Marriage = Dreary
by Robert on Mar.11, 2006, under Bitter? Who me?
What follows is an IM chat between myself and the inestimable Barbie.
Robert says: So do you think that one needs to be dreary to be married? Or at least to stay married
Barbie says: huh?
Robert says: Well I was thinking about Barbie. There are not many boyfriends who would love Barbie as Barbie deserves to be loved
Barbie says: That's a serious understatement - but then you KNOW how I love auditioning them. Even if they fail they are good for an hour or two
Robert says: But surely they should be worth a little more than that. As we both know, they tend to get all intimidated and run off after a while. So I was thinking Barbie is SO FABULOUS And is SO much fun to be around, why don't boys stay
Barbie says: Because Barbie is more than their little minds can handle
Robert says: Exactly, so one wonders Well - wtf is what one wonders first THEN one wonders If this is true Then perhaps only the dreary can get or stay married
Barbie says: You may be onto to something
Robert says: Let's look at the evidence for a second It seems that if you are too fabulous Or too three dimensional They bail after a while
Barbie says: Well one does have to wonder
Robert says: Yes, its food for thought Lets face it Given some of the people who can find a partner the entry requirements cant be too high ne c'pas
Barbie says: This is very true Maybe barbie will be single for ever?
Robert says: Maybe but if you will be I will be too At least we will have someone to gossip with at the old evil queens home
Barbie says: Yes indeed
Robert says: Although I am not sure that things are like this everywhere. Its not been my experience. I hate to point to this as the panacea of all good but I think it might be Melbourne
