Random banter and movie watching.

I found a local orphanage I had been told about. Going to meet the kids next week and talk to them about English lessons.

Waking up to a PM ... The PS on the end made me grin big

He thinks I'm wonderful. :awww:

Going to an orphanage this afternoon and seeing the happiness of the Director's face when I offered to do some English tuition with the kids.

The biggest of the furkids practically pulled me out of bed so that she could hop up and sleep with her daddy.

The other two furkids greeting me when I came out of the shower, and then following me back and forth in the house before finally walking me to the door. They always give the greatest most loving send offs :)

Knowing that its Friday and I get the whole weekend with Him

One week from tomorrow, our Very large furkid will be on the trailer and on his way to live with us! I am so excited I can barely sit still! :)

A good morning message, so sweet!

Waking up and partially remembering a dream - still smiling. It was simple and innocent but it was comforting. The energy reminded me that I am making the best decisions for me and I believe I am on the right track to live the way I have wanted to for awhile now.

A mating pair of these (red bellied woodpeckers) nearby.
Makes me smile.

They are so beautiful! *S Thanks for sharing this :)

Fridayness has made me smile.... Tomorrow I don't have to get up. The fact that this means that I probably won't be able to sleep again tomorrow morning, but the possibility makes me grin.

This: (I might have cried a little too....)

What made you smile today....
 

Made a new friend today. Intriguing. I enjoy meeting people with gentle natures-- and great wits. I'm wondering if her name here conveys a love of birds-- or a "warning" *wink*. I've enjoyed her messages and am looking forward to corresponding with her more.

Really great coffee-- Not black as I can't really stomach it bitter. All that acid is killer on the digestive tract! Besides,... I like my coffee strong, sweet, and creamy... "Just like I like my [femmes]". LOL! *Ten points if you get the (sorta kinda) movie reference from the 80's. One hint: Leslie Nielsen*

Snow. It's beautiful. And it jacks up my plans and errands for the day COMPLETELY as my left windshield wiper is acting up. But on a good note, it gives me the excuse to change back INTO pajamas after my shower this morning and enjoy-- Oh, oh, PLEASE let me enjoy-- a stress-free day.

Side Note Funny: Driving a few days ago in the rain and snow as we were already out and about running errands... I already have limited visibility, a temperamental windshield wiper, and I am not sure where the building is though I know the general area... trying to find the Center for the Hearing and Visually Impaired. I was taking my friend / one of my roommates there; she has horrible vision, is nearly fully blind. (No wonder she always flirts with me-- she can't really see what I look like). And while I see well enough to drive at this point, the entire excursion is a "Comedy of Errors"-- but still. I look over at her as I am trying to focus on a sign that I THINK directs us to the right building, and then, the whole situation hits me: I start laughing, grin over at her before asking, "Is it just me, or are you enjoying the irony in this too?"

I learned that my female friend (she is pansexual) has church associates with "concerns" about her having two men as roommates. They don't know I am FTM although they told her: "While Nicholas genuinely seems like a really good-hearted young man, and we're not really worried that he'd do anything inappropriate, Bill is... well.... It just doesn't 'look right', your having two men as roommates." I had to laugh because SHE is the one constantly making advances towards us. She has no issue with casual sex. I don't DO casual sex-- I'm only sexually/physically intimate with a woman when she and I are dating and considering that there is a possibility in the future for more to develop. I'm picky as hell about who I'll share myself with in that manner. In fact, I told a friend in chat about it, that I have had to sit down and have "the talk" with her twice this week: that while she is really sweet, I am JUST her friend and do not see her that way, that I have no desire or intent to have a romantic or sexual relationship with her... etc. etc. Yes, it has gotten to the point where I've had to go from tactful to blunt.

But her "living with two men" is the concern? LMAO! Sorry.... The irony is just amusing me to no end today!

So now,...

Mas café por favor.... *Heads back to the kitchen for a refill before getting his shower and attempting to awaken completely*

Being asked to help out at the Mr. LA Leather contest tomorrow night and bringing Justin, which means..... she is wearing chaps!!! *Big Smiles* *Big Smiles* *Big Smiles*

Reading so many wonderful posts here, helping friends run errands and watching "recent additions" on netflix!

You walked into the room and made my eyes hurt...
 

Waking up to this little face staring at me. The highlight of my life <3

Listening to a couple of elder women talk about their childhoods. You can never underestimate the value of those who came before us.

I put something in the mail today, that has a March 30 deadline. I was nominated for something and invited to submit a manuscript. I have a one in 36 chance of being selected. I'm trying to stay realistic, and I've had so much rejection on that front over the years, but still, it made me smile at the post office to open that little metal door and drop my big envelope down the shiny chute.
