A week or so ago, Lil Bit posted 10 questions for her readers. I was lazy and got busy with life and time slipped by. I had told her that I would answer the questions though so here I am. I already made sure she had them privately since I was unsure of putting a few of these answers in the public domain. I figure why not, I have posted everything else out here. So why not? Remember these are questions that she asked of her readers, and my responses to her.

1. Why do you have a blog & what does blogging mean to you? (Is it diff from when you started? If so, how? Consider stopping anytime soon?)

I have a blog because when I started blogging I was looking for an outlet to vent my frustrations and get everything out in the open without talking to a shrink or a preacher. Now it gives me a way to talk to friends and let them know what is going on in my head and my life. I have thought about stopping, but I still need an outlet sometimes so I keep going. I have stopped blogging as much as I used to though.

2. Why do you read my blog? (If you've been a long-time reader, do you think mine has changed? - for better, worse, or neutral?)

I started reading it, because there was this hot chick that kept posting pictures of herself and then I started actually reading it and got hooked. I still read it, because while the format has changed some, it is still the same hot chick that posted pictures of herself.

3. Why do you think some people regularly read a blog but never leave a comment? Have you discovered a way to bring the lurkers outta hiding or do you care if they comment?

People read blogs but don’t want to comment. Sometimes I feel like I don’t know enough about a situation to leave a comment on it. No and No. :)

4. What percentage of your readers is female and what percentage is male (of those you're aware)?

Not positive, but I think the majority of my readers are female. There are 3 guys that I know of that read my blog.

5. Are there any kinds of posts you wish you saw here but rarely (or never) do?

Full on Nekkid? :)

6. Are you working in the profession you thought you would & are you happy with your job?

No. Yes I am!

7. Are you *completely* happy/content with your life overall right now? If not, why? What do you want to change?

Not completely. TG isn’t here with me yet, but she will be soon! If I could rig the lottery so that I would win and be rich, then Hell yeah! :)

8. What's your favorite color(s) and number(s)?

I like pink, and as Bill and Ted put it, “69 Dude!!”

9. Would you tell me something about yourself that I don't already know?

You already know everything about me!

10. Do you have a secret blog (or can ya tell me? lol)? And if I told you the addy of my erotic blog, how would it affect/change your opinion of me?

This IS my secret blog!! No it wouldn’t change my opinion of you. I would be busy reading for a while though!! :)

Questions

Everybody has questions that they think of after the fact. I want to know what some people wished they had thought to ask before they got married (or attached). TG asked this on her blog a month or so ago, and I figured I would do the same. I'm not talking about what religion, how many kids you have to have type of things. I am interested in finding out the little things that you would have liked to have known before hand. Like the fact that I prefer Irish Spring soap, while TG prefers Dove.

Tell me what kind of questions for little things you would have liked to asked.


Make a nice day!

Karma, why risk it?

I figured out why I haven't been sleeping well the past couple days. I keep tossing and turning and not really sleeping. Karma has been hanging over my head like a lead balloon. One of the things I detest about people is rudeness, and my rudeness towards my ex's new husband. So this morning after a rather energetic outing of Ultimate Frisbee I swung by their house and knocked on the door. When he answered the door I apologized for my rudeness. We talked for about 10 minutes. He is heading back to Iraq on Thursday. I hope he has enough life insurance coverage and put some of it in my ex's name.

So now I feel better about myself since I am not the type of person who likes to be rude. I know that he and I will never be drinking buddies or friends, but at least I know that I have made amends and I hope Karma forgives me.


Tell your Pookie that you love them and Make a nice day!!

Anger

I just got home. I had to go in to work for a few hours and Mud's mama actually kept her while I went in. I figured I would be there maybe an hour. Turned out I was at work for over 2 hours. When I finally got out of there and went to pick Mud up, I went to the door and knocked. The ex answered it and had the gall to ask me if I wanted to meet her new husband. I politely told her no and she said "Are you sure?" I told her that I was positive I didn't want to meet him. She calls Holly and while I was waiting he came to the door and stuck his hand out to shake and introduce himself. I turned my back on him and started to walk away. I just couldn't go without saying something. I turned back around and told him "I used to have a lot of respect for PJ's. Then you came along." He had a very strange look on his face, but then Mud came through the door and I walked away. Now I am still angry at him. It seems so very stupid of me. I have forgiven the ex for what she did, but I can't seem to forgive him. I must need to go to church more.

I was typing this and got sidetracked while putting Mud to bed. I had to remake her bed and the phone rang. It was the ex. Mud answered the phone and I told her to tell her I would call her back. I didn't. She just called again, it is 10:45 pm. She was mad that I was "Rude" to her husband. I told her that I may have forgiven her, but I had not forgiven him. Maybe in the future I will, but I wasn't there now. Now I am mad again. My hands are shaking. I think I need to talk to a shrink or something.

Why do I even care anymore?

Make a nice day. Somebody needs to.

Birthday

Mud turned 11 yesterday. I got her a cake. And a cell phone. Somebody please shoot me!!!

Make a nice day.

Done Inked

Remember this post from some time ago? Well I just got back from the tattoo parlor. The cover up looks really good. The tattoo artist did a freehand drawing on my chest and over the old tattoo. It is a stone style dragon. He spent about 30 minutes actually drawing the dragon on me. When he finished it I went and looked in the mirror and was surprised at how well he actually did. There are a few spots that may need to be touched up after it heals, but probably not. It is shades of gray, but if I want to have it colored later on that is still possible.

I do know that I am never getting a tattoo on my ribs or over any bones! He barely touched my collar bone and it hurt like a s@n$3*($#(@!!!! A little later he got close to my nipple and it felt like he was sawing it off. Ouch. I didn't cry though! :) I had forgotten how much tattoos can hurt. I remember now.

So here is the finished ink. Too much black and gray? Let me know.




Tell your Pookie you Love them and Make a nice day!!

Catch up

I had a great weekend! I left from work a few minutes early and drove straight to the airport on Thursday. I got to Atlanta around 9:15 PM. I got to sleep in late Friday because Gorgeous still had to work. We had a very good evening on Friday and on Saturday morning we went to the Ren Faire. It was a lot of fun going with her to the Ren Faire. She can go anywhere and be a lot of fun to be with. We wandered around and looked at everything. We had fish and chips for lunch. I couldn't find any Apple Dumplings though which sucked. Oh well I guess I really didn't need it anyway. I am getting kind of on the husky side...

We watched a couple of shows and some jousting. The sword swallower was a little unsettling when he swallowed a 4 foot long balloon. It popped. He let out a really big burp, which is better than the other option... The Ded Bob Sho was entertaining. If you get a chance to go to his show somewhere I highly recommend it. Make sure you get to be one of the water balloon throwers.

Saturday night was a lot of fun also. She has some really great friends and family. They are the type that everyone should have, but few actually do.

Sunday we went up to Helen and enjoyed the swiss/german/austrian alps city they have. It is a tourist trap but it was fun to go wander around in for an afternoon.

I had to come home yesterday which sucked. My plane got delayed and we didn't take off until 11 PM. I got home at 2 AM, my alarm went off at 0645 and I hit snooze. Then hit it again. And again. I finally crawled out of bed at 0715. I had to rush but I made it to work. A little late, but no one mentioned it. I am definitely going to bed early tonight!

OK, now that everyone is all caught up I guess I need to give you a picture or two to stare at.
