What a weekend! Let's just say I survived and lived to tell about it.

Too many parties to count. It was a freaking blast. I didn't do the female condom thing. I had to pass on that one. I did have fun, met some cool fellas, got a lil drunk, slept on the beach, had a huge ass bonfire on Assateague.. it was a great time!

I actually didn't get laid but boy did I have the chance.. several chances. Something kept me from going for it. Old Joy would have without a second thought.. new Joy thinks too much. *SIGH*

Not to sound like a weirdo but maybe that's kind of a relief on some level? I mean I love getting laid as much as... OK, apparently maybe not quite as much as you, Joy. But getting laid for me is a matter of having sex with my longtime partner. There's no great drama or thought that goes into it, it's just something we enjoy, so we do it.

But I always found that one of the biggest perks of being single (and not really having trouble getting laid when I wanted to) was that I could take as little or as much time as I wanted to just be totally selfish and not give much of a fuck about pleasing anyone else, about chasing tail, about being anything other than a self-centered prick who sometimes liked to stay in and just play video games or whatever. As the mood struck, I did what I wanted.

BTW none of this is to say I'm pining for the "good old days" (see sig), cuz I'm not at all. I love being with someone I love and trust, someone whose life is very much intertwined with mine. It beats the shit out of playing the field.

And I'm stoned-rambling so I'm gonna STFU.

Thanks for sharing that, Si.

Yeah, I've been thinking a lil too much recently... I think I need to change some things to get to where I want to be. It may take me some time but I'll get it eventually. (I hope.)

Spot on.  That's exactly why I like being single, haha.  And I would totally miss it unless I somehow met someone who was like the love of my life.

What exactly would be love of your life material for you?

I'll take it!

If you cloned my brain and put it in a hot chick.  Opposites do not attract for me.

A chick that's hot enough for me to put up with her bullshit?

Agrees. He gives advice with that warm fuzzy feeling..

Odd, I said this earlier this week ...

I know that there are a ton of guys out there that I have dated that are sick of my crap, but that doesn't stop them from calling me when they are in town to get a booty call from me. 

Now I'm going to get back to being hungover.

I just did five rounds on the heavy bag, time for a shower then to see this Baltimore band AK Slaughter.  And eat pizza.
Mountain biking and/or hiking tomorrow and sunday.

It's 10am Sat and I just cooked my wife breakfast; stir-fry vegetables, sausage, an omelette.... served with fresh juice to her in bed.

My conscience as I prepare for a BBQ + Bachelors Party + baseball double header + drinks after that weekend: clear

Bastard.

Man to man; good job ...
Erm, w3rd ...

that was way too much consumption. Good times.... back to the gym today though

Weekend? What fucking weekend?

I had a three, if you count today four, day weekend.

Overall I'm going to go in for about max 5 hours for the rest of this week.

Then next week I have 2 hours and that's it.

There's no $$$ in that, you know ....

Of course not, we use Pound Sterling.

There's no POUNDS STERLING in that, you know ....

Fixed ...
