I have a Blog and I’m not afraid to Use It
Driving long distance provides Robert and I ample talk time. I imagine most couples occupy the air inside a vehicle with a variation of say, talking and music, but in the case of Robert and I…….we despise each others music choices.
He is Metallica and I resemble U2. It can get ugly if we try and force our music on each other, mosh pit ugly. He wants to smoother me with the sleep pillow he says my music inspires for him. I want to remove the screw driver his music drives into my forehead and shove it through his eyeball. The only non-violent solution is silence or talking. Our conversations often go deep South or wildly North. It depends on the leading conversational keywords………
Rebecca: ” Well, if that’s what you think you need, you better look for a new wife.”
Robert: ” I don’t want a new wife, but maybe a small harem would be fun. You don’t think having multiple husbands catering to you would be remotely interesting?”
Rebecca: “ I’v heard this concept from other men, so I won’t hold it against you, but why do men think having multiple wives would be the answer to their dreams? You’d never hear a woman state she’d like mutliple husbands, no way. There wouldn’t be enough time in the day to clean up after all of them, find things for them, sooth their egos and pump their pride. No thank you.”
Robert: “ Oh come on, it couldn’t be that bad! Well, as a man, a house full of woman does sound appealing for many reasons.”
(OH, I’m sure it does!)
Rebecca: “Why exactly? That is, beyond only thinking you’d get to have sex all day long. Answer carefully here buddy, I have a blog and I’m not afraid to use it.”
Robert: ” I’m not saying another word.”
Rebecca: “Oh come on, I’m intrigued, lets hear it.”
Robert: “Conversation is over.”
Rebecca: “Chicken shit.”
There is a reason you never, ever, hear a woman say, “Gee, I think it would be fun to have multiple husbands.” We ladies carry a deep understanding of the implications such an arrangement would create. Ladies, can you just imagine if two of them had a sniffle or felt ill? That thought makes my toes curl. It would never work unless us gals could muster a serious mentality role reversal and men got shot up with enough estrogen to shed a few tears on a daily basis.
I’m sure in some twisted way, multiple ladies would be a swanky deal for the guys. But multiple men? Nope, I’ve thought about it, One, is plenty.
After edit~It was just decided, I’m off for another 3 or 4 days of salmon fishing. Goodie! More drive (talk) time! I hope everyone has a great week~
Multiple men would have to be stabled like horses and each one taken out for exercise individually. Or might work if they each worked away from home, like off shore, and they were on opposite schedules. Would keep a steady income coming in. Oh, well, that’s as far as I can take that. I’m busy enough with my one. Leave a few fish in the lake/river. ;o)
Hmmmm, you know Barbara…..you just may be onto something there!
I have to go fishing for a few days, I know, the things I must do to occupy my time. I’ll give your thoughts deep and careful consideration while I’m away..

One wife bitching and moaning about all the shit I haven’t gotten around to doing around the house is enough, than you. Sex isn’t worth another one of those.

More than one husband? No thanks!

Multipe wives means multiple PMS. No way!!!
Mike´s last blog ..I’m Listening
I like the stable idea. I could take one out for a ride depending on my mood. For example, when I’m in the mood for chilling out, I could take out Laid Back Husband. We could drink wine and listen to Neil Young and the Eagles. If I’m in the mood to party, I could bring out Party Animal Husband, drink gin and tonics, and rock out to AC/DC and Nirvana. Of course, a live-in maid would be mandatory. Also, like horses, the minute one got sick they’d have to be put down. (Funny how we girls don’t think having more guys around necessarily means better or more sex – shows we’re more realistic.)
Debbie Schubert´s last blog ..Baltimore Bliss
The idea of having two grown men to deal with, wet towels, dirty underwear, colds… shoot me now.
Tara R.´s last blog ..The fingers just let go…
Yup, one is more than enough… I haven’t got the time or patience for more than that
Kate´s last blog ..Green Team!
Ken is one in a million, so I don’t even have to worry about it.
Beth´s last blog ..Detroit Rock City
Multiple husbands…um, I’d have to say NO THANK YOU! If one finally decided to leave me alone I’m sure the other would have something for me-”honey can you make me a sandwich?” “Honey can you wash my favorite shirt?” “Honey can you get this mile long list of stuff at the store, oh and I don’t like his kind of beer I want a different one” Seriously..I would go insaine!

Honey, we need to inject you up with testosterone and you’d realize exactly why men are the way they are. There ain’t no mystery at all.
Mark O´s last blog ..Out of the Bottle
Hmmm, not many male responses here. So, let me say for the men, ditto to all above LMAO
)
Thanks for the nice words above “Beth” honey.
Joe will ask me, “Do you download any of my music?” and I cringe…hell, no!! But I answer, “Yes, the Jimi Hendrix. Do you download any of mine?” and I know he does not. We are like you all, he loves hat heavy metal buzz say music and I would rather have a fork stuck in my eye.

one husband is already a headache, what more if you have many?
No THANK you.
One is plenty!
Thankfully, Curt just tolerates my music on trips, even if he doesn’t like it.
Heather´s last blog ..Belief
First off, ever try XM Comedy? That is what my husband and I drive to cause, um, I’ll admit it, I’m of the 80′s and he’s into reggae…
Also, has he ever thought about the flip side of multiple wives? Multiple women reminding him to fix this or do that or asking why he never shares his feelings or wants to cuddle… I’m a handful, most PEOPLE are, so think of it that way, how COULD he handel more than one wife???
I suggest either books on CD/tape and silence.
Silence is *always* a safe option. When my wife asks me what I’m thinking about then I have a predictably deep and esoteric topic ready to cover, particularly something she’s not interested in, like, ‘I was thinking about Paolo Friere’s commitment to creating an educational system designed to restructure power relationships and its implications on those of us that promote democratic classrooms.’
Works like a charm
Charley´s last blog ..High Hopes
Many days have passed. We’re missing you. I’m cranking out blogging gems in the meantime, but I need something saner, sharper, SHORTER to ground me.
We’ll smoke you a kipper if we know you’ll be back for breakfast…
IndigoWrath´s last blog ..But Never Jam Today
Another wife would put me in my grave, methinks.
Hilarious stuff here. I like U2 and Metallica….what does that mean?
Chris´s last blog ..Friday Night Shoot Out!
so funny !!
Hope you are having a lovely time fishing—I am with you—but honestly, my husband doesn’t want more than me—is that a compliment?? I’m taking it as such, yep, let’s leave it at that.
Rebecca:
I just got caught up on all your entries, so will write a little about them. I’m glad your enjoying your life and meeting new people. I’ve even hugged some people at a wedding, some time back. Camping, fishing, traveling, and writing!
That entry about Google, Wow? I didn’t know that’s how works? It sounds very amusing, how they find your blog.
Nice picture of your fish, it seems your quite the angler! Meeting new people like that, can be the best way. I do hope you enjoy the rest of your recent trip.
Now to the entry in hand, more wives, NO THANKS! I love this one very much and feel she is just enough for me. Many people said they would have to pick up after their men. Make sandwiches and care for illness? I do all these things my self, and most of the cooking. When I’m sick I get more done around the house. I pretend I’m not and tend to my loves in life. I’m far from perfect, but mostly rely on myself.
In one of our conversation from the past, I used to joke about cloning her! That too would be too much, talk about multiple personalities.
I tolerated Metallica growing up, they have a Unique sound. But grew up with U2, I owned most of their music. Still do, and saw them in Chicago. It was the Elevation tour, my only complaints were. Most fans only got excited for one song, “Beautiful Day”, plus Bono had to hump the stage for a while? Our exit was hut down, so we had find another way there. The traffic was almost killed us, and the people did not care. I already knew this, I lived there for awhile in my youth. This could be another long story, so I will just say we loved the show.
I hope your week is swell and you have a safe trip.
P&L
