Welcome Home My Love

Welcome Home My Love

She has become my life, my home. Home is a place to feel safe and loved and understood and she brings all that to me. I start each day with her and I send her to bed each night. Once I go to bed I leave a recording for her so that she has a message from me when she gets up each morning. By the time I wake up… Read More »Welcome Home My Love

Lingua Franca

Lingua Franca

  • by

Lillith replied to a tweet about the pet names she liked and it got me thinking about the language we build with those closest to us. The words that we use in everyday language can take on whole new meanings with the special people in our lives. We develop this common language over time as we learn about each other, as we share our lives, our past and our present.… Read More »Lingua Franca

Life during wartime letters

Life During Wartime

  • by

It isn’t exactly a war and yet we have all taken shelter. She has sent me a great many letters to help me with my “Woe” (a subject for another post) and each of them is more moving than the last. I savor them. I treasure them. I have a system, before I read her latest letter to me I go back and read all the ones she has sent… Read More »Life During Wartime

Windmills for Honor Bound

Honor Bound

I missed the kink of the week prompt for this. I did try, I started writing a story that I though might just squeak in both in timing and in content. But work and the world got in the way and I didn’t finish the story. I will because I think it is a good one but I will take my time with it. But in a way I am… Read More »Honor Bound

Show Your Work

Show Your Work

Anyone remember math class from school? I remember it very well in spite of the fact that it was an eternity ago. I was always pretty good at math, but my handwriting was so terrible that my homework and tests often got poor grades because of it. The one thing that came to my mind when I saw the prompt for Wicked Wednesday was perseverance was the one good thing… Read More »Show Your Work

A Birthday apart

A Birthday Apart

  • by

Today is a special day for someone that is new to my life. Someone unexpected. Someone that has brought me so much happiness. She loves my strangeness and my strange life. She even seems to love me for those things. So I find myself here in a new place. A place of hope even as the rest of the world falls apart. When just a few months ago I thought… Read More »A Birthday Apart

Piss and vinegar

Full of Piss and Vinegar

This is your one chance to look away. I recently wrote a guest post for Joanne’s Reviews about this and maybe you should go and read that first. She went into the worlds oddest bathroom to have a shower. I say it was odd because strangely in this tiny AirBnB the toilet was in a room just off the kitchen and the shower/mini bath and sink were in another room… Read More »Full of Piss and Vinegar

A Feast of Love

A Feast of Love

Most people know that I love to cook. It brings me great joy. Not just in the act of creating a meal, but it how it is received by the people who consume it. There is a peace and calmness that comes with making a meal. The steps and the and timing of getting it all done so that everything is ready at once makes me focus and in a… Read More »A Feast of Love

The Loop

The Loop

It had been a brilliant 3 days, full of love, laughter and really filthy sex. I was so very happy that we had this time to spend together. But the time was growing short and soon we would both be on our way back to our respective countries and LDR. We hadn’t really seen much of the city, our attention had naturally been on all those things that we had… Read More »The Loop

We belong in Paris

You belong to me, I belong to you and we belong in Paris

The title is true, mostly, the first part is absolutely true and while we do belong in Paris, it really could be any city in any country, anywhere in the world. Because the place doesn’t matter. Only one thing matters and that is that we are together. This will be our second time together and if the first was any indication I expect it will be just like that, only… Read More »You belong to me, I belong to you and we belong in Paris
