Dear Sir Peter... in Misc JoeUser Forums

Dear Sir Peter, If you'll excuse my being so forward , Sir, but I think I'm your daughter. From what I've been able to ascertain so far, Sir, my mother was in your parent's employ as a housemaid from the summer of 1968 until early 1969. I shan't give her name here, Sir, but I think you'll remember her: she had fair hair, blue eyes and she took your virginity...or should I say, you took hers. Given what little I know about yo

Things you don't know about me... in Misc JoeUser Forums

Hmm...where to begin; there's so much to tell.... I'm listening to Harry Connick Jr, and I'm liking it. I used to be vegan, but couldn't resist the lure of a nice sirloin...which I eat rare, just so you know. I know how to lift latent fingerprints and have my own lifting kit. I like brussel sprouts. I don't like lima beans. I once tackled and cuffed a woman who was attacking a fellow offic

I believe in Sex & Romance JoeUser Forums

I believe.. ..that we are all destined to have one great love in our lifetime. ..that once we have experienced that love we are forever changed. ..and that if we lose that love for some reason we will never love the same way again.

George, Dharma, and a sublime experience. in Misc JoeUser Forums

I had what can only be described as a sublime experience this afternoon. I had purchased George Harrison's Greatest Hits and was contentedly doing some housework whilst listening to it. "My Sweet Lord' came on...and I was, for some reason, moved to tears. I was in the kitchen, singing along at the top of my voice, giving it all I had, clapping, dancing, with a big manic grin on my face and what can only be described as tears of joy s

my experience has led me to believe that it's the natural redheads that we have to worry about. So, Michael, care to expand on that a little? What exactly do you have to worry about? Ahem......my carpet and draperies are perfectly matched, thanks. I get shouts of "red on the hea

But what do YOU want to do? I've had god-knows-how-many jobs in the past, and this is the first thing I've found that I really, truly, enjoy doing. I'm just kicking myself in the ass for waiting so long to pick it up again... Good luck, and let me know what you decide....

'Here I come to save the daaaaay!' in Misc JoeUser Forums

I'm going to do something a little out of character now - toot my own horn for a bit. As you all know, we had a monster storm come in over the weekend (see my blog and associated pics for more details), and everyone got buried in snow. My neighbours got it pretty bad...their truck got drifted in, as did their house. We all spent most of yesterday digging out..I got done around lunch time and retreated inside for hot tea and a nap.<

A day of decisions... in Misc JoeUser Forums

I've decided what I want to do with what's left of my life. Actually, I decided what i wanted to do over a year ago, but just got sidetracked a little.....a lot, really. I'm applying for a Private Investigator's license. I started the classes last year, whilst I was working patrol for a security company, and managed to do quite well....before getting involved in other things (Dave leaving, the accident, etc, etc). I just got despond

Invictus in Philosophy JoeUser Forums

I discovered this poem years ago, but for some reason have thought about it a lot recently.... 'Invictus' by William Ernest Henley. 1849–1903 Out of the night that covers me, Black as the pit from pole to pole, I thank whatever gods may be For my unconquerable soul. In the fell clutch of circumstance I have not winced or cried aloud Under the bludgeonings of chance My head is bloody, but unbow'd. <

Reply to Am I depressed? in Life Journals JoeUser Forums

How long has this been going on for? If it's been a couple of weeks where you've been consistently feeling like this, then yes, I'd say you're probably a little depressed. If that's the case, go see your doc. I'm serious. Too many people look at depression as something that you just need to 'snap out of', failing to realize that it's really a physical thing. It's a chemical imbalance, and sometimes you need a little artificial help to get your bra

Reply to An apology in Marital Issues JoeUser Forums

Thank you for your kind words..we cyber-kissed and made up today. Hopefully I'll be secure enough to not yell and throw a fit if this kind if thing happens again. Sometimes I wonder if I'm really as mature and seasoned as I'd like to think. Oh well, it's all a learning experience.

Reply to Throwing in the Towel in Personal Relationships JoeUser Forums

No, never surrender, never give up on love. Dan's right, there are times when you need, for your own sanity, to step away..but always, always leave the door open. I've been married to my best friend and confidant for 10 years ...and whilst we're happy together now there were times when we were ready and willing to give it all up. Saving a relationship takes work, and it aint easy...but in the end it is (for me anyway) sooooo worth it

Reply to JoeUser resembling High School in Blogging JoeUser Forums

Cliques? I dunno 'bout that....I agree with Mack, I'd call them more like friendships too. People are going to hang with those they feel an affinity with, those who have the same ideas and beliefs..whether it be in High School, online, wherever. It's just human nature, I think.
