I have morning would.

“I would get up but I stayed up too late last night.”  
“I would go finish my Latin, but he only collects the Eng to Latin and I already did that.”  
“I would go to Chem recitation, but he didn’t assign bonus points, so why bother?”

Most nights, I go to sleep in a bed in a room and wake up the next morning in a tent. It’s handy on those chilly mornings.

Moring wood is no natural and common it’s one of the main determinants of whether a sexual disfunction is considered bilogical or psycological. If you have hard-ons when asleep, but not when confronted by sexual opportunity, the problem is considered to be in your head, conflicts, phobias, guilt feelings.

Morning wood is **SO** natural and common it’s one of the main determinants of whether a sexual dysfunction is considered biological or psychological. If you have hard-ons when asleep, but not when confronted by sexual opportunity, the problem is considered to be in your head, conflicts, phobias, guilt feelings.

☹ No, sad to say, I don’t.

But, maybe after Mr Bear comes back from over there, I’ll get a chance to again. 😉  
Sorry, Silo, couldn’t resist. 😛

Yes, I get morning wood. I also have to pee really badly in the mornings. Imagine my dilemma:

“Bend, dammit, bend!!!”

But that’s only because I chopped some kindling last night.  
What? Oh, that? Just natures way to ensure good circulation.

Yeah, while splitting logs, any questions?

Slight Hijack

I just had to comment on the fortuitous arraignment of thread titles on the MPSIMS man page.

It was this one “ **Do you have Morning Wood?** ” followed by MagicalSilverKey’s thread entitled (wait for it) "\*\* Oh YES, it feels SO good!!! ohhhhhh \*\*, which is about a completely different subject altogether.

It struck me as being insanely funny.

Ahhh… simple things for simple folks I guess.

I have morning wood, mid-morning wood, afternoon wood, evening wood, night wood… sometimes this is a problem! My GF helps when she is able (damn I’m a lucky bastard!) but she is not able to assist me all the time (she has a job)…
