Tears

While chatting with Eliza and comparing our tear-filled past few days, I made the comment that tears are allowed - it’s a God given right that comes with the ovaries. 
Women cry; it’s a fact.  We cry when we’re happy, when we’re sad, when we’re mad, when whatever gobshyte we’re dating says/does the wrong thing and [...]

Everywhere I look………

No matter where I go, all I see are lurved up couples.  I should be happy for them, I went so far as to dabble at playing Cupid for one couple and they’re happy (or give every appearance of being happy).  The TV and radio commercials are full of the joys of Valentine’s Day.  Every [...]

So I’ve been thinking!

That there’s so many men out there who’s lives I’ve yet to ruin, who’s very existence I’ve yet to make miserable - how can I just whisk myself off to a nunnery and abandon them like that????  That and the fact I’ve been unable to find a nunnery - yellow pages my arse!
So I’ve decided [...]

Announcement!

I’ve given up on the single thing; it got old……….ok so it’s been mere hours but it’s old, dammit!  So I’m joining a convent and Wonderpooch is eyeballing the priesthood - he got wind of housekeepers who can actually cook, and he’s all ready to go!  Last night, he started piling all his worldly possessions at [...]

Signs!

Signs that the guy you’re seeing just might be married:

Claims to be constantly working

Never invites you to his place, blaming “a fucked up living situation”

Unwilling to come to your side of town to hang out, unless it’s just to hang at your place

Suddenly busy over holidays and unable to see you

Unwilling to meet any of [...]

Fun & games

Yes, it’s been all fun and games since I last posted.  As always, guessing games were thrown into the mix - after all, I wouldn’t have it any other way! 
Friday night I ventured to the Watering Hole with the Snake Charmer - not sure about the others, but we enjoyed ourselves!  Sunday saw me partake in a [...]

Fox News Radio

Here’s another posting that highlights the ignorance and insensitivity surrounding Heath Ledger’s passing.  It’s not too many things that get me riled up to the point I’ll get off my arse and do something, but this got me going.  So I popped an email off to Fox News - let’s see if I hear anything back!  [...]

Judge not lest ye be judged

Today I came across this post from another blogger.  I’d heard a little on the radio while driving to work, but tuned in late and missed the majority of the debate.  FoxNews and MSNBC have also covered the story.  These people (and I use that term loosely!) have plans to protest at the funeral of Heath Ledger, [...]

Without risk, there is no reward.

A fairly true statement, kind of “if you’re not in, you can’t win”.  But what if you get to the point where the risks overshadow the reward?  Do you keep wading in, hoping for a different result?  Or just quit while you’re ahead, even though you’re not ahead………….shit, you haven’t even broke even!!

Comfy yet?

Poor guys - ye just can’t win for losing these days, can ye?  Oh I’m sure you thought you’d made it through the holidays unscathed, you’re feeling comfortable enough to stroll through the mall with the little lady, walking with a little swagger and holding your head up high; oh the arrogance of a clean get-away!  Basking in the bachelorhood [...]

Make or break?!

Can a person’s name sometimes act as a deterrent when it comes to dating them?  I recently stumbled across a guy with a surname that just just screams move along!  So I did; he might be married, he might be a great guy, but given the name I don’t intend to find out!
How about their profession?  [...]

As I’ve mentioned before……….

We all have a past - no shock there.  Actually, if that is shocking to you then you’re reading the wrong blog!
Past loves might have a lot to answer for.  If they fucked with your head so much you have trust issues, then they should be taken out back and shot!  Or they may have treated you [...]

Dating tips revisited!

It never fails!  There’s always one guy out there in dire need of instruction!  Then we see girlfriends who have managed to snag a great guy and we become completely consumed with jealousy!  So, being the generous person that I am, I’ve decided to offer some guidance to the lost souls out there!

Woo her!  Plain and [...]

Women & children first????

Atlanta is currently is a state of panic!  Oh it’s awful!  How will we make it through???
Sleet, snow, and freezing rain were mentioned on the weather forecast!  The city is in shutdown mode, the grocery stores are full of soccer moms wrestling for the last loaf of bread.  The milk and eggs are walking themselves [...]

Goodbyes

Before the panic starts, I’m not saying goodbye!
While out & about tonight I met with friends, one of whom is leaving town this weekend to say goodbye to their dear friend who, after being diagnosed with cancer, has been given days to live.  How do you make that journey knowing what you’re facing?  Is travelling to [...]

Wails & moans!

Eliza today mentioned a horrible topic.  A gut-wrenching, nausea inducing topic.  She mentioned my birthday, and mentioned it well before the accepted time-frame to discuss such a topic; I’m ok with birthdays……….what I’m not ok with is the fact that I’m turning 33. 
The age of Christ as my Mother will undoubtedly refer to [...]

I never want to hear guys complaining again…….

That they practically have to beg for sex!  What started out as an innocent discussion about their hump island list took a dramatic turn when Mr. Cork announced he’d rather play golf in Augusta than have sex with anyone of his chosing.  He defended his statement with spoutings of how golf lasts longer than sex [...]

Hump Island

Who’s on your hump island, your get out of shagging jail free card?  The top 5 celebrities that you’d jump in a heartbeat?  And, in a perfect world, your significant other can’t object!!
I’ve given this serious consideration, and would like to state that this is by no means a final draft, but I’m happy with the [...]

Dreams are weird!

Eliza and I have plans to meet with Meg for dinner next week.  Not having much of a life these days, dinner plans must have been on my mind as I drifted off to sleep.
In my dream, Meg’s son was all over Eliza as he prefers a small waist and perky boobs (neither description could ever apply to [...]

I left work and hurried home………

Listening to tornado warnings on every radio station, with promises of severe weather.  Did we get it??  Well, did we???  NO!  A couple of rumbles of thunder and lots of rain………..very disappointing! 
Course the first rumble of thunder was enough to send Wonderpooch scrambling for cover; the funniest part was he was upstairs alone when it [...]

Job searches at the Watering Hole!

Tonight I met with the Crazy Cajun to help her with resume stuff; laptop in hand, we perched ourselves at the bar and proceeded to look very intellectual………….mission accomplished!! 
It’s amazing the types of people who come through the doors of the Watering Hole.  Tonight we had the pleasure of meeting 2 New Yorkers [...]

When’s the last time you got hit on?

I mean approached by a random stranger, who puts out all the stops trying to impress you?
I remember those days………….if I dig deep into my memory!  I didn’t appreciate it back then though - all those efforts to bed me went to waste……….dammit!  Does it happen now?  Does it fuck!  Why is that??  I’m not [...]

Eliza & I are debating

Whether or not Hilton deserves the death penalty; after hearing that his victim was bludgeoned to death and then decapitated Eliza’s leaning towards the death penalty, but I’m of the mindset that two wrongs don’t make a right.  Nothing is going to change the brutal ending Meredith suffered at his hands, it’s not going to [...]

I used to enjoy……….

Taking Wonderpooch for walks by the river, going on one trail or another.  After the recent events, I’m not so keen to walk those trails alone anymore; I’m not so sure that I could count on Wonderpooch to do anything more than lick any possible assailant to death! 
With the unfortunate news that the body of Meredith Emerson [...]

Anti abortion & Pro Death Penalty……

How can you claim to be anti abortion, all the while supporting the death penalty?  What makes one so right and the other so wrong? 
I’m not a fan of abortion, especially when it’s being used as a form of birth control.  But I am pro-choice!  If I become pregnant because we’re not being careful, then I’ve got another [...]

Eliza’s being wise today!

She said “Defining something lets us know what the acceptable boundaries of behavior are”.
That statement doesn’t just work in relationships (sorry Mr. M!) but in life in general; I need boundaries, I like knowing when I’m good and when I’m not so good, what’s allowed and what isn’t.  Not that I always play by the [...]

Breaking News!!!!!!

I’m an idiot!!  ‘Nuff said!

Another new year

Oh yeah……….Happy New Year!
Who’s already broken their new year’s resolutions?  Certainly not me - simply because I wasn’t arsed about making any!!  I tried before and always failed miserably - usually only making it for as long as the hangover lasted.  So this year I skipped the whole resolution thing!  And so far, not having changed [...]
