  • Fear of Women

    What fears have you overcome and how? Growing up I was deathly afraid of women. If I liked a girl it would take me six months to work up the courage to ask if she liked me too. I’ve grown up. I dated without becoming an emotional wreck. I’ve had four children from two different…

  • Simple Things

    Describe one simple thing you do that brings joy to your life. I have done several simple things today that brought me joy. None of them are fit to print. I hope your imagination is as good as mine is.

  • Taking a Media Fast

    How do you know when it’s time to unplug? What do you do to make it happen? I haven’t “unplugged” in several years. When I start being completely unproductive I know it’s time for a media fast. The last time I did one I decided I would turn off all my social media and video…

  • A Loyal Friend

    What quality do you value most in a friend? Friendship gets better with time. So it’s important to me that people stick around. Loyalty is a two way street. I want to be available for my friends in times of need. That said I want them to be available in my times of need. I…

    “I’ve been a puppet, a piratea pauper, a poeta pawn and a king.” But seriously folks I’ve never been a king.

  • Lots of Practice

    Do you practice religion? I am very bad at religion so I need a lot of practice. For a few months I haven’t been practicing at all. My religious life is diminishing and starting to atrophy. I haven’t been all that sure lately that I even want to practice religion. After all I’ve been trying…

  • Ancano

    There is a spy in the Mage’s Guild quest line in Skyrim. He blocks the way out of the college library in one of the quests. I didn’t want to talk to him so I decided to see what he would do if I attacked him from a distance. He didn’t fight back and when…

  • The Times Before

    Do you remember life before the internet? I’m Generation X. The first half of my life was an explosion of new technology. I’m one of the first children to have commercial video games. I was a member of Colombia House Record and Tape Club. But like I said a few days ago I entertained myself…

  • Pleasure and Intimacy

    I can entertain myself on my own. I played board games and card games by myself as a child. Granted someone had to produce those things in the first place. The same is true for videos and video games. Once they are up and running I can entertain myself without extra work from the original…
