I'm glad I'm caught up w/you. How did the toilet work out?
As for the X in Hawaii, I would have ripped her a new one too. However, I did wonder if ED had croaked when he wouldn't answer his phone.
The Pac-10 is trying to rebound w/USC tonight, but OSU and Cal didn't fare too well.
I'm on board w/your dating insticts as well. A first date kiss has to be there for both parties and not forced. I've also had a few one-and-dones because although the ladies were "nice" there was something missing. So, didn't really want to pursue it further and won't.
The wax seal was not the problem, but I changed it anyway. It was leaky rubber gaskets where the tank connects. I ended up doing a replace of all the guts of the tank. Modern technology seems to have done away with the float ball on the arm and the refill seems quieter.
The kids and I went to see "The Frog and the Princess" on Christmas day. It was good. XW and Ed were at the same theater watching Sherlock Holmes - she said it was not good.
I wont have the kids next weekend which means I can give my full attention to the Rose Bowl. And there is always that possibility of a date or two.
Just popping in to say I hope you had a Merry Christmas....and I hope the new year brings you dates with wonderful women and more memorable experiences with your kids. You are definitely one of the good guys...
Things are going very well between XW and myself on the coparenting front. I had to drop the kids off with Ed this morning (XW was picking people up at airport). I stepped inside briefly to deliver things for the kids and noticed they now have a most spectacular cascading creek/tropical garden with banana trees in the foyer. Weird. Were the Beatles wrong when they wrote the song "Can't Buy Me Love"? I've got images of the final scene of scarface in my head now this morning.
There were presents for me from XW on behalf of the kids.
