I heard you whisper last week
your lips were pressed against my ear.
And even though the words have passed
the message is still clear.
It really meant something.
The calm one, the one with the reason…his tongue is raw with truth, and my ears bleed faith. My deft eyes claim certainty. It was well hidden between the curtain and the guillotine.
My devoted hands work tirelessly to articulate a minstrel's vow. The commission of such an act gives me a unique sense of purpose, and helps stave off the return of my old internal debate.
I am afraid to stop, my mind fraught with hindsight. Unsure if it will hold, I test the bindings.
Secure.
p.s. some speak in tides, others ride the waves in silence.

Immersion is a tried and true method. Good luck to you.
night mayo!
I hope the message is clear......
THIRD!
Don't worry, whatever message you have will be heard in the end.
hello mayo.
I hope you are surviving your internal turmoils.
Tis the season to look back then focus forward
sometimes the quiet is the easiest to hear amidst the clamour and noise
Whispers are heard, but sometimes they take a little while to sink in.
well, don't stop, but feel free to tell us who you are. I think by now you should realize it's not an issue.
and are you still all lurky mclurkin? Cuz I've never been here for that, and that would be cool.
and somebody needs to put that link up....
From ourselves and to each other,
to Mayo and SS,
we've brought our gifts to one place:
the tree is this address....

under-this-tree.html
mayo, what a post. it makes my head swim a little. i'll have to read it a few times over with my heart open to see if i can hear what your words are saying, but at this moment, i would say it sounds like you received a gift, an intangible one.
don't worry about being worthy of it -- you are.
Under this tree....
Mayo I'm sorry I'm not skilled at linking, but we've all created gifts to you and each ohther, some are still in production. It would be lovely if you could find the time to have a look.
I do like your post, especially the "secure"
I hope you are well, and whatever you have been told helps you to live your life hapilly and fruitfully
Your friend must be an amazing person
This is the slowest collection of comments at a new post ever!
mayo, what's a minstrel's vow?
TJ - a musicians promise?
still not much clearer- lol
well, my background in medievalism makes me wonder if it isn't something specific.
*googlefu time*
Enjoy the prezzies, Mayo, see how much we care? I've gotta go to bed, gotta serve pizza at the Christmas party tomorrow at my kid's school. Love you all!!
see you later, carrie. ^.^
well, my googlefu isn't the strongest in the world, and the greater chance is that i'm over-thinking it (once again).
mayo, are you here? is this a question you can answer?
Tjk it sounds like it to me too but I can't find anythig
goodnight carrie!Hope the party goes well (I did that last Thursday!)
Mayo are you about?
Care to say hi? maybe elaborate a little?
I stepped away and here we are.
Mayo dear, I probably should not respond because I am always a little confused in the evenings. I like to take my time and ponder. And well, I seem to make weird assumptions on the first read-through so I really need to start taking my time. I will respond soon.
P.S. Love to you and yours.
and I have obviously lost my ability to type!
Geez one bourbon and cola and I lose it lol ( no actually I am typing sideways which is really hard!)
well, ergo, maybe he's off reveling in all his gifts. :)
i kinda liked "tjk" -- it looks very exotic.
here's a little bit of a secret truth for you, mayo:
for all that i can write a comment to you paragraphs long, when i know (or suspect) you're online, i have so much difficulty in thinking of anything to say.
i give you my first response to your post, maybe aske a question, but mostly i just sit here and watch the screen, and refresh, and hope you'll say something.
i always feel like i'm on the phone with someone, and the line is silent, and i'm just waiting...
and if i listen very closely, i can almost imagine i hear you...
smoking?
did i just hear you sigh out a stream of smoke?
*presses phone to ear and waits*
Why are comments deleted so soon?
Mayo, you still there?
anima the deletions were me - I tried linking but I suck badly at it!
My talents obviously lie elsewhere.
TJ I do the same thing! Or wait for someone else to say something deep and respond
but it looks like it's just a few of us tonight
i'm much better at this in person.
real conversation doesn't require typing skills and proof-reading.
Ergo, thank you for letting me know; very sweet of you.
I must go to bed now. Love to all of you.
P.S. Mayo, I'm sure I will have more to say tomorrow but it really doesn't matter - I talk bs all the time. ;)
good night, anima. sweet dreams.
goodnight anima
so TJ just you and me!
lol
the diehards
Guess who can't sleep tonight?
Yeah surprised?
Hi sdock sorry you can't sleep, but at least you've got something to read!
hey there sdock. how are you doing? (aside from insomnia, i mean)
Fights for rights
Everyone’s oh so quick with advice
And when they’ve all said their piece
It’s still you I....
yep, pretty much just like that, anon.
too true anon
(though now I have "Fight for your Right to Party" - Beastie Boys in my head)
Lovely poem mayonaise :) Arew you ok? Will this christmas be a good one for you? I really hope so
hello SIM
how are you?
lol ergo -- we really must be the same person!
hey there, shame in me. ^.^
Hey guys!
hello ergo and toujors!!! How are you both? where is everyone? I cant sleep, im hungry so im gonna make breakfast and go back to bed!! Its awfully quiet around here and Mayo is earlier than expected
How are you all doing?
My neck is freaking killing me!!
I think I'm too tense or something.
shhhhhhhhhhhh
don't tell.
we are twins separated only by a few years and a few thousand miles and different parents- it's uncanny!!
hey sdock, put a scarf on love :)
tense, i can understand, though i'm sure it's or entirely diferent reasons. from what i gather, you had a very rough day sdock. i'm sorry to hear it.
for myself, i think i just need to go to bed.
i'll say good night to you all, sdock, and shame in me, and ergo, and leave you guys to hold down the fort. :)
take to you all later.
hey sim sdock I'm good just getting dinner organised
have you got a hot pack sdock?
btw, that's "for", "different", and "talk".
certain proof it's time for me to sleep.
Nope, I got nothing. Not even any good pain meds...I think I need a muscle relaxer.
goodnight TJ
sweet dreams twinny
sdock - cup of tea?
or soak a handtowel in hot water or wet it and put it in the microwave?
Mayo,
It's 3 AM here and I must be lonely. Sorry, that's a Matchbox Twenty song and I couldn't resist. Good to see I have a sense of humor at this hour. Bet I won't have one in about 5 hours though.
I'm a little munchy so thanks for giving me something new to nibble on. It feels so good to be back in my corner again. I might get comfortable enough here that sleep finds me again. Maybe?
Mayo, I am always afraid to stop too. Stopping leaves my mind to worry and to dwell. What do I dwell on? The stuff I can't change and the stuff that hasn't even happened yet. Could have, should have, would have...I must learn to live in the now.
Let me roll the post around on my tongue some more before I start spewing off at the mouth.
I hope wherever you are tonight that you are having better luck at sleeping than I am, my friend.
Love to YOU Always,
S
p.s. Tied up in faith, hope, and love.
that is of course drink a nice cup of tea and put the towl on your neck
we are twins separated only by a few years and a few thousand miles and different parents- it's uncanny!!
it's just so twilight zone. O_O
*cue spooky music*
TJ seriously you are one talented artist!!
You could draw for me anyday.
Sitting here in front of this computer probably isn't helping either.
So I guess I had better go.
G'nite/G'morning to Mayo and to all!
Love you all bunches!
aw, thanks ergo!
i had a lot of fun with that!
(what do you need, drawing-wise?)
good night, sdock. i'm sending you some sweet dreams!
goodnigth sdock, hope the day dawns and sets beautifully for you
TJ nothing springs to mind but knipp, knapp and knopp are toooo cute!
^.^
they commissioned a portrait for mayo. how could i turn them down? they had worked so hard on that little banner. :)
It was charming. The coffee break, too.
thank you, redrum. that means a lot to me, coming from you. i admire what you do, very much.
This just in: A new variety of kryptonite has been discovered. Sources say it comes in the form of unexpected compliments. Film at 11.
Squirming notwithstanding, I appreciate that. And you should definitely keep at it.
Good grief... how do you mix up the word order on a word that long?
Too talkative now, pushing my luck. TTFN.
Here's to you, and here's to me, to friends I hope we'll always be, but if by chance we disagree, to hell with you and here's to me!
***************************
Are you taking care Mayo?
I hope so lovely.
Happy holidays everyone.
xoxo, cupcake.
Hi cupckae, goodbye redrum
well I'm off to have dinner, see you all tomorrow,night TJ twinny
goodnight Mayo hope the new day brings you peace, joy and happiness!!
hello cupcake, good to see you around these parts. ^.^
ergo, you're leaving? oh dear -- just how long ago was it that i said i was going to bed?
*shakes head at crow-self*
i'm making my good nights to mayo, and i'm going. no looking back.
no, really.
mayo,
though it sounds like it was hard for you, i'm glad that you and he were able to communicate, and hopefully, came to understand each other. that's always such a lovely feeling.
but you're running, still. and even though the things you choose to distract yourself with are good things, and creative things, still -- it's a distraction. it's not a cure.
mayo, just stop. just try it. it's a good season for the attempt, at it's heart. underneath the glitter and lights, there's a healing and restorative silence. sit down, do nothing, let yourself tap into it.
oh, it won't be easy. you'll fidget. you'll decide on three different dinners -- no, five. you will have the noisiest thoughts, and they will circle through your head, but sit on your hands, leave your thoughts to their own devices, and persevere. give whatever it is you're running from a chance to catch up, so you can face it, and stare it down.
you probably have obligations in your life that will prevent you from really trying this. it will seem easier to keep running. but until you learn how to keep still, i honestly fear for you. the thought of you afraid to stop is what frightens me.
find the balance, mayo, and breathe.
be well, and good night.
MAYO
An early Xmas present, for you, and for everyone.

xoxo cupcake.
Well Mayo you snuck in wearing another lovely Christmas sweater and I missed it. Damn, being sick sucks. I've slept on and off for the past 2 days. Not sure why I got up now but I didn't miss you by much.
I am afraid to stop, my mind fraught with hindsight. Unsure if it will hold, I test the bindings.
For some reason these words stood out to me. Running, always running afraid to stop. Hindsight although clear is useless. Stop; look at where you are in life. Is it what you've always wanted? Are you truly happy? If it is then stop running. Just be happy. You deserve it.
Okay then, I just took more cold medicine and now things are moving on the screen that really shouldn't be moving. Sorry I missed you. Take care.
Oh and Mayo….let go and be happy.
Hello, I just wanted to say -I very much liked Cupcakes poem. I think it would just so on a tee shirt.
Toujours you always seem to say something wise and thoughtful. I think maybe you understabd what is more important in life than some of us do, or care to daily. With that, and I do apologize if I am being too personal -I hope your treatments are going well. And I wish you a full remission instead of a full stocking for Christmas.
According to dictionary.com (possibly not to Mayo) A mistrel is 1. a medieval poet and musician who sang or recited while accompanying himself on a stringed instrument, either as a member of a noble household or as an itinerant troubadour.
2. a musician, singer, or poet. And a vow (just for perspective) is 1. a solemn promise, pledge, or personal commitment: marriage vows; a vow of secrecy.
2. a solemn promise made to a deity or saint committing oneself to an act, service, or condition.
3. a solemn or earnest declaration.
Hope everyone is doing well tonight, especially The Quiet One -who has endeared me greatly for seemingly cheering up our (if I may be so bold) Mr. Mayo. -L
Mayo,
That's ususally when you do realize that something matters, you know, when you least expect it. Trouble is, sometimes it's when it's already gone. Hindsight is a sonofabitch. When I first read this post, I almost felt sad. It made me feel like you are still running from something. In some way, I think you are but when I read it again, I kind of felt better. You almost sound calm. You sound like you are in control somehow. I hope so, Mayo. Just don't let worrying about the past control your future. If it's something that can still be rectified, do it. I hope one day you can be at peace with everything inside of you.
Thank you again, Mayo. For letting us stay here. For letting us ramble and give advice and tell you our stories.
Thank you.
I hope you have a wonderful Christmas.
Hugs and Kisses!
Princess S&V20
P.S. - Don't forget to check out all the special stuff you got! Ok, that didn't exactly sound the way I meant it. The special stuff under the Christmas tree, that is. ^_~
Good Morning Mayo!
My friend, how are you? I'm up for good this time. I managed to catch a couple more hours, but I am destined to feel like absolute crap today. I can feel it.
I'm still reading and re-reading your post....hearing, listening, feeling, acknowledging, learning, trying, thinking, reassuring, overcoming, promising, finding, realizing stopping (if only for a second), questioning, testing, and finally, trusting. Does that about sum it up?
Keep trusting yourself, Mayo and keep listening with your heart. Because I faithfully believe in yours.
Must get ready for work now. We'll talk more later when I ease my way back into my comfortable spot in the corner.
Until then....
Put your heart out there for everyone to see how beautiful it truly is. You never know just how many might need to see yours because they have forgotten how to use theirs.
Love to YOU Always,
S
p.s. If you can't stop, then at least slow down.
First of all, I hope this means that you are working this stuff out. I hope that "he" is the same one from the debate. I hope that he's the one you're listening to.
This sounds like a really private post though,and often I get the feeing that you're just keeping a journal, like, what journals are for, and you really don't require our input. So then, good luck to you.
As for us, EPIC FAIL. We really thought you were going to post tonight instead of last night; we had plans, you see. ^_^
Our plan was to wait until right after you posted something, catch you online, and send you to the blog where we made gifts for everyone, including you. A bunch of us were going to do it at once, catch you and drag you to the tree to see what was under it.
Well at any rate, it went like this:
From ourselves and to each other,
to Mayo and SS,
we've brought our gifts to one place
and the tree is this address....
This will surely get lost in the mix of comments, so I suppose we can try again.
Hope to hear from you before the holiday. If not, then it will still be up afterwards. ^_^
Hey, and I can probably post from work, too! Nice. ^_^
It's the last day before Xmas, that's cool. Hope everyone has a lovely day.
Sdock, hang in there girl.
I'm glad that I can be heard sometimes. That's the thing with me, lack of confidence makes me unsure most of the time.
Mayo, I dont think your post was for us, but I'm glad your still keeping us updated.
I hope you are well, as always.
All my love.
"My devoted hands work tirelessly to articulate a minstrel's vow. The commission of such an act gives me a unique sense of purpose, and helps stave off the return of my old internal debate."
I imagine Mayo pouring out his heart and soul onto a page in lyrical form.
hello mayo
your latest sounds positive. i hope so anyway.
hi guys sorry i've not been around as i've been ill in bed like proper crappy ill but feeling better today.
pissed off cos can't get my gift links to work FFS!!! makes me mad.
off now xmas shopping,spending money i don't have!
love to all.
SS has left christmas wishes on his page.
thank you SS.if you are lurking go up to the link by Kapunua @ 7.24am there are gifts for you.
Good morning Mayonaise.
This blog truly was unexpected. I have no clue what to say. I can't think of anything. I honestly feel disconnected in some way from everyone. Whispers are sometimes louder than anything else in the world. Just listen. Have love; hope; and faith. Seriously; I have nothing of usefulness to say. Maybe later? Doubtful. But, 'tis the season, I hope that you follow your heart this year.
All my love;
- 007
<3
Hey Blog Angel!!!
I hope you have a great day!!
Hugs and Kisses!
Princess
Wow.
It's so quiet in here it's creepy.
Goodmorning everyone!
Can I get an 'Amen' for Friday?! Fuck yes, it is Friday!!
I want to thank all of you again for the presents. I peeked at all of them. They are so awesome. I really like the Mayo Mansion. We should all move in together. I think it would be such a blast.
(Siobhan, you are good - that U2 song is one of my favs. Amyranth, I love my new office - it is just what I needed.)
Mayo, Thank you for sharing this post with us. I wish you all the best. Make sure you check out all your presents at Kapunua's.
Lol @ me, thinking about this post at work and waiting for a break where I could type out my clumsy thoughts again. Posting from crackberry which is odd. Can't see the comment screen so it's hard to remember what I just wrote. Stream of consciousness.
Anyway Mayo, you know I don't put much stock in this idea of faith and love solving things.
An d I know I said that I felt this post was more private and maybe you don't want our insight, but you know, I have to try anyway. LOL, me with the big mouth.
Anyway Mayo, think about the things you are relying on. Are they just words and ideas? These things are easy platitudes, they may quell your fearN your anger or whatever while you are reading them, but how much can it really help? "Have faith. Hang in there. It will be fine." Maybe it's just that I like to complicate things but in my experience often those things arena't even true. Pesssimist or realist!
? Not my call.
Something real. You talk about listening to these people; your angry ghost, your reasonable, calm one. I am glad you hear them, but
Maybe words aren't enough. Maybe you need to act.
And by "act," Mayo, I don't mean running around in circles afraid to stop. You mentioned that once. That you were afraid to stop and find failure. You mention it here again.
Mayo,
"And even though the words have passed/the message is still clear."
Sometimes, when this happens, it's not always good. Sometimes people say hurtful things, mean things, to you-untruthful things.
But, it never stops ringing in your head. Something happens and it draws you right back to the time it was first said, and you're forced to relive it all once again.
I hope what he said was something constructive and heartwarming.
"My devoted hands work tirelessly to articulate a minstrel's vow. The commission of such an act gives me a unique sense of purpose, and helps stave off the return of my old internal debate."
I'm about to show my ignorance, but the only minstrel I've ever heard of were traveling musicians, some of whom made themselves up to look like African Americans, sang racial songs and danced.
We are talking about something else, yes?
But, I see hope. Your hands are devoted, the outcome will give you a "unique sense of purpose," and who the hell doesn't want that? And that old debate? Whatever it is, you're keeping it at bay.
"I am afraid to stop, my mind fraught with hindsight. Unsure if it will hold, I test the bindings.
Secure."
Knowing that it's secure, don't be afraid to stop. Just stop. Look around. Where are you? Do you like it? No? Move. It will be hard, but look at how far you've come. You have the power WITHIN you to do it.
Just breathe, Mayo.
P.S. I love your P.S. I ride the waves, I think.
Mayo, I wish that you could find it. You know, that moment when you stop, facce what you consider "failure" and just deal with it. Don't you think that if you keep running, you'll run aground? And you will never knownd you will never know what you missed, how you sold yourself short.
I guess I could take my own advice but still.
Maybe the actoin you should take is to stop moving for once and take a close look, not hindsight, but now.
You've spoken in. The past of finding completion in convention, peace in complacency. I wish you could see how awesome it is not to rely on those things, to just BE and not worry about convention. What other people think for once. Screw convention Mayo, screw complacency. God your fear makes me want to rattle your teeth.
Maybe it won't be okay until you face this Lfailure" you're so scared of and let it go, you know? I think you can do that wihtout revisiting the RESULT of your old internal debate.
I presume a lot and I'm sorry for that, maybe I'm way the hell off. And like I said maybe you don't even want our input and again, I'm sorry to intrude. But you know, sometimes I can't stfu.
Sorry for speaking in tides, Mayo. It's who I am. A tsunami.
Lol Mustard, thay were forced to eat Robin's minstreks.
At this very moment, between the sun, the cold, my earl grey tea and all of the beautiful females present here, I have temporarily fallen into heaven.
However, Oscar, I must have a word with you. But I'm going to take a moment to compose myself. I am wobbling in that rare area between brutal joy and exquisite agony, and I have not yet found the words to translate why.
A moment, please.
Hey Mustard and K!
Finally, I don't feel so lonely in here.
Princess doesn't like to be lonely.
No one to see my fabulous new S//C hoodie!!! ^_^
Hi princass!
Okay holy crap one more thing.
I thought some more andd now I have to add this.
Mayo because you are so mysterious I confess I have projected an entire life onto you. It's that conjecture from which I write and answer you, a
Even. If you're not even looking for an answer.
If I'm right, you'll know. But I could be way the hell off because I don't even know who you are.
Just remember that I realize that.
SS, if you happen to float through here, pla
Please go to our tree linked above, for your prezzies! We love you, me ole' beauty.
OMG. CLEARLY I MEANT PRINCESS!!
Sure you did, K. Sure you did.
PrincASS.
It is funny. ^_^
Hi all,
Pulling hair out here, running in circles armed with late gifts.
Could someone please tell me how to link text/clicky thing. I've forgotten how O_o
Thank you!
I'll catch up with you all later.
Hi ya Mayo.
Bye all.
*wonders why it is so quiet O_O*
PP, you are an elusive little creature. Always running around here and there!
I honestly have no idea how.
I was a lot of help wasn't I?
SS,
Where you at today? It's so quiet in here. You gots to go check out your goodies!!!
See, I swear, everything I try to say ends up sounding dirty.
I guess it's better than telling you to go check out my goodies. @_@
Morning all. I think I'm back from the dead. At least I feel a little better. Shitty thing is that I just know the rest of the family is gonna get this flu. Just in time for Christmas, how lovely.
Princess I sent you an e-mail (at least I think I did)
Way too much medication at this point.
Morning Mayo and SS if either of you is around.
Mayo I'm picturing today’s sweater a nice dark blue with a snowman. Damn it's really cute.
SS I'm having trouble picturing you in a sweater. Not sure why I'm just not feeling it. Let's see I nice red hoodie. That's pretty festive. It looks very nice.
Have a great day everyone.
Dear Oscar,
There is something hiding right behind this post that has me by the cravat and has throttled me.
I cannot know, but I can wish. I am so tired, ma petit chauche.
So tired. I don't even have the will anymore to beg you to release me, especially because we all know I hold the key under my tongue and at any point in this stage of the game I could have unlocked the iron that binds me.
Enough of this serious banter. One last thing. Have you ever seen the films of Dario Argento? I have a feeling you would enjoy them.
Eyes heavy, lips heavier still.
I love all of you! Be good to each other.
Hi Elena!
I can see SS in a red hoodie.
Definitely. With a big grin on his face. Can't you?
Did you get the email I sent you?
Oops, nevermind! I know you did. ^_^
S&V I did get your e-mail Thank You
As for SS in the red hoodie. Of course he's wearing a big smile. That goes without saying. Heck forget the hoodie. He can just wear the smile.
Crap, while that's a great visual when added to all the medicine in my system I'm not gonna get any work done today.
Hi PP, Gentle V., Princess, Kapunua, and Elena!
Elena, Mayo looks really cute in his blue snowman sweater. I bet he's backing cookies too. ;)
Princess, 'goodies' are fun.
SS, I miss you. I don't think you were around yesterday, but I hope you can swing by today. Please check out your presents. They are really awesome. My gifts are on my profile. I hope you enjoy.
Elena, I think that is a much better idea. Just a big ass grin and nekkedness.
Hey Anima!
Goodies are fun.
But it depends on who the 'goodies' belong to. O_O
SS snd nothing but a grin........
*princess is staring at the computer screen, lost in deep thought*
Anima I'm not so sure about Mayo baking cookies. I think something shiny might distract him and they would burn.
S&V - Great visual about SS isn't it?
OH YEAH!!!!!
S&V20said,I honestly have no idea how
Thanks anyway Princess.
Your tiara looks nice today.
Is it new?
Hi Gentle V, Elena, Kapunua, Anima.
Hope you're feeling a bit better today elena.
Bye all.
*dashes off again*
SS I'm sorry I've caused us to view you in a totally uh different light.
Oh what the hell. I like the visual. Hope you don't mind.
Merry Christmas to me!
Hello PP Goodbye PP.
Yes, it is! It was a gift from Siobhan. THANK YOU SIOBHAN!
Fantabulous!
Good morning, everyone.
As usual, I'm late to the party.
As usual, I don't have any of my gifts wrapped on time.
And as usual, I'm about two steps away from falling down dead on the floor. Believe it or not, I'm too tired to joke, so bear with me as the serious Midnite rears her aching head.
Mayo, your latest post really does come across as a journal entry. It has the same flavor as quite a few of my little ramblings.
I've really grown to admire your tenacity, and yes - even your stubbornness. But honestly, my friend -- the day will come when you've grown too weary to *not* stop. And please, take it from another one of us 'lovelies' who's been there: It may be much less painful than you think. If you ever do decide to give it a try, don't look for failure. Bypass it, and head straight towards peace.
Remember, you can't appreciate the first snowfall unless you take the time to stop and catch a few flakes on your tongue.
/ nice
We now return you to your regularly scheduled inanity. ^_^
Hey Sis!
Lol Mayo I realized something else. You're afraid to stop moving and I am afraaid to move too much. I guess we could take a page out of each other's book huh?
Well, I am hiding in the bathroom to type this because reception is good, but mostly cause the crackberry is beginning to annoy my co workers and I have been accused of being anti social since I got it.
:D
Do me a favor Mayo. Give me the honor of hearing me and meeting me halfway.

Hey Sis, beautifully said. :D
Wow lemme post tht twice like a total dick!
Hey Sis, beautifully said. :D
Interesting interview with Eliza on her BN page. Chris asks her how it felt to be dumped.
Hey Sis and Kapunua. Hope you both are well today.
Sorry, stepped away for a bit.
Elena, Merry Christmas to me too!
Princess and I along with someone named Yoda had a lot of fun perving over Frank yesterday. Holy shit, it was getting hot in DM.
SS, do you mind that we are using you as a visual? I would ask Frank about yesterday, but I don't know him, so I can't ask. :( So I guess he doesn't get a choice. SS does though. SS, are nekked and grinning. I hope!
Hey Sis M!
Yep, I sure hope SS doesn't get embarrassed easily.
Oh and Elena, you are probably right about Mayo baking cookies. But it was a cute visual. Little Mayo all dressed up in his sweater, all giddy and shit baking cookies. I love it.
Make'em sugar cookies, Mayo.
With sprinkles.
^_^
Yummy, sugar cookies with sprinkles.
Is everyone off watching the interview?
I don't want to watch it.
I can't pull up BN at work.
They have it blocked.
It's probably better that way Princess.
So where is everyone today? Well, besides us two who share the same name.
Just got some good news. The office might close down early. Fuck YES!!!!!
Christmas break, here I come!
I don't know. It's weird. I guess with it being Christmas and all, most people are probably busy.
I should be working. >_<
Anima...Good for you!!!!
Me too. And if I get off early, I should probably try to find a gift for my husband. I really hate shopping. Despise it. I should have thought of it earlier so I could have ordered it online.
Thanks Elena. I'm pretty excited about it.
I miss Sdock. Just sayin'.
She misses everybody, too. :(
I know she does. We need to find her a new job for Christmas. Or PPU needs to come through and take Sdock around the world.
Wouldn't that be nice?
I wish she could.
.
.
.
I'm gonna go smoke. Don't everyone miss me too much. ;)
anima I'm already missing you!
Smoke how is sdock? I'm kinda worried about her.
She's sad but she's alright.
I just want to wish all of you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year 2008 *hugs*
I´ll fly home tomorrow early in the morning and I´m not sure if I can go online at home, seems as if the dslbox is broken...
I´ll be bacl after the holidays.
take care and I´ll see you in january *hugs*
Merry Christmas Pixie!
Awww, thanks Elena. That was sweet of you to say.
Pixie, take care of yourself. We will miss you!
Have a safe trip Pixie and Happy Holidays!
Has anyone seen Bikey lately? Don't know why I just thought of him, but I did.
Mayo:
I must be the only one who doesn't see this post as a journal.
I'm glad you've heard and taken some of our thoughts/advice to heart. It sounds as though it has helped and you have re-discovered/re-claimed a certain truth that you only thought you had lost.
Your minstrel's vow... I understand this one all to well, my friend. Don't look at it as a job, as "I have to get this done and it must be great". Don't force it, just let it flow naturally, let it come find you.
You do have a unique purpose in this life. It hasn't been a fluke. Please believe that.
Why else do you think we would all be here?
The unicorn will now become angry and bitter since Sdock is no longer around.
No, PPU. You can't.
You forgot that I'm here and I'll whip your little purple ass.
Be sweet, okay?
Don't force it, just let it flow naturally, let it come find you.
Mya, I think that was perfect advice.
PPU, it will be okay. We will help you get through this.
Mya, is that a picture of you and your daughter? You two are beautiful!
PPU don't be like that. We miss her too.
Still do not know what time we are shutting down. I am all done with my work, I'm READY!
anima start walking towards the door very slowly.....
PPU, you can't be angry & bitter.
You didn't like it when I was, so it's hypocritical if you do the same thing. She'll be back, I promise you.
Know how hard this is for her, okay?
Anima, I missed you like mad!! Who else am I going to perv out with? ^_~
((I used to have pierced nips, too. We should talk sometime... ever heard of a triangle? ;D ))
SISTER MIDNITE!!!
Yay!
It's so quiet in here today. The only sound is PPU galloping and snorting around.
Elena, I'm getting really close to doing that. Think they'll notice?
Sis M, I miss you too!
I'm intrigued. What is a triangle?
Oh and I see you said you 'used' to have them. Sometimes I feel too old to have them, but I have had them for 11 years now. They are a part of me and I think they look pretty. Still got the nose and the septum too. The septum only comes out on rare occations. It has a retainer in there saving the hole. I do have to flip it out to blow my nose though. Kinda funny. I lost my tongue barbell, but that's okay. I feel silly with it sometimes too.
Guess, I'm all by myself again. I'm such a loser.
Princess only has pierced ears.
I always wanted my belly button but now that my son is almost eight, meh.......maybe not.
It's never too late to do the belly.
I was a freak about piercings. I almost got kicked out of the house when I got the eyebrow done. My dad was furious. I try not to have my nose stud in when he is around. It upsets him too much.
I wonder why Frank took out all his stuff. I loved it. He should have at least kept the nose. I love boys that have their nose pierced. The lip is pretty hot too. My husband stopped wearing his earrings and it kind of upset me. I loved them. I am a loser. ;)
Anima, baby, I'm here for you! ^_^
Triangle (you may want to save this link for when you're at home!)
I had my nips done for the first time back in '97, and again in 2003. They migrated badly both times, because they didn't size the jewelry correctly. Neither rings nor barbells worked. I miss them, and might eventually get tI think they're very pretty!
I also have a double-pierced nose, which I've had for 16 years. I don't think age really matters, if the piercing suits a person. I'm 36, and I still have mine! ^_^
Princess, belly jewelry is HAWT. You can get all sorts of really cool rings to wear. Unless you live in midi-T's, LHM might never even know.
That's the second time in 10 minutes you have called yourself a loser, Anima. Do it enough and you'll start to believe it.
Does that mean if I call myself Princess long enough, I might actually believe I am one?
Wait, I already do.......
O_O
Talk about Frank, you must. Yoda will delight in the tales.
Play with his lip ring with my tongue, I would.

Post twice, I will.
Ya think, Sis?
Really, I rarely ever show my belly button, so I figured there was no point.
LHM watched me get a henna tattoo one time and I thought he was going to have a damn heart attack. He kept screaming "Don't hurt my Mama!" He was only about 3 at the time.
YAY! Yoda loves Frank's lip ring!
Don't make me fuckin' bring out the Biblical quotes.
Because you better believe I will.
Anima, you're NOT a loser in any way, shape or form!!! >:( Don't say things like that about my friend!
I love guys with piercings, too.
Especially lip rings. *yum*
But moderation is good, you know?
The guy in that Pepsi commercial was a bit much for me, and I'm as liberal as the next guy. A few are great, 20 is... wow! O_o
Maybe PPU believed they were a unicorn for long enough that it really happened...
Awww, God. Can't we talk about the lip ring?
Wait a minute.
Nevermind.
Even God makes mistakes :)
Thanks for the heads-up on the link. I think I will wait until I get home.
Sorry to hear you had so many problems with the nip piercings. I have really small gauges in mine. I think they are like a 20 gauge or something. I love double piercings in the nose. I've always wanted to do it, but I will have to wait until I get out of this job.
And yes there are some really cute jewelry for the bellies. Mine closed up. I miss it.
Anon - thanks for looking out for me. You are sweet.
Princess, his lips are perfect. I just wanted to suck that ring of his.
*imagines sucking on Frank's lip. Yum. (Sorry Jamia, sorry hubby sometimes I just can't help it).
YAY! God, do you like the lip ring, too?
Frank Tongue
Wants me to examine his lip and nose rings up close, he does.
I sometimes liked the nose ring, but not always the lip ring.
The guages?
Yes.
Good afternoon, guys.
Only stopping for a moment, I have been trying to get e-mails out, gifts created, ready to go shopping, and not losing my mind all at the same time.
Can't be done. I think I will stop with the trying not to lose my mind part...
Anyway, J. and I will be back on later tonight, if we are not swallowed by wrapping paper.
Love to you all,
L.
Princess, but you are a princess!
Awww, OP'S! You guys are missing our discussion of Frank's piercings!!!
HURRY BACK!
Did I see God? Hi God!
And Yoda is here. Hi Yoda!
Hi anima, S&V20, God, Yoda, Sis Midnite!
MMMMM. Lip ring.... MMMMM
Yoda, thank you for the lovely picture! That has officially started my Christmas vacation from work!
You talking about these gauges, God? Frank asks.
Frank upclose
Mayo,
Very nice post. Sometimes what you need is right in front or right beside you. Listen more to your heart as well, honey.
Believe in yourself. Deal with the bad, embrace the good, and just keep the faith.
It can all work out, my friend.
Just believe.
Love you dearly,
L.
Star:
Love Frankie pics and discussions, I do.
God, gauges represent the thickness of the jewelry. Like Frank's ear plugs are probably a zero.
We will try, Princess! Keep the topic, uh, warm for us, will you?
*Wonders what Smoke will come up with to keep him warm...*
Oh, J. says to make a detailed map for her, and she will take that discussion up at a later time this evening. ^_~
Love ya,
L.
Thanks for the pictures Yoda. Yesterday was fun btw. Your comment about the happy trail made me O_0 'Oh I see the light.'
The guage picture?
Frank looks just like his grandpa there!
He's cute as a button, that Frank.
hehehe, Anima.
Yoda,
Frank is like a tranquilizer. Makes me relaxed and happy, he does.
L, something tells me that Yoda has it all mapped out. Yoda care to post the collage of Frank's tattoos. That was lovely.
Hi Star!
Princess, my husband would probably not be too pleased either. But whatever, he has porn mags, I got the rockstars. I say we are even.
Mustard, where'd you come from all of a sudden?
Hmmmmm, interesting.......
Oh and thank you Sis M for telling me I'm not a loser. I don't think I'm a loser, but I am a huge dork. And that is true.
Mustard? Where did you go?
See my O face, Frank will.
Already seen his, I have.
O O
And you guys can knock me if you want I won't mind, but Gerard gets me pretty hot. Fucking gorgeous. Too bad he doesn't have lip piercing for me to suck on. ;)
-Anima is so going to hell.
My husband has a celebrity crush, so it's cool with him. He adores Allison Hannigan from American Pie, and that tv show How I Met Your Mother.
Although I doubt he would be mesmerized like a zombie by a picture of her sticking out her tongue.
Not that I'm still staring at the Frank picture or anything!
