Yep, thank N, good point. I hope I did not look angry this morning. That is also part of my problem, I think I look that way all the time, or so I have been told in the past!
However, recently, getting "me" back physically and now on the road mentally, I have been told I smile a lot more. Those braces will payoff before I die!

I think all of us men struggle w/ being "intimate" without sex, dont you?

BTW, make a conscious effort to smile a lot around your W. Not goofy, but think of it as a goal. I think that might do wonders. I bet she'll feed of that. You'll look, more calm, happy, relaxed, and attractive/fun! Doesn't your picnic make you want to smile anyway?

You too Nomo. You are about as intense as they get. Keep me in mind and smile at the thought of me trying to smile at your suggestion! Some of our personality traits were like looking in a mirror!
BTW, anyone who reads this, Nomo is everything you would think he is by his posts, logical, good listener, excellent at seeing the big picture....ladies in San Diego and Orlando, I leave the looks part to you, but he is definitely getting in shape!

Just pointing out that do it around W if you are not like you were w/ me!!!
Also, on the handsome part, my ______phobic part of me wont allow me to call another guy handsome! But was trying to point out that you look good!

Had a decent evening. Met kids and W for dinner. Was feeling kind of weird, like a big knot in my stomach (anxiety) about what??? W leaving town, no call all day (trying not to focus on that)
End up calling her to tell her I am close to home and if she needs anything from Target cuz I have to return some things. She does and says she is not cooking tonight. Normally I would give her the 3rd degree on why not, like "what the H have you been doing all day?" kinda thing.
So we meet at Chili's w/ kids and have a good dinnger. Go home, usual stuff, baths, movie, backrub, leave. She is volunteering at our kids school next year so is going to get oriented tomorrow. I hope she finds some "self respect" by doiong this. I know stuff like this makes her happy as she feels productive. Still amazing to me that the most important job in the world does not fulfill women (being a mom) and they need more. Trade ya! You go out and deal with a bunch of schmucks every day, meet w/ people you dont want to meet, fight traffic 2 ways and generally waste your life on the road. That is SO much fun. Sorry venting!!!
Pt is, I actually know what its like to stay home, worked from home for 2 years and given my nature, did EVERYTHING around the house and worked. So when people tell me I have no clue what its like to take care of a house with little kids, BS, I do to and would trade in a second. But thats just me. TO each his own.
Wow, I feel better getting that out, where did that come from???
I am sure I have plenty more of those little ranting and raving tirades in me so stay tuned!
