Well, okay Neil Peart can play the drums.

Almost as good, I suppose.

Sort of like.

Well.

I'm sorry, I know you are a happily married woman, so I hesitate to bring up such of a thing to you.

At least half of my female friends are bi or lesbians. Of course you can talk to me about that, it's totally appropriate as far as I'm concerned.
Gosh, I'm the last person who would find that uncomfortable in any way.

I was a little concerned but didn't want to pry, as I saw that you were rather scarce around here.

I'm happy that you're finding out more about what you really want in life.
As long as you're happy, that's all that matters.

Men can be so selfish, demanding & self-absorbed and it's nice to just relax.

Ya know?

I would have fit right in with the Darkover Circle, when Marion Zimmer Bradley was presiding,

A lot of my closest friends have come to the conclusion that guys just aren't their cup of tea (or coffee, heh).

Well...I was trying to find a cool song for you, but the one that came to mind was this one. A little "smooth", but still great lyrics.

It's just that most of the men I've encountered of late have no sense of any common decency, and I could do with a rest from the self-absorbed.
