Updates | PolyMorpheus
https://forbiddentower.wordpress.com/2015/08/17/updates
Asymp; 2 Comments. Yesterday brought up some negative feelings. I think it was spurred by a couple of things. Mostly it was a reminder that I haven’t addressed the years of gas lighting I suffered. I don’t even know where to begin working through it. It’s fraught with a lot of painful issues. Not just for me, but for my husband too. For once the internet has failed me. I couldn’t find anything on dealing with the effects of gas lighting. Larr; Previous post. Next post →. Thoughts on “Updates”.

Dating hiatus | PolyMorpheus
https://forbiddentower.wordpress.com/2015/08/11/dating-hiatus
Asymp; Leave a comment. I promised myself that I wouldn’t blog about a bunch of bad dates. However, this was too good to not share. This guy and I seemed to have a lot in common. We texted a few times, and he seemed ok. I’ll admit that I wasn’t super excited, more just eh this may be ok. We move on to movies. He asks about. So far, this guy is doing well, right? He knows that I’m a professor of English but good gosh, I’m so glad that he explained how the language worked to me. What with all those yea...

Online Entitlement | PolyMorpheus
https://forbiddentower.wordpress.com/2015/07/27/online-entitlement
Asymp; Leave a comment. I try really hard to not stereotype or generalize. I constantly try to catch my own biases and prejudices. I really do. Second, I’m an actual human being. I know the internet makes that complicated for some people. However, we need to stop accepting the anonymity of the internet as an excuse for people being assholes. I wanted to share a sampling of a week’s worth of online interactions I’ve had on OkCupid. The most benign interactions I’ve had this week are the socially stupid me...

Asymp; 2 Comments. So I’ve found a gym that has a pool and finding an indoor pool in Southern California is tough. I’m going to check it out tomorrow. I’m nervous about it. Everyone I’ve ever known who joined a gym gets sucked into such toxic body shaming spirals. It’s a culture I cannot stand to around. I’m hoping I can avoid that. Asymp; Leave a comment. I’ve had so much going on. Having another married poly friend is nice. We’ve both found difficulties as married women in the local poly scene. I find ...

Learning to Play: Cards | The Abysmal Witch
https://abysmalwitch.wordpress.com/2015/03/24/learning-to-play-cards
What is fed, grows. Learning to Play: Cards. March 24, 2015. I’ve been very focused lately on what I “should” be doing, what “needs” to be done. To accomplish this, to do what’s appropriate with that. Not just with work things, but in my play as well. In fact, I realized tonight that I haven’t been playing. I’ve been approaching all of my ‘fun’ things with a work ‘must get done’ attitude. I’ve forgotten how to play. What is fed, grows. Things can change in an instant…but mostly they stay the same. And th...

This self improvement work is like camping… – Borealis Meditation
http://katborealis.com/2015/07/this-self-improvement-work-is-like-camping
This self improvement work is like camping…. July 30, 2015. Self Improvement. This is something I have always done in my own way. Now that I am working through a defined process though, I am going about it from a different angle*. This work is intense. I have really been trying to come to grips with how much fear has ruled my life, and in that my actions. Fear is the reason I have a pen name. But why? What am I really afraid of? That is a hard question. Out you go. Make me feel like shit about myself?

Polymusings: Post Date Night | PolyMorpheus
https://forbiddentower.wordpress.com/2015/07/13/polymusings-post-date-night
Polymusings: Post Date Night. Asymp; 1 Comment. I’m still planning on writing more about dating, but I have something else on my mind. I’ve gone out with one guy a few times now. He’s poly and kinky – and smart and fun. He has a primary partner and seems to have a good handle on poly. For me. He is excited. For me to start my new adventures. I am happy and excited to share these new experiences and new people with him. Larr; Previous post. Next post →. Thought on “Polymusings: Post Date Night”.

Awkward Poly Moment…. | PolyMorpheus
https://forbiddentower.wordpress.com/2015/07/22/awkward-poly-moment
Awkward Poly Moment…. Asymp; Leave a comment. I worked with him last semester. Unless you have a paid account (which I don’t). This site lets other people see who has viewed their profile. He looked at mine this morning. I wonder if he recognized me… It feels really awkward. Like I learned something private about him that he didn’t willingly share. Luckily, it’ll be ages before I work with him again (if I ever do). For once being an adjunct pays off. Larr; Previous post. Next post →.
