    Word Triggers

    By Valkyrie

    Certain otherwise-innocuous words can be a trigger for some people.  Maybe it's a negative association with the word - a reminder of past trauma or a social faux pas.  It could be a word that becomes an inside joke - an innocent word given a not-so-innocent meaning.  These words make us cringe and avoid them and not really want to explain our reaction to other people.  For me, a certain spring-blooming flower is a word trigger.  I avoid saying the name of this flower because I have  negative ass

Weekly Wrap Up (Apr. 12 - Apr. 18)

Soooo, The other night I woke up with my pillow on the side of my face and I had hair in my mouth and in my nose  I've never had a beard for more than a week before in my life, but I let it grow out over the past 5 weeks. The unibomber had nothing on me  And the eyebrow,s even Albert Einstein would be jealous  So enough was enough and woke up today and got out the cordless waterproof clippers and got rid of the damn beard! Next, got out the actual hairdresser clippers and started to use a #

Things that make me go hmmmmm..

I guess my mind  works differently from a lot of people. Everyday I come across things that make me tilt my head like a German Shepherd and go hmmmm...  (Or in many cases WTF?) I don't  understand why people are wearing masks and gloves while driving alone in a car. Hmm.... I don't understand why when you answer your work phone 'Thank you for calling XYZ, how may I help you' and you hear "Is this XYZ?" Hmm... I don't understand why you post notices all over the place that you

Featured Author: Myr

Well, usually it would be a single story review for our feature today. But, we thought it might be nice to turn the focus onto our fearless leader. With that in mind, we visited Myr's stories and picked some of the various comments from readers to highlight the many stories that Myr has on site. Myr specializes in short stories in the fantasy and sci-fi genres. He generally leaves his readers begging for more, probably because most of his spare time is spent on improving GA and dealing with tech

Weekly Wrap Up (Apr. 5 - Apr. 11)

Has the past month flown by for you too?  It seems like only a little while ago that we were being told to baton down the hatches and start practicing physical distancing. Work days blend into supposedly days off and daily chores and tasks are being done more. As even one member commented, her Dad was washing walls, walls!!!! I see the blogs are starting to really take off. Interesting reading how so many people are dealing with the times as well as their thoughts on it too. Some of your status

I Am Jonas (And What It Was Like in the 90's)

Have you watched a movie so palpable, it feels like you were flipping through a dust-covered photo album?  I Am Jonas is like that for me. This is going to be a heart-tormenting blog entry.  As a proper COVID-19 warning, you might want to social distancing yourself from it if you are not emotionally fortified at the moment.  I need to get it out though.  Stuck in the 9th Hell is too much grinding (yes, I am going to sprinkle comic reliefs throughout the blog).  This blog is not going anywhe

COVID-19 - my inner struggle and what i've done about it

So, i have been home since March 16, 2020. I think working from home, really brought home to me really how serious this virus is. Yes, i'd read about it and all the deaths in China. Read about people trying to get back to Canada and people stuck on cruise ships. But the Bank doing this huge about face and letting us work from home, really made it real. The first few weeks i really struggled. i felt lost and afraid. i could feel it in my back and shoulders, in my chest. It felt like som

GCM G6

Those of you who've read my past blogs know that I'm a Diabetic and use an Insulin Pump to manage it. My current pump is a TSlim: X2 using Glucose Continues Monitoring (GCM) G5. Earlier this year, the Tandem Company released their new pump software using the G6 GCM. The G5 required two daily finger sticks to calibrate it. The G6 requires none. After verifying my information with Tandem, they then contacted my Doctor for a prescription for the software. I then had to take and pass, an 80 min

This gentleman has been on the case since the very start. He has had a daily video and, published this summary. Things are looking up. It looks like we're not going to have the deaths we thought we might. Lockdown may be boring but, better bored than infected with this little monster.

Stuff on my mind

I'm trying to get the hang of this blog thing. This is my second attempt. I have no idea what happened the first time.   So anyway, I've had a lot on my mind lately and I'm not sure how to sort it out in my head. It seems the whole world has flipped upside down and we're living in an alternate universe.  My world had already been in turmoil before all this other stuff happened.  There's nothing more shocking than to find out your child was molested by a trusted family member when

Thoughts from the Faerie Fool

Home on the Range

Last Thursday I was trying to cook something in the oven and was wondering why it wasn't cooking like it should be -- then looked in and noticed the lower element was shorting out and sparking like an arc wielder. They delivered the new range this afternoon.  Brought it in, hooked it up, and were about to leave. Said, "just a moment" and turned the breaker back on.  Good thing I did that because nothing happened.  They double checked their installation of the new cord onto the range and it

Weekly Wrap Up (Mar. 29 - Apr. 4)

Well, I'm kind of tired of asking the usual question at the past 3 or 4 updates  As I was looking through the blogs and activity this week, I noticed a couple of things that I thought I'd mention. First off, for anyone reading @Dabeagle's story Corners you will see really high numbers of reviews and likes and overall interaction. I think that with so many of us home bound, Dabeagle has found for the lack of a better expression, a captive audience and growing audience. I also noticed it
