You know what I discovered?I discovered that I really don’t care what people think of me.
And…I don’t mean that in a “fuck the world, I’m on drugs” kinda way. Let me tell ya…
My ex once said to my son, Ryno, “If you don’t get good grades you’ll end up working at a Drive-Thru like your dad.”
Yeah, uh-huh…she really did. And it hurt…temporarily.
When I found that out, I wanted to say,
“If you’re not careful son, you’ll end up marrying some bitch with a death wish and the wish is all about you.”
But, my good nature precluded me from saying that...and I digress...
A couple of people said things to me recently that made me happy. First of all, Schmoop said:
“Hey, Mahone? Ya wanna sleep with me tonight?”
She didn’t ask me ‘cause I was in need. For God’s sakes she needs my dick more than I need her hoo-ha, but she asked me because she thought it would be nice…and as you guys know…my back hates that bed.
Ha...like she needs my dick more than I need her thang...Ha..I kill myself. Anyhoo, to my point...
Someone who is a relative new commenter to Bagwine said something yesterday that rocked my world…
My relatively new buddy Mystery Chick said the following:
“I tried to stay up til you posted tonite but was unable to keep my eyes open. Luckily for me I got an ill-timed text that woke me and now I can have my daily fix.”
It was the fact that she implied that she stays up until I post that set me off.
I melted…Now don’t get me wrong…I’ve seen pictures of her cleavage and I dig her cleavage and fishnet stockings, purrrrrr, but that wasn’t it. I was just kinda shocked…in a good way,
I thought Chick, saying that she stayed up for my post, was the coolest thing in the world.Someone, perhaps, Scott said this week that I’m a lucky guy…
And you know what? I am. I have a job, a woman who loves me (well, at least one), and as Schmoop says, “a place to come home to.”
I felt tonight, and I don't know why, and I know this post is all disjointed and what not, but I've been thinking about MC for a couple of reasons and wanted to say hey. That's all.
Chick is going through some tough times, as are many people. She didn’t realize it, but she made my day, and I feel the need to pay her back.
Not because she expects it, but because I want to.
So Chick..if you see this or not…here’s to ya.
And while I am working 11-9 today…all you folks show someone out there that you care…intentionally or not.
Cheers!!

...well, it looks like it was I who stayed up to read your post this night! Where's my prize? By the way, you ARE one lucky bastard...
I looked at the clock, saw it was 10 and thought "It's Matty time"!
Thanks Matt. You made my day.
Really.
Phfrankie: Ha, ya know...I tell people who think I'm "without"...
"Shit, I'm one of the richest people in the world. I may be broke, but I ain't poor."
Cheers P-Man!!
Chick: Maybe I should have told ya first...I hope ya don't mind, but you made my day yesterday. Cheers Chick!!
Not only don't I mind I'm flattered.
I try not to miss your posts and on the occasion I'm too tired to stay up I read first thing in the morning.
You often give me something to think about, something to smile about or something to cry about. I never leave your blog thinking "well there's time I can never get back".
Oooh sexy pics! I like that you post at night. I'm up late and like having you as company, lol.
BTW-I also enjoy reading the comments form your regulars as well. They make me laugh out loud sometimes.
It continually amazes me how much a timely comment can make your day (or night). It almost makes you feel as good as knowing that you have a place to come home to with someone that cares that you are coming home.
Chick: Oh Holy Crap, are you trying to make me cry...the "time I'll never get back" thing that was sweet. Cheers Chick!!
Lady: Ha...As A guy who spent his time taking care of little Ryno through his wide awake, "feed me bitch, I don't care what time of day or night it is" years...I feel your pain, and write for every very tired and mom and dad out there . ; ) Cheers D!!
Chick: It is an exclusive club...mainly based upon its unexclusivetiviy. Cheers!!
Sim: Chick's comment the other day day made me melt. It was certainly due in part to the timing and what I was feeling, but comments like that are as you said, very powerful at times. Cheers Sim!!
Mystery Chick is really awesome. And hot. ;-)
Jay: You are right on both counts and thanks for your help today...I may get it all worked out shortly. Cheers Jay!!
"You now what I discovered?"
Yes I DO! That you either can't type or can't spell. I haven't decided which yet. I'll get back to you.
That’s very sweet on both your parts Matt! If you can make one person feel good and happy, you’ve had a good day. We should all be like you two. I love the pics too….Can’t buy any good lingerie around here, it’s either the catholic thing or the rural thing, I don’t know which.
You are indeed a lucky man! Nobody email me naked, semi-naked or lingerie shots….
Mike: Ha...It means I shouldn't drink and blog. Thanks for pointing that out. I fixed it. Cheers Mike!!
Scott: Damn right and I shall make a few people smile while I'm at work today. Here's wishing that you receive some gratuitous emails soon. Cheers Scott!!
YOWZA!!
Doc: Ha. That sums it up quite well. Nicely said, Doc. Cheers!!
What a nice way to pass along the love.
You do know that karma can be a bitch when she wants. This is a lesson that your ex will learn someday.
I don't have tits (well, a slight case of moobs maybe) and I don't have nice legs or stockings - fishnet or otherwise - and I don't stay up late waiting for your post (sometimes I just happen to be enjoying my friend the Insomnia and am up) but, hot damn Matt-Man, I always get a little thrill seeing Bagwine Ruminations go bold in my list of RSS feeds knowing that I'm going to have some usually-thought-provoking fun reading what you have written. You always make my day better and I feel very fortunate (dare I say blessed?) to have happened up your blog.
And I just about spewed my first diet coke of the morning across the lap top when you wrote that Schmoop's hoo-haa needed the Matt-Man's massive endowment more than you needed her. I would wager what's left of my 401K on the fact it is pretty much damn equal.
I've revised my invitation list of that "who would you have at your dinner table living or dead" thing to include you, Schmoop and Scott – if they let him out of Spain or back in the USA.
Cheers Matt-Man
Michele: I am a firm believer in the power of karma and I am wearing a yin yang earring as we speak. And you're right, and I shall post about it soon...I always hoped that someday he would understand why I left. He said something to me the other day that let me know that he does. Cheers Michele!!
Daniel: Wow and thanks. And it's good that you spewed you're drink 'cause I was lying my ass off. There ain't no equality going on there. My small endowment needs her hoo ha far more than she needs my junk.
Thanks for the comment Daniel I really appreciate it, whether you have tits or not. Cheers Daniel!!
that was a nice thing to say
Chick seems like a cool chick :)
I know Schmoop is
and you know that I love you
I completely agree with Michele on that karma thing. I have a wonderful friend who raised her 2 children on her own as her ex, their father, was pretty much nowhere to be found nor was any child support. I watched them get all excited when he would promise to show up for some event and then see their disappointment when he let them down. But to her enormous credit, she never spoke of him in any disparaging way. Now as adults, the kids have figured out he was such a schmuck and refer to him as their sperm donor.
I have the joy of their affection for having been there for them as a surrogate father during their lives. Mr.Schmuck has no clue what he missed.
blah blah blah - yeah, the kids do come to understand and appreciate the parent who can love them without demeaning the other parent.
Dianne: Hee Hee. I love you too. Cheers Di!!
David: Yeah that's kinda sad. Ryno's mom and I get along relatively well anymore for the most part, but I am glad that he can see why I left. Her and I brought out the worst in one and other. Cheers David!!
Oh, Matt-Man, Oh Matt-Man...."she and I" brought out the worst in one "another". I expect better from you Matt-Man....don't fail me. I have my expectations for my heros - and they are high.
David: Well David...It's true. We just didn't get along. I'd like to relate a story of more scandalous proportions but that's pretty much what it was. Cheers David!!
