A way for my family to reassure itself that I haven't lost my mind yet. I emphasize the yet.

Perplexed in Pennsylvania

How do you reconcile two different ideas? How do married couples do it? I'm torn between feeling like I need to stand up for myself and that I'm just being selfish, always having to have things my way. You probably are asking, "what is he taking about?" Jasmine and I, of course. She would like to get married very soon, like now, and I want to wait till the end of the summer. You can give us all sorts of reasons one way or the other, but that isn't the point. It all boils down to one thing, one of us has to get their way. Do we flip a coin? Do I say, "I'm the man and I have final say?" I want to include Jasmine, my desire is to provide for her and to give her what she wants. Most of you are probably thinking dirty thoughts. Thoughts like Jasmine is trying to manipulate me into a poor decision. She has always desired to get married. My answer to you is, "so what?" You are asking two imperfect people why they aren't in a perfect relationship. I think the answer is pretty obvious. We are beyond the point where we are still asking, "are we meant together?" The budget is there, the locale is there. My only concern is a baby appearing nine months from now, but there are ways to avoid that. I feel torn, between my desire and hers. I had decided in myself, and by myself, to wait until August, but now I see that as very selfish, and once again me trying to avoid responsibility. I know that no one married reads this blog, heck most of you aren't even in a relationship. I'm still asking, if you could put aside the presuppositions for one moment and just look at the facts, what would you do?

See? No Tigers. It Must Be Working.

I haven't met a germ or piece of dirt that could kill me yet. So why are we so afraid of them?

Short and Sweet

My whole life I've been told I have a slow metabolism, always with the negative connotation. Well today I realized I don't have a slow metabolism, my body is just able to use food more efficiently. Therefore from now on please refer to it as a superior metabolic process. Yeah, that's right, superior. I'm getting way more use out of the food I eat than a skinny person.
