Well first thing is that we've stopped practicing sex as we've perfected it (ie doing it without the need to worry about one of us being able to count to 28)
then the next thing is, (well one of many many more examples of how great sex is) wasn't it Shakespear who said "the tongue is mightier than the sword"? - or was it the pen, quill or whatever... one of them anyway...maybe even Dickens
hahahahaha! You've gotta get there, try and enjoy the trip.
