I finally put the stories straight so the straight version will become ingrained in his memory.

I might wonder if he had a touch of senility or was getting doddery, but he’s too young. I think you’re right on when you ascribe it to Marital Mind-Meld. Yours and mine become ours in all kinds of strange ways after being together for years. This might also have been a result of the fact that you’re so good at relating stories and events that he actually thought he was pumping gas right along side you when the international sports figure pulled out.<BR/><BR/>This Marital Mind-Meld might become a concern if he swears up and down that it was him having the Pap smear during your most recent visit to the GYN/OB. Maybe you’ll have to claim it was your prostate the doc was probing.Litzihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15797830477221024642noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21447266.post-14895115162000235052008-02-22T14:47:00.000-07:002008-02-22T14:47:00.000-07:00Shows you how great a story teller you are...You b...Shows you how great a story teller you are...<BR/>You brought the moment to life, and your husband truly lived the moment!Pendullumhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11833881250780345533noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21447266.post-54918877785724556922008-02-22T09:30:00.000-07:002008-02-22T09:30:00.000-07:00Oh.
