The Boyfriend
23
Sat, 07-28-2007 - 4:51pm

DD and I are heading into Boulder to do some shopping at the cute shops on Pearl Street when a Prius passes us. My dd says that B, the boyfriend, calls them "fag" cars. I want to know why. She says that a lot of gay guys drive them and that is what he calls them. Wow, I am blown away. After a couple of hours shopping over lunch, I ask if B is homophobic. She says that he has had some "bad" experiences in the past, but as long as "they" leave him alone and don't try to espouse their beliefs, he's okay with "them."

Okay, guys, this puts a whole new spin on coming out to dd. I am definitely not saying anything while I am here. I don't want to be kicked out or something worse. I had decided that if she asked, I would tell her, but that I was going to wait until after I told dh, so we could decide together what to do. She asked me last night what artist I had the most songs for on iTunes, and I know it is Melissa Etheridge. She seemed fine with that. Interesting turn of events here.

Hugs to All

:lol: Between 7 and 9 huh? Are we talking AM or PM..........I need to know what to wear! :lol: Heck, even if I wasn't a married woman I would be of no good to you. Unless you'd like to be my personal nurse and or physical therapist......he he.

I hear you about age, I tend to prefer older women. I've only been with 1 woman who was younger than me, and she was only 1 year younger.

And you are too a stud........:lol: Which means I will keep on flirting with you! :lol:

You pick the time. And you are worried about what you will wear.....why? Don't think clothing will be a problem ;) Since the others are later in the day, consider the a.m.

Shannon, no worries. We can play doctor, nurse, physician's assistant....whatever you want.

Okay, I think that the above is officially called flirting. lol

Aren't you up kind of late, young lady. Here in CO it is only 9:40. I am kind of fading. I haven't had much sleep in the last week, I am dealing with a time change, and the hustle and bustle of traveling.

Hugs in fun

:lol: Yep, that is officially called flirting! And something tells me you are pretty darn good at it. The flirting I mean,get your head out of the gutter!

It's only 8:47pm here, not late at all. My knee is killing me but I'm holding out on pain meds for a little bit so I can take it before bedtime.

Ah, you're a west coast girl. I have heard all about you babes. Never actually been acquaintd with one myself, just lusted from afar.

Get my mind out of the gutter??!!!?? Your mind must have been there to know to be able to tell me to get my mind out of it. I knew what you meant, and there is slight chance that since I am a "stud" there might be something else I'm good at. LOLOLOLOL

Really sorry about your knee. Holding off on the pain meds might give you a full nights sleep and a good one. Sorry you even have to take them. How about all the other crap? Still causing a lot of stress in your life? It seems like so much garbage has been dumped on you recently. Sometimes I think that people like you, those who can take the crap and still stay standing, make life easier for people like me. Thanks, sister. This was not meant to be funny. I really think this.

:lol: I've only been a west coast girl for 5 years now, I'm from back east. Although I was raised an Army brat, so I have lived everywhere!

All the other crap is ok so far. On Tuesday we signed our settlement papers and handed over the $$$, so hopefully most of this crap is over. Despite everything that has gone on, I am still very aware that I have a good life. I have a good job, the opportunity for education, a woman who loves me dearly, close friends, my family, my dogs and with the exception of my knee my health.

You know I am flirting with a woman whose name I don't even know?

I have periodically posted my real name, but you have to be quick to catch it. lol

Isn't it a little mysterious and better when you don't know who you are really flirting with? I could continue with the mystery, but.......
My name is Sue, that rhymes with Blue, but I have been called Crash, JT, Sissy(not my favorite), and other names that I can't print here! Printing my name still makes me a little uncomfortable, so let's all stick to Blue for awhile. We'll wait until the dust settles to change anything else.

You know, when you put all the nastiness into perspective like that, it's a good thing. Cutting your losses and getting the heck out is not a bad thing. We have done that plenty of times for big and small stuff. Hopefully, the health stuff will work it's way along, although for me, that would be much worse than the money stuff. I have an agreement with my body that we will have fun as long as it takes care of me. Sometimes it hasn't held up it's end of the deal, but frankly, I haven't either. :)

:lol: It is fun to flirt with a mysterious stranger........my new nick name is Grace, after my lovely fall last week. No one in my family calls me Shannon, most everyone calls me Nene ( pronounced knee knee ). When I was a little girl I could not say Shannon so I called myself Nene and it's just stuck around for all these years.

Are you still fading? :lol: I'm going to bed in about 30 minutes, but only because my laptop battery needs to be charged! :lol:

Nah, I went up to my bedroom and have been looking at jewelry online and looking up some stuff. I always have to remember to clear my history even though this is my laptop. My dd is using this computer now, cause all she has is a PC and this is mobile. I claim that I am tired so I can post here in peace and maybe call S. I'm gonna have to watch myself as the week progresses, and there will be days away, I am sure, but I will lurk as much as possible even if I can't post.

Vicodin rocks as a pain killer. Have a great sleep, sugar.
