12. it doesn't seem like nervousness
it is more like small talk, but she has this knack for bringing up things that seem totally out of left field.

we have discussed it before and she doesn't even realise she is doing it, but she will just start talking about something that totally breaks the mood, ie. some prank her brother use to pull on her or something someone did at work last week.

makes me go from "yeah, gonna get laid" to "wtf is happening i thought we were heading towards sex"

it is kind of like a pit stop along the way.

it's not a huge problem it just kind of cracks me up and fakes me out.

43. Yeah, chit chat is stupid, but...
a complete lack of communication from your partner is even worse. Trust me on that one. :(

Coming down with 'gulf war syndrome' might not be so great

Second Hand Solvent Exposure

Did you know there was a concern with the first 'gulf war syndrome' vets with their spouses and children born before the war coming down with 'the syndrome' too? There is second hand solvent exposure with this solvent which is very frightening. http://www.valdezlink.com/solvent_studies.htm#story

Ther is a chemical exposure that it is an unnecessary and a preventable harm.

A brief overview of signs of the hemolytic anemia fatigue:
You should have some of these symptoms, as well, if you don't have enough mature red blood cells:

Chills
Fatigue
Pale color
Shortness of breath
Rapid heart rate
Yellow skin color (jaundice)
Dark urine
Enlarged spleen

And even these concerns (Central Nervous System)

Central Nervous System damage showing up sometimes as
Loose your temper easily?
Short term memory loss
Difficulty concentrating
Personality changes to 'grumpy' - Extreme Irritability
All the time Depression
Suicidal Tendencies

You see, this is a neurotoxin, too and maybe the govt will be studying it this time around.

28. Well, this girl will be back later- she's off to watch last night's Daily
Show- enjoy pondering what one poster below calls the "stupidest question ever." Though I beg to differ.

I'll be back.

18. Hearing the back door open during daylight hours
while you are doing it on the living room floor, and KNOWING that the person that just walked in is your grandpa and he is heading your way.

This was this summer past, we live next door to my grandparents...hubby and I are halfway over 40...

We lock the door now. Luv ya Grandpa, just not right at that minute.

27. 8-year-old child walking in on you while you're donning a condom
Especially after your partner assured you there was absolutely no chance of that happening.

30. The expectation of throbbing, thrusting,
sweaty, swearing, moaning coitus.

Not that my wife expects it, and godknows where I got the image, but it's burned into my head that if "it" doesn't attain the above adjectives, it's as inadequate as my member. (Not that I'd know.)

Porn poisoned, perhaps?

40. And my thread gets locked?
I cry foul. It seems to me that there is a bit of a double standard here.

Don't get me wrong mr_hat you haven't offended me, nor am I about to press alert on this message I'm just saying that your post seems to cross that explicit barrier that mine did not.

41. Unfortunately, that is not the only reason one might vomit
My husband and I knew that we were married before we were married because I puked on him even though it was disgusting, everything was cool.

38. Racing cats who knock open the door and jump on the bed
We're remodelling our house, and consequently the bedroom door doesn't latch closed properly-- normally not a problem as we don't have kids.

One time the cats were all riled up at each other, and came racing into the room, knocking the door open and leaping the bed. Nothing like getting jumped on by a pair of cats whilst in mid-coitus.
