The End and the Beginning! <—- cliche | Take Another Look

https://velvetdewdrop.wordpress.com/2010/05/22/the-end-and-the-beginning-cliche

May 22, 2010} The End and the Beginning! I should start a new journal because I feel like I have nothing more to say. I have written carelessly. In this journal there are emotions splattered on the page. There are a few short descriptions that contain more than emotion. But it’s over. It’s all over! This part of my life. These feelings that controlled me as an earthquake controls the ground. I say goodbye to you…. Ophelia @ 9:10 pm [filed under Uncategorized. Leave a Reply Cancel reply. Wanting certainty...

Trying to solve this… | Take Another Look

https://velvetdewdrop.wordpress.com/2010/05/19/trying-to-solve-this

May 19, 2010} Trying to solve this…. September 11, 2008. Honesty is a big word. I’m so tired of the way people have been relating to me. I feel like they are trying to catch up to what I knew a long time ago, and if they ever do catch up, I will no longer be there for them to catch up to, because I will have been forced to bail. Or my boat would drown. I thought my friends were growing up. Did I hope for too long that my standing there would change them? I will stop berating myself for choosing the wrong...

Not Quite Right: May 2009

http://not-quite-right-bubba.blogspot.com/2009_05_01_archive.html

Thursday, May 07, 2009. The following was found while digging through some of Bob Church's belongings. It is a short writing Bob did on a napkin while at a restaurant. During one of his travels at least 10 years ago (possibly while staying at a hotel in St. Joe). Louise Church would like to share it with you all here. And no, this isn't Bob haunting you all through his blog so don't rush to the phone to call your local paranormal society headquarters :). Politicians in this world. They get us in wars.

Not Quite Right: June 2008

Saturday, June 28, 2008. Note: This piece is my response to a challenge issued by Scot Young at. Be Not Inhospitable To Strangers. The challenge was to interpret Charles Bukowski's poem. In either poem or prose. Be Not Inhospitable To Strangers. Starting Sunday, you'll be graced with all the responses to the challenge. as well as a whole lot of other good poetry. Used book store…. As I looked around the room, the shelves seemed to blur slightly in the low light, as if someone even now turned down a rheos...

Vulnerability | Lingo Slinger

https://lingoslinger.wordpress.com/2012/10/31/vulnerability

Just when you thought it couldn’t get any weirder…. October 31, 2012. But why can’t we admit when things are going wrong in our lives? What is so wrong with that? Here are some of my honest vulnerabilities:. I have struggled with my weight for the last several years and can never seem to lose more than ten pounds or so. The way I see myself in the mirror is not what others see. I have horrible self-esteem and often feel like a failure. It prevents me from putting myself out there a lot. We all have vulne...

Not Quite Right: March 2008

http://not-quite-right-bubba.blogspot.com/2008_03_01_archive.html

Sunday, March 30, 2008. Besides, four thousand bucks doesn’t go as far as it used to, I don’t think, and I really don’t need the money. In fact, I wish they’d take it all… then they’d throw me out of here and maybe I find my way to southern California or Mexico. At least down there, I could listen to the ocean go out and come back in. Fall far from the proverbial tree. Stubborn, combative and inclined to over-react, he was never far from trouble… just my sort of role model. We lost contact not too long a...

Not Quite Right: A Reconsideration of Position

http://not-quite-right-bubba.blogspot.com/2008/09/reconsideration-of-position.html

Wednesday, September 17, 2008. A Reconsideration of Position. After much consternation and gnashing of teeth, at the request of a reader who means something to me, I’ve decided to come out of turtle mode and stick my head back out into the world for the scrutiny of all who might happen upon my little island here in cyberspace. Trust me when I tell you chemotherapy inhibits my ability to bring the fire, but I shall try to honor your requests and offer up. Trivialities - no, I think it would be a bad thing...

Not Quite Right: July 2008

http://not-quite-right-bubba.blogspot.com/2008_07_01_archive.html

Thursday, July 31, 2008. Well, I guess it's about time I checked in for an update. My little vacation here at the Chateau de la Chemo is over-rated, at best. It's my own fault, though, I suppose I should have read the brochures a little closer before trading my time-share in Boca for it. heh heh heh. Hope all of you are conducting yourselves in a manner that speaks well of your parents. (I have no idea why I just said that. blame it on the cocktail.). Sunday, July 27, 2008. I must tell you, at this point...
