  1. I try to be reasonably kempt. As far as my partner goes, whatever makes her feel good about herself is fine by me. Peace MG
  2. Never been asked to provide a reference. Peace MG
  3. I am not married and have no children but have been with the same woman for more than 25 years. We have an annual review where we set a time to talk about us and how we're doing, plan vacations and review finances, RRSP's etc. It's work well for us. Once you go through the loss of parents and friends and mourn together you become bonded in a different way. Sometimes the grass might look greener but you're too old to try and jump that fence and you've learned that when the going got tough neither one cut and ran and that means a lot. Peace MG
  4. From past relationships I learned confidence which has helped me in many many ways. Peace MG
  5. Day dreaming is my normal state.......makes life so pleasant :) Peace MG
  6. In the past I did send pixs via email. One reason was to ensure we didn't know each other from another life (it happened) and so they could practice hiding their disappointment when I arrived at the door :) Peace MG
  7. Anna Kendrick...........another one of those very smart, very funny and a little ditzy type that I do love. Peace MG
  8. Really none of my beeswax....but natural all the way for me. Peace MG
  9. Not sure what's happening the Peg but if there is a slow down it's not surprising to me and it's a combination of things I think. The economy doesn't feel very brisk at all, household debt is very high, the real estate market has softened a bit, Christmas, high taxation and the new legislation combining for a soft landing. I think this impacts the part-time player mostly but I do think every one is taking a cautious wait and see attitude resulting in even regular players reducing activity. Peace MG
  10. Maybe they can all live in the same house.......errr done that one. Maybe on a remote island and try to survive.....err done that one. Maybe race from location to location......damn it have done that one too. If folks watch other crazy reality shows that make no sense........then the ratings for this one will be just as huge. The 1976 movie Network was pretty much spot on Peace MG
  11. I purged my list eons ago... seemed sort of like the rep points thing friends for the sake of friends. Now I have one, likely because she was being kind to me when she added me :) Peace MG
  12. I accept texts at any time, calls by arrangement and only after some email correspondence or we've met. If I'm in a situation that I can't respond to a text immediately I won't. It's my personal cell and no else has access to it, I've never had a hobby phone. I don't get a lot of texts but enough that it's not an unusual event. Peace MG
  13. I've always believed my ongoing patronage was like a gift or tip. That being said I have gifted but always something unique to me and that just might be remembered. A pint of a favored Häagen-Dazs ice cream, a used book about a local turn of the century feminist and the memorable thing about it was the original owner was from her hometown, a steak that I knew would eat fabulously (I am a meat expert), black raspberries from my garden and music. All things that took some thought, showed I listen and would and could be easily explained. Peace MG
  14. It's pretty much common sense like it's always been and if it seems to good to be true... it is, like it's always been. No one is a sure thing as individual tastes vary considerably so reco's and such don't mean a lot to me. Communication is the key for me and always has been, take the time and I might become interested.......don't and I won't be. After that it's all about chemistry....either it's there or it's not. Peace MG
  15. The game is going to change and change quickly here. The sheer number (s) of those who have no clue what's coming speaks volumes. This and the other erb board have had lengthy discussions about the ramifications that may or may not happen. Regardless of whether one's opinion is the sky is falling or it's not the fact remains these boards represent a fraction and a small fraction at that of the overall players in the game. So the next few weeks are going to be very interesting here in the Peg....very interesting indeed. Peace MG
  16. Unless some one is independently wealthy of course, at some level it's about the dough. It only makes sense when you think about it. Whether it's for basics, the extra's, to pay down debt or be independent of others it still comes down to money. As well......not everyone loves their job. Peace MG
  17. I like Xmas well enough just not fond of the crass commercialization excess it's become. I have you great nieces and nephews who receive gifts (mostly books), the adults get a bottle of wine and a thank you for their charitable contribution to Winnipeg Harvest and the Christmas Cheer Board. Personally I have more than I'll ever need so gifts are politely declined in favour of donations. Then there's always Festivus.... Peace MG
  18. Out of curiosity, can I have my posts removed from the site and have my account remain active? Peace MG
  19. A very nice interaction at a grocery store this morning with a lovely fellow customer, we smiled, we laughed, we flirted and we exchanged coupons. Peace MG
  20. Gillian Anderson in the BBC series The Fall. She plays a police inspector and I'd have no problem assuming the position :) Peace MG
  21. For me initial contact is always email, if some one doesn't provide that option then I move along. I'll text to confirm an appointment and after a visit to thank some one or to set up a re-visit. I don't give up my cell no on spec. Peace MG
  22. I tend to arrange visits for when I come directly from home, so I'm freshly showered, shaved and brushed so I don't need much, mouth wash I'd always use. After the fact as warm damp towel is appreciated then I'm good to go. Pretty low maintenance all in all. Peace MG
