Halloween Parade of Men
As I look back on the Men in my life, I am getting caricature pictures of them in my head. We all try to consolidate the good, the bad and the ugly into something we can make sense of and then move on...so here is my Halloween Parade of Men.
The Husband - 1989-1993
BIKER DUDE
Met at a party, 2 weeks later we moved in together, got married 8 months later, had a daughter 9 months after that, Divorced in 3 years. Not much more to say here than thanks for Kate, the best thing in my life.
The New Boyfriend/Fiance 1993-2001
The Charmer
Charismatic, entertaining and exciting..Think Humphrey Bogart/Frank Sinatra with the bad reputation and behaviors of Jack Nicholson. This guy did it all..he could dance..and I mean ..tap dance, play the drums and he could sing too. God was he fun..but what a heartbreak it was when it ended.
The Bachelor #1 - 2005-2007
Pirate Bastard
Sailor who drank too much and loved the ocean. We were perfect together.
A northerner ..thank god..and we had the bahamas in common as well.
Couldnt make a decision, sabateur,white lie teller and overall neurotic mess. Two needy people..who couldnt make it happen for one another no matter how hard we tried.
The Bachelor #2 - 2007-2008
SPORTS FANATIC/JOCK
What a doll...we both loved sports and had work in common too.
So nice and sweet and caring...but had a dark side I was unaware of.
Big Crisis..Chaos ensued..I got dumped without getting dumped..still friends but act as if we never had a relationship. Very weird and frustrating..he is still a bachelor and I am still confused.
The Bachelor #1 - 2008 - Current (that is questionable)
The Pirate Bastard AGAIN!
Yes..I know..its that love hate thing...We hate to love each other and we Love to Hate each other. Right now ..I hate to love him and he loves to hate me! We switch back and forth...absolutely dysfunctional..an intervention is needed.
So now I am at the point where I dont have any Boyfriends..meaning men i have intimate relationships with ..Only male friends that i know from work.
One in particular is the reason why this post has been created. I wrote this post..to figure out some way of putting the words BUCK WILD into my blog. So here it goes.
The Business Associate 200?-current (not sure when we were in Lauderdale with your old friends)
BUCK WILD (this pic is actually a real costume named Buck Wild)
This particular man is married and we are friends/business associates and that is ALL!! He has been married for a zillion years and I am so in awe of that! He is the reason why I started My Best Day Ever..because he was the one who reached out and offered me help. He is a positive force and a wonderful friend. We have the most hilarious business lunches and we need to have more. Buck Wild is his wishful thinking, wannabe Porn Star name. He makes us call him that! Even his guy friends...or what he lovingly refers to them as his Bromances..lol
Get out of that man cave, take off the manzier, Festivus is upon us ..lets Party!!! This ones for you Buck!

The Sunday Cyber "Im Screwed" List 11-1-09
Its Sunday...and I have been sitting on my butt now for a day and a half. This month I spent 4 days having a garage sale with my business partner, Alanna..The first weekend we attempted this we managed to put out eveything we dont want to own anymore, for about an hour before the heavens decided to open up and cleanse of our sins, our stuff and any money to be made that day!
