Hehe. It's a looong story. Short version: girl meets boy, they spend 7 hours talking on a picknick blanket and fall in love.

OK, so no pictures. I'm happy that this is working out so nicely for you. But I have a feeling that 'any' dessert may have resulted in the same activities, no? I hope this romance continues to grow and grow. I don't think we've had anyone getting married here since I've been around.



It's hard to work when you are in love. Don't worry... Your boss understands.

Nope, no pictures Yeah, the dessert was just a nice touch, I'm sure it would have happened anyway. By the way, there was some couch throwing involved . He sure is strong!

In my cup: third cappuccino. I'm feeling a bit like a zombie.

He threw you on the couch, or he threw the couch ? Which date is it ? (I mean first, second, third... ?). It is important to understand the milestones.

Oops, maybe 'couch throwing' wasn't the best way to phrase it He 'threw' me. Like I said, the guy is strong. He can pick me up and carry me around, no problem

It's the third date, the first one lasted 5 hours and the second one 7 hours. This one ... 9 hours Can you see the pattern there But we emailed and texted a lot in between dates.

That always impressed me a lot too. I like that. Very Cro-Magnon somehow, and totally in contradiction with the "non-owning" thing, but it has its charm (and utility when drunk )

Extra points for 'utility.'

There is a time to be civilized and a time to be a cave man. 'The Renaissance Man' knows when to be which. To be able to cook a fine meal and recite a good poem, or wrassle a 'gator and protect the cave. Too much of one or the other just will not do.

Excuse me now... I have to go an cook a 'gator. Or was I supposed to compose a sonata for it? (Will a Rap work?) If I hadn't killed it, I could have shared my Bombay Sapphire with it... My bad.

Kentucky avenue, but the mood is similar.

Big waves and orange flag. I will try my swim anyhow (1 km) than play with daughter in the surf.
Spoiler:
Eddie graces buick got 4 bullet holes in the side
Charlie delisle sittin at the top of an avocado tree
Mrs stormll stab you with a steak knife if you step on her
Lawn
I got a half pack of lucky strikes man come along with me
Lets fill our pockets with macadamia nuts
Then go over to bobby goodmansons
And jump off the roof

Hilda plays strip poker
And her mamas across the street
Joey navinski says she put her tongue in his mouth
Dicky faulkners got a switchblade
And some gooseneck risers
That eucalyptus is a hunchback
Theres a wind up from the south
Let me tie you up with kite string
And i'll show you the scabs on my knee
Watch out for the broken glass, put your shoes and socks
On and come along with me

Lets follow that fire track
I think your house is burnin down
The go down to the hobo jungle and kill some rattle
Snakes with a trowel
We'll break all the windowa in the old anderson place
And steal a bunch of boysenberrys
And smear em on our face
I'll get a dollar from my mamas purse
And buy that scull and crossbones ring
And you can wear it around your neck on an old piece of
String

Then we'll spit on ronnie arnold
And flip him the bird
And slash the tires on the school bus
Now don't say a word
I'll take a rusty nail and scratch your initials on my arm
And i'll show you how to sneak up on the roof of the
Drugstore

Take the spongs from your wheelchair
And a magpies wings
And tie em to your shoulders and your feet
I'll steal a hacksaw from my dad
And cut the braces off your legs
And we'll bury them tonight in the cornfield

Put a church keey in your pocket
We'll hop that freight train in the hall
And we'll slide down the drain all the way
To new orleans in the fall

Very true. Sometimes a wife/gf/so will want a shoulder to cry on, a ear to dump her woes in to... some times she wants to be tossed about in entertaining fashion... sometimes defended... sometimes charmed... strange being this female is, but so totally worth the effort!

So only Beppe doesn't wear wedding ring because of the inconvenience? Everyone else wears it almost 24/7?

My dad doesn't. Neither does my brother-in-law. They said it is uncomfortable. Wash the dish, wash the clothes, take a shower, use any tool... taking it off and then get it on several times a day is surely not convenient.

I tend to be as simple as possible. No watch, no necklace, no bracelet, no earrings, no piercing, I even feel uneasy to bring wallet and cell along.

The only time I have taken mine off for anytime since getting married 15 years ago is for a play I am in where the director states my character would not be wearing a ring of any kind. Its a pure gold band so washing dishes, swimming, etc wont bother it.


BUT if I worked in with machines in factory I would likly have to take it off for safety. And if i had to remove it every day I would probably loose it. Might get a tattoo in its place then!
