The but was, she could never make up her mind. Hell, I wanted to marry her and I wanted her to have my children, but in three years she could never make up her mind what SHE wanted.<br \/>\n<!--more--><br \/>\nIt was a pretty common thing, actually. She would decide we should see a play, and while standing in line at the box office, onloy a person or two from the head of the line, we&#8217;d break and go to a bar- then she&#8217;d sit in the bar and wonder if the play was any good. Sometimes we&#8217;d go to the airport expecting to fly to visit one of her family members in Idaho, and end up in Ocala Florida. <\/p>\n<p>Eventually it got to the point that she began to contradict herself in single sentences. A classic: &#8220;I&#8217;m cold, would you roll down the window, I&#8217;m hot?&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>I was speechless. What do you do?<\/p>\n<p>Another perfect example: &#8220;Let&#8217;s just stay home tonight-we never go out and do anything together!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>I have been watching John Kerry flipflop on so many different issues, I expect that a single sentence total contradiction is not far away. I&#8217;ll paypal $10 to the first person who submits a verifiable quote where Kerry outright contradicts himself in a single sentence, (it must be a clear contradiction, not just an ironic turn of phrase) and $5 to the first person who submits a consecutive-sentence contradiction. This is a onetime offer which once completed won&#8217;t be repeated, I&#8217;m only going to spend $15 total!!!! If I gave out $5 for every contradiction I&#8217;d be in the poorhouse in a week.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I had a girlfriend several years ago, who was everything you could want in a girlfriend.
