TMI Tuesday #226 - Deadly Sins Edition
I don't do TMI Tuesday routinely, but I'm thinking it might be time I start. I just couldn't resist this one.

1. LUST: Besides your current Significant Other who do you lust for or have you lusted for?
Since I don't have an significant other, I do all kinds of lusting. Currently I lust this man at my coffee shop (see him every morning) but apparently he is happily married. *sigh* Doesn't stop me from peeking at his ass when I've got the opportunity though. There are a few blogger chatty-chat boy toys who I absolutely adore and it's too bad none of you live closer. I currently lust for the young dirty blond as well and spanker. What can I say? I've got a big heart and a lusty appetite. :)
2. GLUTTONY: What food brings out your inner glutton?
There are so many foods I love! Hmmmm...I suppose when I really think about it, I always fill my belly too much when I have a good steak. I would much rather buy a nice rib-eye or t-bone than order take-out food. I also have a sweet tooth and cannot get enough ice-cream.
3. GREED: What are you greedy for?
I am greedy for affection. I don't mean that I need to always be the centre of attention, but when I'm getting it (especially from a man) I am happy. I'm also a little greedy for my mary-jane. That's right, I said it!
4. SLOTH: What is your plan for an ideal day of sloth?
Definitely starts with sleeping late. After that perhaps some soft, lazy sex and a long cuddle while watching movies. No housework, no cooking. If I had my way, I would also have someone tickle my back all day long. Heaven.
5. WRATH: Describe a time that you let out a can of whoop ass on someone.
This is a tough question because I've never been in a physical altercation of any sort. I'm quite good with words though. There have been many times when I've reached my boiling point and I've finally gotten the words out that make an impact. In December my ex hus and I got into quite a heated telephone discussion. We had switched a night with our children because I had an important meeting to attend. When I arrived home, my first born was sitting on the couch, which of course meant that their father hadn't picked them up. I called to ask when he was coming to get them, and it was quite clear he had completely forgotten. Instead of simply apologising for forgetting, he got extremely defensive and accused me of using him as a babysitter. I fucking LOST MY MIND! Gawd...it's making me pissed off just thinking about it! He did end up picking them up and said sorry later for his horribly childish behavior. I'm sure there are other examples, but that's the first that comes to mind.
6. ENVY: Who or what do you envy? Why?
I envy people who have parents and siblings around who visit their children regularly. I have little tolerance for friends who complain that their parents don't take their children enough. I don't have any help with my children aside from ex hus (and he helps because they are his). I don't think anyone should expect their families to give them breaks and all of that. I mean, if you've got that with your family, yay for you but it's a privilege, not a right.
7. PRIDE: Have you ever had to swallow your pride? What are you proud of?
I have had to swallow my pride on many occasions and for a variety of reasons. I think it's really just part of life to suck it up sometimes. I am tremendously proud of my shared custody arrangement. It was really hard to get past feeling like I'm missing half their lives, but I had to do what was best for THEM not ME. For the last six years, we have raised our boys together while living separate lives. I am proud of all the hard work I've put in to keep things running smoothly all these years.
