I sit and look out my apartment window at all the steam-powered trains and cars going by. Sometimes, there is so much steam that it fogs my view. Everyone, including me, wants to be the next inventor of something steam powered. This is undoubtedly the way of the future. I see through my window the men walk by dressed to the nines with their tales and top hats. The ladies with their fancy parasols and gowns. All the steam...

It was not beautiful, but it worked and was safe. My parents told me I co...

I still sit here wondering how my marriage got this way. Sage has started working full-time after six months of fun and games with us. She works late at night, so we don't have the freedom we once had. I love Stacy, and Sage is a wonderful lady, but I want our old life back.

Oh dear, where to begin with my fascination with uniforms? When I was just a young girl, I loved playing with my dad's police uniform. That is where this all started. I would put his hat and coat on, and his coat would drag on the floor as I walked. My parents thought it was so cute that they would take pictures of me being a lady policewoman. I loved it because of the feel of the cloth and the way it made me look. My mom...
