    Damn it, Helen! Can you NOT make me look like I'm writing erotica?! :p

    TMW you now have an idea for a historical fiction about the Viking landing of Vinland in 1002 under Lief Erickson through the pov of a young Viking sailor. (Jots down notes)

    TMW your dog - who loves cheese more than life itself - lets you know she thinks Velveeta is just as gross as you do. :blech:

    (Spat it right out. Tried to give her another piece and she just walked away.)

    As a kid I remember taking great pleasure in reading labels on foodstuffs and the ingredients within. Needless to say that this was way before this type of information became popular. I particularly remember the oddly shaped Kraft Cheese Whiz jar my mom would reluctantly buy via my older brothers' request having the subtitle - "Processed Cheese Food"

    WTF was that ?

    It does depend on the individual circumstances. Some couples are more sexually active than others. And some people feel like they need a variety for some reason and cheat.

    Where cushions are comfy, and straps hold firm.
    Ever hear of dopamine addiction? Those poor people we call sex-addicts, are simply chasing a high that
    occurs in the brain after sexual intercourse. The chemical simulates the effects of being in love, and that
    feeling is what they crave. Not the intimacy or the well being of the other person, just their own selfish need
    to an end.

    Some cheat out of anger or spite, as an act of aggression.

    Some get seduced into cheating by someone they are not all that interested
    in, and then in the haze of things act upon the seduction.

    The easiest answer is boredom, and not feeling satisfied.

    The point is there are a number of reasons why people cheat, and it is not 100% clear
    why of all things the vast majority is self-motivated.

    One way to avoid such problems is to have an open relation, where you can have
    as much meaningless sex with who ever you wish, and still have an emotional/sexual
    connection to your chosen partner.

    That moment when you find a map of the area devastated the last time that volcano you're writing about erupted and find you've underestimated the amount of ashfall at the location of your volcano observatory. By a whole metre.

    That moment when you really need to take an antihistamine.
    That moment when you can't take an antihistamine because you haven't had hayfever in 4 years and you don't have any.

    That moment when you wish it was possible to kick trees in the balls.

    TMW you look at Potvin's location and for a brief second think he's actually from North Korea.

    That awful moment when you realise your timeline (yes, that timeline) needs so many changes that you might actually have to type up a new one.

    Nearly right - I'm British not Canadian - I was once in the British army where I was possibly the worst PC to ever (dis)grace the officer ranks of the Royal Green Jackets (now merged to form 'the rifles').

    TMW @Link the Writer continues to write with weird fonts and colours, and you wonder if the blue is supposed to match the sea within which he swims.

    TMW you don't care that others think you're weird for writing in weird fonts and colors. And yes, this represents the sea I swim in. <splashes you with his tail>
