Yes, yes, I know there was a movie titled something similar to this. But Something was one of my favorite Beatles song. so I’ll go with Something about Marye. And sometimes we all need to be able to look back and remember those good things about our spouse.

As I was on the web with Marye’s new laptop while keeping our littlest princess company I came across an article on a news site that alerted me.  In the day with a 70% divorce rate, someone took the time to research a long forgotten secret.  Duh!

I like my new laptop.
There, I have admitted it, o.k.?  It has a lot going for it…it is red, which is like my second favorite color in the entire known universe..Burnt orange is my first..but I don’t think they make laptops in burnt orange.

 
An this is seriously all I have to say on the matter….
For this week.  I think.  Maybe….
As you can see there are a lot of ingredients that go into an orgasm. So many people are squeamish about their sexuality that it is a wonder that anyone has them at all.  Personally I would like to see a drive through… “Yes, I will take a four minute orgasm with a side of …”
Never mind.   Just seriously, stop being so serious!  O.k.? 

 
I was online this morning and ran across an article that caught my attention:
I usually turn off when I see Oprah mentioned but decided to read on.   Here is part of the article:

 
Do remember when you were first married? You were inseparable and you were usually holding hands wherever you went as a couple. You spent as much time together as you could. She would be at your softball or hockey game cheering you on. You even went shopping at the mall or grocery store so you could be around her.

 
So I was thinking this morning, Wow we have had some great times. Sometimes I have to think back to a different time and remember fondly some of our memories together as a couple.
There are to many to mention now. There are things we did that just happened, like the Sprite soda incident before we were married.

Here are 10 benefits I get from being married to Kerri, rapid fire style, in no particular order and by no means exhaustive

A full social calendar
Good food
Sex
Laughs
Encouragement when I’m down
A thousand touches that say “I love you”
More good food
Amazing kids
Someone to be impulsive with
Some one to grow old with

One of the inevitable consequences about being married for any length of time, is that you have more and more collective memories, and things from the present are increasingly likely to bring up that shared past.

Tonight Kerri and I had a date. Nothing fancy. After eleven years of or marriage and three children sometimes is means dropping the kids off at Grandma’s and heading to Penn Station for a sub. Of course we talked about the kids a little (Samantha finished first grade this week – W00t!), but we also covered work, home, politics and money.

I know, I know… not a very romantic date. But a date nonetheless, because after all, what is a date? At this stage of life, …read more
