Living the Dream

**Apologies for not posting a Sunday movie review--long weekends are not for movies, they are for working on your tan for the last time before snowfall.

But back to where I was going:

One of the good parts of being a soloist amongst a sea of duets is that I'm pretty sure I have way more sex.

One recently-married friend had me over a few weeks ago and over the course of the afternoon made two jokes:

"It's not like we have sex that often--once every 5 months! Just kidding"

and

"Since we got married we've been doing in at least twice a day--haha!"

Now, I'm a big fan of cleverness (Hermione? Yeah), but I have a hard time tolerating jokes about real sex (not to be confused with hilarious stories, boner jokes, etc.). The former comment is just offensive given that her husband is GORgeous, and the latter is insulting because its not true and now I have impure thoughts about said husband (HEY--clearly I would never act on it. Although I should mention that he has an equally-delectable brother).

Naturally, I was thus a bit put off by her weird sex jokes. She was pretty strict about not having sex until marriage, so I get that it's new-joke territory...

But I think I might need to institute an "appropriate-now-that-you're-doing-it" joke rule. It's uncomfortable from all angles.

I also think that a majority of these problems could have been avoided with some pre-marriage self-love. You know what I mean...
