How to Love your Woman Better part arguing well, part II

I don’t think tbV and i are there yet, in fact i know we’re not. It’s definitely a work in progress and there is definitely progress because we are working on it. We argue a lot better (in terms of nicer, friendlier, love-lier) than we used to when we were going out, but we can do even better. But there are definitely some principles we can share from what we do take care to do. [...]

botswanan reflections: a couple to follow

so blah blah blah botswana trip... we went up with our friends dreadlock mike (dreads) and nancy the twin (twin) and two of their friend couples and i could possibly blog a lot about living with all three for the week... but the one i want to briefly write about is a couple who were mike and nancy's groomsman and bridesmaid respectively... a physio for the sharks and a high level manager type product control [...]

'raped' as a fun catch phrase, tweeting tragedy instead of assisting…

what next? leaving the old people outside for the coyotes to finish them off...? sounds far fetched maybe, but i have just been thoroughly revolted by what i have just read [and i know in this day and age we can get mildly upset and tut tutty and each-to-their-own-device but maybe it's time for people to stand up and SHOUT WILDLY AGAINST THIS KIND OF FILTH...] and we need to draw a line... it started [...]

the double tease

so i recently was on an orange river trip with a bunch of youth okes linked to a southern suburbs church youth group... two of the guys on the trip wore t-shirts (which i addressed with them both - one directly and one a little more indirectly cos i couldn't remember who had been wearing it) which distressed me a lot [1] cartoon picture made up of two blocks - in the first block a [...]

for the sake of the chores part ii

ah bless (as they would say in the englandited kingdom) it seems the thing about not being able to read tone from an email (so don't ever have an argument via email - go live, really - meaning received quickly becomes not meaning sent) applies to blogs too yesterday's bermuda time triangle in marriage thort which i had intended as a light-hearted whimsical tongue-in-cheek adrian mole/adrian plass type "where's-the-time" montage was interpreted as a serious [...]

for the sake of the chores

so i have been married for about 14 months yesterday and i still completely highly recommend it if it is to the right person - it is not always easy - it is sometimes really hard - but it is incredible and the pros definitely outbeat-up-and-leave-bleeding-behind-the-shed the cons... and i love the beautiful Val - really feel privileged and lucky and amazed that i have someone like her in my life... yay. the one thing [...]

what is the difference between a t-spoon and a sock?

the answer is nothing, there is no difference well, besides the obvious of course - i mean one is generally made out of metal and oh wait, teaspoons are also generally made out of metal... back to no main differences altho imagine a sock made out of teaspoons, that would look pretty cool - kinda like a chain mailish type of sock - protection against 'the arrow that got away' or something - but it [...]
