    sex in the work place...really?

    Gum Chewing

    I thought it was just me. I am not a person who chews gum, partly because my teeth are sensitive, and in part because my mom didn't like it when we were growing up. I can find other things to get my...

    Gum Chewing

    I do the same. My husband can tell just from the look in my eyes, or even less, and he's the level headed one of the couple. He also guides me away before I lose it. I was always pretty calm, but...
