Talked to BabySis today. She was venting about BabyHubby. He tosses dirty clothes in the general direction of the hamper; 10% hit rate, if she’s lucky. He NEVER scrapes or rinses his dishes before depositing them precariously in the sink, further cementing BabySis’ distinct lack of love for doing dishes. He takes the trash out on trash days (Tues &...

You feel like a candle in a hurricane, Just like a picture with a broken frame. Alone and helpless, like you’ve lost your fight, but you’ll be alright. You’ll be alright.’Cause when push comes to shove you taste what you’re made of. You might bend ’til you break ’cause it’s all you can take. On your knees you look up,...

Apparently, Old Friend is thinking too much lately. After the inter-FEAR-ence of Friday, he called yesterday afternoon asking if I’d like company again last night. Easy answer, “Yes!” From there, the day took a short detour through hell. But, I kept my eyes on the prize (his visit later on) to get me through. Incentivizing myself like this helps me...

Old Friend came by unannounced last evening (something relatively new for him) making small talk about my neighbors (mutual friends) having left on a week long vacation, and after awhile, under his breath, asked if he could come back later, after the kids were in bed.

While this has certainly expanded more than one of my horizons in the last two weeks, it has definitely added to my already out-of-control time wasting proclivities! But how...

The thermometer outside is registering 106 degrees. I don’t even WANT to know the heat index. A friend said today that it’s too hot for sex…even in A/C. Amen.

I find myself bound by all sorts of self-imposed restrictions in the love life department. To my mind, I have no business engaging in a ‘formal, full-blown relationship’ as defined pretty much anyway you’d like to define one. Here’s why: 1. There is much residual ‘damage’ yet to un-do where my children still living at home are...

It’s August 1st, and officially the start of the 30 Day Challenge. I’m excited, as I’ve already learned quite a bit about a whole host of Web 2.0 sites and tools that I knew existed, but didn’t really know why or how I’d use. Now I do, and I see all kinds of possibilities for new ways to market online (which would be the entire point...
