Just Follow Me

Last week I went to the vending machine and put in $.75 for a three musketeer candy bar and when I pressed the selection code it did not give me my candy. Thinking I may have pressed the wrong code I put in another $.75 and made sure that I pressed the right selection code and once again no candy.

I was going to put a note on the machine so the person who services the machine could give me my money back or my damn candy, however I got lazy and forgot. It was not until this week that I saw two other notes on the machine stating they were not given their three musketeer candy bars that I finally wrote my note and put it up there. Even after there being three notes up on the vending machine in regards to this one particular candy bar, yet another person made an attempt and fail thus resulting in another note.

As I walked in the kitchen today and saw a new note on the vending machine and the note said,

" I put in $.75 and selected E9 and got six three musketeer candy bars! SWEET!"

Who ever that candy bar bandit may be let it be known that I thoroughly dislike you right now and I want my damn candy!

A Dating Contract...

Yeah, yeah I know I have not blogged in almost a month but I have been busy and I have not heard much noise about my absence so I suppose I was not missed very much.

Anyway...

I really, really need to get some one's opinion on this... A written dating/serious relationship/marital contract. What I mean by contract is that exactly what I mean; two people laying out the terms of the relationship on paper and if the terms are violated then it is grounds for termination of the relationship. I mean if I don't comply with the written agreement to cook three times out of the week or if I don't satisfy the number of weekly sexual obligations then that's it, it's done (and vice versa of course). LOL!

I mean technically we all tell our partners or potential partners what we want and our expectations of them and hope/expect for that person to meet those expectations but for it to be a concrete, contractual thing?? Wow, just wow. That is a new concept to me. Wouldn't something like that take away the emotions that comes with being in a relationship?? Would it feel more like a daily chore than a loving relationship? As you can see I have more questions than answers. What is your take on it? What would you put in your contract??
