The Book of Questions....



Hope everyone had a great weekend!  We spent it with a number of friends around the island at various dinners and parties and WJJ and I had a great time.  I think it is really important for couples to continually reconnect.  And I don’t mean just sexually - while that’s important as well.  Many years ago someone shared the following, “you can have a rotten marriage and great sex, but you can’t have a great marriage and rotten sex.”   Don’t really know if I agree.  Obviously, I haven’t had rotten sex.  Thank you UCW!

I remember having a very heated debate with my girlfriend Lori.  She had “the Book of Questions”.  Now this back is designed to have discussions --there are no right or wrong answers.  So the question was, “If you could have just one thing in your relationship --not both --would it be friendship or passion?”  Lori answered “Friendship”. I answered, “Passion”.  We fought over that for years.  Then she found a young hot guy and changed her mind.  Tj was right again! 

By the way, WJJ hates that book.  You know, other questions are things like,  “Would you rather receive $100,000 for you or receive $1 Million for charity?”  Another question would be “Would you want to know in advance when you were going to die?” 

So one night several months ago, we had company and I said to everyone, “Let’s get out the Book of Questions!”  WJJ looked at me and said, “No not right now.”  I said, “Well, when can we play?”  Without skipping a beat, he said, “When they write the Book of Answers.”  He is so weird.

So, when I want to chat about those controversial, heart-warming, mind-challenging hypothesis of life, I call my sisters, my girlfriends or my gay-guy friends not WJJ.    See?  Life can be simple.
