A Couple Stops For Newsie

I gobbled my food today. That is never a good feeling. Last night my wife said to me, "I can't help it, I guess I'm just a sucker for you." She didn't mean it in that strictly-good way I had reckoned, for when I retorted, "well at least we have that," she gave me a cross eyed look like I was a crazy person. But really isn't that the bare bones of it? What if you weren't, at the bottom of it, simply a sucker for the person you've attached yourself to? The fundamental, inexplicable somethingorother that defies all the fabricated logic you've been able to cook up? This can go the other way too. It does feel terrible to gobble one's food.
