It is too frightening to even contemplate, AT! We might of ended up drinking those frothy sweet coffee drinks and dabbing each others mouths with napkins...whew, thank goodness the "hamper mobile" is locked away. I don't know how we would have lived with ourselves after that kind of sordid behaviour!!! Hey, speaking of living with yourself, how's the self-dating experiment going?
Well wii.. We do that already with the napkins so I think the R is progressing... I made a hamburger for lunch today.. and we liked it alot jsyk.. So all is well on the self dating scene, eh ? Yes ?.. Yes..
You two shared your first burger! Wow, that is awesome. It seems the excitement of self-dating just never winds down, AT. What's next, darning socks together. My advice is to keep the magic going, just keep on surprising each other like you're doing! I think this R is a keeper.
Ha ha! You guys are so funny! Self dating! What next?! I think I should try it sometime, but would that mean I was cheating on my H with me?

I've been dating myself for sometime now and the relationship has sort of been becalmed. Any ideas for how to liven up my relationship with myself? I've tried movies, going to the pub, I even broke down in the airport on Monday and bought myself a coffee at Starbucks (they don't have them in Sweden where I'm at). Nothing seems to be working. We seem to have run out of things to say to myself. Help!
Being Me, if you're new to the self-dating game then I think you really have to be careful, carry protection at all times. You just never know when the moment will be right and...well, you know the rest! On those nights when you're alone with yourself, the lights are dim, you're having coffee together (that elixer of romantic adventure!), watching "What Not To Wear" and, as our S's say about their A's, it just happens. Just try not to avoid yourself in the morning, be adults about it. These things do happen! NH, sometimes a R just needs a break or, better still, some really sexy underwear!
Ok, now back to my mundane existence! Yesterday I had to take D to an appointment downtown, so after 3 hours of driving to and from the appointment, I phone my W to see if she is taking D to her gymnastics as she is supposed to. I couldn't get her at home and finally called at work and guess what, she'd forgotten! I told her that I would be dropping D at home and could not take her as I was meeting someone. W agreed to come home and take her. She then calls and says "You know, I made the appointment late so you wouldn't miss work and you could drop her directly at her class" Once again, I said "I cannot drop her there, I am meeting someone at 5:30 pm" She sighed and said, "I"ll come home then" Now, W never mentioned to me that I was supposed to drop her and D didn't bring her uniform. W is so full of sh!t, she just can't take responsibility for forgetting so she has to try and cover it up and put blame on me. If this really was her plan, then how about telling me about it beforehand! But, once more I did hold my ground, and told her I had plans and would not change them. D was most likely a half hour late, thanks to her mom. So, I dropped D at home and from there went to meet a woman friend for coffee (don't say anything, it wasn't Coffee Buddy!).
You did good, Wii! You have to keep those boundaries in place, then she, hopefully, will learn to let you know ahead of time about these appointments she makes. It must be hard on her to deal with the new, improved, powerful, assertive, take-no-bs, Wii! I almost feel sorry for her .... almost!
As for this new R with myself. I dunno if it's going to work. I rather got ticked off at myself, 'cause I fell asleep halfway through a discussion I was having about issues I have, and .... well, the next thing I was waking up, and H was home. Felt a bit guilty, and wondered if he noticed anything, but I don't think he did.

That is the neat thing about it though.. YOU get to sleep with yourself !.. and when we go to sleep.. well unless there is snoring.. it is a sound sleep.. we are very warm and cozy, eh ?
I was thinking about a nice warm fire tonight. .. I think I would like that.. and some Christmas tunes also..
Well, fellow self-daters, I have just returned from dinner out with my family. D13 phoned me and said that they were planning to go out to a restaurant for dinner and wondered whether I would like to come. Can I say no to my kids? No way! During dinner I made no attempt at small talk with W, that never goes very far anyway so I thought "it's 180 time". If she wants to initiate any kind of personal interaction with me she can do so.W was personable and that's all I can ask for. We all did have a pleasant evening, it's always so nice to feel like a family, even if we are one f@cked up family!
