On Monday, a doctor’s visit looms. Nothing serious. Nothing at all, actually.
I went off the timetable for my Hepatitus B vaccination, and suspect I’m now having to re-do it as I’m a couple months late for the third stage of the vaccine. Oh, joy. Fortunately, it’s just a needle and there’re no side-effects other than [...]

Ah, oral sex. Nothing like a mouthful, huh?
I’ve had a guy email me a couple of times about his partner’s ambivalence and distaste towards receiving oral sex. He loves to perform it, she hates to receive it. They’ve been married a while, and it seems she can’t get past her hang-ups, whatever they may be, [...]

I was reading Vancouver Magazine a moment ago and almost laughed out loud before I found myself nodding and pondering a statement by the always-quoteable local music magnate Bruce Allen:
Right now,there are no consequencesfor being an asshole.
Oh, I so hear ya, Bruce.
Bruce, though, was talking about civic politics. Me, I’m talking about dating.
Today’s the first [...]

With mere hours separating us from Spring, here’s a parting shot of Winter. I guess sometimes “hot and heavy” doesn’t really describe things all too aptly.
And I found myself catching the end of the Nature 25-year retrospective on PBS tonight, with a story about Shirley the elephant. Confined for her past 22 years in the [...]

Wow, so here’s a week of friendships with exes! On top of that, I had a conversation with a coworker yesterday in which she was saying the old Harry Met Sally line about how men & women can’t be friends, and that you certainly can’t be friends with an ex-lover. Then this posting happens. Ooh. [...]

Bloody hell, people. I’m sorry! I forgot to update you.
All right. My coworker’s husband pulled through. He had been tragically ill years ago and his adrenal gland has never really worked since. Thus, if he gets ill at all, bad things can happen — or so they’ve now discovered.
The doctors told him late Saturday night [...]

So, there’s the whole “age gracefully” or “fight that fucker” dilemma that comes rearing for us all, sooner or later.
Recently, I’ve been finding more grey hairs. That is to say, “Saturday”. I think I plucked a good dozen out that afternoon. My mother died of cancer at 57 and was only THEN beginning to go [...]

I can do fancier breakfasts than this — sauces, French Toast, pancakes, crepes, quiches — you name it, I can do it, but this is easy, rich, delicious, and perfect for a lazy rainy weekend morning like I’m having today. If I really want to lay down the knock-out punch, I could throw in hash [...]

So, in the morning it’ll officially be one month since I began my new job. I’ve just rushed in from torrential rains, which makes for fun scooter riding, to be sure, and I’m sitting here in my business clothes, a little spent but ultimately pleased with myself.
I’ve been thinking a lot these last couple weeks [...]

I have possibly averted a major disaster by reminding the new office that Daylight Savings Time changes this weekend instead of the old day of sometime in April. Bonus points to the new girl. Clocks spring forward.
Which brings to mind this:
“I once made lovefor an hour and fifteen minutes,but it was the nightthe clocks are [...]

BECAUSE I’m both still Sick in the Head AND a recovering Catholic, I feel terribly guilty for avoiding all y’all. (Nothing like still trying to learn the ins and outs of a new job while being sick as a dog. God.)
So, for you, and ONLY you, I’m willing to scour the web for mildly amusing [...]
