Brad Pitt .. chocolate pudding <img border="0" title="" alt="[Confused]" src="images/icons/confused.gif" /> I'm not even going to join this bizarro conversation.

BTW my favorite Brad Pitt role was the part he played in "True Romance" one of my favorite movies. A real love story.

So what are my Tampa MB'ers doing on this nasty rainy day? I'm going puddle jumping, then going to sit on the porch for a good cigar. Hopefully WW will be on her way to her sisters so I'll have a reprieve from the abuse.

Why is it that I always want to get home, but when I'm here I wish otherwise?

Anyone? Anyone? Bueller?

A cigar sounds good...

Think I'll go get one...

Hey, Robby...I wish you would talk to me offline. Maybe I could conspire to buy it somehow, and you could later buy it back. Well...depending on how much it is worth. Well....I am broke...but...what happened to that policy of joint agreement, damnit???????

Tom: Dude. I know where you are. I lived HELLLLLLLLLLL, I mean, Plan A for roughly 6, count 'em, 6, yes SIX months...and not a removed Plan A, but a, he was right here in my face, in my bed, in my house, moping around, or treating me like shinola, or skipping family events like church to chat with her, or telling me that Christmas was so miserable here with me and my family that he considered killing himself, and was preparing his goodbyes to the kids, yes, SIX DAMN MONTHS of Plan A...and it SUCKED. So, I feel your pain brother. One thing I will say is, I am glad I did it. Glad I fought for the marriage. My children will one day understand what happened fully, and will hopefully see the model of perserverance, grace, patience and self control in what they saw in me during those times (and it was only with God's help...I was clinging to Him WHITE KNUCKLED). And I know I was meeting needs like crazy. So I will also one day have the two fold satisfaction of knowing that a.) I will be able to meet some lucky man-who-is-not-off-his-rocker's needs one day and will be able to make him wildly happy, and thus, will also be wildly happy, have learned a lot of hard lessons on making a marriage work and b.) one day WH will wake up to what he lost, see the folly in his decision, and maybe at that point have the opportunity to do the self reflection himself that he needs to do to be a happy person.

By the way, never saw True Romance. But I sure saw Brad in his movie, half naked and in a greek war costume, I mean, Troy, and as the incarcerate Martha Stewart would say "It's a good thing."

Sigh! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="images/icons/grin.gif" />

Hey robby.

I am so sorry to hear that. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Frown]" src="images/icons/frown.gif" />

I don't know your entire story, but I know you have been through a lot lately.

If she could just see what she is doing to you....or maybe that is the point?

How's your babe today?

Pam

Well DipiT,

I've been know to wear a toga on occassion. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Eek!]" src="images/icons/shocked.gif" /> Have to say though, "Troy" was no love story, thought it was going to be one, but dissappointed. Especially as someone who enjoyed the books and mythology.

I know what you mean. Well it's 2:44 and wife stayed in bed till 12:30. Since then she has told me to get out of the house and move away .... about.... hmmm.... lets see.... 1,2,3,4,5,6,7... Hell let's make it an even dozen. And the glare... oooooo, brrrrrr, cold hearted.

I actually thought she'd be happy the D was finally filed, calm her. But nope, hell on wheels. At least she is leaving for the night... don't even care who with right now, it'll be nice.

Well did some puddle jumping. Inhaling a nice Punch cigar, and settling in for what I hope is going to be an exciting evening. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="images/icons/smile.gif" />

Robby, if she does get rid of it... give her the cigar band off your stogie. Seriously, she must really be hurt to do something like that. Implusive and she'll probably regret it later. Or not. Good luck, and long ashes.

Tom,

Let me get this straight. Fireman (aka hero), cute, Christian, Shakespeare, Greek/Roman Mythology, family guy, lives near the water. Sheesh. You are a catch.

WW better get her head out of her @ss and wake up. Men like you do not grow on trees.
