I have a news flash for you; it’s OK to look forward to some time away from the one you love. In fact it’s honest, even downright healthy to do so. I have another news flash for you; what you’re NOT supposed to be is downright giddy with joy and anticipation at the prospect of
You are completely and utterly wrong … I think. I had this girlfriend once, and I mean she was a girl who was really just a friend. She worked for me. She was (and still is, I presume) 12 years younger than me, but she was as smart and funny and cute as any woman
Now I’m really depressed. It’s not you, it’s me… really. And since I’m not breaking up with you, you can believe I’m telling the truth. I’m not a dreamer and I’m not an idiot. I am fully aware that meeting the family and surviving a garage sale together are moments as common and integral to

Do you know what’s sexy? Well, a lot of things, but definitely one thing in particular is a group of otherwise responsible and committed women, beyond velvet rope age, at the bar or lounge of a respectable establishment with a twinkle in each eye and a martini in each hand. You know me. You know
Much of the time our blog consists of an event, large or small from your life, followed by my slightly-off-center male point of view in reply. For a man, I think I’m pretty respectful of your gender. For a man, as brutally honest as I can be, I think I also cut your gender a
For what it’s worth (and if you’re smart, that will be “not much”) I am extremely impressed. You’re in love. You’re engaged. You’re willfully getting married.
