ever heard of ssb? secret single behavior? maybe you remember it being referred to in my favorite show of all time, satc. that's right, sex and the city. well i've discovered that secret single behavior also has a married counterpart, which i have recently begun to exhibit. i've been spontaneously breaking out into infomercials. my husband, of course, is my audience. just yesterday, in the middle of our nightly "routine" i started in on one of my all time “best sellers.” he oohed and aahhed over my amazing ability to turn dull, dingy sterling silver jewelry into brilliant, sparkling objects of desire. he tells me he thinks i have a chance to make it big. i agree.
i must admit, its comforting. this secret married behavior.
i like to know that every night without fail there will be the
"up, fluff, fluff, down" of his pillow just as there has been for the past 1,534 nights that we have been keeping each other’s secrets.

i haven't seen the sitc episode you refer to but have to say i know what you speak of. this morning i heard about a professor whose husband was killed in a car accident, and her two year old was brain damaged from the same accident. i am so thankful for the secret married behaviors.
AP aka Ms. Bradshaw....reading your blogs....it made me wonder......is there anything this woman can't do?
