Live.Awake: What Men Want

    TEN MINUTES, Ben??? That's a lot of time to dig out dried toothpaste. I think it would be more prudent to get a guy tube and a girl tube.

    I'm too busy laughing to write anything coherent. Nice post!

    Who is this group that ALL hates Josh Groban. As a man writing about love and God, you should know that He doesn't approve of hating. You should be ashamed of yourself, even if you are only jesting. What's to hate about the man....unless you are envious....gee, isn't that another sin God isn't too fond of?

    My husband, bless his manly heart, is enough of a man to buy feminine hygiene products without batting an eyelash. He makes weird jokes to the cashiers too....he's a funny guy and I wouldn't trade him for Brad Pitt. Ever.

    Julie, maybe you read through a little fast or something, because I think you are the only one that missed the fact that my aside about the Grobster was totally tongue-in-cheek.

    I don't hate Josh Groban. Maybe I should put ;-) at the end of every sentence?

    And for the record... I don't believe Jerry Springer is a prophet either.

    Ok...so I should probably say here that Ben is one of the friendliest people I know and hates no one. In fact, I rarely even see him dislike anyone. He doesn't hate Josh Groban...he actually bought me a CD once to be nice and romantic. He also goes whenever I ask to get feminine products (sorry Ben I had to squeal on you) :)

    Not only that, but I paint nails, put hair in pony tails, dress Barbies, watch High School Musical 1 AND 2, cook, clean and occasionally cry.

    I have two daughters. Before I can blink I will be surrounded by feminine products and training bras. Cut me some slack?

    Trust me, I feel your pain. I've painted many nails, tried (pathetically) to braid hair, I've had MY hair put up in pig tails (when it was longer), put cream on butts and more. My job is to wash the dishes. I'm Mr. Mom when Kim goes to work. If we ever get together Ben, we'll sit around and smoke cigars, drink a manly beverage (if I can handle it), and burp and fart and watch football or boxing or some sport with physical contact. Then when we get sick from the smoke, queasiness, and foul odor of the atmosphere, we'll happily go back to our estrogen-laced households for more normal (and tolerable) activities.
