A Passionate Man tagged me with 5 celebs I want to have sex with. I think. His post says "Apron." I don't see anybody else on his blog roll with a name close to it, except mine. So anyway...
This is actually a hard post. I have such a dim view of celebs. Number 1 used to Cameron Diaz until I read this piece. Man, am I that picky? If I were 18 again, I'd have no problem. At the ripe, old age of 37, I am more discerning. I've realized that at some point conversation will come up. The person's conversation could affect my mood, which could affect my libido. Damn.
Five celebs I want to have sex with (in no particular order):
I can't think of any. They aren't real people. They are imaginary. In high school I was in the drama department. They were weird, self-absorbed, melodramatic, bitches. And those were just the guys. I can only imagine what the women were like.
It's better to worship from afar.
The demand of the loveless and the self-imprisoned that they should be allowed to blackmail the universe: that till they consent to be happy (on their own terms) no one else shall taste joy: that theirs should be the final power; that Hell should be able to veto Heaven.

I read the article you linked to. I think I've seen pieces of that show ("Trippin") a couple of times. The irony is rather amusing. It's nice that MTV is telling me how to think.
So you were actually surprised that Cameron Diaz is a little bit ditzy, and doesn't really know what's going on in the world? I never would have guessed.
mr. husbland-
Yep. I didn't really fit too well.
ftn-
I was surprised at the length and depth of her iodiocy. To say that poor conditions is great is the height of lunacy.
I just spent the better part of this afternoon reading all your archives.. and I gotta say this.
I consider myself to be a very fair and non-judgmental person. In fact, I am perhaps usually too fair. And I know that there are always two sides to every story, and that relationships are hard and complicated.
But I just gotta say this:
Your.
Wife.
Sounds.
AWFUL.
I dont' care how hot she is or how much she likes to have sex or how good she is with the kids... any woman who DOESN"T WORK outside the home, can't get out of bed before 9:30, uses sex as a weapon, criticizes you as much as she does, is overly-sensitive and takes every teeny tiny commeent completely personally, HAS A CLEANING PERSON and still and, as a SAHM, still expects you, the breadwinner, to do half of the houswork... SHE SHOULD BE SO LUCKY TO HAVE A HUSBAND LIKE YOU.
Sorry. I'm not buyin' what she's sellin'.

(PS: Have met Cameron Diaz. SHe's an airhead. A nice girl, though).

Don't forget this is a blog dedicated to my "mutterings." Sybil has some definite flaws. I do too. The problem is that we are in love. I know that she loves me and I her. So, it makes things very complicated. Also, we have three kids. As some have commented, why would I stay? That is a post for the future, but it boils down to me making a promise.
I know, I know, and I"m sorry to rag on her, because obviously you love her and that's why you are together (hey, my boyfriend can be an asshole too, but I love him and that's why WE are together).
It just seems... wow, I don't know. Seems like you put up with a lot of crap. I know we ALL put up with a lot of crap, but... wow. That's all.

That promise wouldn't happen to be that you wouldn't put your kids through a divorce is it?
passionate man-
Careful, while "Aphron" has a mysterious side to it, "Apron" is decidedly more...um...domestic.
jessiferseabs-
I've been around enough to know that the grass isn't greener on the other side. We all have our crap. If Sybil were interesting in starting her blog about me, it would be quite a tale to tell. Unfortunately like a lot of blogs, you get one side. My control freak side wants to keep it that way.
so gone-
That promise was part of it. I love my kids more than anything. If living with someone's faults means I'm unhappy at times, then so be it. The promise I spoke of was to Sybil. I made a promise to love her until I died. She would have to be worse than a harpy for me to leave her. Besides as I commented to jessiferseabs, one reading this blog (and I appreciate everyone that does) will only get my side. This is an area that allows me to vent. I'll post about why I stay with Sybil in greater detail. Right now, I'm way too busy.
It's interesting that you say/acknowledge that this is a place to vent and that there is another side.
I came across this blog the other day. It's pretty wild. It's funny, it's depressing. The first 20 were the blogger's own, but mostly it's a compilation of lots of women's "confessions" that they send by email.

Counseling?

This place is definitely a place to vent. Sometimes I think it is way too negative, especially how it portrays Sybil. Just as I start to think that, she does something to reaffirm why I blog here.
jessiferseabs-
I offered it. She summarily rejected it. Sybil made the point that no one she knows that has undergone counselling has really benefitted from it. No help there.
It's easy to see how it can become negative and no one can see the good things. I thought it was interesting that someone actually wrote a good thing about their husband --#150 I think. I noticed in the comments many people liked seeing that confession and even wondered if posting positive confessions was "allowed".
As far as the counselling, in general, I'm for it. Personally, I had never done it until the lat year. I have to say the couples thing did not do much at all for us. But recently we started going separately and it seems to be helping. I don't know if that makes much sense or if it would work for others, but it's my two cents anyway...
Good luck!
Big fan of counseling. Just started seeing a therapist (again) myself. I figure, when else in the world do I get to talk about MYSELF for a whole hour?
it's totally narcisstic. I love it.
swimgirlseries-
It'll never happen with Sybil and me. Counselling has been brought up many times and each time rejected.
jessiferseabs-
Narcissm is why I blog.
