Husband to soon-to-be-ex wife, after they had sex:

I like this.

In the county park where I walk, there are eight pine trees in two rows of four next to the tennis courts near the parking lot. I go off the paved walkway at the end and walk to my car between those eight pine trees and inhale the wonderful scent as I do.

Perhaps on some level I know the door is there!

I agree. And she seems like a very moderate moderator.

These regional expressions are still my favorites though falling out of use:
cattywampus (means askew)
Well butter my butt and call me a biscuit (an expression of being astonished at the improbable)
happy as a dead pig in the sunshine (means blissfully ignorant)

Preparing to over come obstacles for life to begin.... then we realizes the obstacle is life that has already begun.
