I appreciate your comment, muser, and I hope my sense of humour grows on you.

Well, johnmcnab...it seems to me that you and Max have some things in
common...as do Ell and I. I'll be reading here often to catch up...I've really enjoyed all I've read so far. I really like your sense of humor, and I think I'm going to like it better and better!

I think most people tend to complicate life...BECAUSE it is so simple...they get suspicious and begin to back away!

Thanks jacenta.  I think it is just Ell who makes life interesting, and she drags me along in her wake.  But you can rest assured, jacenta, that I'll take care of her.

johnmcnab...

I enjoy reading about Ell and you.  Guess I hit the nail on the head when I said a while back that you two together make life interesting. 

You know, I overanalize jokes until they are not funny anymore.  Looking for a deeper meaning to them. hahaha  My grown children find that extremely funny. 

 You and Ell take care of each other.  Keep enjoying life!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi .. I over analyze almost every situation and constantly have to remind myself to " Keep it simple, stupid."   Shooting Pool is so much much fun, I hope you continue with the lessons.

I think you're right, Blanche. Ell needs me to complicate her life, or she'd have it all added up and balanced.

John,
That's why we over-complicating types need the Ell types, to simplify the moutain of data we've amassed. Here's to a beautiful relationship (between you and Ell, and you and your pool teacher).

'fraid not, Whacky.  I still don't know the rules.  I'm just practising.  I have to correct an error I made.  It is not the triangle that is called the 'Boston,' but the rack with the 15 balls needed for 8 ball pool that is known as the Boston.  Sorrrreeeeee.

That sounds familiar, Azur.  Whilst I'm examining things from every angle - and probably subconsciously looking for a reason not to do it - Ell has finished the job and is shaking her head at me as she drinks her wine.

Wow! you must be good!

I think Ell and I can relate to each other on this one
I live with someone who makes it complicated. Of course he tells me that he keeps things simple

It is odd that you should say that, Pat.  When I started the post I had not the foggiest idea how it was going to finish.  I just closed my eyes and allowed my complicated gene free rein.

Yep!  Boring sends me to sleep, ginnie.  Complicated keeps me excited.  That's why I like Canada so much......oh...and women, he adds hurriedly in case Ell is peeking over his shoulder.

Guess it's part of the makeup of writers
to complicate things -- otherwise what would we do for plot twists?  :)

And hey....complicated is good...the other way is just boring!
