I am a 7-layer burrito (with spicy sauce on the side)

I am married with three kids. When I worry that I’m not spending enough time with my wife and kids, I forget about my work and hang out with my family, only to feel guilt that I’m not putting enough time into my business, or doing enough to please my clients.

I am a 39-year-old man with the self esteem of a 16-year-old girl. I feel a tiny sting of jealousy in my head whenever someone I like has fun with someone else. I am easily offended if the person I am talking to doesn’t make an effort to listen to me. I have a deep-seeded need to be liked by everyone around me, coupled with abject fear of rejection. However, I find it difficult to strike up and maintain meaningful conversation with anyone.

I write in short, choppy sentences.

I am a hopeless romantic, with an emphasis on the word “hopeless”. I have fallen in love with every woman I’ve met, even if only for a second. I flirt randomly with adult women of all ages, although it’s only flirtation in my head–to an observer (including the woman) it’s just normal everyday chit chat.

In my own head I am a writer and a poet, yet I find it difficult to cobble together decent copy for my own web site. Hundreds of times I have started “my big novel”, never to get past the first page. NaNoWriMo? I love the idea, but have too many time commitments already.

I love to play the piano, but hardly ever do. I love to read, but never find the time.

I dream grand and elegant dreams. I am an astronaut; a world explorer; sharp-shooter; lover; archeologist; boxer; entrepreneur; entomologist; dancer in a Walt Disney World parade. I am Walter Mitty.

I want to be hugged by someone who understands me.

I enjoy baring my soul anonymously online, but only if I have a big deadline on a project the next day.

What you need to understand is that you’re tasty, and with the right amount of spicy sauce, you can grow up to make anyone’s nose run someday.

Also, you make people fart.

I eat a steady and constant diet of Mexican food but you make me run to the bathroom in 45 minutes. Does that mean something?

hugs SiouxChief I understand. I’m the burrito without the spicy sauce but with extra sour cream.

Life ain’t easy for a boy named Sioux.

A hug for SiouxChief. A manly hug. Because, I do understand.

Meh… you ain’t no home made chicken tamale with too much lard in the masa and a considerate piece of Yerba Santa on top all steamy and greasy inside a fresh banana leaf (guess what I had for breakfast this morning ;)).

But you ain’t so bad either.

<<Hugs from a man who understands cause I’m right there with you>>

Life is a minestrone
Served up with parmesan cheese
Death is a cold Lasagne
Suspended in deep freeze
