Ain't it weird how you can be going about your day then something cracks and hits you like a wave you didn't expect then flushes your body with "feelings".
I was changing my outgoing message today on my message center and while futzing around with my new outgoing greeting I played back the old alternate greeting. While I was listening to the playback, in the distance, I could hear my ex's little boy laughing over my voice...just as if I was in that moment and recording it right then.
Without a moments hesitation, I'm flooded with memories of that day, the moment, circumstances, and the recollection of the message my ex left that day about how he enjoyed hearing the sound of his son's voice on my machine. It's been awhile since the break-up and a lot has transgressed since but that day felt so close to me. I wanted it back, I grabbed at it and it disintegrated...pretty much sums up the relationship.
UPDATE: 7:00pm...thoughts whirling about in sentimental fashion, here is a toddy to use as whimsy thought fodder...
When did you last passionately kiss someone one for hours?
Tattooes? Symbolism and/or story behind them?
Have you ever named a pet after a loved one?
Who was the last person you told a truth or your truth to?
Does your bed head north, south, east or west?
If someone offered to tell the "truth" about someone you love, would you listen?
If there were an option to take a pill that would harness your libido but the effect would be extended creativity;would you take it?

Just a day or so ago (child rearing can hinder this sorta thang) funny though prior to this man I had never maintained a long-term relationship where I even had the desire to do so after a year ++ of cohabitation.
Tattooes? Symbolism and/or story behind them?
Two to datethe first one on the right side of the top of my nether regions was done at Sunset Tattoo after I left my first husband in serious retaliation of his favorite commentary about his disdain for tats I designed it (half moon face/half sun face in Aztec qualities)its not so unique 11 years later2nd one on my spine two years ago when I was diagnosed with autoimmune, anorexia, and a plethora of other shite that I was told could kill me designed it again a nekkid me hugging a skeleton with the banner reading Fearless whipped around my abklemore to come
Have you ever named a pet after a loved one?
Define loved one I have named pets after favorite loved artistsone cat still carrying the name Maxfield Parrish (his sister named Britney Spears Spears and no I did not stutter by the daughter)
Who was the last person you told a truth or your truth to?
I only ever tell the truth anymoreI am too old to do any lessit is some tough stuffbut we get through it.
Does your bed head north, south, east or west?
It heads towards the moon.
If someone offered to tell the "truth" about someone you love, would you listen?
I do have - would and will.
If there were an option to take a pill that would harness your libido but the effect would be extended creativity;would you take it?
Nope. My creativity abounds some days above and beyond my already heartily active libido.
Lucky me.
good questions sistah!
Yesterday night, amidst the electro-clash of murder and passion of a low volume television in my bed with my life partner in crimeslowly falling into that world that occurs when asleep.
Tattoos? Symbolism and/or story behind them?
First tattoo-I was 16 and dying to somehow be noticed in a world filled with the blindfolded masses orbiting the gravity of my moon bone. It is a flaming claw, grabbing an eyeball, while streaking across an arm that could only be mine.
Second-A black very small stencil of the Zig-Zag man, I hate it and the one abovebut they do mark a time in my life when I was searching for the epiphany of dichotomy. I needed something to brand that into the only thing I owned.
Third- A tribal-esque piece on my right upper arm..it is the moon, and the faces that laughed at me..it is beauty for the sure symmetry
Fourth-A Celtic design, forever connecting the guilt of my youth to the man who would carry that for many years.
Fifth- A design (Celtic-three line knot) that would fulfill its destiny when I met my wife and step daughter-I drew it hoping she would see it and follow the beacons of the lighthouses behind my eyes.
Sixth- Celtic band around my wrist.to remind myself why I chose to heed the words of woody Guthrie and live my life simple, but assured..it is slowly bleeding into itself.as we all are
Seventh, Eighth- Two Tibetan prayers which are identical---one on the backsides of each arm above the elbow.Left Blue, to match that eye, right green to match that eye (mine are different colors) the prayer is a prayer that simply says rebirth, evolve over and over
Have you ever named a pet after a loved one?
Yesbut based on my definition of loved one.and I will never do it again
Who was the last person you told a truth or your truth to?
If I lied that would destroy my credibility from withinthat will never happennot on my watch.Let your yes be yesand your no be no
Does your bed head north, south, east or west?
All of the above..it is the one place on earth where I spend my quality time
If someone offered to tell the "truth" about someone you love, would you listen?
Why deny what you already know
If there were an option to take a pill that would harness your libido but the effect would be extended creativity; would you take it?
They go hand in handthe passion breeds the creativity.and the creativity breeds the passion.pills are for schoolchildren who like Fred Flintstone
