Fitting the mold, molding the fit

HG and I went to see Kate Clinton perform on Saturday. She was very entertaining and we had a fabulously wonderful time together, as we always do. Kate Clinton is a lesbian comedian who is celebrating 25 years of doing comedy. One of her more famous lesbian jokes is:

Question: What does a lesbian bring to a second date?
Answer: A U-Haul.

So true in so many cases. Why, do you ask? Well, I believe that it has something to do with the deep connections that women are able to make with eachother that isn't confused with all of the game playing and courting rituals that so many men and women do with eachother. Women, also tend to listen and follow their hearts and may not abide by conventional practical, pragmatic, "rules" of dating and courtship.

That is certainly the case with HG and I.
We have been madly in love with eachother since our very first date, and we been together every day and practically every night since then.

We're such typical lesbians.
I hate being pigeonholed into a stereotype,
but if the Birkenstock fits, I guess you need to wear it.

There's only one difference with HG and me that is very different from the joke.
There will be NO U-Hauls in this relationship;

Willamette Valley Moving Company with three big guys at $95.00 per hour will be arriving on Saturday morning to move us both out of our respective homes and into the home that we are purchasing together.

Yes, tomorrow morning at 9:00 AM, HG and I become the proud owners of a beautiful home where we will spend the next eleven years in, (after that, we will downsize...)

Saturday we begin our life together as a couple.

Sickeningly sweet, isn't it?
