Trouble Is At It Again

Scents

Dirty clothes Dirty dishes Crumpled sheets Ashes An aroma Lifts the through the haze. Sinks into the nasal passages Holds me Tight Tighter The clock beat quickens The memories flood You Chocolate luscious Sweet sticky Melting in fingers Free Stunning Gaze averting Dangerous Graced... mine eyes A heartbeat ago... I want it now!! You linger... your scent -J

So today, the 15th, around water coolers, coffee makers and over lunchtime beers guys are comparing what their significant others got them for VDay. They're oooo'ing and awww'ing over new remote controls or the free rounds of golf they were given. They are giving fist bumps for walking in the door to find that reservations were made to their favorite Brewery. You know, the one with a hundred

My blog seems a bit empty and I really don’t feel like I have anything earth shattering to say at this point, so I am going to go back. Back to a time in which the month of October meant 80 degree temperatures and the State Fair of Texas was a yearly wait and see tradition of mine (wait-and-see if I will actually go). I was living in Texas and feeling the need for something different. Antsy. My

For Or Against I have a co-worker who spars with me on political issues from time to time. He is of the mindset a country is either For or Against the US. Hmm.. so there is no middle ground? Can’t disagree on a small issue like Iraq or

At the Texas Relays in 2002. I just liked the cap, never attended.

An interesting 48hrs. Netflix has provided me with an interesting glimpse into England… Great Britain I should say. I sat in awe as I watched Bloody Sunday. It is the documentary style telling of the events in Derry, Ireland on January 30th, 1972. While the event speaks for it’s self, I can only draw my conclusions from what I have read and watched in the account given by the film. To say it

The Lure of TV I am missing my laptop right now. This one for work should be just that. I have found the convenience of having a computer in front of the TV. Very nice. So I neglect my desktops in favor of my laptops and a weathered metal frame futon. Dayum, You Want HOW MUCH?? 1.89 for unleaded here. 2.49 in California. At least 15,000 civilians have died in an invasion in Iraq and we are

Am I Metro? Decleor. No man in his right mind should know anything about this name. Essential oils? Eye contour crème? Special shampoos and conditioners? Real men don’t know of such things. Okie, I mean a man’s man doesn’t do this. Yet there is a category for such a man who walks that fine line between being considered a homosexual (because the stereotype is they take extremely good care of

Obviously, not every mystery is going to be a Hitchcock-ish masterpiece. Along the same lines is it too much to expect a mystery to at least somewhat keep you guessing throughout until the end? Twisted is not that movie. Ashley Judd costars with Samuel L. and Andy Garcia in a police thriller. Someone is killing off men Judd’s character comes into contact with and putting her new job at stake as

I had a dream last night. I was at a theatre and there was time between shows. I decided to pop out into the deserted mall to find a place to get a bite to eat. There was a hamburger stand open. A flame-broiled piece of meat was about to be served to me lathered with mayo and cheese, with a side of fries and a shake?? I was set. All I needed to do was sign the credit card slip and it was on.

I have been away, but I wanted to start coming back to this little spot. I'll restart this by posting a little something I was asked about one day, a soundtrack of my life. Just a top 5 songs that are of importance to your life and how. Well, 5 was impossible and 10 wasn't exactly cutting it so I upped it to 20. There sooo many more songs I could have used, but these 20 reflect my feelings pretty

They play Sportscenter in da club. Da Club being the gentleman’s club. Where the name is derived from I am not sure and truly have not taken the time to figure out. I just know amidst the various types of topless thong clad (or sometimes nude) women is the face of Kenny Mayne. Stuart Scott. Whoever the personality may be. Why is this? Why are sports playing? Why are sports playing? I could

The Mavs have just lost!! Come fishing with my Lakers. Thank you, thank you. I do love it. I am currently on the phone with Pickle talking about the Amazing Adventure. I love being on CDT and talking to her about things I missed on prime time. She suggested I write this blog thingy, so here it is. Ja in 7 days. Ocho Rios. The sand. The sun. Mmm... My birthday. Right now I am pissed at the
