The Long Count Calendar (Sally has conquored Insomnia)
i just asked. i guess it is Lava Britches for me
I'm not a fan of "partner". It sounds too...formal. I hate "mate", too. But I don't have good alternatives, so I usually just point.
"you know...her."
points at wife

Not that there's anything wrong with that ...
Spontaneous, absurd, sea-faring dreamer that balances my pathalogical, deep-thinking, soul-searcher.But that's too much to type when I refer to him in a thread.
Actually, he is the Oscar to my Felix.
Yea Lori! I just read your hubby post.He would hate being called that publicly, but it works for me.
HUBBY!
He would just look at me funny. Maybe more like Fred & Ethel... except I'm definitely more a Lucy type.
Okay... he just gave me a new one to use, which works, but so not appropriate for here. (Longterm F*ckBuddy) LTFB
Isn't V-Day fun? Keep talkin' Sherrie, keep talkin'Love ya, your LTFB
Oh no!!!! He found me! Crap.(definitely hiding behind the ficus now)
He slunk off... he did that just to freak me out. He loves to catch me off guard cause then I'm not in control. Bastard.
(grumble grumble) I'm workin' on it.He also loves the fact that I'm jabbering my head off with you guys instead of focusing it all at him. I think I scare him sometimes.
yeah, you can be dissecting us and not him.

Hi all, sorry to Pop up and run out on you, had to get the token chocolate otherwise my LTFB status would be in jepordy. ;-)
token chocolate? There better be nothin' token about it...

Yeah Sally, and continued sleep to you.
That's wonderful, Sally! I know how awful I feel when I stay up too late, but at least when I do it it's because I want to.
Yea Sally! What finally worked? Or was it just your body getting to the exhaustion point?Um, Kevin... no stinkin' Hershey's for me. Sheesh! I got dark chocolate Toblorone... which is the closest this little town has to imported chocolate.
Yeah, it really disrupts your life to have insomnia. I have it on and off. Once or twice it was so bad I really thought I was going insane, so my doctor gave me Ambien.
Hard-core drug, but it does it's job and it wasn't addictive to me.
i only take ambien on long international flightsman, you are a kept woman sherrie
you are a kept woman sherrie LOL!Oh, if you said that to Jared he would bust a gut. No, he just knows how to keep me happy & purring. Cause when I'm happy.. well, you know...
maybe he keeps your mouth filled with chocolate you won't bug him with your space time continuum theories.hey, what do i know
Charly wrote: "This might seem a bit old fashioned, but then again so is our marriage, but my wife refers to me as Charly. There's never any question as to who she's referrring to."OK now I'm confused. Isn't that your name?
What a novel idea calling somebody by their name, that may catch on someday.
Kevin, I do a lot of listening, A LOT. However, I have learned a great deal about space, time, and how long it takes for her to get those ideas out in the open so she can concentrate on going behind the, how do you guys say it, Go behind the ficus tree.
Sherrie is quite the interesting lady. I have asked a few times, "Do you think other husbands talk to their wives about quantum mechanics, string theory, and what "god" really is? Along with, should we have Subway or Quizno's tonight?"
Personally I just don't think there are that many that do.
I'm a lucky guy to have such a mentally "stacked" chick.
you are lucky jared. you guys have a great gig going. my wife is not so much an intellectual deep thinker as much as a philosophical deep thinker. she loves the game of baseball but does not understand or care about the unique nuances of it. same way with life really. and you guys both seem to have a great sense of humor which is very important to me. nice to meet you jared
Wait. Jared is Sherrie's HUBBY HUBBY HUBBY??Takes me awhile to catch on. :D
Sherrie is Jared's presence here going to inhibit your style?
Altho somehow I doubt that very much, that anyone can inhibit Sherri! Long live all the womun like that!
Now Jared, isn't any NASCAR on? Better go check. You might be missing an important cycle around that circle.
people who watch NASCAR are the same ones intrigued by Pong on Atari when it first came out
That brings up an interesting question, how many people would be inhibited on here if their spouse was on here also?
Welcome Jared, and congrats you two on what seems like a great relationship.

Well, I certainly wouldn't share some of the stories I have about him. *cough cough* He'd KILL me! :D
I abuse Diphenhydramine hydrochloride (Benadryl) when I'm feeling restless. It works.
(I love the two different conversations going on here)Lori, you are awesome. (He recorded the race & then fast-forwarded to the good parts)
Well, it's takes a lot to inhibit me in a comfortable group of people, and Jared has known from the beginning to take me as I am (and me too with him - that's why we get along). He's pretty cool that way. Although, he also takes a perverse glee in poking me on the right buttons just to see me squirm or hiss or even roar. And he just laughs...
Plus, Jared is a Gemini and has multiples of multiple personalities in his head, so he never gets boring. Leos hate being bored. It's simply beneath us!
I have a feeling that I would be a little inhibited also, although I don't really have any bad stories about my wife. But one never knows.

There's always "spouse", instead of hubby. But it makes me think "louse", so I tend not to use it.
