Men Behaving Badly - AKA - Bad Boyz
What is it with famous men lately? I don’t get it, really I don’t. I mean, it’s not so much that they are screwing around on their wives; it’s that why do they think it’ll remain private and that the press won’t devour every lurid detail?
It’s the new “outing”. A coming out of the closet [...]
Waiting For My Rocket To Come
I was chatting, as I am wont to do, on another chat home.
It was a nice chat and that person on the other end of the internet spectrum suggested that I should continue to write on my blog. That’s it’s been far too long. And while I can’t disagree with them there’s far too many [...]
End Of The Road
There is no question that when a relationship ends, there’s a death of sorts.
Whether it’s an actual case of a stopping of breath, a mutual agreement that a couple has finished, or a storming out of the door; it’s a death.
It isn’t a bad thing always but regardless of the reasons of loss, there is [...]
Are The Buzzard’s Circling?
ALTERNATE TITLE…..
“Are You There God? It’s Me, Scoundrel”
“I hear it’s your Birthday (da na na na)
It’s my birthday too!”
(the Beatles)
Well, it’s my birthday today and there’s only one thing that keeps popping in my head. It’s a quote from “Absolutely Fabulous.”
“I don’t know WHY we celebrate the fact that she’s lived so bloody long!”
I mean, [...]
Your Empty Bed
This room is so hollow
Even with tears filling my eyes
I expect to find you peripherally
You’re not underfoot
Blocking my way to the bathroom
Expecting another sound
I miss you
More than I thought I would
I look to the corner and you’re not there
Stepping over you seemed to be natural
Worrying for you was my only thought
That hasn’t abated
You’re still here
The [...]
Do You Remember The Time
There are those who will quibble with me about this and I say bring it on.
It’s been a week now that Michael Jackson has died and yet it’s the first time I’ve written anything about it. I guess I just didn’t know what to say for so long.
Have I cried? No. Was I in shock? [...]
Sign Me Up!
Warmth.
I’ve taken it for granted – I’ll plead guilty on that account.
Dwelling in the cold for so long1 I thought it wouldn’t end.
The sun is shining longer now. Around 7:30 in the evening the sun is setting. Though it’s still dark in the morning I salivate in the “after work” life.
Doggie is getting longer [...]
Just Stop And Look
This morning I was doing my duty as a dog owner, poop bag in hand, walking the dog when I took a second and just looked up.
There it was, at 7:10 am1 the moon shining in the sky while the sun was coming up.
In these moments when I feel crushed about debt, loss of hope [...]
Honeymoon’s Over Folks!
We all knew it was coming, didn’t we? I mean the love affair had to end sooner or later, I just didn’t think it would be this soon.
Already, Republicans are calling the new King a socialist.
Ummm, well, are they surprised? And why is “Socialist” a four letter word?
MSNBC titled an article “Obama’s new strategy: [...]
Second Guessing Is An Art.
It’s no secret, to those who read, that I’m one of the unlucky few who wear their hearts on their sleeve.
Having been told on numerous accounts that I’m an “emotional person who takes things personally” that it’s just become an echo, really: Bouncing on every cave wall in the area.
But I do hurt when I [...]
