Isn’t That … Special?
I have a friend. He’s a very good friend. Our friendship is complicated by the fact that we have a complex, romantic past. Oddly enough, I usually feel very comfortable around him. This week, however, I’ve had an odd combination of experiences that test my comfy friend boundaries.
He recently came by to see my fabulous [...]
When “Never” Means “Until Next Time”
Ladies and gentlemen, friends, family, strangers–I’d like to ask a favor of you. Could someone please throw something large, heavy, and possibly jagged at my head? Really, you’d be doing me a favor.
Let’s all think back. Way back to October of 2007. Back in October I was in full swing for the Colorado Springs Gay [...]
I Tried
With the wedding a matter of weeks away and an odd neckline on my dress, I have decided to approach the issue of tan lines. I’d like to avoid having stripey skin for the ceremony and if I’m going to prevent that from happening, I’m going to need to take drastic action.
This was a very [...]
Join the Movement
If exhaustion was sexy I’d have people banging down my door. I’ve decided to make under eye bags, dark circles, blotchy skin, and vacant stares super hot. By this time next year, people will stay up for days at a time to achieve this look. I figure if the scary crack-whore look could be popular [...]
Eye of the Beholder
It’s a bit of a lightening bolt to the spleen when you wake up and realize that you don’t control how the world sees you. We do what we can. We behave in certain ways and we put our best foot forward, but at the end of the day, the impression people take of us [...]
Non-Starters
We’ve all got our deal breakers. Perhaps you’re out to dinner with a man you’ve just started dating and you learn that where you want a half dozen children, his happiest moment in college was the final stitch of his vasectomy. Maybe you’re waiting in line at the movie theater and you discover that he [...]
What’s the Big Deal?
I don’t really see myself as the uber-political type. I vote. I have certain issues that I follow. I even like to debate now and then, but generally, I don’t get too interested. I’m not saying that’s a good thing, it’s just what seems to happen. It may have something to do with not having [...]
That’s Possible, Right?
Once in a while the world throws us such a curve ball that we’re left scratching our heads, wondering if we’re even playing the same game as everyone else.
We’ve all had the great date who never called. The job interview we know we aced before finding out they’ve hired from within. The audition we nailed [...]
One Hell of a Party
Ladies and gentlemen, I apologize for my tardiness in this posting. I realize that I promised a Bachelorette Party Recap, but I have spent the last several days recovering from said party – and now I’m ready to tell all! (At least, all that I can remember!)
The party, as so many parties before it, began with [...]
Stirrings…
A few weeks ago I wrote about being kissed by a nice guy and how it confused me. I hadn’t been kissed in a while and I was conflicted about how I felt being kissed by someone who wasn’t the kisser I was hoping for. You can see by the mess of that sentence why [...]
