Confronting my breeder-phobia

confronting-my-breeder-phobia

I’ve been noticing it a lot lately. Most recently, I went to Sprouts to grab a quick sandwich and then do some shopping. But when I looked for a place to sit and eat, all of the tables and chairs had been taken up by these two twenty-something mothers and their broods of strawberry-blond, blue-eyed [...]

Another Small Step Forward

another-small-step-forward

Recently, I’ve been dealing with “the health care system”. Not something I enjoy. Even though I’ve worked for health insurance companies, even though I currently work in a health care related field, I’m not a big fan of doctors when it comes to me. In fact, I’ve lived without health insurance for the last 5 [...]

Hi, I’m Pseudo-Preggo!

hi-im-pseudo-preggo

OK… here’s the big thing that’s crazy. And that I just-so-happen to be “suffering” from… I mean, I’m enjoying it, but whatever…
The big thing? My body thinks I’m Preggers…as I have a bad back, bad knees, and cannot lay on my stomach when sleeping. Well, the last one isn’t really because of pain, it’s because [...]

PDA

pda

It feels delicious to walk through a crowd, my fingers intertwined with hers, and feel her thumb caressing the back of my hand. Or to stand next to her and feel her hand slip into the back pocket of my jeans, pulling me a little closer. To lean against her in a booth [...]

My friends & family know me to be a person who “says it like it is.” This pic is me at a recent anti-war rally. I could have said “USA out of Iraq” or “Impeach” but the truth is this country has a painful history of going around killing brown people whenever it suits us. [...]

National Self Injury Awareness Day

national-self-injury-awareness-day

Approximately 1% of the United States population uses physical self-injury as a way of dealing with overwhelming feelings or situations, often using it to speak when no words will come. Despite the fact that self-injury is far from rare, myths and misunderstanding surround this psychological ailment — mistaken ideas that often result in self-harmers being [...]

Lesbian Feminism?

lesbian-feminism

When I was a kid I always thought feminists and lesbians were the same. When I discovered my own sexuality and finally, at 15, began the grueling process of coming out, I realized how wrong I was as a kid. To gain a little more perspective on the subject, I did search the net for [...]

looking for my life

looking-for-my-life

I wanted to write about June’s topic, internet relationships, because… well… apparently I’m really good at them. I think I’m really good at real-life relationships too, but I’ll admit that I do like the aspect of getting to know someone from the inside out. But that’s neither here nor there. It’s July, which means new [...]
