sesquialtera is:
- finding it interesting that the onset of the holidays has once again dragged out everything that troubles us. i was married to the wrong person for ten years and then got divorced. then, after almost ten years of living alone found my true partner; the person with whom i had a vocation to spend the rest of my life. the word vocation is not used lightly since we are both roman catholic and have sought annulments so we could get married in church. the catholic church considers married life a vocation in the same way it regards religious life.
i guess my point is that we have shared a residence during this time but have not "co-habitated". we wanted our children to respect us and, hopefully, take example from us. sex has not been a major part of our relationship (i have my own room). what we have is our feelings for each other. it is simply wonderful to have someone who worships the ground on which you walk without reservation. when someone just loves you for who you are, there is nothing better.
although my male ego pushes me to "take care of things" and buy expensive presents, she constantly reminds me that none of this is important to her. all she wants is me. i should be ecstatic. why do i fight it? being male is REALLY dumb sometimes.
when you find that person who truly loves you, don't try to figure it out or do what you think are the "standard" things to do in response. enjoy it, for it may not come your way again.

among other things...
i think it's strange the boundaries you have and justifications you make to uphold them, it seems incongruous and not very real + are you sure that your kids understand all the subtleties of living/not living together?
however i am terribly happy for you that you have love, understanding and mutual goals.

- Sesqual..I admire your efforts to set an example in front of your children. I've always hated the "i'm an adult and can do what I want" spiel. There were a few'live-ins' and/or 'drop-ins' of my mother's when I was a kid. Used to walk in on them all the time! Sex was never any mystery to me, got to happen upon a live tutorial quite regularly. Twenty years later the old lady looks at me sideways all the time wondering way too late what I think o f her. She don't wanna know!! She should've cared at the time.
Way too much fuss is made over sex. People think there's something wrong with you if you live celibately or they conclude you must be gay. Beyond their comprehension to treat it in a respectful way. At times, I really can't feel too sorry for my women contemporaries and their man woes, but I understand.
So go ahead now and blast me, call me self-righteous and moralistically old fashioned. I know it's coming....

wearing jeans to work today.
got a new pair at Good Will, some thick denim that i can wear while i'm in detroit. size 8, if you can believe that. low-rise, of course. can't stand to wear anything that comes up too high on the waist. because i'm so short, this makes finding jeans and pants a little more arduous and tiresome than it should be, because fuck if i'm gonna go The Gap.
i also got a gray ski cap and a pair of wool mittens. hard to believe i could find stuff like that at a good will in hawaii, but i did - though there wasn't a huge selection or anything. unfortunately i had no luck finding boots.
Kevin says he's visiting his family in Ft. Wayne for the holidays. he promised he would drive to Detroit for a few days to see me and meet my family. he invited me to Ft. Wayne to meet his family too. i'm not sure what all of this means, if it means anything at all, or if it's even going to really happen. he keeps saying he's coming to visit me here but he never does, so there's no point in getting my hopes up about this. it's just talk. but it sure would be fine if it actually happens. it sure would be good.

my fiancee and i are not married. our kids are 17, 22 and 26. i believe they understand our reasons for not sharing the bedroom right now and respect us for them. the whole catholic thing is a can of worms not worth opening here. anyway, i guess i was trying to say that, despite the sleeping arrangements, i'm very happy and content because i know i'm with the right person (at last!). and, on those rare occasions when there are no kids in the house,...

I'm going to call C.P.S.,not that it will do any good,I did this once before and they called it a lifestyle choice.I need to do something,I could never live with myself if something happened to her,knowing what I know.She's waaaay too small for her age,and doesn't talk much for being 2.It breaks my heart that Heather has sunk so low,having shit bags using her,you lie down with the dogs, you wake up with the fleas.I'm about ready to call silent witness on the bunch of them.

i don't know what kind of accent i have, gee. when i moved to texas, i had a rhode island accent. after a while my accent either evened out between the two or reverted to a general mutt accent like the way that stray dogs that interbreed eventually revert to the same general body shape.
my grandparents were irish, so i can fake an irish accent.
your first post about this new object of your desire made me think of the john lennon son "beautiful boy." the song was about the birth of his son, but what the hell.
