A repost from my old SFW blog, I was reminded of this yesterday as we went out to buy a new appliance. Long story, but the staff member who helped us was surprised with our patience. (And we had not waited long at all) Honestly, in this "new normal" with lines and "physical distancing" and …
Stuff and nonsense!
The other day, I had an issue with my iPad, the short version, I ended up having to reset it to factory settings. I was so upset. I had a lot of “stuff” on my iPad. Stuff I did not want to lose. Stuff I had been saving. I used alot of F-bombs about it. …
Ego much?
Yesterday we had a conversation (again) about the selfishness of individuals in society, and how this is leading to anti-social behaviour, like mowing down a bunch of innocent people with a van, because we can’t get a date.. I’m not usually a huge fan of Freud. But I think his model is perfect in this …
Why Blog?
(Re-post from an old SFW blog) I know a lot of people don’t understand why people blog. It seems so ego filled. I can’t speak for everyone, but I can speak for myself. In grade eight, I discovered the written word. It took me so many wonderful places. I consumed every book of fiction in the …
Signs, signs everywhere signs..

As with most bloggers who write about their real life, I don't use real names, to protect the identities of the guilty. I have named my loves by their astrological symbols. Taurus, Gemini …

A few others.... All demanding my time and attention. Sometimes it just gets to be too much. I need to retreat. Into my head. Into my happy place. …
Burning Rage
Last night we burnt the last remanent of my rage. A year ago, I was not in a good place. My anger and hurt feeling bubbled up to all parts of my life. Threatening everything I held dear. I stormed. I screamed. I cried. I hit. I fumed. I brooded. I spied. I snooped. I …
The hangover
My body aches in places I did not know I had. My head is like a giant cotton ball. I can't move from the bed, I want to lie here all day. Last night was out of this world. He took me places I have never been. I was shattered, put back together, and broken …
Strange
Why is it that the pursuit of strange is such a aphrodisiac? I love the flirtatious beginnings of any "relationship". The building feeling of desire and need. My heart always jumps a bit whenever I see I have a message from a new admirer. Ohhhh, I think, here we go... and I climb into the …
