Oh, it wasn't a surprise, just a comment. I'm loving it too. Reminds me of the hopefulness of the '60s (it wasn't *all* sex, drugs and rock 'n roll). What happened in Madison this morning? I haven't got to a TV yet today.

This past weekend there were rallies in many state capitols all over the US supporting the demonstrations in Madison, WI as well as the uprisings in other parts of the world. The mainstream press is either not reporting on them or glossing over these events. For example, the rally my husband...

I'd love to talk

As are we all, I think. Talking helps, as does writing. Just *before* I read about John's death, I posted a piece in my blog written following my last brush with suicide and coming through to the light. You're such a good froend.

It's hard when you've been there/done that and want to put it behind you. Before I read the post about John's death, I posted an essay-blog thingie I wrote after my last brush with suicide. It's about coming out on the other side to the sunlight. If you want to talk, PM me.

Childhood Favorites I loved biographies and read the whole series in out little public library--about 100 in all Horse stories, anything to do with horses, but in particular William Farley's The Black Stallion series and Mary O'Hara's My Friend Flicka, Thunderhead, and The Green Grass of...

INFJs and polyamory "multiamory" Agreed. I'n not promoting polygamy; I just don't have anything against it and it works for the three of us in many ways, some practical, some emotuinal. Our relationships with each other are unique and each requires work, tolerance and compassion. The...

INFJs and polyamory "multiamory" Yes, it is nice, but it's not my keyboard that's malfunctioning; it's my coordination. I really have to proof my posts more until my coordination stops slipping. Addendum: I think the success or failure of poly relationships rest on the type of peoplr...

Thanks for the comment. I had no idea anyone was reading it.

INFJ and polyamory "mulyiamory" I live in a polugamous relationship with my partner of 17 years and my husband of two month. We have all known each other about the same length of time, but it wasn't until ywo years ago that my friendship with my husban became romantic/sexual. My partmer gabe...

The comment part was blank but thanks for the rep or whatever they're called now. I'm curious as a cat, though, and would love to know what struck you in that long, rambling post.

What's your favotite color of eyes? :) For years I though it was the intensity and clarity in my husband's unusual blue eyes, but lately I've come to realize it's the directness of his gaze that is so thrilling and probably attracted me in the first place. So for me it's bot the color but the...

This is probably more rational than my approach, but I think we may be talking apples and oranges. I determine whether I'm physically *capable* of doing something myself before asking for help, partly because most people do feel obligated to help once they see the wheelchair; in fact, they...

Fo you have the ability to ask for help? My therapist of many years once described me as "pathologically independent." I took it as a compliment. Imagine my gorror when I became conscious of my conditioni immediately after th strke, which was complretely helpless. Whil I was in ICU I didn't...

Post it now! You Are Curious You love learning for its own sake, and you're attracted to subjects that are deep and dynamic. You are intellectual and studious. You tend to get lost in whatever you're studying or doing.
