After a slow start, I finally got my ass in gear and headed out to the beach. For the second day in a row. The weather in the mid-coast has been warm verging on hot and sticky humid. The roads a...
Mercury In Retrograde in General
A former Od’r mentioned on Facebook that she wondering if Mercury was in retrograde. A quick check of the Old Farmer’s Almanac - it is not. Next retrograde starts September 17th. You could have...
Poor Emma. She is going to be so sore after fucking all the troops. Once you take out the females (some of whom may well be willing to fuck her back), the gay guys, transgendered and other du...
Beach Baby in General
Beach Baby Weird things that pop into my head. This song always reminds me of my almost-first-girlfriend. Who else remembers that weird awkwardness of being 13/14? How things you never though...
Singularity in General
“Why do I remember these things when they happened so long ago? Half the time I can’t remember what I did last week.” “You think you are remembering them, but they are remembering you. You turn...
The Lone Ranger and Tonto were camping in the wilderness. After they got their tent set up, both men fell sound asleep. Some hours later, Tonto wakes the Lone Ranger and says, “Kemo Sabe, look t...
In This Life in General
Jeebus Christmas, what the hell in the water downunder? Gawd. I’m pretty sure I’d barter my soul to meet Delta. But it is winter down there now, and it is beach weather here. And strawberry pic...
Meet Daenerys in General
I joke. I did not go out and get a little white kitty today. But isn’t she fierce!
I am up to the end of the third season of Game of Thrones. I would be lying if I didn’t say I am quite smitten with Daenerys “Stormborn” Targaryen She is tiny, she is hot, and has three dragons....
This just makes me sad. Such an undignified end for such a storied lady. An aircraft carrier pier side is a creepy place. It is built to handle almost six thousand sailors. An abandoned aircra...
This is a little weird. I am still up at almost 2am. Okay not 515am, but close enough. The ordeal of staring at the clock all day waiting for the right time to go pick up Mireya to go to the c...
Mötley Crüe - I sometimes forget what an incredibly tight band they are. Things I am currently and officially tired of hearing about: Taylor Swift, Lady Gag Gag, Nikki Minajasourus, Katy “look ...
That's What the Little Girls Do in General
I watched the first episode of “HUMANS” tonight. I was a bit creeped out because while I knew Synth/Anita/Mia was a robot/android I found her eerily gorgeous. I think the concept was already...
In My Mind in General
Karen she’s the silver sun, you best walk her way and watch it shine, watch her watch the morning come. I must confess, Maine is making up for last winter in spades. The weather has done the su...
Thunderstorms in General
All day thunderstorms. This is Maine. There might be something to this “climate change” bullshit after all, although I am not conceding that humans are more than a zit on the ass of the problem....
Fly My age-inappropriate crush dujour - Maddie & Tae. The first time I heard them harmonize on “keep on climbing…” I thought I was going to cry. What can be wrong with crushing on a coupl...
Svetlana Kapanina in General
I am in love! Too bad she is married! The airshow starts about 17 minutes into the video.
In my mind / I can see reminders of a past decade / So far behind / Like the shadows linger at the close of day. / And we could see / We were timeless dreamers of another day. / And we were free...
More Than a Feeling in General
I woke up this morning, coming out of a 3 Benadryl haze. My first thought was that I had a cat in my refrigerator. Which - and I won’t try to lay claims on your experiences but for me - was pre...
Dulcinea passed away today. She had stopped eating in her normally robust way last month. Then started hiding, which any cat owner who has had a cat pass away knows is a sign. She wasn’t in pai...
Vampire Diaries in General
I have much to write about, but apparently no will to write. But I watched the first two episodes of Vampire Diaries. Observations: Tons of gorgeous twenty-somethings playing teen girls. And to...
Fields of Gold in General
Every time I sit down to write my mind goes blank. I actually had to look to see how long it has been since I posted and am not all that surprised to see damn near two months. The week long ord...
I Never Said Goodbye in General
If you want love, you’ve got to give a little (If you want love) If you want faith, you just believe a little (If you want love) If you want peace, turn your cheek a little The problem with not ...
Once Bitten Twice Shy in General
My, my, my. Not Bobbie Brown from the video, but could be her daughter. Nikki Leigh. Spring forward happened without a hiccup. Initially. I set all my clock ahead before going to bed. Of co...
