·       Apr 08 10:54 PM Sassy: I was chatting with a woman who said her beau told her to stop calling him an idiot. So she was looking for synonyms!
·       Apr 08 10:54 PM Sassy: We had fun rolling off twit, prat, jerk, nincompoop...
·       Apr 08 10:54 PM Kris: lol
·       Apr 08 10:54 PM Sassy: cathartic
·       Apr 08 10:55 PM Kris: doesn't sound like you came up with anything to make the poor idiot feel any better...
·       Apr 08 10:58 PM Kris: what gets you mad...and what do you act like when it happens?
·       Apr 08 10:58 PM Sassy: very very rare
·       Apr 08 10:58 PM Kris: how come?
·       Apr 08 10:58 PM Sassy: just not in my nature
·       Apr 08 10:59 PM Kris: ok...but you must SOMETIMES...no?
·       Apr 08 11:00 PM Sassy: I get very quiet.
·       Apr 08 11:00 PM Kris: when you're mad?
·       Apr 08 11:00 PM Sassy: Yes
·       Apr 08 11:00 PM Sassy: Take deep breaths.
·       Apr 08 11:00 PM Sassy: Clean the kitchen!
·       Apr 08 11:01 PM Kris: do you end up telling whoever makes you mad that you are?
·       Apr 08 11:01 PM Sassy: Mostly not
·       Apr 08 11:01 PM Kris: who does...make you mad sometimes...hubby?
·       Apr 08 11:02 PM Sassy: not much
·       Apr 08 11:02 PM Sassy: mostly my boss
·       Apr 08 11:02 PM Sassy: stupid people online
·       Apr 08 11:02 PM Kris: did any stupid people today make you mad?
·       Apr 08 11:03 PM Sassy: nope. Very rare... usually when they're being mean to others
·       Apr 08 11:03 PM Kris: being mean live...or talking about others not there?
·       Apr 08 11:03 PM Sassy: mean right there
·       Apr 08 11:04 PM Kris: like calling names...saying people are stupid...like how?
·       Apr 08 11:04 PM Sassy: Devaluing their opinions, not letting them talk.
·       Apr 08 11:05 PM Kris: so you want people to value each other and try to be respectful?
·       Apr 08 11:06 PM Sassy: respect is crucial
·       Apr 08 11:06 PM Kris: one you think should be...but isn't always?
·       Apr 08 11:06 PM Sassy: People have a lot of different kinks
·       Apr 08 11:06 PM Sassy: It's important to not be all "ewww"
·       Apr 08 11:07 PM Kris: i'm assuming about sexual preferences...
·       Apr 08 11:07 PM Sassy: can be about almost anything
·       Apr 08 11:08 PM Kris: can u give me an example
·       Apr 08 11:09 PM Sassy: some you'd expect... over anal sex or public sex or toys
·       Apr 08 11:09 PM Sassy: other things like how soon to have sex
·       Apr 08 11:09 PM Sassy: or who pays for meals, hotels
·       Apr 08 11:09 PM Sassy: or whether to talk politics
·       Apr 08 11:09 PM Sassy: or various computer tactics
·       Apr 08 11:09 PM Kris: computer tactics
·       Apr 08 11:10 PM Sassy: do you delete everything or not? Is it okay to send cock shots?
·       Apr 08 11:10 PM Sassy: Apple vs PC!
·       Apr 08 11:10 PM Kris: omg...who cares what operating system anyone uses?
·       Apr 08 11:11 PM Sassy: some people care a lot. Idiots. Jerks. Twits. PRATS!
·       Apr 08 11:11 PM Kris: lol
·       Apr 08 11:11 PM Kris: what's a prat
·       Apr 08 11:11 PM Sassy: But it can be whether they'd use tracking software
·       Apr 08 11:11 PM Kris: tracking software for what?
·       Apr 08 11:11 PM Sassy: to know where their spouse is at any given moment
·       Apr 08 11:12 PM Kris: so they don't get caught cheating?
·       Apr 08 11:12 PM Sassy: right
·       Apr 08 11:13 PM Kris: what's a prat...haven't heard that one before
·       Apr 08 11:13 PM Sassy: an incompetent, stupid, or foolish person; an idiot.
·       Apr 08 11:13 PM Sassy: Brits use it
·       Apr 08 11:14 PM Kris: oh...an old term...i just haven't heard it before...
·       Apr 08 11:14 PM Sassy: Or Aussies, Indians... former commonwealth nation dwellers
·       Apr 08 11:14 PM Kris: huh?
·       Apr 08 11:14 PM Sassy: People from all over the world talk to me online
·       Apr 08 11:15 PM Kris: those people use the word "prat"...is that what you're saying?
·       Apr 08 11:15 PM Sassy: yes
·       Apr 08 11:15 PM Kris: oh
·       Apr 08 11:15 PM Sassy: Is your wife sitting next to you?
·       Apr 08 11:16 PM Kris: no...she started a new job today...worked till about 10...probably driving now...home in 45 minutes or so.
·       Apr 08 11:17 PM Sassy: Aha! So I could ravage you. ; ) 
·       Apr 08 11:17 PM Kris: ABSOLUTELY!!!!!!!!!
·       Apr 08 11:17 PM Kris: But you strike me as a girl who doesn't like to travel too far from home...
·       Apr 08 11:18 PM Sassy: Really? I've gone a long way to ravage a man in the past.
·       Apr 08 11:18 PM Kris: Really...so you're going to come to NH when my wife's gone?
·       Apr 08 11:19 PM Sassy: Doesn't seem wise in terms of being inside your house with my long grey hairs and distinctive scent...
·       Apr 08 11:19 PM Sassy: But I can drive places
·       Apr 08 11:19 PM Sassy: I've even flown places!
·       Apr 08 11:20 PM Kris: ok...so you're not such a "home body"...
·       Apr 08 11:20 PM Sassy: I've even driven to the wild frontier of NH!
·       Apr 08 11:20 PM Kris: Ha!
·       Apr 08 11:20 PM Sassy: Okay... the beach... not so wild. But over the border!
·       Apr 08 11:21 PM Kris: yes...i know NH is almost like a foreign country to people in MA...lol
·       Apr 08 11:22 PM Kris: i had a major "omg" moment at work today...could have been bad...but wasn't...
·       Apr 08 11:22 PM Sassy: That happen often?
·       Apr 08 11:23 PM Kris: not like this...had to do with shopping for std testing...
·       Apr 08 11:23 PM Sassy: ahem
·       Apr 08 11:23 PM Kris: meaning?
·       Apr 08 11:23 PM Sassy: nothing like real life and work life colliding
·       Apr 08 11:24 PM Kris: right
·       Apr 08 11:24 PM Kris: i was kind of stupid
·       Apr 08 11:24 PM Sassy: Tough for me to believe that
·       Apr 08 11:25 PM Kris: i'm usually not...but want me to tell you...i guarantee your response will be "omg"
·       Apr 08 11:25 PM Sassy: Sure
·       Apr 08 11:26 PM Kris: ok...try to make it brief...but also wife just came home and now i'm pretending to listen to her while typing at the same time (don't hold it against me)...
·       Apr 08 11:26 PM Kris: so here's what happened...
·       Apr 08 11:26 PM Kris: i shopped for std testing...called some places in my insurance network...
·       Apr 08 11:26 PM Kris: got some info and prices...
·       Apr 08 11:27 PM Kris: checked out the tstd website you gave me...
·       Apr 08 11:27 PM Kris: decided to use the tstd website...
·       Apr 08 11:27 PM Kris: went online to schedule an appt for today...
·       Apr 08 11:27 PM Kris: online application failed for some reason...
·       Apr 08 11:27 PM Kris: called the website and was put on hold to talk to a counselor...
·       Apr 08 11:28 PM Kris: was waiting for a counselor to answer...30 minutes.
·        Apr 08 11:28 PM Kris: elevator music is playing...with an occasional "thank you for calling testing for stds"...then more elevator music...
·       Apr 08 11:29 PM Kris: while i'm waiting i'm sitting in my car...ready to go into a home for a 3:30 meeting.
·       Apr 08 11:29 PM Kris: now i've been on hold for about 45 minutes...
·       Apr 08 11:29 PM Kris: so i make a really stupid decsion...
·       Apr 08 11:30 PM Kris: i decide to stay on...put the volume on really low...and go into my meeting still on hold...elevator music playing...
·       Apr 08 11:30 PM Kris: say I’m trying to buy something and don't want to miss having them pick up...
·       Apr 08 11:31 PM Kris: they are very close to me...very flexible...don't care...laugh and say fine...
·       Apr 08 11:31 PM Kris: elevator music playing softly as we talk...
·       Apr 08 11:31 PM Kris: all of a sudden there a small voice that starts to say...
·       Apr 08 11:31 PM Kris: thank you for calling the testing for stds...
·       Apr 08 11:31 PM Kris: i freak out and shut off the phone...
·       Apr 08 11:31 PM Kris: they didn't hear it...
·       Apr 08 11:32 PM Sassy: phew
·       Apr 08 11:32 PM Kris: and now you say...
·       Apr 08 11:32 PM Kris: you idiot would fit (except you're too nice)...
·       Apr 08 11:33 PM Sassy: I'm sorry... that must have been nerve-wracking!
·       Apr 08 11:33 PM Kris: REALLY...THAT'S IT...NOT "HOW DUMB CAN YOU BE!!!!!!!!!!!!
·       Apr 08 11:34 PM Kris: I like you
·       Apr 08 11:35 PM Sassy: I put myself in your shoes
·       Apr 08 11:37 PM Kris: you're really sweet...I REALLY like you...anyhow...i called back...made an appt...gave them my pee and blood...will send you results on Thursday when I get them...if I'm not clean I've been carrying something for 25 years...since that's the last time i had sex with anyone but my wife...it's the truth.
·       Apr 08 11:38 PM Sassy: Or she's been having more fun than you think.
·       Apr 08 11:38 PM Kris: lol...i know 100% NO...
·       Apr 08 11:38 PM Sassy: But I hope this gives you peace of mind in one way
·       Apr 08 11:38 PM Sassy: And I can give it to you in another
·       Apr 08 11:39 PM Kris: i did it for you...i'm not concerned about having anything...but it wasn't fair to ask you to "just believe me"...
·       Apr 08 11:40 PM Kris: it will put my mind at ease when you get yours though...you're right...hopefully you don't have anything...
·       Apr 08 11:42 PM Sassy: Indeed
·       Apr 08 11:43 PM Sassy: I am trying not to think about it until I have to think about it
·       Apr 08 11:44 PM Kris: understood...but the fact that you're willing to do it means you're not just "sticking your head in the sand" either...which I respect you for.
·        Apr 08 11:45 PM Sassy: It will be good to know
·       Apr 08 11:45 PM Kris: exactly
·       Apr 08 11:45 PM Sassy: I had a couple of tests done in December
·       Apr 08 11:45 PM Kris: for what?
·       Apr 08 11:46 PM Sassy: Chlamydia and Gonnorhea
·       Apr 08 11:46 PM Kris: assuming they were negative?
·       Apr 08 11:46 PM Sassy: yes
·       Apr 08 11:47 PM Kris: so that's two out of 8 on the full panel
·       Apr 08 11:47 PM Sassy: they told me to wait on the others due to various incubation protocols
·       Apr 08 11:47 PM Kris: been long enough now to work?
·       Apr 08 11:47 PM Sassy: Yes
·       Apr 08 11:47 PM Sassy: could have done it in early March
·       Apr 08 11:48 PM Kris: have you been tested before...in the past?
·       Apr 08 11:48 PM Sassy: yes
·       Apr 08 11:48 PM Sassy: once after a fling and the other for insurance
·       Apr 08 11:48 PM Kris: every need to be treated for anything?
·       Apr 08 11:48 PM Sassy: no
·       Apr 08 11:48 PM Kris: that's good
·       Apr 08 11:49 PM Kris: short of hiv i think the others are all treatable...not 100% sure...haven't really needed to think about it much...until now.
·       Apr 08 11:49 PM Sassy: even HIV is treatable these days. Not curable...
·       Apr 08 11:50 PM Kris: yes...but i meant curable...gone...
·       Apr 08 11:51 PM Kris: i asked today about why they didn't test for HPV and another one i had on my list...
·       Apr 08 11:51 PM Kris: got answers...
·       Apr 08 11:51 PM Kris: no blood test for HPV...
·       Apr 08 11:51 PM Sassy: in men
·       Apr 08 11:52 PM Kris: i don't know...maybe not...usually what women are tested for via pap smear...right?
·       Apr 08 11:52 PM Sassy: my nurse said they do a pap smear and only test for HPV if the pap is abnormal in certain directions
·       Apr 08 11:53 PM Kris: oh...
·       Apr 08 11:53 PM Sassy: what about the other test?
·        Apr 08 11:54 PM Kris: i'm probably going to misspell it...but it's the one called something like trichomonmasis...
·       Apr 08 11:54 PM Sassy: yes
·       Apr 08 11:54 PM Kris: talked to a nurse on the phone about it at a clinic today
·       Apr 08 11:54 PM Kris: she said it will present as a greenish discharge...that has a strong smell like a fish (lovely!)
·       Apr 08 11:55 PM Kris: discharge from penis...maybe in urine...
·       Apr 08 11:55 PM Kris: or woman's vagina...yuck!
·       Apr 08 11:55 PM Sassy: I think I'd notice that
·       Apr 08 11:55 PM Kris: when I go down there i'm not looking for "fish and chips" thank you very much!
·       Apr 08 11:55 PM Sassy: Heh
·       Apr 08 11:56 PM Sassy: Did they ask you why you wanted to be tested?
·       Apr 08 11:56 PM Sassy: Or any sexual history questions?
·       Apr 08 11:56 PM Kris: not the tstd.org counselor...but a nurse at the public health dept. in Manchester asked me...
·       Apr 08 11:56 PM Kris: it was on the phone...she asked...
·       Apr 08 11:57 PM Kris: are you concerned about having been exposed to something...
·       Apr 08 11:57 PM Kris: i said...no...
·       Apr 08 11:57 PM Sassy: that's subtle
·       Apr 08 11:58 PM Kris: someone asked me to do it that i'm thinking of being in a relationship with (simple truth is less complicated than lying----these are health professionals after all)
·       Apr 08 11:58 PM Sassy: Did you pay for it on your credit card?
·       Apr 08 11:59 PM Kris: yes...i thought about shopping for a clinic that i could pay through my insurance...but higher risk of getting caught if bills come in the mail...
·       Apr 08 11:59 PM Sassy: W doesn't see credit card bill?
·       Apr 08 11:59 PM Kris: no...i do all the finances...
·       Apr 08 11:59 PM Sassy: Nice
·       Apr 09 12:00 AM Kris: sort of...it's just "one more thing to do"...but means I "get away with stuff" easily...
·       Apr 09 12:00 AM Sassy: Phew
·       Apr 09 12:01 AM Kris: why phew
·       Apr 09 12:01 AM Sassy: So you don't have to worry about it from that angle
·       Apr 09 12:01 AM Kris: right
·       Apr 09 12:01 AM Sassy: So you can do AM, this stuff, lunch etc.
·       Apr 09 12:02 AM Kris: what do you mean?
·        Apr 09 12:02 AM Sassy: charge stuff and she won't see
·       Apr 09 12:02 AM Kris: yes
·       Apr 09 12:03 AM Sassy: Once I charged a hotel and the guy gave me cash because his W goes over all the bills
·       Apr 09 12:03 AM Kris: yeah...that would be tough...
·       Apr 09 12:04 AM Sassy: Several of my pals can't cheat because they can't figure out how to finance it
·       Apr 09 12:04 AM Kris: pals?
·       Apr 09 12:04 AM Sassy: online buddies
·       Apr 09 12:04 AM Kris: because they can't afford it...but can't hide it?
·       Apr 09 12:04 AM Sassy: can't hide it
·       Apr 09 12:05 AM Sassy: We talk about mischief phones
·       Apr 09 12:05 AM Sassy: stockpiling small amounts of cash here and there
·       Apr 09 12:05 AM Sassy: gift credit cards
·       Apr 09 12:07 AM Sassy: Did you get to ride the motorcycle yet?
·       Apr 09 12:08 AM Kris: glad i don't have to deal with all that...but sometime want to talk with you about us...and money...but not now cuz i'm tired...and i have to get up really early for meetings tomorrow...so if there's something else...had this all typed...so will send then answer question about bike?
·       Apr 09 12:08 AM Sassy: Ok
·       Apr 09 12:08 AM Kris: answer about bike...not yet...have a question for you about bike...
·       Apr 09 12:10 AM Kris: does the thought of being on bike make you nervous...because of safety?
·       Apr 09 12:10 AM Sassy: Yes
·       Apr 09 12:11 AM Kris: ok...so i'll use my considerable therapy skills to treat you like one of my clients who has "anxiety with agoraphobia"...
·       Apr 09 12:11 AM Sassy: Oh great
·       Apr 09 12:11 AM Kris: it's a technique called "gradual exposure"...
·       Apr 09 12:11 AM Kris: so how does this sound...
·       Apr 09 12:11 AM Sassy: I won't think about it until I have to think about it.
·       Apr 09 12:12 AM Kris: to begin with...i'll ask you to just sit on the back of it...with your favorite music playing through the four external speakers...
·       Apr 09 12:12 AM Kris: and to really "sweeten" it for you…
·       Apr 09 12:12 AM Kris: i'll ask you to grope me while we're sitting on it...
·       Apr 09 12:12 AM Sassy: oooh
·       Apr 09 12:13 AM Kris: no riding...just sitting on it...
·       Apr 09 12:13 AM Kris: baby steps... : ) 
·       Apr 09 12:13 AM Kris: "gradual exposure/desensitization"...to overcome fear...
·        Apr 09 12:14 AM Kris: maybe you can use that technique for whatever "wild moves" you have planned for me in bed
·       Apr 09 12:16 AM Sassy: hmmmm
·       Apr 09 12:17 AM Kris: hmmm?
·       Apr 09 12:17 AM Sassy: thinking
·       Apr 09 12:17 AM Sassy: got a little lost mulling over... you... in bed... me...
·       Apr 09 12:17 AM Kris: lost in what way?
·       Apr 09 12:18 AM Sassy: in my mind... fantasizing
·       Apr 09 12:19 AM Kris: ok...just when i thought it was safe to go...tell me...
·       Apr 09 12:19 AM Sassy: Sleep is more important
·       Apr 09 12:19 AM Sassy: Plenty of time later
·       Apr 09 12:19 AM Sassy: I probably won't be online tomorrow night
·       Apr 09 12:19 AM Sassy: It's a busy project night with an after party
·       Apr 09 12:20 AM Kris: won't be able to chat?
·       Apr 09 12:20 AM Sassy: right

·       Apr 09 12:20 AM Sassy: take over the top floor of a restaurant
·       Apr 09 12:21 AM Kris: with project people?
·       Apr 09 12:21 AM Sassy: yes
·       Apr 09 12:22 AM Kris: ok...sounds "different"...fun...
