Thanks Fiona


Why is it that when I take affirmative steps as a woman to become independent from the ties of the male dominated society, the action in and of itself is asinine? As I've alluded to in previous posts, I'm in the process of moving out of my office space. In moving there is a requirement that I need a vehicle capable of moving my shit. I have a standard, normal, non-gas guzzling car. It's great on a day to day basis but it does not have the capacity to haul filing cabinets and desks.

Mr. Stonecold has a truck. So last weekend, before I got pissed at Mr. Stonecold and cut him off my hand, he had agreed to help me move all my stuff. He called yesterday to see what the plans were. This is the first time he has called since Sunday. I told him I didn't need him to help, but he could call me today if he wanted.

I decided throughout the week that I need a truck. So I've decided I'm going to buy one. With a truck and a vibrator who needs a man, right?

This morning, Mr. Stonecold called to see what time he should come over to start loading. I told him he didn't need to worry about it because I had it taken care of. He asked how, I told him I was buying a truck. He said (and I quote) "that's asinine, what do you need a truck for?" I told him I needed a truck so I didn't have to call him every time I needed to haul something. He said again, that's asinine.

ASININE? ME? Look here fuck head fucker head, just because I choose to preempt any need for a penis in my life is not asinine.

Why the hell does he have the capacity to get me so ticked off? Why do I care whether he approves of my purchase? Why, simply by virtue of the fact that I was born with a vagina, am I not allowed to drive a big ass truck as proof that I don't need a man? Why does he affect me like that? Either I'm so sick in the head I need to be bled dry to quit, or I just really used to love him. I sure hope that's it.

SBS - Thank's dear. At least I don't need shock therapy.

Pghguy - Part of the reason Stonecold told me it was asinine is because I've given him so much shit about his big vehicle. Not a big fan of the gas hogs for a number of reasons, but what's a girl to do?

Sorry SB, I'm a pure penis girl. But after the past couple months I've seriously thought about walk on try outs for the other team! Thanks for the vote of confidence!
