  • a weekend at home

    well good morning everyone! I trust you all had a pleasant weekend? I sure wish mine could’ve stretched for another day or so ;0)

    Peter came home from his first week of training on Friday evening. BOY was it good to have him home! we spent the remainder of the evening nesting and catching up. Saturday saw us going to the Lotus Pond (more like a lake) for my IDAHO Challenge submission. I’d seen the Tiger Dragon Towers on so many postcards and thought it would work perfectly. turns out I was right *LOL* only problem was the sound capture on my camera (stills) – which turned out to be horrible… here’s hoping the people at gays.com have a wizard on staff who takes pity on my submission!

    on the way home we stopped for some roasted duck to take home for dinner. it was awesome! next time you’re on Liouhe St in Kaohsiung, check my Twitter for the intersection’s name. you won’t be sorry!

    Sunday we settled in for some quality WoW time before he headed back for week 2.

    it’s my stop.
    Later!

  • Taiwan pride/drawing a blank

    this week’s taken it all out of me *LOL* I’ve got time to tap out a blog post on the MRT this morning – but try as I might, the words escape me! (so I’m just rattling on to see what happens, okay?)

    I really need to finish my video for the IDAHO Challenge. had to settle for the video clip function on my camera, because the deadline is tomorrow! I did get some disturbing news though… apparently NO submissions from Taiwan yet!

    for a people still “waiting” for equal rights and gay marriage – they seem awfully placid and reluctant to make themselves count. could it be that Taiwan LGBT Pride is just a masquerade?

    Note: If we stay in our closets, there is nobody to be taken seriously.

    you want to be accepted and free to live your own life? then open your mouth and live your truth!!

  • in waking life

    last night I dreamt of my birthday – and for the first time ever, I remember a hint if dread… I’m edging away from 30 – which is not a frightening thought, really. 40 isn’t so scary either. I dated a 40 year old in my 20s, no biggie. (besides the fact that he turned out to be a schizophrenic sociopath… but enough of that.)

    so why the sense of dread?
    perhaps it has more to do with the fact that my contract at TFC is comming to an end – and I haven’t found a new job yet. or perhaps I’m worried about financing my trip to SA in August? possibly. most likely, though, I’m scared I won’t be able to provide for my loved ones.

    sheesh!! when did I grow up?

    I’ll be 3¹in three weeks.
    I’ll be unemployed in three months.

    *breathe*
    that’s plenty of time for someone to respond to my applications.
    I’m trying to control things again and putting the cart before the horse in the process.

    hey! It’s Wednesday – half way to the weekend ;0) let’s all relax and have a good one, okay?

    hugs,
    W
