Damn.  I had an "afternoon delight" that was mediocre today.  Why is it that bad sex makes me want good sex more?

I want you.
It's the stupid details that my heart is breaking for.
It's the way your shoulders shake and what they're shaking for.
It's knowing that he knows you now after only guessing.

I want you.
It's the thought of him undressing you or you undressing.
I want you.
- Elvis Costello, "I Want You"

Show us a mannequin.

Oh, wait.  You said mannequin, not marionette. 
My bad

Whose house (besides your own) were you in last and why?

Well, lesseee....
I was in my house, but the one that NSEX lives in and since it's not where I live, I guess it counts, last night because I had to shut the garage door because he went out and didn't close it.  (does just being in the garage count?)
I was in k's, which, while I consider it home (even more than I consider the place I live home) really isn't where I live, on Friday and Saturday.
And I was at the place I live this morning before I left for work. 

A complex answer to a simple question...

Based on a conversation I had with a friend over dinner last night.  It's so very true...

In a soldier's stance
I aimed my hand
At the mongrel dogs who teach
Fearing not that I'd become my enemy.
In the instant that I preach,
My pathway lead by confusion boats
Mutiny from stern to bow.

But I was so much older then
I'm younger than that now.

Yes, my guard stood hard when abstract threats,
Too noble to neglect,
Deceived me into thinking
I had something to protect.
Good and bad,
I define these terms
Quite clear,
No doubt,
Somehow.

Ah, but I was so much older then,
I'm younger than that now.
- Bob Dylan, "My Back Pages"

Ones that I'll never have:

What's your ultimate rainy day song?
Submitted by J-Len.

Depends on the type of day.  These are the ones that come to mind right now and can always change.  Because there is no "ultimate" song.
Answer - Sarah McLachlan
Strong Persuader - Robert Cray
A Go Go - John Scofield
Box of Rain - Grateful Dead
Royal Station 4/16 - Melissa Etheridge
Wind Beneath My Wings - Sheena Easton
Darling Nikki - Prince

I'm sure there's more.  And I'm sure that I'm forgetting an obvious one or six.  But those are the ones that come to mind.

And as I know there are people who identify as gay, queer and lesbian as well as bi who read my blog, I'm going to post a link to this editorial:

Why Do Lesbians Hate Bisexuals

What a joke. Bi folk get it twice of course – as well as straightforward homophobia, they also have to face biphobia from both the straight and gay community.

I've experienced it, so I know it's true.  I just wonder as to why people are so intolerant.  Why does attraction scare people so?

Liking this album.  I need to give it a better listen and see if I love it.  But this song seems to be sticking with me.

From one moment to the next
Reading in the papers
To know what's best.
Sometimes you don't know yourself.

Eating lots of vitamins for your health
From one moment to the next,
Reg negativity in the street.
Maybe it's the dirt
Maybe it's the heat.
A baby on the bus
Might have needs so easy.

Now I think it's alright we're together.
Now I think that's alright yeah.
Now I think it's the best you've ever played it.
-Animal Collective, "For Reverend Green"

What most excites you about the way you're living your life right now?

Woo hoo!  It only took them 6 days to ask a question that there's no way I'm answering fully on a public blog.

I love that I am free. 
I'm excited by the people currently in my life. 
I am excited about the possibilities that exist in new people. 
I'm excited about the plans I have in the works for what I want to do with my life.

Passion excites me.  And for the first time probably ever, I have passion in my life.

And that's all you're getting.  ;)

WTF is up with no updated QOD or Voxhunt for the past week?  It's part of the reason I hit vox first thing in the morning...
Geez, now I might have to come up with something to really blog about.

Bring it back!!!!!
