TMI Tuesday #193 and Ramblings
Posted by hubman38 on June 30, 2009
First of all, thanks to everyone who commented on my Marriage and Infidelity and Swing Shift Vol 1 posts the last two days. Reading the comments, clearly what was written struck a cord with some of you and was informative for others. What I really appreciated was the give-and-take between readers in the comments section. As long as readers are respectfully of others opinions and are not nasty or mean-spirited with their comments, I welcome that sort of discussion.
In the spirit of imitation being the sincerest form of flattery, my comment policy is shamelessly stolen from the same as Dana’s:
- comments are not pre-moderated and I welcome all thoughts- supportive, critical, whatever.
- anything abusive or threatening, off-topic, or is a personal attack will be deleted.
If you make a comment and don’t see it here, it’s because in my opinion it violated one of the above guidelines and I deleted it. And for the record, I’ve never had to do so, and I hope that doesn’t change.

What the hell is it with people on Craigslist? Veronica and I have used it successfully in the past to sell various unwanted items- Princess Persistents old crib, a TV, a mattress and box-spring, and other misc items we don’t want or need anymore. What bugs me is the person who says “I’ll be over to buy (insert item name) this evening” and then they don’t show up. Which happened to me last night. Veronica was at DBs karate class and brought PP along with her. It was a beautiful evening (for a change) and I would have loved to go for a bike ride, but I was expecting someone to come to the house. Did they show up? No. And to think that I told 5 other interested buyers that this jerk had first dibs.

On to this weeks questions. Oh wait, for some reason there aren’t any posted yet. [UPDATE: scroll down for TMI] If something gets posted later today maybe I’ll find the time to come back and edit. In the meanwhile, here is a picture of Veronica leaning to look out the kitchen window and check out today’s weather. Really, I have no idea how her dress got like that

1. How many speeding tickets have you had? Accidents?
Let’s see, counting, counting… 6 tickets that I can recall. Unfortunately, 3 of them came within 18 months of each other, and NY State law dictated an automatic-don’t-even-think-about-appealing 6 month revocation of my license. Good thing I was in college at the time- not being able to drive wasn’t too big of a hardship. 1 accident- I rear ended someone in Boston traffic- no damage to his car, but I couldn’t say the same about my hood and grille
2. Boxers, briefs or commando?
Calvin Klein microfiber trunks. Occasionally commando
3. Have you ever had sex in your office or your place of employment?
Oh yeah. And in Veronica’s office too. But not in my present office- I think I need to rectify that.
4. Do you or your SO own a motorcycle? Do you ever ride one? Do you wear a helmet when you ride?
I do own one! Go back to sometime in March and there is an HNT with me and my motorcycle. I ALWAYS wear a helmet. Even if it wasn’t the law in MA, as a husband and father it’s the responsible thing to do.
5. Ever been skinny dipping?
I’m afraid not. Something else to put on the to-do list!
Bonus: Ever been arrested? Turned someone in/had someone arrested?
No and No.

People are flaky honey. Hopefully some of the other people will come tonight and buy the item.
Barefoot Dreaming said
ha! looks like the moon was still out
j/k V….love the dress btw
Umm- people are sooo stupid! We are trying to sell our old van. It was not selling in our town so I had my mother drive it 1.5hrs away to her town to give it a go. We no more then get it there (engine still hot) and a guy from town we were trying to sell it to says he wants to test drive it… uggg really?
red rider said
I agree with Barefoot – looks like its foggy outside but the moon is out inside

We’ve had the same experience with Craig’s List lately. In fact, the cabinet that I had two people interested in buy (enough to tell the others they had first dibs) is still sitting in my family room. Never showed up. And the others decided they weren’t interested. Like we didn’t have better things to do than sit around waiting for them. But, being polite to someone posting something for sale got me first dibs even though I wasn’t the first to inquire about it. So, I guess it worked in my favor once.
Thanks for sharing the picture! It must have been quite windy in the house if her dress ended up around her waist!

Yes it was a beautiful night for a change. Hopefully the weatherman will be wrong for the rest of the week.
Damn you are a lucky man Hubman!

I see bootie!!!!
Craigslist can be an evil place. At the same time it can be good, after all it is where I met my wonderful boyfriend. Whoda thunk it?
Calvin Klein microfiber trunks? Are they briefs? I’m too lazy to google them.

You have never been skinny dipping? It have been a while since I have… now I wish I had a pool!
Sexy @ Forty said
How do you do the TMI? Like, where do the questions come from??
hubman38 said
ASM- it all worked out! The old cell phones AND the pack ‘n play are gone. Yippee!!!!
Barefoot Dreaming- now THAT’S a pain in the ass…
Red- and quite the moon it is, wouldn’t you agree? Wait, I know the answer to that
Emmy- you have no idea how windy it was
Spin- actually, that was taken early this morning. Darn right I’m lucky!
April- you met your BF on Craigslist? Cool! About the Calvins, check your e-mail
Suburban Hotwife- you wish you had a pool? If that’s an invite, then I do too! LOL…

As far as ppl not showing up in for ads in Craigslist…I suppose that’s no different than when you have a regular ad in the paper selling something. People used to do that crap to me all of the time. Or for instance, if you’re selling something at a garage sale. Ppl will say, “I’ll come back for this later” and never do.
Did I totally miss a point here?
Vixen said
Really? REALLY???? You haven’t ever skinny dipped??? That always surprises me when I hear that about adults. I guess bc I grew up on a lake and my first skinny dipping was before I was even 13. LOL

I must be hungry. I’m noticing and appreciating the bananas in the background. Which is not to imply that I’m not appreciating the sexy beauty in the foreground.

My comment policy is the same as yours. I think you’ve seen how people can get rude and attack on my blog, and I do my best to let people respectfully share their feelings and criticisms, but lines are all too often crossed on my blog. It’s why I don’t allow anonymous comments.
I love when a dialogue opens up in my comments section!

We’re about to post our HNT. It’s a rip off of this sexy shot of Veronica.
