Tinge of envy. I read a few blogs this morning, some of my regular reads and a new one. For all of the appreciation and enthusiasm I have for sexually aware and hungry women, it does sting just a bit to read of their exploits knowing that I cannot partake. I'm not sure what the difference between jealous and envy is. At any rate I don't enjoy being petty so I won't dwell on it. At times I am not quite shocked but a little surprised at how many married women fool around and with a great degree of abandon. I percieve a definate shift from what I had always thought was a societal norm of the married man fooling around with unmarried woman to more of an equal number of married men and women fooling around. Makes me wonder when I'm in the grocery store - how many of these women are available...

I've been sore for over a week now but the house looks great. The deck I built a few summers ago got a power washing last night. The first potential buyers to come look at our house are comming back for a second viewing tonight which is a pleasant and somewhat vindicating suprise. There was significant drama attached to their first visit which I don't care to recount but basically the wife blew comments by our realtor out of proportion, who probably blew comments by the buyers' agent out of proportion, who probably blew comments by the potential buyers out of proportion to the point where I get a desperate phone call after they went through the house the first time that leads me to believe that the toliet has fallen thru the second story floor onto the dining room table with associated sewage guyser type flooding and this is my fault since I personally did some remodeling. There are five words I learned long ago that you cannot say to a woman. "it is not a crisis"
