Differences between men & women: Matt blogs about John Kerry (ew!) and I blog about sleeping by myself.
Last night, I got to spend a high-quality, ridiculously fun evening with some of my girl-friends. When our fun ended, I stayed at Amanda’s apartment. It was the first night Matt & I were away from each other since our wedding, and boy was it odd. I was excited about sleeping on the Ultimate Futon Mattress, but it really just wasn’t the same sleeping there all by myself. I would have liked to share it with my dh. Alas, he was 40 minutes away pretending to be single again and sleeping at his mom’s house on the Wonderfully Firm Mattress purchased by his grandmother.
I missed my cuddle buddy. And I have no intentions of sleeping by myself for a long time.

So, Amy sent me a link to Catholic Ragemonkey talking about a John Kerry speach. He mentioned a quote (possibly partly not exact words) that went like so: “…that Den Mother taught me to see trees as the cathedrals of nature…blah, blah…and so we can and must march to the day of full equality for all women.” And commented how equality is good nad such, but that it was like a political sleight of hand. He started talking about nature and then BAM! equality for women, hoo-boy, ya betcha!

This was what I was talking about in my post before. If he were a comedian and he said something like that, I’d laugh. It’s exactly what I meant, sorta. Start with one premise, and then smash a different one into one’s field of thought by using some little twist. It’s a great thing! If you’re trying to make someone laugh. Not if you’re trying to be president.
