Five – Bloganuary

Welcome to Bloganuary. It’s this thing that WordPress is doing to encourage bloggers to post something every day by providing a regular prompt. I think that “Bloguary” would not only sound better but makes more sense. Maybe they’re saving that for next month. But if they go with Blogebruary I’m dropping out. Anyway, today’s prompt … Continue reading Five – Bloganuary

Question of the Week #303

If we lived for centuries and even very old people were healthy and youthful, would you rather have a partner who was old enough to be world-wise and experienced, or someone younger and more naïve who was seeing most things for the first time? Why? I think I'd still want to be with someone who … Continue reading Question of the Week #303

Question of the Week #296

Do you feel you have enough time? If not, what might give you that feeling? As you age, are you becoming less or more concerned about "wasting" time?

Waiting

I'm no doctor. Therefore, I clearly have no clue what goes into a physician's day to day in the life of a family clinic. I don't know what issues come up and I don't know what stresses a doctor has to deal with on a regular basis. Because of this, take what I'm about to … Continue reading Waiting

Rewatching Buffy – Episode 35

Welcome to Rewatching Buffy, the part of the blog where I rewatch Buffy the Vampire Slayer. Each Tuesday evening, you’re invited to join me as I attempt to rediscover what made me love this show 20 years ago. So... Here's the thing... I'm just doing one episode at a time. Unless there's a week that … Continue reading Rewatching Buffy – Episode 35

Question of the Week #104

Would you be willing to give up sex for five years if you could have wonderfully sensual and erotic dreams any night you wished? Well, it's been almost 37 years. What's another five? Probably helps that I don't yet know what I'm missing... That was easy. And oddly personal. What would you pick? The dream … Continue reading Question of the Week #104

NC Revisited

Eight years ago, I moved to Wake Forest, North Carolina. At the time, I truly believed this represented a permanent change in my life. I thought that I had said good bye to the Commonwealth of Virginia for good, except for holidays and family events. Turns out I was wrong. Eight years ago, I moved … Continue reading NC Revisited
