The only couple I ever broke up with was my parents… And that lasted about three weeks, until I begged my way back into their good graces. I’ve never had a “relationship” with any other couple. You know I’ve never liked this relationship of yours: the bread-winner wife/unemployed husband-with-too-much time-on-his-hands-couple. Yes, I’ll admit that I [...]
I’ve never been big on PDA. When I’m hanging out at a bar with my girl, she knows I’m interested. I’ll throw my arm around her, I’ll touch her leg, and I’ll rub her back… But shove my tongue down her throat in front of a bunch a beer drinking slobs? No thanks. I’d rather [...]

The roadblocks are everywhere… The bad memories have lingered… Odds are that you’ll be experiencing the same old pain in a plethora of new ways once this thing has played out…. But still. There’s something to be said for [...]
This may sound crazy, but I think I’m jealous. “Taking stock of your life,” is far from the worst idea I can think of. Purging yourself of old belongings sounds pretty damn healthy to me. I’m in no position to move right now, but if I could, I… might. You are aware that the act [...]
Maybe we should start at the end – mainly because I don’t know what to tell you about the beginning of your plight. As you’ve already sideways-referenced, if it weren’t for bad luck, you wouldn’t have any luck at all. This is only sexy when it’s part of a blues song… When it happens in [...]
