Greeting All! Happy Holidays!
Reminder: Lindenwood's Annual Yule Revel this Saturday, December 18th, 2004
from 3pm until 10pm. (Full details at http://lindenwood.ansteorra.org/yr05/)
A&S class first (Thanks Suzana!) then food and hanging out.
See friends, fun, and family.
There will be no site fee for this event (FREE), but we will be accepting
donations for the Canton to help cover the costs of the Yule revel as well
as regular monthly maintenance costs. Please bring your holiday decorations
for this fun party in garb. Bring extra to participate in the silent
auction. Cool cool stuff.
Activities will include:
Potluck & King/Queen of Misrule
Period Music and Dance
Gift Exchange
Silent Auction
I hope we will have many people come celebrate with us in a calm and
relaxing event. It will be a good chance to enjoy each others company
without the usual hustle and bustle of too many activities and stretching
ourselves between volunteer jobs.
Your Servant to Command,
~P.W.

I never have quite figured out why the urges of men and women differ so
much. And I never have figured out the whole Venus and Mars thing. And I
never figured out why men think with their head and women think with their
heart. And I never yet have figured out how the sexual desire gene gets
thrown into a state of turmoil when it hears the words "I do."
One evening last week, my wife and I were getting into bed. Well, the
passion starts to heat up, and she eventually says, "I don't feel like it. I
just want you to hold me."
I said, "WHAT???"
So she says the words that I and every husband on the planet dread. She
explains that I must not be in tune with her emotional needs as a woman. I'm
thinking, "What was her first clue?" I finally realize that nothing was
going to happen that night, so I went to sleep.
The very next day, we went shopping at a big, unnamed department store. I
walked around with her while she tried on three different, very expensive
outfits. She could not decide which one to take, so I told her to take all
three of them. She then tells me that she wants matching shoes worth $200.00
a pair to which I say OK. And then we go to the jewelry department where she
gets a pair of diamond earrings.
Let me tell you. She was so excited. She must have thought that I was one
wave short of a shipwreck, but I don't think she cared. I think she was
testing me when she asked for a tennis bracelet because she does not even
play tennis. I think I threw her for a loop when I told her that it was OK.
She was excited from all of this, and you should have seen her face when
she said, "I'm ready to go to the cash register."
I could hardly contain myself when I blurted out, "No, honey, I don't
feel like buying all this stuff now." You should have seen her face. It went
completely blank. I then said, "Really, honey, I just want you to HOLD this
stuff for a while." And just when she had this look like she was going to
kill me, I added, "You must not be in tune with my financial needs as a
man." I figure that I won't be having sex again until some time after the
spring of 2008.
