I truly don’t mean this to sound offensive, but it sounds to me like you and **Rushgeekgirl** already _have_ settled…into a nice, deep, dark, lonely rut. From what I’ve heard, it can be a hard one to climb out of, and the longer you’re in it, the harder it gets. Please don’t stay there too long.

Yes. If you’re extremely patient. I went on dates with five women with no sparks at all. The sixth time was a charm.

My choices are college kids or weasels? I guess we’ll have to go with weasels. Unless my husband’s MBA courses count?

We are up to 9 as of dinner tonight.😃

It’s weird, really. We seem to go in cycles from one extreme to the other. We can go for a week at a time, but then we explode into action for a few days! Weekends and vacations are usually very sexually productive. We have to be crafty, though. It’s difficult to hide from three kids, especially when two are old enough now to suspect!:eek:

**Contrary** , that was so _beautiful_ ‘out’ of context.

Me? Five months, at least. Some days that seems like an _eternity_.

Hopefully it won’t be too much longer now. I need to get off this computer. When you see the little check mark go from yellow to gray, you’ll know it’s party time for **Ashkicker** and I’ll be getting my groove on about then.😃

Got a quickie in when the kid finally fell asleep earlier!

I feel so much better now.

Next stop, the kitchen . . . God, I’m hungry.

5 days ago after an amazing weekend with me girlfriend. We are in a long distance relationship, she lives in Ontario and I live in Quebec. We have been dating for three months and have only been together twice now. So we generally go about a month and a half between visits. So, when we are together we make up for the time apart 😉 _On a happy note, she will be moving in with me at the end of the summer!!!_

_Garius (ringing girlfriend)_: Hey honey! We need to go have sex now!

_Girlfriend_: Excuse Me???

_Garius_: No time to explain. Thread on SDMB. Want lowest time. On way home now.

I’d like to point out that I’ve never seen **Catalyst** happier than in the last few weeks. [sub]The bastard.[/sub]

I’m gonna blame this thread if I do something stupid.
