Inner Voices
My head said, “There has to be a reason.” My heart said, “I deserve this.” My neck said, “Quench your thirst.”
My head asked, “Was it something I did?” My heart asked, “Is this anger or sorrow?” My neck asked, “Are you hungry?”
My head needed a reason. My heart needed time. My neck needed me to look skyward

Writing
I have decided that I am going to try to write an entry on cowbird for each of the lessons I keep on my ongoing list. I see this as my best opportunity to put this material out there for feedback. This also now gives me 35 small projects to take a sentence and wrap a story around it, add an image, perhaps even add a soundtrack.
Go big, or go home.
Perhaps I can see if any of my friends would...

Awakened Wordliness
Yesterday, a friend had posted some words, a couple paragraphs, that very intimately shook my sense of reality, and left me nearly speechless… save for the reply of “holy shit!” Hours later, she rightfully questioned whether the tone used was complementary, as textually, the expletive was without clarity. I did all I could to try to write nearly as elegantly in my response, and...

Also, what New Year’s resolution would you think would suit me?
It's Tuesday
Here are my questions for anyone to answer:
What are your plans for New Year’s?
Number of rooms in your house + Adjective describing your ceiling + Something you’d see looking out of the kitchen window of your dream home = Title of Autobiography?
A word you would not like being used to describe you?
What did you last do anonymously?
What flavor of jelly do you like with PB&J?

kinda sad really
Yesterday seemed devoid of any real Christmas meaning. Just like any other day, it was pretty much me with the lingering worry that my daughter would be overwhelmed or hurt in being her playful self. Nothing really inspred me until I got a break and got online here to see how everyone else was doing. It was little more than an exercise in retail.
A few times I tried to have little moments...

I get really worried about it, seriously. I mean, it’s not so much that I feel like I might be taking something for granted but that someone might feel like I am taking them for granted. I really am a simple person. I need very little and I appreciate everything so so much. So much that it’s…

"Better"
Years ago, http://www.wefeelfine.org was started. It looks across the internet (mostly english) and searches through blogs with “I feel” or “I am feeling.” It then harvests these statements and catalogs the emotion, best guess of geographic location, weather, gender (if provided), and possibly a picture if there was one.
Three years later, the creators made a book of...

Quite the notable year I have had. I hate me. You can get in line.

We’ve parted ways in just about every way possible, and I am groveling for forgiveness.

Bullshit
I don’t care how long you’ve felt this way or long you think you’ve been “obvious” about it, the fact is you never said a damn word to me about it, and I am not a mind reader. For you to wait years for me to ask if it’s over and then (AND THEN) act like I’m stupid for not knowing how you feel is a shit move. Maybe you treat others better. I’ll...
