn’t know…Yep, according to this study it is all about Desperate Housewives.

Every woman for herself and if the package looks appealing then it doesn’t matter whose name is on the gift tag.

Would You Put a Stripper Pole in Your Bedroom?

Just curious.

You can buy them on Amazon…and some of them are temporary poles…so you could more or less put it up and then take it down before the kids came in to wake you up in the morning.  They even have excercise videos based on pole dancing so you could always appeal to the “good girl” within by reminding her how wonderful exercise is for a healthy body.

But my question is… Read More

Do Unto Others….Doesn’t Always Pan Out

What do you want from your mate?

I have been thinking about this a lot lately because I am as close to shooting God the finger and riding off into the sunset as I have ever been in my adult life.   I feel like not one of my needs is being met and no one cares.  I feel alienated and alone.  And the constant exhaustion has about done me in.

Six hours or less of sleep a day works when you are 18 not when you are 48.  Besides, at 18 I took large doses of amphetamines which is not an option now…

Uh..is it?

As Time & Seasons Change… Anticipation

I mentioned the other day that I am having to try to be more analytical.  There are always things I can analyze and make a solid decision about.  It might be a rifle or muzzleloader that I can dissect and come to a conclusion.  What I want in the weapon.  What I am going to use it for.  Is it for plinking or self defense?

Myself or our marriage, that is  different… Read More

Welcome to November!

It sounds stupid to sayt hat the year is flying by..but…the year is flying by.  Marc’s maple tree (our nod to his deep New England roots) is vivid this year and you almost do a double take when you drive by our house because it definitely does not look Texan.

What’s Up Doc?

So, the last few days I’ve been thinking.

Yeah, me… introspective.  I’m still superficial at this point.  But I guess that’s me to a point.

Superficial….

Always, never wanting to allow myself to be known or even know myself.  Scary thought Marc! Read More

What is Commitment?

So, in the comments the past few days on Starter Marriages (both mine and Marc’s posts) we had some comments that I found odd…One went something like ..”Glad for my starter marriage….Glad for no fault divorce…married now and committed.”

I am not quoting for several reasons…the commenter was not the only one who said those things by comment or email.  But it did raise a question to me.

So what IS commitment?

I Didn’t Know There Was a Name for It!

I swear to you, I must be living in a box or something but I had never heard the term “starter marriage“.  I am not sure how I picked up on it tonight, I was researching something or other and there it was…Starter Marriage.  It even has its own wikipedia page.

Who knew?
