I've met very few men who understand the concept of cats as housepets. I believe I only know of one who groks the concept of cleaning a litterbox.
:meow:
Men understand a lot more than they let on.....
The bastards just choose to act clueless, so they have an excuse...lame as it may be... :lol:
Sorry...my bitter inner self, got loose for a moment :twisted:

Make that two men who will change the litterbox. My guy got his initiation while I was preggo. He has kept it up for ~4years now. Heck, and I'd even already had toxoplasmosis, meaning I'm immune now. He will even go out in the middle of the night to buy cigarettes & tampons. I did have to teach him how to use a hammer & shovel. No wench has it all.

ooooh....a man who'll buy tampons. Now THAT's a lucky gal.
I have hope sometimes. It's a slim hope. But it's hope.

I have a tampon-buying, cat-sitting, cat-box-changing, non-belching, intelligent, handsome man...
... who is not interested even a little bit in going to Renaissance Faires. :shock:
Ya wins some, ya loses some.
Bonnie

Yikes....it's a toss up, fer sure.
I dunno if I could handle THAT. No, actually, I could, just so long as he never, ever gave me any grief at all about my faire going obsession. yeah, if he could handle and encourage my hobby, then I could accept his total disinterest.

I think I got the best however.
Cat-loving, Litter-box changing, will go out in snow for tampons and ciggies, has the magic "Get-rid-of-cramps" touch, Love Ren-faires, good-looking, intelligent and good in bed man!
Who also happens to be a rogue. *grins*
I think at times I won the "Male Lotto" with this one!

I know a guy who's into all the crazy music I am, a TOTAL hoot to hang out with, and one of the nicest guys on the planet. I mean, he uses obscure Duran quotes as .sig files!
But he lumped Lord of the Rings in with "that Ren faire stuff" and said it actually makes him physically ill. Sigh.
Oh, and he lives in Cincinnati. That's also a problem.

My best friend an ex can completely understand cats as housepets, has never had a problem changing the litter box (even did so while I was pregnant and we were still living together cause he had heard it would be bad for me!) AND TELLS ME the difference between eggshell, cream, off-white, ivorym, bone, etc! Course, he's a graphic artist so that's probably why.

Yeah, not to mention the fact that last time I saw him, his hair was more beautiful than any three average women's put together.
Oh, such lovely tresses....

My Love, THAT fellow is like a chick with testosterone. Quite a lovely man, once you get past that crayon test thing.

Sadly, tis not my tale to tell.
Some things one must ponder.

Don't smoke so the ciggie part doesn't matter, BUT
2 questions:
Does he have any brothers?
or
Can he be cloned? There's a big market and a fortune to made there.... :lol:

Jillian asked:
"Crayon test?" Pray tell, what is that?
The crayon test. My best friend has somehow made a name for himself in the past decade as being one for young women. They have to be legal of course, and he doesnt pursue it, but it just seems to constantly happen to him.
Well, one day while ripping on himself, along with said young woman topic, he made the joke that if he "sks a girl for her number and she whips out a pencil or pen, shes not for him. The minute she reaches for that crayon however...." :lol:
There was also another one about through your bike in the back of the truck baby...but I cant seem to recall it.
Mind you, this is what he was joking about in regards to HIMSELF.
He also happens to be a big Duran Duran fan, his hair is it's natural color again so it's even MORE pretty then when it was black, and though we're still collectively working on the clothes thing, the boy loves to shop for things, particularly for his home.

For one horrified minute, I thought, "Oh, G-d-- did I post that PUBLICALLY?"
But now everyone knows, so I don't feel one whit bad. And I'd forgotten he likes Duran so much. Thank goodness I didn't know that when I first met him. I think I would have abducted him.

Ah! Thank you for enlightening me.
I was afraid it was something similar to the "pencil test" for boobs - you know, to see if one qualifies to be "allowed" to go braless. Anyone know what I'm talking about? Supposedly in the 1960s (correct me if I'm wrong) if a woman's breast could hold a pencil under it without dropping it, she failed the test and could not go without a bra.
Except, this would be a test for men involving holding a crayon .. and .. I'll let your imaginations do the rest.
...
Agh. I just reread what I wrote and you can tell I've been in class since early this morning. Never mind. I may not even post this.
Gotta get me a little of the butt-man, though. Wee-heee!

I guess I'm realy really lucky.
I love to watch women drool when I tell them hubby does my laundry - and doesn't turn my bras pink. He vacuums. He changes the sheets.
He sews. Without a pattern. And produces the most wonderful corsets and bodices for lil ole A cup me to have cleavage!
He's a Scotsman for the SCA and Faire - so he understands what a cold breeze up the dress in winter is like.
He not only cleans the litter box - he cleans up kitty gak for me. I never have to worry about stepping in a fresh hairball.
He has long flowing blonde hair and writes the most sappy romantic love letters you've ever seen.
The down side - body noises are a form of communication in his family. I have to practice burping before a visit. He snores to wake the dead. He's ADHD and mid-line dyslexic. He has a swiss cheese brain that never seems to remember after 11 years that I don't like chocolate.
But the most important thing - he's honest enough to tell me NOT to wear an outfit that makes me look fat.....
and he loves me just the way I am.

Awww... *hugs Bonnie* Cheer up!
LOL.. I know, I'm young, but life goes on once again! ;)
I'm not entirely sure when I'll be down to S.FlaRF but it'll be sometime in Feb. I might be able to swing a day or both days on the 8 and 9th. If not It'll be the end of weekend of Feb I believe.

Well he has a brother but he's NOTHING like my rogue.
I've never considered cloning, but this might been a good idea to consider. Cloning. This might make us a lot of money, heeheee.

Last night my man made me a yummy casserole and brought it to my room because I was swamped with homework and had forgotten to eat. What a wonderful surprise!
Our four year anniversary is coming up, and I still let giggly little butterflies inside when I come home to him.
