Haaaa I loved Newhart! I only have 2 boys though lol

I know it's something I am unable to stop or change, I just wish I didn't have to bury any more friends. I'm so far away from the rest of my gay family, sometimes it feels like the only time I hear anything is for another person passing on too young. It's not something I want to dwell on, but it keeps hitting home when I least expect it.
I'm so glad I have my family, and that I know I am loved and also know the ones I love know that I love them, their love and support means everything right now.
It also helps that Her Furriness is constantly checking up on me, furry snuggles, purrs and headbutts are comforting.

Winkin, Blinkin and Nod?

Dreams , wondering if I will ever actually get there, knowing that it is up to me and nobody else to make it happen. It can be a lot of pressure sometimes.

I am wondering what the roads will be like by the time I have to head to work in a couple of hours. I am experienced when it comes to driving in these conditions but I am not so sure about everyone else. I hope there's no cancellations.

That GIANT mountain of snow at the end of my driveway. Why does the plow always have to block it after it is cleared? "Fairy vs errands" may be amusing or frustrating today. I am only playfully competitive and I don't want to peeve off mother nature but I don't want this snow to win!

Where I would be if I could pick up and go anywhere I wanted RIGHT NOW.

I am thinking about how quiet it is for a friday night as I float in my daydreams and look out the window.

I look forward to the day when we all march hand in hand in the streets across the world in unity, as one.

I am thinking about today, the energy and sincerely hoping that I don't get overwhelmed by the list I hope to get accomplished this weekend.

Am I *really* going to have to clean out the cupboards and fridge to do this grocery shopping? *sigh*

My brain feels scattered but yet I have this calm energy that is holding everything in its floating place :)

I'm digging how Spring feels not unlike having a crush. The increasing warmth as the days lengthen, the vibrancy of emergent colors, the air more fragranced. That lightness of spirit buoyed on reborn freshness. Intoxicants both, delectably mercurial.

I wonder how quickly I can type up a case study and upload this video to givit. Jeeze! I am so burnt out on school. Only 6 more weeks.....It cannot end soon enough. I. Am. Ready.

I am wondering if I should actually tape my putting the trailer together adventure. Surely 16 hours of that would be boring!

How animal abuse shock photos on Facebook need to have a warning before viewing.

i don't need the images stuck in my head.

i wish there was no such thing as animal abuse

Next week. Next term.

How blessed I am. He is the most beautiful man I have ever known, inside and out! My daughter and I are both blessed by his presence in our lives.

Mind
 

I hope everyone is happy and safe!

On my mind....
 

A certain muffin, as always.

Everything and nothing all at once!

This resembles my mind today, I believe.

Friends and my energy.

I think I just found some clarity in the middle of all of those thoughts. Namaste.

I am sitting here in a quandry, as to why some can be so cruel, perhaps they don't mean to be but they seemingly are unaware as to how the words they write or speak can cut to the core of someone.

What prompted this vent, is that today I received an email in regards to a picture I have posted somewhere, it is with a friend and shows us smiling. The email was written as such " I notice you have two different women showing in your pics, my friend wants to know if you are the blonde one or the disfigured one beside her." I was quite taken aback by this as I am the one she is referring to as disfigured, I have looked at the picture and have no idea what she is referring to. My response to her was, perhaps your "friend" could identify what she sees as a disfigurement, which happens to be me as I don't see one.

I am trying to grasp why I can't shake this and I think I have determined that it has brought back a memory from my childhood, when a man in my neighbourhood called me a monkey. Obviously this happened many years ago but has stayed with me, again a person uttering something which has left a scar.

I will no doubt get past this, because I am a strong, confident and yes an attractive individual, but it still hurts that someone who doesn't know me
has lashed out at me.

So, if anyone reading this can take something away from it, please think twice before you write a disparaging remark or utter something in anger or in an offhanded manner, for you never know what those words may do to that person on any given day.

Tired in a good way,
a wedding this afternoon
a the great Sushi from lunch

My icecream is almost gone already, how did that happen? *blush*

Going back to work tomorrow, after being gone (ill, with a touch of depression) for 2.5 weeks...I'm feeling pretty good now...but a little anxious about having been gone so long.
