Ha ha! Love this costume.
I am normally a pink fifi, but sometimes get to be a different type of pet.

I was worried bout it for an hour, she probably forgot about it 10 minutes later.

One of these days, and I fear it will be soon, I won't be able to hold my tongue. She just cost us $1600 in ruined materials because there's not enough masking tape in the world to keep her between the lines and apparently drop cloths and cleaning spilled paint before it dries are unfathomable concepts - after being told twice.

Jesus fucking christ, I'd...

Here a little secret that no one else knows:

When I get depressed, I scald myself in the shower. The pain is more intense than cutting and doesn't leave any permanent marks to raise questions from others.

I've been doing it nightly for the last three months.

I won't ask for help because I'm afraid I'll be put back on anti-depressants and lose my career...

interesting, I never thought of that.

I never felt so depressed to do that so I guess my oppinion doesn't matter here... Just sending some hugs!

I was told today that I'm too private for my own good. Those were not the exact words, but it was certainly the intention. I couldn't deny it. I agreed whole heartedly. Most of what I do or say is a distractor to keep your attention away from the real me at the core. The part of me that both dances with demons and finagles...

What are your top three greatest fears?
cassiekoi:
Sorry it took me so long to get back to you... CRAZY week! So, my question is... What keeps you from being the real you everyday... Why is "The part of me that both dances with demons and finagles small miracles behind the scene" hidden on a regular basis (I understand that you are not in the same position you once were)? Why do you hide who truly are from those close to you? Why don;t you want those close to you to know who you are at the core? Will they not approve? Is that OK?

I don;t ask to try to expose you to all of the internet, just to maybe try to understand why I too am hidden in my daily life.. I won;t be offended if you don;t answer, can;t answer, or PM instead of putting it out there for all to see.

They say the first step is the hardest. They say starting is the most daunting aspect. Let's hope they are right. I took the first step towards solving my problems today. Tomorrow is the second step. I hope to be able to speak freely soon, and not have to vent by way of cryptic half-posts. Things may suck, but the long run can only get...

Lord, give me the strength to make it through this week. Give me the clarity to act with reason and logic, and not to react with blind emotion. Guide me here, where I need it most. Let this action I am about to undertake be swift and true. Just as I was at the bottom once before, so I am again. And as I rose...

Just a blurb. Lots of things crossing my mind, more questions than answers. I thinned out some of my groups so I could pay more attention to the ones I like to read or share with. But that's only a baby step in the grand scheme. There's so much teetering on the brink of change in my life, I think I'm spending too much time...

Oh shit, sorry. I've been pretty MIA from SG lately-->getting into the whole Zivity scene with a debut set that just came out and whatnot. But I'll send you a message about it smile I'd love to chat. Some serious shit.
skaldish:
That was a pretty amazing, insightful and powerfully emotional blurb.

First of all, as cliche as it may be to some, thank you for your service. There is nothing easy about putting oneself out there in harms way; regardless of how much someone may or may not 'love that shit' (as some people say). Its both admirable and totally fucking John Wayne!

Its definitely hard when you feel like the present is just a pale shadow off the past and that your best times are behind you (?) I feel that way sometimes. I'm a decade older than you and I'm not aging gracefully. Perhaps it would be more effective if my mind would actually age with my body but it stopped around 32. That feeling of temporal displacement is even more difficult when you have no one to talk to about it. I truly hope that whatever you are going through now, passes in completion, and opens the the door for both an exodus of old demons and a visitation of good will and peace.

By the way.. It's a pleasure to meet you Sir.

I need to talk to someone. Like really talk. Like sit down for six hours or so and just empty out. The problem is that I need to do so outside of the cognizance of an over-bearing wife who won't even let me have ten minutes to myself to take a shit, much less anything else.

I've worked so hard to overcome everything that's been...

So I'm becoming disenfranchised with zoos. Don't get me wrong, I completely approve of the conservation work they do, especially the networking between zoos to repopulate endangered species. But the concept of a zoo makes me feel even worse every time I visit one.

Let me start by saying that none of this is a direct stab at the most recent zoo I visited, being...

Thanks. smile I should actually have quoted Mark Twain:

Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry, and narrow-mindedness, and many of our people need it sorely on these accounts. Broad, wholesome, charitable views of men and things cannot be acquired by vegetating in one little corner of the earth all one's lifetime.

It is a goregous coastline!
