CLAUSES LEFT OUT OF THE B(L)INDING PRE-NUP
(Written as though I were living inside Martha's head, as a man. Don't worry kids, this only exists in my imagination. And should, perhaps, in the female perspective, but be that as it may......)
1) I agree that should my blood caffiene level fall below the threshhold 500ml/hr, provided I don't burst into flames, or turn into a pillar of salt, I agree that perhaps I should merely burst into song, the state of my Ethel Merman impersonation notwithstanding.
2) I agree that my husband's creativity should not be considered to have great monetary value, at least in the absence of a reputable agent or artist rep, and that the greatest value it could ever possibly be to me, is for purposes of inspiration, fostering whatever has lay dormant within me.
3) I agree that if my husband decides to change the course of his existence, partly by teaching in Southeast Asia, I should presume that he does indeed have my best interests at heart when he says he should go first, and determine if the beds, bathrooms and food quality surrounding his domocile are indeed reasonable accomodations. Much as I love him, he and I both know I'm not a Buddhist Monk, and if he expects me to live like one, well.....he'd never hear the end of it.
4) In sum, the most important thing about dealing with a guy like my husband is that I just trust him, and if I don't, no damned piece of paper is ever gonna make me do so, and if I DO have such issues, better I should live alone in a shrine full of voodoo dolls than make my self miserable for the sake of being with someone. None the less, he has proven that he's not gay, (if you are gay, feel free to insert the word "straight,") predatory, or otherwise self-interested to my detriment.
5) All of the above is null and void outside of the relationship I am part of, for the simple reason that it has now happened, and thus will very likely never happen again, ever. In any relationship, with any person, whether I'm a part of it or not.

AND AS FOR THE TRUST THING.......I KNOW MARTHA TRUSTS ME FOR GOOD REASON; I KNOW I TRUST HER JUST THE SAME. LIVE GREATLY, AND PRESUME NOTHING, IN THE ABSENCE OF EVIDENCE OR A VOLUNTARY ADMISSION.
Peace, all......
