That's a good idea, Nop. I'll definitely consider it.
Lil, moretocome, chrom, yep yep yep. I'm a little concerned about the tickets selling out, but I bet my buddy could sell them at the venue if I ended up not going.
This is more about recovery from NGism than it is about seeing the band or even my friend. I actually expected that the short discussion this morning would be rather benign as she formulated her strategy to reassert her control. Sheesh...I make her out to be some sort of control freak, and oh...poor little victim me. Maybe she'll simmer down a bit if she has some time to think about this. Maybe not.
I do agree with CE that we need to look at the budget again and see if there is a way to restructure it so that my salary can be segregated and go toward college fund and other "my kids" expenses. Makes sense.
And yes, moretocome, the sex is basically non-existent. We ML in the middle of May, and since then, nada. Her shows of affection have pretty much dropped off, too, with the occasional nominal hug, caress, kiss, except for the usual goodbye and hello kiss. Something Martelo said to cemar last week or so about sexual aversion, and, over on the NG site about the sexual moratorium, and generally, "why would you want to have sex with someone who doesn't want to have sex with you" has been hitting me hard lately.
Despite my initial reaction to just drop the idea of the trip, I think that pushing forward on it will be good for me, and maybe, for my marriage.
