Dirty Little Secret

I have something to admit. I have been blogging somewhere else. I actually feel a little ashamed because I've ignored this blog so much. But believe me, the other forum is in no way like this. I do not share half the intimate details that I do with the fine readers of this blog. They're usually really short posts, too. The people that read my other blog are people that I know KNOW...and a lot of them are friends I met through JC and Mi-Mi, so I can't spill all the stuff that I do here, but it's kind of a good forum to have those people that really know you on a personal level to read...but, now, as I write that, I realize that even though I've never met half the readers here face to face, you guys probably know me pretty personally...

Ok, so you can go here if you want to read up on my other blog...it's not any more exciting than here though...it's at MySpace, which I have found to be a really great place to keep up with friends. Much easier than emailing and even calling, and I'm addicted! http://www.myspace.com/20887633

Tonight I'm going to a Halloween/Birthday party. It's Mr. Incredible's B-day. The party has the theme of ROCKSTAR, so I'm going as Axle Rose, and Velma, JC's roommate is going as Slash. It's the funniest thing I've ever seen. I can't wait to post pictures. I also have to come up with a costume for Saturday night...so, the plan right now, because I'm going as a boy tonight, I bought false eyelashes that I really want to wear, and I just want to feel sexy after being sick for so long, is to go as a naughty teacher/librarian...everyone does the naughty school girl thing, and everyone tells me I have the naughty librarian look when I wear my glasses...so, it kind of sounded like a good idea...we'll see if it works. JC is, of course, going to be Obi-Wan Kenobi tomorrow night. His costume for tonight is really good, too, but it's a secret...I can't wait to get a picture of him making out with Axle Rose...how funny!

Oh, I'm still not feeling up to myself, but thank you to everyone who sent well wishes. My doctor says the tonsils should definitely come out. Sounds like a hoot!

Am I Going To Die? I just got stung for the first time ever by a wasp . . . So far so good . . . I can still breathe, I haven't swelled up like a balloon, yet . . . But it hurts and itches like crazy!!! It's almost the end of the semester and I am completely swamped! Two projects, two papers, and three finals, all in the next 3 weeks . . . Somehow I'll handle it. I've actually all of sudden "woken up" where school is concerned. I've been in such a daze for like the last 7 or 8 months. The AOC has changed my life as I knew it . . . in good and bad ways!!! Bad because he takes up too much of my thoughts . . . and I need all the brain capacity that I can get!!! Somehow, after years of barely even talking to anyone at work, and only a couple of years of actually being a little more friendly with my co-workers, I seem to have been sucked up in "office politics" and I HATE it! I used to really like going to work . . . now I just want to quit!! It still...

DIY Faux Brick Wall with German Schmear

Written February 14, 2021, when I tried to start a  WordPress blog , but failed because I'm old and it's too complicated. My estranged (?), separated (?), I don't know what, husband, and I actually worked on this together.  I watched 1,000 YouTube videos and read another 1,000 posts on how to do this.  In the end, I took a little from here and a little from there. The faux brick paneling was bought from Home Depot.   We cut the seams with a Ryobi jigsaw , used liquid nails and a Ryobi nail gun to attach the panels, and used joint compound mixed with a bit of water for the schmear.  It's a perfectly, imperfect technique.  I practiced a little, but decided to just jump in and let the wall take on a life of it's own.  I will warn that the joint compound dries much whiter than you think it will.  Use sparingly if you want to see more brick. Once the wall was finished, I painted the other walls Sherwin Williams Perfect Greige .  Shelves and floor...
Time to Share? I have a huge crush. I have a huge crush on a man I've never met in person. I have a huge crush on a man who does things that are very cool. Yesterday in the mail I got the book that he sent me...the book that he wrote...a book about all of his travels and adventures. The more I read this book, the less confident I start to feel about this being a possible "match". I have no idea what I can offer this older, more sophisticated, more worldly man. The biggest adventures in my life are grappling with 18-year old freshmen for a parking space at school, finishing a set of push-ups and pull-ups at the gym, or wrestling my daughter to the ground for a bath. Maybe I can teach him all about Sponge-Bob Square Pants? This is again one of those times where things seem too good to be true. The emails we send back and forth would suggest that there is a great interest and curiosity on both sides, and that something really good could possibly come from this!!! His ...
