Last night I came up to bed after watching about 10 minutes of some stupid show on TV. She was in bed, too, by the time I brushed my teeth, etc. We chatted about nothing in particular when the phone rang -- my son, needing me to e-mail him an assignment he had completed on our computer. I got up to go downstairs to do this, and my W said, (trying to be funny or sarcastic or facetious or something), "It's a good thing we weren't having sex."

Huh?

So I said, "yeah, it's a good thing." By the time I was done emailing and got back to bed, she was asleep.

She seems to be bringing up the sex thing -- without ANY prompting by me -- more often. I take this as an indication that it is on her mind. I imagine that she is just trying to figure out where I am on the issue, since I haven't brought it up on my own in a while. Under the "normal marital sadism" category, I guess I get a bit of satisfaction in knowing that she's unsure of the status right now.
