Words of Wisdom
I loved these words of wisdom when I read them. I think you will too… “It’s not your job that makes a difference in the world, it is the parts of YOU that you take to work everyday that makes the difference.”

Deviant Sexual Arousal
“Deviant sexual arousal…” As if on cue, Emily walked in just as I was saying those words to Megan and without thinking, as an explanation, I looked up and told her, “I was just telling Megan about my day.” Without missing a beat, Emily replied, “It sounds like you had a lot better day than …
Checking In
I don’t have a lot to say tonight but thought I would post a hi and how are you all doing? Life has been full in this corner of the blogosphere. On October 11th, I am dancing with my tap dancing troupe at the Elsinore Theater so we are rehearsing 3-4 times a week. This …
Healing Waters

I thought this was funny, I saw it done on another blog so my roommate and I each tried it out. Here are my answers. Put your music player on shuffle. Press forward for each question. Use the song title as the answer to the question. Post on your blog. Comment back if you post …
