I remember my brother broke his arm in school, and the teacher on playground duty figured it out in about a second but of course he was all of 9 and freaking out so she just held him in her arms and whispered soothing things to him until they could get my mom to come get him. When she handed him off to my mom she she gave him a big kiss on the cheek and told him he'd be OK. Now, she'd be imprisoned for caring for an injured child. This PC stuff is insane.
I know it's fashionable to blame food additives for ADHD and so on, but my own theory is that parents who did way too many drugs has a part in it. Every child I've ever dealt with with any of those disorders, their parents have admitted to drug use earlier in their lives. Odd how rock stars with heavy drug habits also have messed up kids as do many athletes who abused steroids. I'm not telling anyone what to do with their lives, but some things do have consequences.

There are so many good ones...
25, not nearly as bad as I might have thought...
Men! Anal is best enjoyed if you remember the "ations": Preparation, Communication & Lubrication. See if you can find a copy of Anal Pleasure and Health which goes into detail on having a painless, pleasuring experience.
Freedom to me is a lovely day, no worries and a good book for about three hours. Not that I consider time with hubby or work any kind of burden, but it's nice to just relax and lose yourself in a book for a bit.
Sad moments in movies and books always get the waterworks going. I loved the movie UP! but there's one scene in there that just shatters your heart...
"I'm not like everybody else" by the Kinks
Give me a nice chilled glass of Gewürtztraminer every time....of course I won't be able to drink any until about next July or so, but I do love the sweet dessert wines.
A summer storm after a dry spell, I don't know why, but it's something that gets me going. I love the way the air smells through the screens, and even though it's raining, it's still 70 degrees....
With Halloween out of the way, Christmas is on it's way....so I submit this, the greatest rock and roll Christmas song ever written:
"When I was small I believed in Santa Claus
Though I knew it was my dad
And I would hang up my stocking at Christmas
Open my presents and I'd be glad
But the last time I played Father Christmas
I stood outside a department store
A gang of kids came over and mugged me
And knocked my reindeer to the floor
They said:
Father Christmas, give us some money
Don't mess around with those silly toys.
We'll beat you up if you don't hand it over
We want your bread so don't make us annoyed
Give all the toys to the little rich boys"
Just a sample of the genius that is Ray Davie and the Kinks.
If you're going gay, it's a likely permanent change, so I'd want someone that'd be fun to be with, smart, as well as sexy. Ever since I saw The Proposal, Sandra Bullock would do nicely....
Hubby's good for just holding me and soothing me until I've cried it out, then he'll want to know what if anything he can do to help, which I love because sometimes I just need the holding, and sometimes I need a solution! It's also nice to know he's never 100% certain what to do, so he ASKS me, which makes me feel better instantly, because he's willing to do whatever I might need.
I dated a guy once who couldn't handle crying at all, he'd offer me anything in the world to stop, do you need a drink? a hug? a soda? your jacket? a fur coat? diamond earrings? If I was cruel I could gotten anything I wanted from him.PL4HbfaGNRoQh3g3
Now our men crying?
He's only cried a few times that I know of, when I accepted his proposal, he shed a few happy tears, when he found out we were expecting we both cried tears of joy, and while in the theater watching the move UP, he bawled like a baby in a certain spot. Admittedly, so did I. He's also got a book series that he loves and there's a part in the final book that never fails to get him.
Hubby's mother and I get along very well, so it was never an issue, but I dated a guy once for almost a year and his mother despised me for some odd reason. I use to dread anything with his family, it wasn't the only reason we broke up, but it was one of them.
Not at all, when I met hubby, he was worried that I had more education than he did, but I pointed out that within five minutes of picking me up for our first date he had me giggling at one of his jokes, and from then on, he made me feel good whenever we were together. So much that when he asked if we could make this a permanent deal, he got as far as "Will you mar-" and I was "YES!!! YES!!!"
Single girls, what he makes or what he does for a living is immaterial, go for the guy who makes you feel the warm fuzzies all the time.
Well, I can't drink right now, but I usually bought my own back in the day. No way is some guy going to think I owe him anything.
I've written quite a few lesbian stories, even though I've never done anything more than barely kiss another woman. It's up to the readers to judge how well I've done it. If you write, you write. I don't imagine Dean Koontz has ever gone on a killing spree, but he sure writes about them well. It's VERY credible.
Never actually did it with a stranger, but we did a bit of a roleplay thing with it, hubby was miffed when I kept the money though...:-)
I, too wore one when put into a bridesmaid dress, and the guy I was with then thought it looked awesome, but when it came off that night, he looked so dejected. I told him "What, you expected them to be improved because of the bra?"
