having sex with my best friends wife?
August 18, 2011 By 5 Comments
i have known my friend for 12+ years and his wife for 10+ years. they got married last december and they are both seemingly happy with a child. but last month we were all had a get-together and having a good time and she gave me a lap dance when her husband went to go to the bathroom. she was laughing, so it wasnt like it was erotic or romantic, she was just playing around. but what she didnt know was that for the past 6 or 7 years i’ve been physically attracted to her. i’ve even had sex while thinking about her (more than once)
but after that lap dance things kicked into a downward spiral that i enjoy SO much. things went from dances to rubbing when we walk by eachother, to dirty messages (in both email & text form) and eventually we hooked up one day when her husband was off at work and her kid was with his grandparents, then again a few days later, then again, and again. the one time i went over and my intentions were not for that, i was returning a miter saw that i borrowed and we ended up doing it in the kitchen.
i hadn’t really felt guilty up until last Friday when he was at work, and her kid was actually in the house when we did it (he’s 4) and he walked in on us and asked what the noise was and she told him that we were wrestling and he said "can i play?" and i said no (cuz we were naked) and she said maybe anothertime. we discussed the situation, and i felt pretty bad after that, and the whole weekend up until now. he’s a good friend and a cool guy, i recently helped him install wood flooring in their house and we just hung out and had a few drinks afterwards. there is no tension or awkwardness when we are all around but i dont want to be the cause of their separation and lose 2 good friends. so what can i do now to quit while i’m ahead? i mean she is the best i’ve ever had, and she tells me im the best vaginal + oral partner she’s ever had(whether its truth or a false confidence booster who knows) but i cant deal with the guilt and i know this will eventually end badly if it continues, so i need to end it. its like kicking an addiction to the curb. i need to know how to quit before i ruin a good marriage
How do I make a mitered pillow?
June 30, 2011 By 1 Comment
Years ago I saw a demonstration on the original Martha Stewart show to make a mitered pillow. I am looking for directions or a free online video demonstration on how to do this.
I am finding a lot of instruction on how to knit a mitered pillow and mitered corners, but I’m looking for the whole pillow to be mitered, creating the effect of an X in the middle of the pillow, like the type shown here: http://www.designerlinensoutlet.com/store/product1.asp?SID=1&product_id=112127&ProdName=Nautica+Silver+Bay+Silk+Mitered+Decorator+Stuffette+Pillow&mcode=ysspp
When did mechanical mitre boxes start being used?
June 30, 2011 By 1 Comment
I’m curious, when did mechanical mitre boxes (not regular mitre boxes) start being used?
By mechanical mitre box, I mean like these:
http://www.leevalley.com/en/wood/page.aspx?p=43836&cat=1,42884
Is it something from the past 50-100 years? Or were there contraptions from medieval times that did the same kind of thing? A fixed, sliding saw on an apparatus which could make straighter cuts?
I have made regular wooden mitre boxes, but don’t like the idea of constantly making new ones as they wear out.
How to cut crown molding on sloped ceiling?
June 27, 2011 By 1 Comment
I am fairly new at installing crown molding. I am doing crown in a small office with 125 deg. sloped ceiling and at the ridge it levels off 9" horizontally instead of coming to a point. I used crown blocks at the base of the slopes to eliminate transition pieces and simplify the project. I calculated all my angles for cutting but my problem is the length. The distance of the four piece that run the slope between the block and the ridge piece is 6′-6". I mark the distance on the top of the crown, then flip and reverse the piece so the top of the crown is resting on the miter saw base. Now my length mark is on the bottom & I cant line up my blade for a precision cut. How is this done?
