Life is misery Support Apolyton, buy Alpha Centauri

I just came back from a 1-week trip to the US. I have not met my kids, gotten any p*ssy (except for some Bourbon Street strippers), and not surfed the so-beloved Internet in all that time. And what happens when I get home?

1) I pick up kids at the kindergarten, but within 1 hour my 2-Yo girl bends over on the floor and cries for Mama to come home. She does not stop crying intil Mama actually gets home 15 minutes later.

2) Despite my terrible jetlag, I cooked a delicious and romantic dinner of Cajun-spiced ribeye steak, fried potatoes, Greek sallad and garlic-spiced cottage cheese, cleared the table, made all the dishwashing, took care of the oldest daughter for 2 hours while she took care of the youngest, and last but not least the gave her the subtle hint of me buying her some very pornographic lingerie She fell asleep right in front of me and refused to wake up . She is still snoring loudly. I haven't seen a bed in 32 hours. but she still thinks her sleep is the most important thing in the world.

3) My computer decided to crash on me. The Graphics Card decided it did not like the latest Windows Update. Windows told me to update the Graphic Card Driver software, but there was no update available. I tried to restart my computer about 10 times and suddenly it decided to work. At least one partner I can trust!

Life is **** and then you die.
Life is a ***** and then you marry one.

Maybe she had a hard time taking care of the kids while you were gone. That would explain how tired she was and why she wasn't open to romantic offerings.

Hey, why can't you all join the male chauvinist pig conspiracy? At least I can trust you Pekka. We should get together for a beer one day. What town do you live in? I travel to Finland at least 10 timeas a year, mostly to Laapenranta, Imatra and Helsinki.

That does not explain why my computer decided to crash. And she slept 8 hours in a bed, while I slept 5 hours in an airplane. She has a bad excuse.

Yes. If you are not married, and your girl tell you to f*ck off, then you are free to f*ck any wh*re of your preference, while if you are married, you promised in the face of God and the assembled people to be true (and I was). Now I have to love her whatever she does to me (and I do love her).

I had some affairs before we married (so did she). After our marriage 6 years ago, both of us have been true.

That's great. I don't like married people cheating on eachother and I don't feel sympathetic to all that "weakness" or "unsatisfied" reasoning for doing it. "Just for kicks" sounds even worse.

It was kinda windy, but the charter boat company picked me up from the hotel so that I did not have to bother about taxi or rental car. The charter was expensive ($300) but the pickup was extremely cheap. And they were very nice people. On the other hand, the first 4 charters I contacted rejected me and lost the business.

Hey, looking at tits is not being untrue. I didn't even get myself a lap dance. If it was, I would not be allowed to go to a public beach.

Lincoln, I love her, but it feels like misery right now, when she is sleeping. It will get better in a day or two. Some day she will not sleep at the same time as the kids.

Sweet!

Yeh, that's pretty epensive for one day of fun. But you only live once!

My sister lives down near New Orleans with her family. Her husband really likes to fish. Her husband's dad likes to take clients out fishing too.

New Orleans is strange place, but has a lot of good stuff.

I compare the cost of going on fishing charters to the cost of getting myself a new and bigger boat.

A new boat is perhaps 15.000 €. If I go for charters, 300€ per day is a quite regular fee regardless of where I go. That's 50 days of high-quality fishing in my own boat. I would be very happy to get time for 5 days of high-quality fishing in a single year. So 10 years would be the break-even time for a new boat. Imagine the money I could spend on travelling to reduce that break-even time to 5 years if I only went on charter fishing. I could fish in Norway, Mexico, South Africa or Australia for the same money that I would spend on buying a new boat to fish in the same waters where I am currently fishing with a boat paid ages ago.

My whife is still snoring...

It's not a Bass, it's a Red Drum. Good food fish, I had one for dinner that night, with Cajun spices. First time I caught that species. The (redneck) owners of the charter called it a Hammer-dooooog!

I'm not sure what you think it means, but in the U.S. "getting *****" means to have sex with a woman, not watch tits bounce up and down.
