Our Love Story: Crazy Glue.
Our love story is something else. Crazy doesn't scratch the surface but... it's real. And, strong. And well... actually, one of our last arguments was about glue, so, funny I should mention it.
I met him in a public place for tea after just a few lines of Instant Message… Read full post »
Shocking! Catholic Church Doesn't Support Gay Marriage!
Sometimes, I like to point out the obvious and treat it like a grand revelation, but today, the Washington Post wins. According to this article, the Archdiocese of Washington has noted that they will have to break contracts they have with the City if a proposed gay-marriage-related law passes.

Bread Kills!
1. More than 98 percent of convicted felons are bread users.
2. Fully HALF of all children who grow up in bread-consuming households score below average on standardized tests.
3. In the 18th century, when virtually all bread was baked in the home, the average life expectancy was less… Read full post »
Evolutionary Psychology: Cavemen Behaving Badly
Is evolution going backward? Are we okay with this? It seems like finding out new and fascinating information about how our caveman brains worked is being used to give people license to go ahead and behave like Neanderthals. Proudly.
Scientists discovering, hypothesizing, testing, and confirming the… Read full post »
Poetry Thursday: The Eucharist (with gratuitous Blasphemy)
Warning: there are allusions to a very sacred story in the poem you are about to read... I am not suffering delusions of holiness, I just really adore how the story parallels a transformation in my life... I intended no blasphemy, but it might have snuck in... also, it follows no known… Read full post »

Friday Rant: I'm a Punk Foodie!
I guess I’ve become a punk foodie. You know how punk rockers eschew any artist that experiences some degree of commercial success because they become sellouts and their work turns to crap? I'm there.
I’m mad at some of my formerly favorite restaurants for making it big. It seems like… Read full post »
Thursday Haiku: Ode to Animal Envy.
When I kiss you, I
Wish I were a butterfly
To taste us all over
When I hold you, I
Wish I were an octopus
To grip every bit
When I see you, I
Wish I were a dragonfly
To sprint to your arms
When I love you, I
Wish I were a… Read full post »
Dirty Poetry Thursday: Cinquain Edition.
Feels like I'm always the one makin the first move on my lover lately, so, this one is for him...
First to arch my back to say I want it,
First to slide my fingers under these clothes,
First to mount you and grind and grin,
First to grip you from… Read full post »
What sex is like for (some) women.
Preface: Fingerlakeswanderer wrote specifically to Mr. E asking about what sex is like for men, and he answered (with what could easily be my favorite post of the month!); consequently he volleyed the ball back to her court asking in turn what sex was like for women. Well, this is my… Read full post »
Can You Love a Narcissist? I'm Up for It.
I find it difficult to believe that I am not enough for him! I have been ‘too much’ for so many before, yet this one feels I am not enough. He insists on trying to make me believe that he is intended for multiple partners, and for many weeks, I believed… Read full post »
Happy Haiku Thursday

our rhythm is song
bedsprings creaking the lyrics
love to dance with you
cabernet in hand
when i crave your orgasm

Apparently, THINKING is a major drag.
I promised myself when I started publicly "blogging" that I wouldn't slip into the stereotypical caricature of the constant angry ranter, and, well, I'm not that angry... but I will rant for a moment.
So, when did people stop thinking? I mean, seriously. It seems that a large hunk of… Read full post »
Naughty Haiku Thursday: 3 parts dirty, 1 part sweet.
I can still feel you
Though many an hour has passed
You change me when you're inside.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Drizzling rain, I wonder
How he tastes when dripping wet
Thirsty, Soaked, Breathless.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Can you tell from there
By the flushing of my skin
I just touched myself?

Can Centuries of Eastern Wisdom be Horribly Wrong?
Everyone knows that not that far into a new relationship we do silly things like google our squeeze, check their daily horoscopes for insight on how best to make them happy, and run a variety of pseudo-scientific compatibility tools against what we know about them to see if the cosmos give… Read full post »
