OK, but the only way you get that kinda food here is if it is in a microwavable little box. Hope you don't mind eating right out of the little black plastic plates. :unsure:
Awwe, aren't you sweet....but, not to worry -- I wouldn't dream of having you go to all that trouble on my account. :)
Can anyone post for these lovelorn folks the lyrics of "The Pina Colada Song"?
Lessee, now, I've been married for 30 years to a wonderful man. Looking back, the first thing I noticed about him was his industry. Mr. Garden was always doing something. He worked hard, in the garden at FLO, at the industrial laundry where he was a supervisor at 19, everywhere. He was frugal but not stingy. I think he was shocked when I told him this was the first thing I noticed about him.
Second was his unfailing kindness. His compassion. His intelligence. His love of God. His sense of humor. And yeah, all the physical stuff too.
That said, Tom Strange is on the money. You be you. Be happy. Have something to say besides "live long and prosper." (that last was my opinion, but others may think it's perfect).
I have no idea how women think...I am totally lost when it comes to trying to understand the female gender.
I am inclined to agree with Tom Strange when he says to simply be yourself...trying to change who you are to please a woman is a lesson that most guys learn in their early years...(hopefully)...it don't work.
Most women I have met, claim that they value a good sense of humor, honest communication skills, a flair for being romantic, a decent paycheck and a big...well, you know.
"sheesh.. the person is all that.. but what if this, what if that.. they're friggin fifteen years older.. what if I have to bury their sad carcass.. what if they get sick.. what if I have to take care of them.. what if.."
"what if they're fifteen years younger.. how am I gonna keep up with them.. what if I get sick..what if this, what if that.."
What if.
Life is so damn short for anybody to begin with..
I hope this means something to somebody..
Sometimes.. what I think some people want is not more than an illusion..
Alright, but you pull mine first.....if you dare....
Dove, plastic cups that can go straight to the trash when we're done would be too much of a bonus to even consider! But, then again, if we stick to beer, there's no cups needed. I don't need no stinkin' cup to enjoy a good brewski.
Seth, :P Yes, indeedy, some women do.
I think there's a je ne sais quo - a chemistry or connection, if you will, that can't be explained also required. When that's there some of the items on one's list can be adjusted rather easily and yet, it is entirely possible for someone to have all the qualities on one's list and still be the wrong person. Then, people who are perfect together for many years grow apart.....

Sometimes I feel like going off on a cursing exhibition..
Christ.. a person asks, and pleads for something.. then when it crosses one's path. it isn't good enough..
*)*&%^$#@..
Well.. I guess.. it's just the human condition..

Hamm - I'm not sure I know where you're going with all that...
Why not just find a nice squirrel and go store some nuts...?

I have a nice squirrel here, thank you.
:)
It's just.. I have this curse that follows me. Somehow, I can see both sides of all of this here..
It's not really that pleasant..

Soooo... do tell?
I wonder if I even want to know... :unsure:
Dare I ask?
Are you wanting to pose the question...
What do men want in women?

You ask.. you make the list, check it twice..
and low and behold.. the list incarnate waltzes through the door..
"naw, not what I wanted.."
The wonderful lady in my life right now.. we're as different as day and night.
maybe people need a different kind of list.
1. Not an axe murderer..
2. Alive..
3. ....

The "man song"
(Ms. Baxter, forgive me.. )
I know that I'm confused..
First I'm happy, then I'm blue..
I don't think that I have changed
to the list I find I'm chained..
but you look at me and say
who the h*ll are you?
I'm a dad, I'm a cad,
I really think I'm going mad
Yesterday I was a hero,
today I find I'm zero..
yesterday I was quite neat,
now today I'm just chopped meat..
in June I'm over the hill
but in July I fit the bill..
