And I have that occasional redneck fantasy too
I always figured they'd be good solid dependable guys, maybe not too bright, but I've dated so many "open minded, intellectual types" who turn out to be hypocrites, and I have much more respect for an honest not-too-bright fellow.Last year I dated a security guard, not actually a red-neck, but I'd known him for years and had begun to appreciate his simple good hearted, solid hard days work kind of character. You know kind to little old ladies, phones his Mom, loves his sisters... And then
And thenafter 15 years of him being nuts about me, decided it was time I stopped dating undernourished artists, and went out(or stayed in) with him. It was really really nice, he poured me a bath, went out and got wine, put on some old swing music, was all nurturing and cuddling as well as an awesome lover, I fell hard. Until the next day over breakfast he told me he believed that the Royal family were shape shifting lizards.
I made the mistake of thinking he must be kidding and said "of course they are thats why the queen is named Elizabeth, you know Lizzie Lizard.
He practically spat at me! His expression changed into that of a cult member and he told me I was UNENLIGHTENED because I didn't believe this, and it was NOT something to joke about.(and I'm the one on medication?!!!) Oh dear, I guess men come in many disguises. I've got to admit though I still miss the rest of him.
B.T.W that lizard idea I found out later from a friend is not originally his. its a British Soccer players'named David Icke and he has his own website and has published two books and has a huge following...
(I guess there are far more dangerous stupid theories that much of society as truth though, at least he's not advocating burning crosses on peoples lawns)Did you used to live in New Orleans? Thats the only place I've ever truly wanted to travel to.
I swear. I'm jealous.
And a very humble thank you for the overwhelming words of kindness.Garbled Gabbi
