I'm leaving early also
According to a presenter at the American Psychological Association conference, workaholics are the best lovers.
Me? I'm blogging from work.

Not a big suprise. Workaholic men are the most likely to have bought into the idea that they're there to serve and support a woman. When they're not killing themselves working to finance a high lifestyle, they're putting on a hoop-jumping poodle show in the bedroom to prove themselves there too. The oddest thing is that, given their slavery in both facets of their lives, most still think that they're the masters!

Jim, I think you're taking a very narrow view of a workaholic. Believe it or not there are folks who work hard simply because they're driven to, not necessarily because they have some sociopathic fixation with material wealth or the societal trappings of success. I've known plenty of folks in the academic and artistic fields who work hard simply because they love what they're doing or are driven by intellectual curiosity. They could probably earn more money and work less if they chose a less challenging but potentially more lucrative field. It's no surprise that someone like this would be better in the bedroom. Would it be surprising that someone who is lazy in life is also lazy in the bedroom? Who wants a lazy lover? Maybe these people just think that if something is worth doing it's worth doing right. A relationship is certainly something that's worth doing right.

There's also those of us who work hard to create something.
