i go out and meet as many women as i can. workout like a mad man. go to alot of ball game. read. sit on the beach. run the boardwalk, have random sex(just kiddin, well at least sometimes i do), sit by the pool, go to sleep early, watch tv, hang with friends, go out with nice looking girls, drink, eat at great restaurants and drink great wine, work, coach basketball, did i say have random sex yet,
god after looking at my list i cant believe i even miss her you know what come to think of it the hell with her.
I hear ya, sometimes I think my H is actually resentful of how full my life is now. All of my 180's have been improvements. I am fearful that he may be resentful that I did not do it when we were together daily. His life is crappy while my life seems clearer. Is it possible that he 180's and GAL can backfire? Should I be wallowing and solemn, lonely and remorseful?

Join Netflix, go to the library, join a swing dance class, go to a local non denominational church for separated folks, take a cooking class, backpack across Europe, redecorate, plan a yard sale, bake for friends, oh yeah I am a mom. Those are probably dorky mom things to do.

That idea of introducing horses into your chick lit novel is a stroke of sheer genius. What do chicks like? Horses! Horses and guys, in some combination. A few adorable kittens, a faithful dog...it's perfect. I'm trying to figure out how the horses could teach the movie star guy humility. That's a tough one. Maybe by bucking him off the side of a 10,000 foot ridge. He saves himself by grabbing onto a jagged rock, but not before a yucca has unfortunately blinded him in both eyes. Emergency eye operation must be performed immediately. Heroine is a vet, rather than a people doctor, but by reading up in some old medical books she's been storing in the outhouse for toilet paper, and sterilizing a few pieces of silverware, heroine is able to perform miracle eye operation. Gorgeous movie star guy has to sleep in heroine's camp bed to recover completely. She spoons him hot Campbell's soup and other delicacies, while cooing ancient Buddhist poetry in his ear. He renounces meaningless gym bunny sex forever, learning to love the simplicity of this peaceful mountain retreat.
I love it Delia! Make the heroine a modern Elizabeth Bennet type. At first, our heroine horse trainer cannot stand the snooty movie star and brings him down to an earthly level. He is haughty, too big for his britches. She is not ashamed to get her knickers dirty which can be juxtaposed against the Hollywood actress who is all flash and no substance. She gets her work out on fake machinery instead of real meaningful work that our heroine endures daily.
PS. I love my elliptical so no dis there.

Yes! I hadn't even thought about the flashy, snooty, and devious actress--a person who should include every trait of every OW on this board. In fact, it is this actress who causes the near-fatal accident to gorgeous dude: for, thinking that our sassy Elizabeth Bennet heroine (as played by Jennifer Ehle) is planning to ride her usual horse--devious actress slips a burr under its saddle--little suspecting that gorgeous movie star and heroine will SWITCH horses at the last minute.
Lots of scenes of dirty knickers, contrasted with actress's silken undies, contrasted with the southernmost ends of horses. This is looking more like a MAJOR film--pretty arty, big budget--so there could be like some, um, Battleship Potemkin kinds of scenes here and there, with a baby carriage rolling down the mountain. Need something with PUNCH for Oscar consideration.
Yes! Pride & Prejudice set in the Rockies. Just imagine the great wardrobe. But is Ponygirl's H the good guy or the Wickham cad? Hard call. I would hope that he redeem himself of his pride but I also want to see him banished. Sorry. Wife fantasy.

Will find out more about about the husband character after this weekend.
This weekend is our 3 day Retrouvaille retreat. Afraid husband might slip into character, the cowardly, fearful type who'd rather slink away, "buy" his way out of marriage and hope he can live with himself afterwards. Life in denial.
Cowgirl here has already realized she needs to pull herself up by her own bootstraps. And what good boots they are . . . .
Keep your thoughts for me this weekend, that my husband can find the man he is supposed to be at this weekend. Let him be my hero, so I can re-write this book.
