Good Ol' Co-Dependence

[iAmBaronVonTito]

im so used to someone being in the same bed, i cant bring myself to break the habit and sleep diagonally.  for some reason i anticipate being woken up in the middle of the nite/early morning hours to be shoved over to "my" side.  then appropriately settled to use his chest as a pillow. 

but the bed is too big to sleep on one side, so i bought a single bed.  for singles.

cats are pretty good at taking up the extra space in the bed...

we bought a big bed in preparation for living together but i know that neither of us will actually benefit. just the kitties, who manage to take up at least a third of the bed.

youre right, cats benefit the most- and never catch the hint when it's time to leave.

I don't date high school kids -- people under 25 should be neither seen nor heard.

Mr. Junk, it sounds like its time for yu to invest in a video game system.

When my wife leaves for a few days I do things that I could easily do when she's here but I just don't. Like I normally buy light beer but I decide to buy Samuel Smiths to celebrate the bachelor weekend. No reason I couldn't buy that any other time but I don't. I also call up friends to do something. My wife likes my friends we just don't call them that much anymore and they probably think that we have relationship problems because I only see them alone. Bachelor weekends are also great for organizing the music collection!

Big beds are worth it.

Big beds are essential when you have a baby. If you do the co-sleeping thing, it's just practical, but even not, the kid will end up in the bed occasionally and you'll be glad for the extra space.

We have a full mattress right now, and it's just not big enough for me, baby, and lady. I cannot wait until we have a king-sized mattress in a couple months.

I hate it when Richard leaves! I worry about him having a fiery car crash or falling out of a window and then I'll never see him again. I say everyday that I wish I had a shrink-ray gun so that I could put him in my pocket and carry him everywhere with me. I'd like to take him out when I'm having a rotten day at work so that he could tell me a few jokes or tell me how loving me has made him a chubby chaser.

But it's nice to have someone in your life that you can miss. 

[Andy]

nice, or creepy?

[iAmBaronVonTito]

nice.

p.s. not to mention, crazy, nonsensical, fatal things happen when people leave their houses...or dont.  that's why i always make sure i say i love you and never leave angry. 

doesnt work for everyone, but it works for me.

And never go to bed angry because the cats that climb into bed with you might slice open your veins and you'll never get to say your sorry for being angry about the ugly bookcase or that you appreciated the sentiment, even if you didn't appreciate the pressed wood. Or maybe it will be a heart attack. People die of heart attacks all the time. Or a tree could fall through the roof and smash your someone special while they are sleeping and you will barely have a scratch. That's a lot of guilt to have! Go appologize for something just in case!

that's funny.  My dad and I bought my gf a dresser that she didn't really like, even though she appreciated the sentiment. 

We don't have cats, and that whole "Slicing your veins open while you sleep" thing is part of the reason.  Also, there are so few trees in our neighborhood, it's unlikely one will kill one of us.  We're more likely to catch a stray bullet or something (oh shit!  Now I'm going to worry about that!)
