Ibuprofen

Miche & I have been together for fifteen years gone November. Which is quite a long time by any standard. Fifteen years in which many things could (and have) gone wrong. Yet we're still together and rubbing along quite nicely. We're like a worn joint in this respect - painful from time to time, but regular anti-inflammatories keep things from getting too angry or inflamed.

The problem is - NSAIDs have a habit of irritating the lining of the gut. Once in a while you must stop taking them and cope as best as you can with the inflammation.

You'd think that I'd done something heinous, wouldn't you? Dipped the wick into another candle perhaps. But no - this inflammatory issue is external and outwith the influence of "us". Yet it still gets in the way all these years later.

Of course it's my fault, because in this black and white world everything is - for I am a man and fault is the default.

My "no emo blog post" promise is now broken...

You speak in riddles, but I gather you guys are going through something pretty irritating. I'm sorry to hear it. :(

Excuse the riddles, to talk straight would be a little vindictive.

Irritating is a good word.

What I hate about situations like this is if I react and have a hissy fit I will be seen as being selfish/childish/petty, because the irritant isn't/shouldn't be a big deal.

But it is.

And the fact that I can't react is what makes it a big deal.

gah!

Ahh, the infinite loop...

Hi, Just came back here to remind you regarding Mobile Monopoly. It is a superb system and WILL make you money, especially seeing as you own a web site. Take a quick look at their video, the strategy is about using Mobile Advertising which is brand new and an unexposed market where you can make thousands by doing hardly any work. I promise you that after you watch their short video it will change you and it will start making you think. http://mobile-mastermind.com
