ain't it?

This morning Loved One A writes that Loved One A is trying to talk Loved One B into "the lap-binding procedure instead of gastric bypass."

I hopped on the e-mail to Loved One B so fast there may have been smoke coming from where my fingers were hitting the keyboard.

I'm pretty sure Loved One B is not going to agree to mutilation. But not sure enough not to set aside Other Things There to get my arse right on it.

Plus Loved One B had just been touchingly loving earlier.

Shit is so complicated sometimes.

I think that Loved One A needsto lay off. I would figure that Loved One A is with Loved One B because she loves what's inside. And if that's indeed the case, then asking Loved One B to mutilate himself because she's not entirely satisfied with what's on the outside is just plain wrong. (Or I'm way off base.)

well, it's that health concern that always crops up. i wanna put quotation marks around that, but to do so seems to go a little far in the other direction. there are also issues of what B enjoys doing, and how that might change for what A thinks is the better if only B changed... but i do believe i don't need to suggest to you what's (also) being communicated with that kind of love.
