I'm a nervous night walker, so if I walked I would be in phone conversation with Fixit a lot, if not the whole way. Maybe ride the pushbike?<BR/><BR/>Nell says her mother put her off before her first life drawing class by saying that people fall into 2 categories in the doodle-drawing department. You are either a 'fuzzer' or a 'bigger'. She says she got so paranoid about it and that she so didn't want to be a 'bigger' that she ended up being a 'fuzzer' by default. Which were you?<BR/><BR/>How to shut Husband up: Confide that you <I>were</I> slightly aroused because the doodle in question was so enormous.<BR/><BR/>This is a very long comment.Stomper Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04038937073264645029noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7461976390766037601.post-54386466204778881952007-10-11T10:24:00.000+10:002007-10-11T10:24:00.000+10:00Say, these are marvelous!

You're an inspiration.<BR/><BR/>As far as walking home at 9:30 at night in the dark, I don't know how far "just around the corner" is, but I don't blame you for being cautious. My experience is that being a woman means avoiding situations most men wouldn't even think twice apart. Anecdotally speaking, there have been many women who ended up raped or worse because they were ashamed or afraid to make a stink about someone following them, et cetera.<BR/><BR/>All of that is my long-winded way of saying that you have to do what makes you feel safe. If husband doesn't like your taking the car because the distance is so short, perhaps he'd like to meet you after class to walk you home? After all, if the distance is as short as he thinks it is, it shouldn't be a problem for him.

I don't think men understand what it's like to feel vulnerable (in terms of personal safety) because they so seldom are. I tried to explain it to my large husband once and he told me that he can't think of a single time when he felt threatened or uncomfortable. We should be so lucky!<BR/><BR/>Oh, and, doodles?
