He stood on the other side of the bed, helping Isabelle to put the clean sheets on perfectly. In her mind, she glanced over the Dom men in her life, and how each one had specifics that he would tell her about, for each chore, This one, Marcus, he has some OCD traits, and has certain folds on the sheet corners - so very smooth . His clothes were folded specifically the way he wanted, and the house was kept spotless. He had a certain mop, a certain cleaner, a certain rag....It was endless.
Izzy knew that these annoying picky tendencies would give way to her humour and laughter as well, as she served him. In time, it would becomes comic relief, per usual. This one though....he had a heart and softness to him. It made his dichotomy of danger, all the more surprising. He listened to her, I mean actually listened. Shaking her head a little while in thought, Isabelle smirked and let out a chuckle.
His skin though....Oh how she adores his skin which was so very soft and smooth. He was eighteen years her junior, but she did not care. They were having fun with no commitments, no drama, no disappointment. They were just flowing, seeing if they fit.
His full dark lips were so damned pretty, Izzy thought , while she stood by his side in a store. The edges were chiseled and yet so very tender soft. She loved his kisses for that reason. When she finally met him, his aggressiveness was matched with gentleness. Isabelle knew in that moment that he was a great find. It's like going shopping and trying on clothes, that aren't exactly in the company's best interest, but it could surprise., It was a calculated gamble.
Marcus was easing her grief daily. His philosophy of life, was so advanced for his age. Isabelle knew he was good for her. He had high morals and values, and equally devious ones just for her. Isabelle could feel the calm in her, as he healed the past wounds through leading her in doing so herself.

You may remember my story about my mother's friend. the Vietnam Vet....Whom I take care of?
Well, he left this earth last night and won't return. It was almost midnight when he let go.
A sudden cardiac arrest took him....
I'm gonna miss Don "Vader". That was what I called him because of how his CPAP sounded at night. I'll miss him watching Gunsmoke for the 160th time. I'll miss him making jokes and being pleasant. I'll miss him appreciating my food and his care.
I'll miss the old man

I can be the most devious bitch I know when warranted. How do you know some pay back is needed? When the thing that is done to you is blatantly disrespectful, you are absolved of regard for them. However, be smart about i9t, whatever you do 
For example:
Exhibit A - Start new school and one of the girl's decides to make me feel embarrassed by putting a bottle of lemon juice on my desk with a note that says "Lemon Juice Takes Away The Fish Smell"
a. So I taped sardines into the vents of her locker before we left for holiday break. They rotted for 2 weeks. You couldn't even walk down the hallway. She got the lemon juice bottle back on her desk.
Exhibit B: A girlfriend of mine in high school made out with my crush at my 16th birthday party.
b When we were 20, I went out with a guy she had been dating to pay her back. He fell in love with me and she was crushed. (Sorry, not Sorry)
Exhibit C: My ex boyfriend was a cheater. He had left me at home over Christmas and was fucking some woman instead. The next year at Thanksgiving he started talking about going to his 's again (that's where he said last time) So I knew. Sure enough when he went to work his travel bag was on bed. I opened it and there was his viagra. Like, who takes viagra to their 's house for Thanksgiving?
c. So I took the bottle and he didn't have any for his whole trip  I moved out while he was trying to face ED
You mess with the bull, you get the horns, know what I'm saying?
Otherwise, I'll be the most loyal, best support system, and love unconditionally, until you start moving funny and care only about yourself. Then....watch the fuck out because you'll be the grass and I'll be the lawn mower

Chasing Elusive Happiness A F-cking Addiction

FUCK
"The only fucking word, you can use in any fucking situation, and it makes fucking sense."
Happiness is such an elusive fucking emotion. It is non committal , unless you choose to look at the glass wih ever positive eyes. Even when you're fucking happy, in a moment's notice, it will elude you once again. Of course, the 7 deadly sins are included in that demise equation, for fuck sake's
It works like this:
The minute you think life is going fucking grand, and you are a fucking BOSS - That is when life will kick you in the fucking teeth.
The second you become overwhelmed with happiness and love, your partner will do something atrociously fucking hurtful.
At the same moment you decide to give your all to this fucking amazing person,
The moment of reality, of who they really are, blows your fucking mind. Simply because, that soulmate is human, and no immortally wise motherf - cker comes along and lasts forever.
Or is he playing me, and fucking anything he can elsewhere (there is thrill of the chase fetish)? You begin to think you will never get one like yourself....the chemistry, the intensity of love.... so, fuck it.
Even if you love yourself, no fucking body wants to be alone. We weren't meant to be, so you have to face the fuckery of heartache over and over, if you dont want to be lonely.
The moment you are happy with being by your fucking self, that is when love comes along and adds precarious, uncomfortable, change.The more you embrace the happiness and do everything fucking right , the more the loss will hurt when it happens, and the resulting depression will be fucking staggering.
The moment you can laugh again, you will forever remember it with bittersweetness...
Just the fucking facts
My mother has this amazing fucking plaque in her kitchen. It says: "If a man, who cannot count, finds a four leaf clover, is he enitiled to happiness?"
What do you fucking think?

I ventured into her secret garden
drawn by her ripe fruit
Hanging heavy and swollen
On swaying boughs
Waiting for her open blossom
tempted by that honey sweet
dripping nectar..
There my tongue could dance
and delve between the
Moist petals
Of her sprawling rapture.

Quinn
My phone rang me for the twentieth time today.Yet, another of Quinn's friends on the line. And again, another single guy looking to flirt and hope I will go out with him. It started on the second day Quinn was gone....
Like, you can't wait for his body to get in the dirt? Smmfh
Truly the last thing I am thinking of is some man in my life...
I just started attempting to file away my anger.
Clarity is just now coming back from the shock. When someone dies quickly, suddenly...It takes time to even grasp they are gone. Much less, wrap your head around finality and hop on a date. To speak of what? To happily smile and pretend you're ok? WTF?!?
I am not a robot,you absolute muppet!
My anger seems to be displacing onto twatwaffles that think with their small head
Wake up and realize that I deserve time to grieve. Im thinking about making a fishbowl email and send out, "Drop a business card and I'll call if I'm interested"...

Black Widowess

The term Black Widow is used in conjunction with a female who has more than one spouse/partner die. As of a week ago Wednesday, I am now a member of that club. The call came at 9 am from a friend
"Nikki, um, they think Quinn is dead"
"What!? Oh my god...oh my god" Tears started streaming down my face instantly
"Let me find out details I;ll call back shortly"
"I sat there absorbing and my phone began ringing and dinging with everyone I knew trying to tell me. I just sat and watched the calls waiting for Xavier to call back.
Finally, it was him on the line
"Hello" I gasped into the phone
"Yes, it is him Nikki, I'm just so sorry. He was at Rodney's house cause he was drunk and Rodney didn't want him driving. He fell asleep on the couch and they awoke to him dead"
"Holy shit Xavier"Tears pouring down my face "Thank you for calling me I have to call his sister"
Yes we had been broken up for only a couple months. I was trying to sort it all out as the phone rang. When she picked up, I asked her to sit down before giving her the tragic news. Her wails were equal to mine when my husband passed. I listened, not saying much until she stopped.
"I'll let you know anything I hear. I have to get dressed and go tell some people who can help. I'll meet you when you fly in" I assured her and hung up the phone. That moment was one of chaos in my brain, memories flashing like a slide show.
It took a few hours to absorb and then it dawned on me...
Tim
Adam
and now Quinn?
Who has that many lovers/partners die in 4 short years time??
It's been a hell of a week with autopsies, family, funeral arrangements, memorial parties, hundeds of people who have called, texted, come up to me to express their condolences. It exhausts me truly.
I want to comfort them but I am dead inside. Overwrought...worried to ever love again...
Isolation feels safer for myself and everyone around me
Perhaps I should affix a warning label to my forehead
Black Widowess Beware!

The Challenges of Being a Hobbit In Real Time
|
Posted:Jun 27, 2023 4:11 am
Last Updated:Mar 29, 2024 9:58 pm 10394 Views

The joke in my family is that I am actually a Hobbit. The reason for this is I am vertically challenged, at a mean 5'3 (when I stretch my back as straight as possible). In school, the saying was, "Dynamite comes in small packages"
The Hobbit analogy stemmed from, not only my height challenge, but the fact that I have genetically large feet. Thank goodness I am not hairy on my feet,because aT best they would be endearingly cute, in that "Bless your heart" souhern way.
Its an embarrassing trait, since women are supposed to be dainty. I tell people that I order my shoes online, because they only carry one of my size, per shipment, in any retail establishment. If I don't get there before the cross dessers,drag queens,and all the heavy women do, I am SOL.
One time,I took my spawn with me to a shoe store.She was precociously 6.They had 3 pairs of my size, which is rare. I happily grabbed the finds up and proceeded to the front desk. The clerk took them and checked each box for matching sizes.
He looked up and said, "These aren't for you are they?"
Me: Yes why?
Him: Step back a second
I step back
Him: You just don't look like the size woman who would wear this size shoe
And before I could respond, my precious spawn loudly proclaims and it echoes out through the store "I got big feet, just like my mommy!!"
Me" Great, can I just pay for my fucking shoes?"
So I gave up shopping for shoes in person and I never tell a man in my life what size I wear. You get one guess each, as to what that dreaded number is...
Any smart assery will get you one of my gargantuan shoes to your ass 
NowI'm off to the shire and my Hobbit house.
