Thanks for the helpful hints.. but the idea of eating swinging male thingies is a bit too suggestive in my current starved state. I'd prefer the real thing. (Darn.. that came out wrong.. I wouldn't really eat eat it) ((Crap, that sounded even worse!))
Uhhh.. never mind.
*hugs*
PS.. like I've said.. you're twistedly brilliant and bring a smile to my face!
It was neat that you called.. and even funny (in a good way) to hear your voice as I was navigating my way through a sea of people with a smile on my face. Wait wait.. there's supposed to be trees and grass.. my crazy dog when you call. A different world, a GAL getting away from my doldrums to do what is important.. share and love life.
Good for you in all you accomplish.. and my favorite female of all those who surround you is lilangel2 with her twinkling eyes and loving smile to her daddy.
*hugs*
you should have put me on speaker phone so all those Northern folks could have heard a real man talk..my twang and drawl would have stopped traffic for sure..
last night i saw a woman in the grocery store, attractive in a self-confident way, dressed only for comfort, riding her cart down the aisle like a young child riding a skooter. she looked so carefree and uninhibited in her happiness. made me smile.

ya know..we could have a field day with this..
I have to agree with M. It definitely made me chuckle. I'm glad you liked the poem. I wrote it after the D was over and I realized I was ok and actually better than I was before.
Have a great weekend.

Thank you for your concern. She was fine at school and participated in a swim meet where she had two best times and met a challenge set by her coach.
What a difference.. from upset and nervous in the AM to animated, enthusiastic and triumphant in the PM.
A friend keeps telling me.. talk to men, talk to men, talk to men... smell pretty, look good, learn their names, learn about them, talk to men (but don't let them know you're practicing!).
It's great listening to you dashing men feel so confident around women. I'm taking notes.
Did you see the write up for 'A Man off All Seasons' in Wednesday's NY Times? I thought of you. I think it's even discounted in some places. It's going on the list of must sees.
Perhaps part of my charm is inadvertent innuendoes I have to extricate myself from.
Writing can be a great release. I was given a sketch pad and told to draw whatever I wanted but to be sure to include anger. The counselor wanted me to get outside of my comfort zone to see what came out. It's amazing how much all aspects of our abilities work to help me cope when tapped.
Maybe instead of a grocery store, I should go to a 'man' place and look confused.
How am I? I hate this (as usual). I'm appalled he drained an account and won't pay for our son's room and board when he has the cash. I recently felt like I could start to initiate a conversation with him and then that happens and I shut down.
Ugh..
I've been busy though with my mom in town. My brother will be staying here til Saturday and my parents will be in the area from Tuesday til Saturday. I took my mom up to see my sons at college (they go to the same university). They had different schedules and each wanted lunch. My mom and I ate very lightly at both lunches and had a good time. Then it was on to an evening swim meet in another part of the state.
It was a day of a lot of activity, zounds of driving and positive energy.
Today I was taking the minivan out to drop off bags for Goodwill only to find I had a flat tire. I went to go change it and got the spare out (it's between the front and back seats). I remembered the tools/jack were buried under 10 heavy oversized contractor's bags full of donations I figured it was AAA time!
Yay for AAA. Sometimes ya just gotta call for help.

This happens to me. But I try SO hard to not shut down. Usually what is happening and what *actually* upset me are 2 different things. Hard to separate sometimes.
At times though, shutting myself off from H is what I need. Kinda like a bandaid, protecting my wound until it heals up again.
