Limbo in The Wanderer
Here I am lingering in limbo. Sometimes I feel like I have so much to say and so much to do in this world, and other times I feel like I have absolutely nothing. I'm tired of my mind. This sounds...
Thoughts and nothing. in The Wanderer

"If you expect nothing from anybody, you’re never disappointed" in The Wanderer
-SP WELL. I broke the news to D's friend at work and I am pretty sure the word is finally out. It is definitely tricky to make sure it's known that I want an NSA without sounding like a slut or ...

Waiting for my life to begin in The Wanderer
The one thing about constantly changing your life is the time period between ending an old life and the beginning of a new life. It takes a lot out of your Self to start fresh constantly, but lik...
Really? in The Wanderer
I came "home" from a nice two days away from this place and the Douche is here. (The sperm donor) only to announce he is moving in whether I like it or not. That turned into a screaming match aga...

Moving forward without looking back in The Wanderer
The difficult part is all the bullshit I've had to deal with in California for many years. The scariest was the drugs. Yes I've had my own stint with certain drugs in the past but I'm far past th...
The roadtrip 2014 in The Wanderer
