"Quick Mum phone the police now," I urged, "our combined weights and over four inches of wood is not going to hold him up for long."

"Do it Mum, now!" said Taran as she pushed as hard as she could, standing next to me.

Mum dialed the numbers.

Part Fourteen, by Michelle Wilder

We gotta make a decision
We leave tonight or live and die this way

I remember we were driving driving in your car
The speed so fast I felt like I was drunk
City lights lay out before us
And your arm felt nice wrapped 'round my shoulder
And I had a feeling that I belonged
And I had a feeling I could be someone, be someone, be someone

(Fast Car, by Tracy Chapman)

I Carry On

I look out the window, my forehead leaning against the cold glass, trying to see her. I let out a deep, troubled sigh as I search for her. She’s got to be out there somewhere, but how in the hell am I supposed to find her?

I ponder going out there after her, searching for her, never resting until I find her… but I know that I can not. Four weeks after my surgery, the flesh is most definitely too weak no matter how willing the spirit.

When the garden's flowers,
baby, are dead
Yes, and your mind,
your mind is so full of red

Don't you want somebody to love
Don't you need somebody to love
Wouldn't you love somebody to love
You better find somebody to love

(Somebody to Love, by Darby Slick)

Happy Tax Day

Submitted by on

Several years ago, my dad nearly missed being there with my mom when her labor reached its peak, as he ran down to get his tax papers into the mail before the deadline. Ever since I've really been aware of taxes, I've celebrated Tax Day, trying to remember not to let paperwork get in the way of people, and trying not to be too disappointed when others do.

She cradled the guitar with the neck up by her shoulder, closed her eyes and began to warm up by playing some adlibbed Flamenco. When she got into the flow of the music, she began to play ‘La Malagueá±a’. The girls began to Tango when Angel played ‘La Cumparsita’. Angel just let the music carry her away as she kept on playing and smiling.

Luna by Julie Anne Peters

Submitted by on

Well, all the hoopla about Amazon has accomplished something positive for me, at least. I found a great book that I'd like to recommend (I didn't buy it from Amazon - I downloaded it as an ebook from Fictionwise). It's entitled Luna, by Julie Anne Peters, and it was simply outstanding.

Suppression of GLBT literature by major retailer will not be tolerated!

Submitted by on

I don't do stuff like this very often, in fact, I've never done it. I'm asking for everyone who can and does not fear to do so to go to every social news and networking sites they can and make sure that this action by Amazon does not get "disappeared." We are here, we read books, we buy books and we will not be stuffed into a closet, even if some of us live in one.

"You smoke pot?” Erika was in a state of disbelief.

"Relax, I don't smoke it all the time. Just occasionally.”

Erika took a drink of her fuzzy navel, then looked around in alarm, the music which was almost shaking the house was now gone.

Suspended under a twilight canopy
We'll search the clouds for a star to guide us
If by some chance you find yourself loving me
We'll find a cloud to hide us
We'll keep the moon beside us

Picture eraser virus?

Submitted by on

I have lots of pictures on my Laptop and almost always put them there using Paint simply because to me the simplest way to do something is the most elegant. I have never had trouble re-opening them later.

Well, I have a friend who lives in Mosul, Iraq, and recently she sent me a picture of herself. For some reason, I could see the picture but could not save it to Paint. Last night I tried to open it and where her picture should have been was this little blank screen thumbnail, and I could not open her pic.
