LOL I'll have to scan my graduation photo so you can see what I looked like back in the day. The long straight hair, parted in the middle and earth tones, baby. LOL

Sorry Chuck. If I say Kentucky, I'll be in trouble again. Where was Jerry Lee Lewis from? Mississippi? Lousisiana? He married his 13 yr old cousin. So I can say I'm not from there.

I know the frustration ! ! The Missus is always, "why are you sad?" I'm not, I'm thinking about something, and really concentrating. "You look all slumped over like an old man", I'm OK, it's just bad posture.

And so on ....

It's just that our facial expressions, eyes and bodies don't match how we feel. He's gotten into the habit of just asking me. He knows there is no use in guessing because it's always wrong. So he just asks, What are you thinking? or What are you feeling? It's less frustrating for both of us.

I always look like I'm sad, pensive or mad.

I was feeling ill last night. I have bronchitis. So, I was explaining how the antibiotics make my stomach hurt and I pulled a muscle hacking up crap and so on. Then he says: "What do you want me to do?"

I say: "We don't talk about emotions very well, do we?"

He says: "I don't know what to say."

I say: "Just hug me, okay?"

Then he gets it, finally!
