You see people on TV and in movies exploring these beautiful rocks crusted with sea life. I am absolutely fascinated by sea life. I have a very strong fear of it too, but, I’m in awe none-the-less. I remember falling in love with the idea of mermaids after seeing Splash! with Darryl Hannah. I wanted […]
The Puget Sound Estuarium was hosting a Pier Peer. This would be a great way to see more sea life and get a close look at things. Probably not a smart thing when I already fear everything that is in the water. (Thalassophobia is a b!tch!) This was absolutely neat and weird at the same […]
I can’t say I expected this to end up on here. I knew what dragon boats were. But, with my accepting my fear of the things in the water, this really wasn’t even a thought. The opportunity came up! I kept going back and forth – “It’s a new experience” , “It’s in the ocean”, […]
I’m amazed at how much I find water fascinating and yet I am terrified of it and everything in it. My imagination runs wild with all kinds of things that I could step on, kick, encounter etc. I have been embracing the thalassophobia and enjoying the views and smells instead. The Pacific Ocean, at least, […]
I had a boss quite a while ago that was fascinated with ferries. Honestly I may have been just big boat vessel things. But I specifically remember ferries. I rode one of those with the paddle wheels a few years ago, but after moving to Washington, there are a lot more opportunities to try new […]
Since today marks the anniversary of my birth – I figured it would be a great day to ‘come out’ to everyone that is paying attention. Also – THANK YOU for all of the birthday wishes! I greatly appreciate it! Some of you already know, but MOST do not. And while I fight with myself […]
I’ve seen many people do some neat work at the paint and sips. I always wondered how everyone’s looked fairly decent. Even those complicated looking ones. So – of course this went on the list of things to try. After moving across the country for the second time I needed to find friends. So I […]
I grew up thinking boys wouldn’t like me if I didn’t put out. I wasn’t attractive. HotOrNot.com had me rated at a 4. I had one person say I reminded them of the “Green Thumb Troll” cartoon character. The guys I was able to date, didn’t date me in the ‘public eye’. Sex was the […]
6/19/2021 I have thought about how to write this post over and over again. Started it over and over again. No matter how I start I keep coming up short on portraying the experience I had. This isn’t a post that will have my normal snark in it. It’s not a bright and fun experience. My […]
For my Partners birthday we took advantage of having friends staying with us and spent a weekend in California. It was a fantastic weekend and so many firsts! It was great being able to experience all of this with him. I’ve always thought whale watching was 5,000% out of my league. I’d never have a […]
