Once i hit submit I don't go back but I always find an error or wording problem somewhere after it gets published. I edit pretty heavily but get to a point where i don't find the problems anymore. I haven't gone back and fixed anything so far.

Bacon/chicken sacchettini with a rose sauce and fresh parm/reggiano. Handful of green grapes.

I have a pretty well equipped home gym, i just decided to buy a piece of equipment per year instead of a gym membership.

What is your favourite physical activity excluding sex?

Quote by sprite

Sorry, ominonicromiumcon badgers, but yeah, got a new one on its way. Micro-micro. Stories will need to be exactly 1.5 words long. should be up sometime in October.

Why can't you just behave yourself instead of constantly stirring up trouble? You should model your behaviours on those of that lovely Jen woman, she is so sexy and elegant. Clever too!

Yes, often when I was younger. We had a drive-in here until recently that did occasional nostalgia nights but it too is now closed.

HYE had sex on a watercraft?

I nearly always shop alone; I hate shopping so get it done as quickly as possible. Having anyone else along slows me down.

Can you sail a sailboat?

Morning all, coffee for me please. We had our first dusting of snow last night but its already melted. I blame Sprite for cursing me for mentioning snow to me yesterday. I'm kind of pleased to hear Tennessee is colder than Canada though; sorry David!

To me its not really winter until it hits -20C.

Speaking of Led Zep I just learned the main riff for Kashmir last night. I must have hammered it out for about 30 minutes straight. Has fucking crunch!

Greek yogurt with muesli and fresh raspberries.

Great question. Sunrise by the tiniest margin because it starts a new day but sunset for love and romance.

Gas fireplace or natural wood fireplace?

Why doesn't someone invent purses that change colour and can be folded in different sizes as appropriate to outfit and event?

Write my own, there's a lot of skeletons to consider.

Bicycle or motorcycle?

As far as I know 25 years; she 23 me 48. Yes I am a dirty bastard. 😈

Well I guess we could start with a hug....certainly not passing.

This is a good reminder for me. I used to meditate but found the only time available was in the evening. It was relaxing but also very energizing to the point where I had trouble sleeping so I stopped. Time for a retry, perhaps in the morning this time.

And I may be bat shit crazy. 😊

Congrats Milik/David L! In my head I think I always thought you already had an Omnium. Massively impressive body of work!!!

I generally don't feel stress or get depressed and I'm not sure my advice is useful in that I take on both as an adversary to be beaten to dust. Kind of a 'fuck you' attitude toward both. For whatever reason this is a strong motivator for me, maybe because I just like a fight.

Lots of great advice here though and the number 1 for me is get out in nature, the woods, touch rocks and trees and water. This has been a huge part of my lifestyle since I was a kid and I am convinced this is the main thing that keeps me on an even keel.

#2: fill your life with good people. Folks who are negative, make you feel bad/unhappy/'less than' are fucking worthless, cut them loose.

Interesting, I was also a PM in my last job and was PM for a variety of large IT and construction projects which is somewhat astounding given I have zero qualifications and these were all multi-year, multi-million dollar projects. I don't miss it at all, you spend too much time arguing with fools.

Went for a long walk today and apparently they are shooting some major TV or film production by one of the trails I walk regularly. They used less trucks to shoot "Chicago" in Toronto. I may pop by tomorrow and see if I can get a cameo. I don't work for scale though. LOL

Hope everyone's gearing up for a great weekend.

Hey all, I'll have a chai and go sit quietly in the corner. Maybe I'll scribble down a bit of a story in my trusty notebook. Or not. Happy Wednesday.

Congrats to MrKlaus for the win, AndreaDetroit and Arconath for podium as well as the Top 10. Really impresssive number of stories. Big ups for all who participated. And Jen. Especially Jen....😋

cold-pressed clementine/orange/strawberry juice

Hi all, been kind a busy this past 6 months and not much time for Lush. Hopefully I'll be around a bit more. Trust all is well for y'all. I'd like a tall, icy cold glass of fresh-squeezed orange juice please. Just make sure the oranges are from Spain.

There is a G7 conference in Alberta, Canada this year. Trump says he is putting tariffs on Canada because of poor border security. Under Canadian law convicted felons are not permitted to enter Canada except under special permit. Canada, demonstrating the strength of their border security then refuses to allow Trump to enter Canada (to the utmost glee of the other G7 nations.) As an olive branch Canada offers Trumpy time onscreen via Starlink which unfortunately crashes at the worst possible moment.

Get off your ass karma and make this happen!

16 million people, male and female experienced domestic violence in the US in 2024. Of those I expect the vast majority are 'vanilla' relationships (or lack of relationship.) So maybe vanilla relationships are the problem? An often repeated argument about BDSM is that the participants are 'damaged', most typically from childhood. So that would lead me to conclude that vanilla families that are dysfunctional lead to subsequent BDSM activities later in life. As has been posted more eloquently above there are far too many nuances and differences to automatically conclude bdsm (or vanilla) is bad.

Canada Goose vs Bald Eagle - winter, frozen lake between the two countries

Outcome: Draw but the eagle retreated despite conjecture that the goose may have been ill before the fight started.

I’m about to become a human pin cushion with my acupuncturist, but he’s helping me so much! Stories seem to flow after my appts. 😊

This is really interesting and makes sense given acupuncture is about restoring proper 'flows' in the body's systems. Acupuncture for writer's block! lol

Those beignets look suspiciously like they are from Cafe du Monde, an American company. Fortunately I have arrived with Canadian beavertails which are far more exceptional by every culinary measure. There will be a 25% tariff for American purchasers. "Fat Tuesday"? Is that a new American holiday for the cheeto guy?

I am just having breakfast now at 3:26PM. Having a giant bowl of oatmeal with a diced nectarine and blueberries sprinkled with cinnamon.
