I am sitting here with nothing to blog about listening to a private dj'd play list put together by my husband who is upstairs lying in bed because he doesn't feel good. I sat down to check mail and write something witty or stupid and our wedding song came on. I thought, "how sweet", then the next song was played at our wedding. Then all the rest are songs that have some sort of meaning or the lyrics are so vulgar (Lords of Acid) that he is just sending me a message from above-really above, our bedroom is on the second floor. It is actually pretty entertaining.
Since I am blogging about my man-and I did declare that this is a not an anti-husband bitching site, I did not say that we couldn't say nice things. So here it goes: I will have to say that there is something about a man who welds. My guy has been welding two weekends in a row, and there is something sexy and very manly about it. I don't really care for the scientific creepy gynecologist nonflammable non natural green lab coat and head gear, but welding is cool. The hot metal, the bright sparks, the funky smell the ability to melt metal and do it precisely is cool. I don't have a better word for it. ( I did weld an I beam that is in our garage, but it has been years ) In addition to the actual metallurgy work, he designed this piece of furniture and permanently installed it in our home. (I love the fact that he will take chances and think outside the pottery barn catalog.) I like the finality of it. It is solid. It is a part of our house and to me doing something that is permanent and strong means it is part of a solid foundation. The project is not complete, I have to do my part now,the final details. I love progress, and welding and manly stuff.... oh and personalized song lists.
Final thought: I don't want to go to work tomorrow, I want to sleep in, drink coffee, go shopping and hang out with no agenda....

In other words, are you really just saying that you're impressed with the way your man can handle his "tools" and that working with a "torch" can make one "hot"?
I think your blog is really only Freudian imagery.

Why is it just not the same if I were to speak of the way my man can handle his calculator and spread-sheet?
Technically speaking, how can a man welding be anything BUT hot?
:)
Hey you made it. A valuable prize will be sent to your house! Now you need to do your profile and just get on once and a while and bs with us. yah
There's something sexy about a man who can build things or create things - they're all artists in their own rites and I am drawn to those creative types. I also really like the guys who can survive in the wild by eating live tree frogs and slugs. I mean, if they can stomach that, they can eat ANYTHING I want to whip up as a meal. . .
Okay okay, Why don't you just declare your undying love for that English survivormand Bear guy? It is okay to have a hunka hunka burning love on tv. Plus, you sure would feel safe with him around. Being ModAmish and all, I will need to google him and see some more of this man, and I want to if you say he is this hot...without welding....
you have to watch the show. still photos don't do him justice. I bet he can weld in one way or another. he he.
