Mrs Right
As you realized from my previous post, I got married. Having lived with my bride for seven months before the wedding, I thought that nothing would change. Boy, was I wrong! I spent all my life looking for Mrs Right only to find that her first name was Always. My good friend Ed would probably be rubbing his hands together saying things like, “Heh, heh, I told you so.

I was given a hospital bed that not only did I have to put the sides up so that I would not roll …
Shopping
Women and men do not think alike. Is there anyone who doesn’t know that? Sometimes I feel as if they are still talking a Venutian dialect as if they just stepped off their space ship. Sharon dragged me to go shopping for a dinner table. I did not mind as I thought it would be a quick trip and then we could go out for dinner afterwards. We got to the store and browsed around until she saw something she liked. Actually I saw many …
