I'm am still leery of the boyfriend word. My friend tried to use it on my this weekend, and I shied like a spooked horse. 5 dates do not a a BoyF make.
We could apply the Chris Rock test. Has he met any of your friends?

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

All is well that ends in pizza.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

That, of course, is the answer to my concerns about Daniel's suggestion that when the time comes to renovate the bathroom here, we replace nasty pathetic plastic surround with classy tile. Aesthetically speaking I rather like tile. Cleaning-wise? I'm a bit wary. So my question is, just how scrubbable is clear laquer?

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
We could apply the Chris Rock test.There is a Chris Rock test? Is is that he can't be your boyfriend if he watches Chris Rock?

Nope. "If you've been going out for three months, and you haven't met any of his friends, you are not his girlfriend."

It's a good test to prove that you aren't "the girlfriend," but I think you can have been going out that long, have met friends and still not be. Perhaps I'm projecting.

Huh. That explains why things ended with Sh.
It is almost midnight and I cannot sleep. This was an opportunity! for me to sleep at like 9.30! and it's just not working! no fair!

Hubby is grateful you asked, because when I asked him, he said, "Did I say laquer? I meant urethane." Urethane would not take much with cleaning and, according to Hubby, "Urethane is what they put on roller rink floors, and laquer is generally put on dining room tables." Soft-Scrub should have no problem with either.

Hmmm. Well, by accident, he's met two. (like, they came down to my apartment to borrow something.) I've met one of his friends -- he manages a bar we've gone to.
Whenever I've mentioned going to a party where my friends are, he kinda looks green. I can kinda understand the looking green thing, but if he refuses to ever meet my friends, I don't think it'll work.
