Well, I discussed the whole polyamory issue with an intelligent guy on one of the dating sites and I decided that I don't like it. The reason I don't like it is that it reminds me of when I was in junior high and they made us play cooperative games where nobody loses. The problem with those games is that nobody wins either. IOW, it's just another form of "settling" or being kind of chicken-sh*tted IMO.
Disregarding my bunny's momentary fall into a bucket of rice pudding, I have decided that my main problem in life currently is that my non-sexual lioness is "discouraged". The symptom of her discouragement is that I am broke and the fact that I am broke is having a bad effect throughout the zoo. Like my cow is way behind on her Xmas shopping and my bunny is overdue for her bi-monthly expensive dye job and my monkey is showing an inclination towards using dating as a means of free entertainment/fun. Usually what I do when I need to get my act together financially is make it into sort of a fun project/learning experience with an end goal in mind but I'm having difficulty coming up with a goal and with finding a fun "method". For instance, when I had the goal of buying a house I used the method in the book "Your Money or Your Life" to save the money. If I could find a new interesting "method" I could make do with an arbitrary goal OR if I could come up with an exciting goal than I could make do with some more boring method.
