Merry Monday - Decisions

Some decisions are easy like stopping off at Wal-Mart to buy deodorant when you're running early for class and are pretty sure you forgot to put some on this morning. Having some in your locker is handy anyway and if you need something else you've been meaning to pick up, you might as well grab that too.
Other decisions we put off for various reasons. Sometimes it's hope that things will change or maybe we don't want to hurt someone's feelings. And sometimes we don't want to come off as insensitive, heartless, or selfish. Maybe we just don't want to admit some harsh truths to ourselves.

All this to say that I had to admit to myself that something wasn't working and put and end to it. I'm a little sad about it, but ultimately I think it'll lead to happier days overall.

2024 - Week 5

It was still January for most of this week, a.k.a. The Neverending Month. Then it became February! Each month, I do pull a card from my Music Oracles deck. Last month was Bob Marley. February's card is Nina Simone. A piano playing rebel & multiple genre legend will hopefully make for a phenomenal month ahead. I still haven't done a goals post for 2024. January was a lot. My goals for this year are: - Complete Sparker and query agents. - Complete The Curse of... and submit it to a screenplay contest. - Complete the declutter of Tiny Condo. - Blog at least once per week. - Cross train for curling and softball. - Learn piano. - Self-care with crafts, reading, gaming, and sports. I've tweaked my schedule to make this happen. I'd also like a partner, but I feel weird about setting it as a goal.

Frisky Friday - Maple Syrup Porn

[caption id="attachment_10523" align="alignright" width="300"] Image created using Bitmoji[/caption] While delving into some Canadian film history this week, I learned that there is a thing called Maple Syrup Porn. I laughed when I read the term. I thought, "Is our adult film industry really called Maple Syrup Porn?" It's not. Some is Canadian, but it mostly refers to getting around censorship of sex. It was not only common in Quebec due to religion, but several places in the US. You can read more about it here . If you're looking to heat things up this weekend, consider a sweet old film from the early days of the sexual revolution. Maybe even drizzle a little syrup on your partner ;) Guid cheerio the nou, R~
