Departing Ends Anew
In a week he will be gone and although I know he will return… I am starting to feel a little sad. I know that I have a busy month ahead of me; however, in just a few short months.. he’s become the one that I want to go to…
Dedicated Evasive Automatic
This morning while getting ready I caught a few minutes of The Recruit with Al Pacino…more or less the movie is about the training of CIA Agents and the twists and turns are constant. First you think that Layla really did get cut from the school only to realize that it was…
Living Small
There are big moments in our life, where all we can do is ‘live small’… almost microscopic. Sure, we’ll pick up, join in and get with the program; however, in certain situations and for undefined amounts of time, there is validity in just pulling back, taking stock. If you’re a…
Don’t Ever Assume
It’s never easy when you meet someone new to really ‘know’ what it is that they are thinking. Yes, you can ask; however, there are certain situations in which that state of unknown is sort of appealing. I’ve never been one to play hard to get or coy, when it…
Online Dating No, No!
In my profile I have posted that I am interested in meeting Caucasian males… I do not have a laundry list of requirements; however, that’s a big one. I’ve recently received a slew of emails from Black Men telling me how disappointed they are… or that some women have avoided…
Does Everything Align
One of the funniest things about meeting new people is ‘thinking’ that you have your preference list all thought out; however, there’s always the possibility that you meet someone where you have absolutely nothing in common. Sure, you can share a few likes i.e. chili, political view and being left-handed,…
The Red Dragon, Drag On… My Date With A Muppet
I went on a date last night… his picture was a little odd; however, I am not a fan of all of my pictures either…so I went with it. Well, I need to rethink my approach. We decided to meet and when he showed up, he was in the brightest…
Traveling Home
Well, it’s my last official day in Canada as I will be driving home today; however, I have the luxury of taking my sweet time as I travel back. I have a few stops to make along the way and am in no real hurry to get home…but, I do…
Eagle
This was taken right after picking up a perch from the lake… there was a Seagull that ‘thought’ it had a meal; however, the powerful gusts made by an Eagle’s wings indicated to the Seagull that it should drop the fish. It did. I’ve shot this Eagle for several years…
Snapper
Snapping Turtles have always been a fascination of mine; however, with Animal Planet’s show Call of the Wildman the allure of the Snapping Turtle has been reinvigorated! I have not seen many up close; however, this one pictured to the left was very close! I was not only able to…
Headed North
Well, it was all set, I was going to Canada for a week of R, F & R…Rest, Fishing & Relaxation… overly excited to get there I wanted to leave at 4 AM.. I was traveling solo, so there was absolutely no reason as to why I could not make…
Retiring Mr. Cute
Well, it’s been a good run and in truth there were a few isolated exceptional moments; however, those do not make up for the consistent behaviors that were all too hard to endure. So, with enthusiasm and excitement I announce that Mr. Cute will no longer be a subject of…
Jail Date
I’ll see him when he gets out of jail! Who knew that someone I could feel so connected to would be in jail? We’ve spent countless hours on the phone and with each call it is more exciting than the last! In many ways I feel as if I’ve known…
Love
A man was wandering around in a field, thinking about how good his wife had been to him and how fortunate he was to have her. He asked God, “Why did you make her so kind-hearted?” The Lord responded, “So you could love her, my son.” “Why did you make…
Make A List…..
It’s no secret that Mr. Cute has positioned himself in the No Way category; however, the audacity of this person is simply comical. I recently made a request for the rest of my ‘stuff’ and his reply was to provide a list. Now, that would make perfect sense if we…
The Bipolar Contractor
One of the most arduous tasks is that of hiring someone to work on your home…OK, I admit I turned to Craigslist because I was hoping to make the situation mutually beneficial. Times are tough for a lot of people and it was my hope that my luck of finding…
I Don’t Need Roller Coasters
Yesterday….
The movie The Wedding Singer was funny; however, not necessarily my favorite, YET, there’s a classic line that recent events has played over and over in my head… It was after Robby was stood up at the altar… his girlfriend stated that she could not marry him because he was…
Another Dating Fail!
With school starts fast approaching I sort of feel like I’ve got a brand-new box of crayons… with my new approach to dating; however, this latest venture has proven to be, well – dismal, at best. I’m keeping my head up and my options open, yet, I had a very…
