HD,

I was about to reply to Geek's "sex is FREE" post when I saw yours and cracked up

Unfortunately, too much of it hits home for LD me. Perhaps it's my long ago Calvinist roots, work before play and all that?

Speaking of frosting, I guess I always thought of sex like dessert. The problem is that in my moralistic mind, and with my clean-plate upbringing, dinner (the basic needs) always came first and dessert was entirely dispensable, in fact maybe even too indulgent to have very often.

Now I'm trying to live by a new motto, metaphorically speaking: "Life is short: eat dessert first".

"Sex is FREE" is another motto I'm tattooing on my brain.

We're going on vacation soon, and I'm taking to heart the various HD comments that a sexless vacation is not a vacation at all.
