He 'Gets' Me, He 'Gets' Me Not

6:37 am

After divesting his clothes (I sleep naked; he dresses for an arctic expedition before coming to bed), my husband rocks our bodies together in a slow glide and picks up the conversation (which happens to be about potential future lovers…which is a subject that occasionally serves to turn him on…which is the *only* reason he’s even remotely interested in sex at this hour) where we left off a moment before.

“Why don’t you get together with A?” he asks.

I wrap my legs around his, pulling him into me, before I respond.

“Because I’m not interested in A.”

He knows better than to ask why (or maybe he’s just not awake enough to bother), so he asks a different question instead.

“What kind of guys are you interested in?”

Mentally rolling my eyes (because after almost ten years with me, he *still* doesn’t recognize my most sensitive erogenous zone as such), I tighten my PC muscles and explain.

“I like men who stimulate my brain.”

He contemplates this revelation for a moment, then nods.

“I think your brain is in your pussy,” he states with not-yet-caffeinated academic sobriety. “So that makes perfect sense.”

Hmph! Well at least it makes sense to HIM.  I, on the other hand, am (Still! An hour and a half later!) slightly dumbfounded.

How is it possible that someone who understands me so well doesn’t really understand me at all?

Sigh…

    The forest and the trees comes to mind. You get really close to someone and you notice they’re {their} wood and you forget about the rest of the forest. And the squirrels are nuts.

    I had never heard the song before, but I’ve heard ones like it.
