Do You Write or Think? Mr Nietzsche's Assessment of Your Dilemma.

[onebatmotherofgoditschilly]

I had forgotten this:

"The literary woman, unsatisfied, agitated, desolate in heart and entrails, listening every minute with painful curiosity to the imperative which whispers from the depths of her organism "aut liberi aut libri [either children or books]."
?Friedrich Nietzsche, Twilight of the Idols

Ten years ago I would have turned the page with a sigh and a sneer.

Today...?

I am being called for assistance with the drying and dressing of small children. If only I had a "Do not disturb, I am working on my theorem" haircut. Grr

or "do not disturb my large brain has pushed my aesthetics out of my skull" haircut.

DP has had the same book at his bedside for over a year. Occasionally, I pick it up and do a bit of phonetic reading aloud to him, like a 4 year old - "I a m am a g g g oo oo goo d good r e re a d read er reader" oh how I laugh.

he must adore your piquant humour as much as my own squeaky darling.

Does he often try to smother you with anything to hand kisses?

oh my giddy goddy threadie!
I have self-soiled.
And am so very much enjoying 'hyper-evident'.
And scared to ask about 'long'.

though 'long' could be worse. Could be 'heavy'.

Or do you mean in the torso?

I became worried last night that I had revealed too much info about my dh and that he would be identified/upset. Thinking of getting my last post deleted. Or perhaps I am just being paranoid/stupid.

please do not stop this thread. I have not laughed this much for ages. And yesterday when walking to pick the dcs up I found myself inadvertently wondering which philosophical Kant style some of my fellow playground dwellers were sporting. Then I quickly erased that thought.

Threadie - And his specialism within British History is clearly motorways. I think it's lovely that he is not afraid to express his feminine side. Is he fond of a good frock like Grayson Perry
I've noticed that academics are often very long. winded All academics should be made to spend 7 years of their toil learning to write a concise sentence. Although, those with really brilliant academic hair should be let off.

Lol. I reported my last-but-one post and asked for it to be deleted. I know that I am a total numpty but I had night-time anxieties about upseting him, even though this is all harmless idiocy.

I am interested now in the level of impracticality in your DP/DH. Was it he or you who first suggested you get a man in?

Oh good toomanydaves

Ah, threadie, don't panic, think it's fine, hope you feel better after deletion?
Shall we move the subject away from dp's 'qualifications' for a little?

OBM - Good idea. Can we return to Nietzsche and his philosopher friends? Lonely hearts ads for philosophers, what would it say, where would the ad be placed?

You start Swedes.

BTW I am going to try very very hard this pm to not be on MN. Am shutting down browser. Farewell, till eveningtide.

Contract theorist seeks similar for game playing in a state of nature. Must like it nasty, brutish and short.

(Larger applicants whale-like proportions welcome in a disciplinary role.)

I think we may be compatible. I've attached a photo
Am based in Herts/Middx area but can travel if you can put me up.

and actually, didn't I just win the sexiest philosopher comp?
