Pre-marital counseling

I didn't expect it to be exhilarating. I love talking about myself, and love listening to my usually shy and quiet baby talk about herself. Good counselor too. So cool to be there.

I asked my dad what he remembered of his pre-marital counseling, at a Detroit Catholic church in 1963. He said he remembered one thing: the guy saying, using proper Latin terms, that he and my mom could do whatever they wanted during foreplay provided that all was where God intended it to be at the moment of truth.

I'm glad I'm not in that session.
