	I'm driving the damn bus!  It's been years & years & years, people!!!   
   I'm a friggin' virgin again! 
 
 
	You'd think being married to a bonafide sex addict would have had some perks, right?  NOT!   
  Why is it that sex addicts don't want to have sex with their partners?   
  I know there's a joke in there somewhere...

	I'm starting to believe this damn thing does. not. stop. anywhere.  It's like some sort of cosmic joke or something. 
 
 
	Please pass the margaritas.  And the snacks.  Who cares if I get fat?  It's not like BOB would notice.

	How long is the wait before I'm officially on the bus? 
 
 
	Sigh. You're all coming to pick me up soon.

	Ama, if you feel you are the bus then you are riding. 
 
 
	At least the bus doesn't stink, has good drinks/food, goes to great places and the company is fun.

	Well, it's been almost 2 months. No real expectation of getting off at least until I finish school in 14 months. 
 
 
	*sigh* 
 
 
	Pass the booze.

	Can we swing by London?  I'd love an in-person look at all those men in skimpy gym/pool wear.  Might as well look at what we're missing.  I might be too old for them but my eyes still work.    
 
 
 
	Ama - somewhere on here I think it said 6 months was the minimum for riding the bus, otherwise you're visiting.  Not my rule, just passing it on.

	I was hanging out with a friend of mine last night. We've always had fun together...lots of laughing...last night was one of those nights. Except not. One thing lead to another and I'm giving my seat to Ama  
. I'm sure I'll be right back as last night was shocking and likely to never happen again (unfortunately)..so...keep my spot warm!

	I have too much on my overflowing plate right now. Sad can drive and I will drink myself numb. 
 
 
	
 
 
 
	In about 2-3 mo my life should be more stable and I will again drive all the riders to where ever their hearts desires. 
 
 
	Does ONS mean you are off ? Doesn't seem fair, maybe you can ride as a guest of the bus ?

	As someone who is still licking the windows at the back of the bus, a ONS is still hopping off the bus and announcing it over the bus's loud speaker is cruel enough that the time jumps up to six months and two days.

	not the keys to the bus, gma.  The keys to my handcuffed hands... 
 
 
	temptation is stirring and I am just not ready yet.  I know you can pocket those keys and that they are safe. 
 
 
	You should not have to drive.  I will shout for drinks.

Well that is a different story Care. 
 
 
 
	I'm still dealing with D settlement stuff so haven't been tempted to even look.  
 
 
 
	If I ever say anything about wanting or thinking of marriage, get me an attorney and therapist. Damn I can't do this in my life again !!!!! 
 
 
	
 2xs is enough. Or maybe it's like labor and you know you had a bad time and hurt like hell but you do it again and have another baby ?? This shit never ends. 
 
 
	Going to be riding this damn bus for a long time.
