    Upcoming Events Reminder

    By Valkyrie

    First, I'd like to wish all our American members a very Happy Thanksgiving!  I will be spending the day at my aunt's, stuffing my face with turkey and all the sides   I'd be perfectly happy with a plate full of stuffing and gravy, though.  🤤 I am thankful for everyone who makes this site as awesome as it is!  I'm also thankful for everyone who participates in site events, such as the anthologies and other contests run throughout the year.     Speaking of site events, we have two

I'm not a slut...

I was looking back at a lot of my blog posts and noticed a lot of them had a common theme of always rambling on about a guy... usually a different one every time. But I'm not a slut. Most of the time nothing ever happens with the guys I mention in here. Maybe it's a curse...w hich is also why I've decided to stop talking about them in here for the most part. I was going to blog about a guy tonight, but decided against it.   Well, since I decided not to talk about a guy, I don't have much else

Mary, Mary, Quite Contrary

How does your garden grow? We are about to find out. I have recently started an herb garden. I figure I use them often enough so I might as well try my hand at growing my own. There is just one small, possible problem.   That proverbial

I can't go on

I feel so guilty for what I'm about to do. I've bugged everyone aroud me for the chance to prove I can hang with everyone around me. I worked hard and made sacrafices to rise above the naysayers who said I wouldn't last. I had to prove them all wrong and at least give it a try.   I failed.   Still, I'm glad I tried. If nothing else, I can say I hung in there, but in the end, I was way out of my league. Some people even tried to warn me that I wouldn't be able to see this through, but I woul

Fabian

Have you ever listened to the ads on your local radio station and wonder if anyone was actually there?   Tonight, as we were heading to our favorite Mexican restaurant, the station played an ad for the local daffodil festival, which just happened to occur today. They were expounding on the Grand Floral Parade encouraging listeners to flock to downtown Tacoma, Puyallup, Sumner, and even Orting. The ad was completely worthless; and, who wants to go to Orting? They practically closed the town thi

Bootylicious

Ok, so I got a lot of reading and writing done today, and I can honestly say that I'm all caught up I've been a little preocuppied this week with Taylor and his new car. We took it for a spin as soon as he got his license on Friday, then we spent about four hours in his garage polishing the rims with Mothers. Man, talk about a good arm workout :pickaxe: :pickaxe: :pickaxe:   To those of you who are wondering, I just sent chapter four of Time In A Bottle off to my editor, the Great Talonri

Saturday and Bored

I will be so glad when I get back to work. The past three and a half months have been totally not fun. The truth be known, I've always had a tendency to poo-poo co-workers with sprained joints for all their complaining about not being able to do anything. I mean a broken bone is definitely something bad, but a sprain? Come on, the word doesn't even sound bad. Broken bone, torn ligament, bruised tendon, now those sound painful and probably deserve a get well card, but a sprain, or even worse, a s

I got a 44...

... so did Davey even with half of our answers being different... Rich got a 36 Pretty accurate if you ask me...   Below is Dr. Phil's test. (Dr. Phil scored 55; he did this test on Oprah - she got a 38.) Some folks pay a lot of money to find this stuff out!   Don't be overly sensitive! The following is pretty accurate and it only takes 2 minutes.   Answers are for who you are now --- not who you were in the past. Have pen or pencil and paper.   This is a real test given by the

the rules of the car...

... as told by a five year old.   Rule #1 - Kissing.   Rule #2 - No smoking.   Rule #3 - No eating.   Rule #4 - No drinking.   Rule #5 - If you run out of gas, then put gas in your gas tank.   Rule #6 - If your tire is out of air, fill it up with air.   Rule #7 - You turn on the radio and listen to music. If it's too loud, then turn it down and if it's too quiet, then turn it louder.   Rule #8 - You have to keep your seatbelt on until Mom or Dad turns the car off.   Rule #9 - I

100 Blogs Later

Hi all,   I thought quite a bit about what I wanted to do for my 100th entry, since, though rationally it's only an artificial milestone and not any more significant than any other blog entry, it's still ostensibly special. Anyway, my thoughts ranged from creating a sort of "blog quiz" that would be taken from the previous 99 entries (decided that would be way too much work for me, and few people would feel inclined to sit there and take the thing anyway) to making it into a silly story (coul

An Honor

I don't even know where to begin. I'm sitting here looking at the announcements, the new URL and the tag next to my name, and I still can't believe it's finally happened. I'm Hosted. When I first found GA, I remember bookmarking the page and thinking to myself that I'd be back. I didin't join the forum because I wasn't sure if I'd fit in or not, then I went away for like 4 months. When I came back, it was because of Dom Luka, the greatest net author of all time, in my opinion. I was reading The

Shoe Whore?

I was talking to Viv the other night and I came out, sorta.   For years I have been maligned by my sisters and labeled with the title of shoe whore. I may still be in denial honestly. I only have around Ten or so pairs of shoes. So yeah the average guy probably only has like four. Does that really qualify me as being a shoe whore? Couldn't I just be above average in that respect, or just happily over achieving? It's not like I have a room dedicated to foot ware, whats a couple of pairs of work
