If I Had It to do Over
It sounded like a good idea at the time, but . . .
If I had it to do over again I wouldn't ask my husband to be in the delivery room with me when my daughter was born. I don't know what I was thinking. I knew he was squeamish when it came to blood, and I knew he would feel completely out of his element. But, there are shiny medical instruments and other gadgets he could play with, in the room, so, I thought he would be fine.
Boy, was I wrong!
The day went something like t

A Fish Out of Water
Thanks to my middle-agedness I no longer belong in a music store. I’m truly a fish out of water, a dinosaur, a relic in these outlets of modern day pop culture.

I want to answer your question. Your husband requires far more maintenance! I'd say 'duh' here, but I don't want one of those cyber spats. Anyway, I heard that a constant dose of the chemical ESPN will help alleviate many of his 'guy' symptoms.

Aw Victoria - that is like...so sad! If you want I'll be your friend and you can be mine and then everybody here can be each other's friends! BTW - I can't quite grasp this "blah-blah wants to be your friend" bit. In as far as I'M concerned, we're all friends in the cyber sense. To the best of my knowledge, which doesn't say much, a couple of people I requested to be my friends actually refused. So now I'm worried that maybe they've actually spoken to people who know about me and hence the refusal. Oh well - can't please all the people all the time or some of the people part of the time or part of the people some of the time... Forgetaboutit...
Don't know if you've noticed but you and I look exactly alike! I mean, have you noted the similarities in your photo and my photo in this forum? What are the odds, huh?
Just a few blah-blah's...
