  1. I just don't get it. When I go to a restaurant and have a bad meal, I don't go back. Well, maybe once, to see if it was an off day. But if I come to the conclusion that the food's not good, I don't go back. I certainly don't keep going back and complain about the food over and over again. If someone doesn't like CERB, the rules, the culture, the MOD, whatever... Nobody is forcing them to log in. One would think such people would just move on.
  2. I've tried every method out there and find dry shaving with a standard 2-blade razor to be the best. Just don't use the orange bic.
  3. I agree with most of the posts so far. I am very aware of what I am, my assets and my weaknesses. I am hung like a pony. Ok, a squirrel. I know that. :-). And I am no Adonis. I do have positive attributes, that I hope the ladies I am with will see. But it's a total turn-off to be fed a line that is obviously delivered as part of the role. It hasn't happened often, to be fair, but when it does, it detracts from the experience as opposed to enhancing it.
  4. For me, the term homewrecker is reserved for people (men or women) who intentionally lead on married people with the intention of splitting up the marriage and gaining a partner - not something SPs do. I agree with many comments so far - SPs are more likely to save a relationship than wreck one. At least that's my perspective.
  5. Interesting question. When I am with a MA, I am totally in the moment; enjoying what's happening and knowing (sort of) what will happen. I go in with clear expectations and don't really fantasize about more. I try to concentrate on the sensations, smells, sights, etc... I am usually far too absorbed in all of that to think of much else. It's after i've left that my mind sometimes wanders.... :-)
  6. Ok. I have a ton of people coming over Monday. I make a decent turkey, I do. But I'm looking for a really good turkey recipe. She's 20 lbs and I am limited to oven-roasting (don't have a fryer or any other cooking device). Any help out there?
  7. I suffer from the black dogs as well. Sometimes it's easy, other times it's hard. But one thing's for sure - knowing what the problem is makes a world of difference. There are so many treatment options now; there's no need to suffer on your own.
  8. Agreed. Every day should be special. None of us knows how many we have left. Live life to the fullest! RIP Steve.
  9. Family and some folks in town I know have no family nearby. So much to be grateful this year.
  10. Hey folks, An unfortunate post appeared on one of the forums today. Someone clearly flagged it to the mod and it was deleted. Unfortunately, someone (rightly) posted a negative response - but that post remains and it quotes the original post. So, in essence, the original post remains. The best way to get rid of these posts, in my opinion, is to use the rep points function and leave your comment there. That way, if the mod decides to remove the thread, it actually disappears, along with all references to it. Just a thought. As they say, don't feed the trolls!
  11. It's like a buffet. But a bad one. There's no good choice, IMHO.
  12. I have always wanted to try this. I don't think I'll do it for thanksgiving, but definitely sometime soon!
  13. oh my... two of my favorite things... itty bitty titties and smokes...
  14. If you read the recommendations section you will find all the information you need. Good luck and enjoy!
  15. Such a great question. I have often thought about this. I think I would spend some time traveling and would spend the rest of my time donating the skills I now sell to my employer to charitable organizations. And I would spend a hell of a lot more time with my kids.
  16. I have learned that the more truth in a story, the better. When I go see an MP, I say I'm going for a massage. When I get home and am asked how the massage was, i say "great". No lies.
  17. Angel - I, too, am on day 4. Because of you. The world is a miraculous place filled with miracles.
  18. I won't let this threat become a recovery log... Don't worry! Yup - went to my old home group last night, got a temporary sponsor, bought some extra strong ginger ale.. Yesterday was tough but I fell asleep last night (as opposed to passing out And woke up hopeful. Lunch meeting today. As they say, bring the body to meetings and the mind will eventually follow! Thanks for checking in. PMs welcome, but I won't bore people here with the rest of my voyage.
  19. I, too, love this but it needs to be with the right person for sure.
  20. Thanks all. Believe me - I do know I am powerless over alcohol. Once I have that first drink, I can no longer control anything. I have tried and failed time and time again. CERB is an odd place to gain strength in this battle, but then again, maybe not. There are a lot of special, selfless people here. I am humbled and grateful.
