To bitch or not to Bitch?

I hope you weren't actually holding your breath. I really can't afford to lose any readers.

So a recent comment leads me to believe that if I continue to scratch this itch, it will lead to carnal passion. Well, I'm married 9 years now, so I guess this can't hurt!

Anyhooo, what to write. I was talking a while back with Still Wonderin' who explained that the reason he started his blog all over again was that he wasn't happy with the direction his blog was taking and wanted to start fresh. He felt that he was bitching too much. My problem is that I think that the only way I have anything to write is if I bitch. There's a lot of bitchin' cooped up inside me. I don't think I want that though, so I'll try and contain it. Sure.

Here's a 'happy post'. The annual boyz skiing trip begins this Sunday morning. Every year some of the local guys get together and go skiing for a couple of days. First year there were four guys, last year there were 8 and we're looking at 14 this year. 14 guys (middle aged? are we middle aged yet? When do we reach THAT pinnacle?? I suddenly need to know) on a trip to Vermont.

If I told you that this trip is all we talk about for a good four months before and 4 months after I wouldn't be exaggerating. We obviously lead extremely exiting lives. This year we'll be heading up to Killington for two days and a few lucky ones will be staying for a third day. I'm still trying to figure out what they've done for their wives that they get the leash extended for so long. I was once told that if you 'go down', they'll let you do anything. Well, I'm not sure if it's her missing me or a testament to my lack of skill, but I'm only going for one night.

Two things should prove interesting: 1) We all need to meet at 2:00AM Sunday morning. How the hell am I gonna accomplish that?! 2) The house we're renting (14 beds) has an outdoor hot-tub. Since I doubt it fits 14, this could be the making of a really good (bad?) post.

There, that was a nice post. My thoughts on the "Slifkin Ban" next. If you haven't heard, start doing your research.

See. That wasn't so bad. You posted....and lived! What made it better was the linked comment from Airtimedaily. I must object to your characterization of the skichevra chatter for four months prior and post. It's well over 4 months. Closer to 12.

You shouldn't hold your bitching in just because Still Wonderin doesn't want to write bitchin posts.

I think we need more clarification on "go down."

As for the Slifkin ban, some of us have no idea what that is about.

'Going down'? Call it another way to scratch an itch. ;-)
