While clearing out ancient emails--YourSauceHood just ran into some of the-then-soon-to-be-ex's-wife�s-long-before-she-had-a-stroke homework for a counselor (Jan 2000) about what she valued in meself the not so magnificent...
For some reason the absurdity/dichotomy of this list and the fact that she was in mid-departure because she was about �70 percent happy� strikes me as really funny. This is one of those, funny-now-scenarios that was not-real-funny then.
According to this text I should be canonized and on my way to Sainthood. Saint Sauce, anyone?
The bad part is that I want to balance the list with what would have been her list of why-I-sucked, and can�t find it. I wonder if she ever shared that one? But then, I can list my own foibles all day long and probably will append a full on self-critique some day soon as an exercise in actual introspection.
So here, for your amusement, is the pros portion of a two party therapy event she was digging through at the time.
Take this with a grain of salt�as DaSauce sure-as-shit-does.
Anyway--here's what I was chuckling about (and know that I wanna put disclaimers next to most of them.)
**snip**
Some things I "value" in Name-EDITED/DaSauce:

Shall we call the pope?
Heee.
Just to make certain no-one thinks I am as swell as the above--I have promised Morganzola.diaryland.com that I would do a riff on some tunes that bug me--as she did the Mommy Kissing Santa song.
For a preview?
Every-frigging-time I hear the song (an awful song so it is OK to ruin it for all of you) Torn Between Two Lovers--I think of a double penetration gone very wrong.
That and other insights into my psyche--ere long.
