I sympathise with the car problems. A few weeks ago, the head gasket went in the Land Rover, only a week after I blew two ignition coils in the other car. All in the month I had to tax them both too!
Hope you find a nice place to head to.

I just had my Diesel Beetle serviced, the routine was OK.
Rear Brakes and Sway-bar bushings, Ouch! 133,000 miles so far.
Always handy to break down where your friends live.
I got in the habit of parking the semi at the Danbury Mall
and getting supper at the Ruby Tuesday's there. I use to
eat at the Diner out to Exit 10, until they got rid or truck
parking. When I was a kid back in the '50's we'd go to
the Danbury Fair.
I'm enjoying getting out of a rut and seeing some Live music.
It's a shame that the Hours that I was working made doing
such a thing impossible.

oops....
This was the second time I've dropped a comment meant for someone else into my own blog. Damn, I'm dense sometimes! Thank goodness for cut and paste...

Thanks babe!

love the stick people clip!
pleased ur fellin better and that storm sounds fab... and i'm sure had some beautiful skies to go with it... over here the weather has got a bit more boring but i'm hoping for a nice weekend of motobikes and food... with some skies thrown in for good measure... good luck with your steel steed!

I'm feeling better lately on a consistent basis. People are starting to notice. When I was with my daughters, I was extremely chatty, both Saturday and Sunday. They know that when I'm that way, I'm feeling pretty good.

While I'm still waiting for good things to unfold, I've felt more hopeful than I have for quite a while. On the negative side. I thought I would be coming into some steady money as early as the beginning of August. I just learned today that it won't be coming through until mid September. It's a disappointment, but I've been through so much lately., I'm trying my best to take one more blow in stride. I hope I have enough resiliency in me to overcome this latest setback.

Glad you're feeling better.

I think a lot of people have a hard time dealing, with death, it's a weird feeling in the pit of your stomach and you can't get rid of it. It goes away but then, well for me I feel guilty for it....
I think that is one of the best pics .

I just want to be me again,

Don't worry I started to do this on mine.
The air-breather VW were a class of their own.
It is a good thing that they were easy to take care of.
Funny thing is that even with parts left over they still
ran pretty good..
Haveing been a member of the Bruised Knuckle School
of Shade Tree Mechanics , there is something to be
said about takeing it to the shop.
You're fairly close to the Rhinebeck Airdrome, any idea
of what their scheadual is this summer?

Old VW engine ya could rest on yer chest to
pull it out or put it back. A Buick! Pancake city.
Appreciated.

I'm so sorry to hear about your financial setback. I hope it's very temporary and mild. You're a great guy who doesn't deserve adversity.

Now you've got me curious. I'm wondering what fetishes you're into. I'm pretty much of an open book about mine if you read my comments with certain people here. One of the trhings I love about SG is that I don't feel inhibited or embarassed about revealing or discussing my fetishes. I'm not ashamed of them one iota.

I'm sure you've figured out by now what the basis for my relationship with Lyrical was, at least early on. It developed into alot more eventually. I wrote the story in three parts about a week ago and sent it to Gyllien to read. She told me she LOVED it. If you want, I'll try to forward it to you. I know I have to cut and paste, but I'm so incompetent about such things that I might mess it up. If you want, I'll try to send it.

I enjoyed writing it. The words flowed off of my fingers. The things I wrote about grought me back to a better time and place. It's graphic, sexual, sensual and true. It's only for ther eyes of a select number of people whom I can trust to keep it confidential.

There are two other firends who I'd like to send it to. They're very much into the lifestyle. If I send it to you successfully, I'll send it to them too. Let me know what you want me to do.

You missed ME getting on cam dancing naked!!!!!
I keed I keed I did no such thing! hahahha

I am sorry about the truck... meh for vehicles breaking down. I haven't really driven mine since November. When I got in it last week.. I couldn't find the registration. I mean, I haven't DRIVEN it but the registration is suddenly GONE?? wtf? hahahahhaha I have to go get my new license as mine expired at the beginning of the month and I HEARD that if a woman wears too much makeup they make you leave and take it off. WTF are they going to say about my HAIR??? Someone said they were gonna make me dye it.. I am so gonna throw a fit if thats the case!
wow.. I am rambling. haha I am feeling so weird lately. really really happy. I dont understand this but I LOVE it!

I sent you the first chapter of the story. I omitted the title. It's "The Story Of s, Chapter One.

There's an obvious reason why it's a small "s".

I can't find the other two chapters. If you like what I've sent you, I'll as k Gyllien if she could forward the other two chapters to you. Let me know.

Any loss, even in anticipated income is tough to deal with, especially these days. I hope the situation won't cause you any stress or anxiety.

Hope you enjoy chapter one.

much needed heat damn it it was too cold!

You will find the book quite different - in character emphasis, in meaning, even in depiction of specific events. It's probably best to treat them as two different entities. The book is, nonetheless, excellent and well worth reading.

Minghella, when making a film adaptation, would read the book a few times. Then put it away and not refer to it again. His creativity could then take over, as it did in Truly, Madly, Deeply, The Talented Mr Ripley and Cold Mountain as well. He was a great director, and it is a tragedy that he died so young. Everyone who worked with him said what a kind and fundamentally decent man he was, and I think that shines through in the sensitivity of his work.
