How I did it
How to quietly ink or pierce something
It took me
2 years
It made me
glad all over

How I did it: Got up enough nerve. Took a buddy. Took aim. There was a lot of pain but over in a second. Was it worth it? Sure! Would I dare to go again? Sure! Is it hard to keep quiet about it? Sure! Read how I did it…

How to give as much as (or more than) I get in friendships
It took me
1 year
It made me
Wario!

How I did it: Pick your comrades wisely, and you will surely share the finest bonding and joy known to humankind!Pick like-minded individuals, those who want to receive and give as you do. Reciprocity is key. Giving friendship is a gift.If someone says he's a taker, not a giver... well, you might as well trust him for that. And move along, move along! Read how I did it…

How to give someone a good out-loud belly laugh
It took me
1 month
It made me
Double over!

How I did it: It was easy. I was with someone I really knew well and trusted. This person who laughed out loud with me knows me pretty much inside and out and would do anything - anything! -  to make me happy. I can be myself, goofy or ridiculous as that may be. That's the key to everything. We gave each other the same good out-loud belly laugh. May it always be so easy, so genuine. Read how I did it…

On 9/3 Wish Rat (a staggering Rat of heartbreaking something or other) a Virgo Perfect Storm birthday, filled with good manners, tidy surroundings, tasty food, lovely art, and loads of BACON!!!
Stagger-rat of Heartbreak 1 month ago

I am so late. I’m truly sorry I missed your birthday. I’ve been scarce with unpacking and lost track of everything.
I hope you had a wonderful wonderful time with all the bacon of your dreams. I rustled up some popcorn and thought of you…

Whatever, July 9 4 months ago

Tired of second-guessing.
Tired of the false notion of finding nobility in having no expectation.
Tired of bland.
Tired of always not enough.

Accept limitations, then bust 'em wide open (read all 3 entries…)
There is a bland expanse of prairie 5 months ago

and though I accept it for the here and foreseeable, I can leap like a desert rat through the… wait… there’s brush over by this lonesome highway: small scrubby plants that are quite beautiful as the sun rises and sets on them. And a signpost, bent and dented, a little landmark to show how far I’ve come and what direction is possible whether I choose it or not.
There is a small hole in the dirt by the side of the road. I didn’t notice it before. There may be some animal life in it flourishing underground. Maybe there are hidden pools of water. Maybe I can dig another hole. Maybe lots of them, like black dots, or escape hatches.
Most of all I like being mobile in the desolation. I wonder if I’ll see a hand wave from one of the holes.
