Just crusin

So nothing much is happening in our family.

The wife is neither dominant nor submissive nor sexual really at all.

The submissive side of me has to be satisfied with a bit of dreaming and fantasising and wot not.

On the practical side ive tried to churn through some home maintenance tasks.  Fixing the fence, a light here a tap washer there and so on.  Service.

I noted my teenage son has the pina colada song in his play list on spoitfy and has played it a few times.  He is quite a sensitive kid and I'm sure he's detected the marital tension.  In fact the other night the kids were in the lounge talking about people characteristics.  Mine was a lousy memory but mum's was she never hears anything unless she wants to hear it.  She was right there in the room and one of the kids said "isn't that right mum" and she looked up and said "what" and everyone laughed.  Inside I just thought that's because she is basically narcissistic.  I believe that is the term.  Basically all about her.   Bit frustrating actually.

Anyway back to the pina colada song, I ended up chatting to a recently divorced woman on facebook that I have known for years.  Just because my wife has no interest in discussing feelings. or anything for that matter.  Made me think though that if I were to have an affair, the woman in question would at he very least need to have some kind of kink.  My theory goes that if a person has one kink then they can understand and sympathise with someone having a different kink.  But a vanilla person has no idea, no understanding & no sympathy.  Even better if the girl were to share my kink but that would not be a precondition.

And here are the lyrics

I was tired of my lady, we'd been together too long
Like a worn-out recording, of a favorite song
So while she lay there sleeping, I read the paper in bed
And in the personals column, there was this letter I read
"If you like Pina Coladas, and getting caught in the rain If you're not into yoga, if you have half a brain
If you like making love at midnight, in the dunes of the cape
I'm the love that you've looked for, write to me, and escape"1
I didn't think about my lady, I know that sounds kind of mean
But me and my old lady, had fallen into the same old dull routine
So I wrote to the paper, took out a personal ad
And though I'm nobody's poet, I thought it wasn't half bad
"Yes, I like Pina Coladas, and getting caught in the rain
I'm not much into health food, I am into champagne
I've got to meet you by tomorrow noon, and cut through all this red tape
At a bar called O'Malley's, where we'll plan our escape"
So I waited with high hopes, then she walked in the place
I knew her smile in an instant, I knew the curve of her face
It was my own lovely lady, and she said, "Oh, it's you"
And we laughed for a moment, and I said, "I never knew"
"That you liked Pina Coladas, and getting caught in the rain
And the feel of the ocean, and the taste of champagne
If you like making love at midnight, in the dunes of the cape
You're the love that I've looked for, come with me, and escape"
"If you like Pina Coladas, and getting caught in the rain
If you're not into yoga, if you have half a brain
If you like making love at midnight, in the dunes of the cape
I'm the love that you've looked for, come with me, and escape"
