My heart is a vacuum
and in it a prickly pear.
It is nothing that I swallowed,
it was you who put it there.
In absence of sunlight
it grows and bares flesh
while spines follow limbs
to a fine found filament
of sugar frosted fingers
for my grip almost spent.
It purges heat and a punch
then I swallow it back,
that prickly pear
perhaps, I did put it there.
p.s. it really wasn't as grand as I thought it would be.

I know we have heavy and light conversations going on right now, but it was just a thought.
Sockfucker.
Ergo,
Definitely. These soldiers always need to be remembered. Everyday.
SS & The Black Eyed Peas.
Niiiiice.
^_^
Goodnight, Bella. :)
Glad we could be here at the same time!
Where the hell did Solly come from?
Sockfucker.
O_O
Sweet dreams, Bella!
...oh, and thanks anon @5.25 for your suggestion. That's a great idea! :D
Bye!!!
thank you!
Hello Solly, Smoke, Mustard, Kapunua, Anon!
I can't believe it's going to be May! Where did this year go. Time moves faster as I get older.
weather update
It's almost black as night outside right now and the thunder is getting closer. Oh it's only 4:38 in the afternoon here. The air is heavy, this is so not good. Okay that's all. Just thought you might want to know.
Oh my goodness, Elena! Go hide!
O_O
Hey there, Star!
Hey Star! Hey Sdock and Your Filthy Mouth! ;)
I give you full permission to laugh, but I just burst out laughing because I realized that May Day has a double meanings kinda.
You know, May Day, like a distress call, or if we throw this thing in May, it will be on a day that's in May, so, like, May Day.
Yeah, it was an "You had to be there" kind of moment.
Elena,
Seriously, how do you deal? I know it happens all the time there, but still.
I think about how I get all nutty and grab a flashlight when we have a thunderstorm here, but it's nothing compared to what you get.
Scary!
Mustard,
I thought of Grace Jones who played May Day, the villainess in the James Bond movie, A VIew To A Kill.
goodnight bella sweet dreams
about anzac day all the towns and cities all over have services, parades etc, the schools have things today and the kids can march in their uniforms tomorrow as schools, a lot of the kids wear their relatives war medals, we have a cenotaph in the middle of town our town
the road is actually the main coastal highway and they close it for the parade and service
(and my hairdresser is just to the left opposite the red car)
ELENA!!
get Jake and tie him up or get him somewhere safe. Is everyone home? Get a flashlight and all ready and batten down the hatches. I will be worried about you!!
So, it's kind of like Veteran's Day here, I guess?
yes it is Mustard :)
oh don't worry about me. I've lived here most of my life. I'm use to it. I am at the store though so that's a bit different. Lots of glass and nowhere to go if a tornado comes. Heck, I'm worried about my car. Hope there isn't hail.
Elena, I'm so sorry. I haven't said hello to you! I hope there's no damage to your belongings!
can you move your car under cover somewhere? A gas station or shopping center?
Just keep away from the windows, are there any warnings?
they look pretty scary
(ok I watch storm chasers too much)
Damn, I missed SS. What the hell? *waves to SS if you are still lurking* ♥
Kapunua, sorry I missed your reply...I wish you all the best!
Elena, be careful!!
Hi Princess, Mustard, Ergo, Bella, Solly, and Star (hope I didn't miss anyone!)
I won't be around tonight. :(
I've been crazy busy at work and every evening I've been doing yard work. I'm freakin' exhausted. One more day of yardwork and then I should be done for awhile.
♥ to all of you.
Ergo there isn't anywhere near here for me to put my car so out in the middle of the parking lot it sits. Right now it's just a severe thurnderstorm warning. Well no duh. I love when we get those while the storm is going on outside.
Oh hey, Mustard.
Hi, Anima!
And I guess Bye if you aren't going to be around later! :(
Text from TJ
"I miss the guys. Going home feels like a detour."
hey anima
hope your yard is looking good after doing all the work!
I don't mind thunderstorms, as long as I feel safe (ie not driving) hope it isn't too bad.
my hubby had a car he'd done up himself (308, etc new paintwork etc he dragged it a couple of times, pretty awesome car)parked outside the house and a storm was coming and I said it looked like hail (greeny) and he said "we don't get hail here". Well we rarely get hail here...and he couldn't find the keys so it had to sit outside the whole storm, in the hail and after you know where the keys were?
in the centre console in the car, where he always used to leave them!!!
It wasn't damaged thank goodness!
oh poor TJ! lol
could you text to her that I hope she has a good trip and miss her!
please
Elena,
It's got to where t-storms are getting worse and worse down here. We used to never have like really bad storms but now it's just the norm.
When it does rain. O_O
If it's not storming then we are in the middle of a drought.
Will do, Ergo.
I'm gonna send it right now.
Smoke
I know what you mean. Come July it will be drought season. LOL
Right now it's pouring. I'd like to go home but I don't want to go out in it.
Weather is so weird.
But, I find it really funny that that's the first thing you start talking about when you meet up with someone. It tickles me. :)
Elena,
Is TJ on her way back home? I thought she was going to hit another one.
thank you elena!
:)
I must be off gym and I have to go to town for a while
I'll be back later
thanks again SS!
see you again soonish!
I'll see you guys later on.
Elena, be safe.
Ergo, have fun at the gym!
Sdock, you take forever to feed your dogs. Just sayin'. ;)
SS, thank you for continuing to stick with all of us.
Mayo, I hope you're holding - it's always a delicate, delicate situation. No one told me I needed to be a gymnast and have acute balance.
good places to hold the next family event
Ergoproxy
Amyranth
Farawaysoclose
Kassi
Pixie
Bleeding Chaos
Pickled Possum

Elena
MissTot

yep another weather update
the tornado sirens are going off at home. I'm about 12 miles from there. Well crap!!!!
Oh I seem to be all alone and during a storm no less.....
Okay then, I'll just talk to myself.
So self, think we should try to go home now?
Not really.
Well I don't want to be here all alone and the weather is just getting worse.
So you should stay put.
Yeah, but when do I ever do what I should do?
Good point.
Okay I'm heading home. Talk to you all later. But not you self. I don't like you.
Have a safe journey home, Elena.
Drive carefully.
hello everybody.

Elena, glad you got home ok. Storms scare the shit out of me, especially since my roof blew off! 0_0
SS, I would love love love it if you would post that song on your blog. Sometimes I just visit your home and click on your links just to hear your music collection. I know you don't mind, or you wouldn't leave the door open for us. Which reminds me, your biscuit barrell is empty, you need to stock up on the chocolate hobnobs, it looks like someone has eaten them all *burp*
Thank you, for everything. :D
hello smok
So I gotcho some cold & flu medication instead.
Hi, Lucy! :)
RW!
I thought of you today. I was looking at this website called Ophelia's fancy. The knickers are amazing!

Hi Lucy! Hi Star!
♥♥♥
Oh and SS,
If you are like Lurky McLurkerson somewheres or Sneaky Sneakerson or something, just wanted to tell you that I lost a kitten today. Terrible, I know. I had it for like a half hour and BAM, gone. My sister questioned my pet-parenting skillz and was like, 'How in the hell do you lose a tiny blind kitten?' and I was like STFU.
So, she said that if it came back I should name it after you.
Why?
Cuz just like you have been known to do, that kitten was like 'POOF, here I am' and then just as quick it was like 'POOF, I'm gone!'
So, just thought you should know that there is a kitten around here somewheres in the woods that is named after you. ^_^
I bet you thought that was gonna be some interesting shit didn't you? Hahahaha!
You've got a dirty ducky, Fimmy!
She is a bad influence RW. A bad influence. Bad.
rw, oh i like the first black one and the pink one too. you have to have the figure though dont ya, shame lol
Whatchoo talking about, Fimmy?
VERY bad, Lucy!
Hi guys! Terry and Al are playing some stupid computer game so I have been abandoned. Glad you made it home safe Elena, I was reading through the comments biting my nails!
hush your words lucy, you dont know what you are talkign about
*sits with her halo over her head*
smok, you lost a kitten,OMG i bet rw has it in her shower.
S&V, they didn't know the price!
The lady wot knows is in tomorrow. I shall harass her good and proper-like til she hands it over ;)
Hey Lucy and Fim!
RW, I need to have their entire rainbow collection of frilly knickers. Just sayin'.
Smoke,
Maybe the kitten's mother came and got him.
hello carrie, count down is amoungst us. are you excited?
rw, wouldnt you like to know
RW,
Do you have my kitten?
Okay, I don't like where this conversation is going. O_O
Yeah, I'm pretty sure the mama kitty came back and got it. She needs to feed it, damnit! It was tiny and hungry!
>_<
Poor little SS Kitty Cat.
count down?
rw, wouldnt you like to know
0_0
RW,
Do you have my kitten?
???
*is totally lost*
Poor little SS Kitty Cat.
That was funny when I read it.
Bwahaha! Likr a little lost tug boat.
Is somebody's kitty missing??
*is worried*
Hullo, Carrie :)
birthday, carrie. remember, a big day to celebrate and get drunk.
Mayo,
Are you glad the phantom kitty wasn't named after you or are you sad that phatom kitty was not named after you?
I'm guessing glad.
I had a kitty but lost a kitty today, RW.
It was wild.
RW,
Smoke lost a newborn, blind, defenseless, little kitty cat. How is that possible?
Hey Star!
I think the mother came back for her kitten, Smok.
I bet Mayo would like to have a phantom kitty named after him.
Awww, snap. Maybe there's a brother somewhere to it. Another little phantom kitty.
If so, it's all Mayo. ^_^
I bought a pair of these frilly knickers when i was in London, Fim.
But when I got back home I realized I'd bought the wrong size (they were too big) so I gave them away :(
RW,
Smoke lost a newborn, blind, defenseless, little kitty cat. How is that possible?
I don't know!!
*is very worried*
Where did she find it? How did she lose it??
If I ever get a kitty, I'm naming him Phantom Kitty.
wow rw, you look nice in your photo ;) i like the nickers. you should of ebay'ed them
if i ever get a kitty i will call it 'boris' or 'harold'
i am a doggie person though.
Oh yeah, my birthday. I was feeling frumpy about that today.
If I ever get a kitty I shall call him Mr Bendy.
wow rw, you look nice in your photo ;)
Ahahaha. You're silly!
i like the nickers. you should of ebay'ed them
I guess I could've done that. But I gave them to a friend here who loves that kind of stuffs & has a more bodacious booty than me.
mr bendy?
carrie, why?
Fim,
I had a Pomeranian named Boris!
hello solly
After a character in a Terry Pratchett book, Fim.
*throws rolled up bits of paper at fim to knock her halo off*
*whistles innocently*
they were very pretty panties RW. Can you buy those online?
My Dad is on the phone telling me a horrible Hilary Clinton joke.
oh star, what d they look like? are they the dogs with the orange brown hair?
i find it funny to just call out boris, whilst walking the dog on a field. makes me chuckle
carrie, share :)
beany, you know you will fail. go back to 'tooting'
TOOT TOOT
You can buy them here, anon.
Fim, just feeling sorry for myself, have a case of what my Mom used to call the "can't help its."
you should carrie. you should welcome it and celebrate it. just because another year older, another year wiser. heck just get wasted and tanked up and be merry with your family. thats what i try and do but i try and do it when it is not my birthday :)
A man gets deserted on an island with a sheep and a dog. They would sit on the beach and watch the sun go down. After a certain time, the man started getting "urges." He put his arm around the sheep, and the dog bared his teeth and growled at him. Then about a week later, Hilary washed up on shore. The man said hey, this is gonna work out great. That night, as the all sat watching the sunset, he said, Hilary, can you please take that dog for a walk down the beach?
Ouch, Carrie!!
I take it your dad's not a Hillary fan ;)
Yes, Fim. Boris was more sandy brown/beige, though.
lol carrie, i actually got it. lol
Thank you RW.
They come in different colors too!
And I like the black lacy stay up stockings too. I have already bought a few pairs here, but the lace on those look prettier.
Okay, I'll be back in a bit, errbody.
^_^
star, we get quite a few in the shop. they are very cute and friendly and they are cut beautifully
Yeah, RW, definitely not a fan. I think if she wins you will see him up your way soon. :)
They've got some nice things, anon. I've looked into buying a few things from them online. If I remember correctly though their postage is a little pricy, so if you're going to order from there get a few things to make it worth your while.
goodnight guys,
have a lovely evening.
xxx
You said something's to me that
I have had trouble forgetting about
But there ain't no sense in holdin
Grudges forever thats the simple way out
We may not be so close now
Stayin enemies I wont allow
And the only way that I know how
To let go is to tell you
I forgive you
I forgive you
I forgive you
I forgive you, you, you, you
la de dee da la da
ohh - ohh
No sense, no sense in holdin grudges
Let it go
Anon, I like to order my stockings and tights from here.
I've ordered from them a few times, and I've never been disappointed.
You're off already Fim? Goodnight!
What? Fimmy, are you leaving??
Well, have a good night, missus! :)
Gosh RW, thanks again :)
I just had a look. The thigh high stockings are great!
I have to start making a list. I love pretty lingerie.
Me too, anon.
And you're welcome :)
anon at 8:15
Yeah ain't that the truth. Life is too short. Wasting time holding a grude is just stupid and very sad.
Shower time.
Be back in a bit...
Hubby wants to make fruity blender drinks and watch mindless reality tv so I must take my leave for now. Have fun guys!
Have a good night, Carrie :)
Why does Kapu think that ANYONE is going to go to her blog and post gifts??? TAKE THAT SHIT DOWN NOW!
anon behave
We're all playing nice here. Don't start shit!
SHE starts shit and her "porchie" friends. You know this, why do you continue to eat it? Seriously are you going to partake in the "Mayday" blog if its at Kapu's blog seriously? That is so wrong!!!!
Elena,
Glad you're home!
Hey again, dudes and dudesses.
Phantom Kitteh for the win?
Hmmm Mustard said that the Valentines day gift blog didn't go over well with Mayo. That is true. Did any of ytou ever stop to think maybe it was because it is at Kapu's blog? Just maybe? Think about it! If you want Mayo and SS to see it (remember SS never acknowleged it either) then you have to post it somewhere else, it is that simple. Too many people hate her and are uncomfortable with her and her "porchie" friends. Mayo and SS knows this.

anon stop with the "divide and conquer" tactics. We are all one group here. Not inside / outside people.
Anon at 8:58, is there anyone here that you actually like, because you sure seem to HATE a lot of the family at Mayo's?
Yes, I like the INNOCENT parties on this blog. Not the blatent liars. How can you like a liar? How can you accept that? It is just not right.

"The weak can never forgive. Forgiveness is the attribute of the strong." - Mahatma Gandhi
By saying that the porchies need to be forgiven, is admitting that they actually did what the OPs said they did. Just come out and say it and this can end!!! ALl we want is an apology and we will forgive them!

9:22, I am really interesed in why you personally feel so hurt by this one particular incident that happened so long ago. Everyone but you seems to have moved on in a healthy way by either forgiving or just forgetting and getting on with life. Why are you really holding on to this?
By saying that the porchies need to be forgiven, is admitting that they actually did what the OPs said they did. Just come out and say it and this can end!!! ALl we want is an apology and we will forgive them!
Umm, yeah. I don't require forgiveness because, like I've said a billion times, I had nothing to do with it. And more? I don't honestly care about it. Should never have been brought into it. But now that we were, are you ever going to let it die?
That's pretty much the end of it.
Tonight in Kung Fu we did staff and sword outside until the tree frogs started singing and the bats came out. Seriously. Oh my god, it was beautiful.
Ooooh, sharp like a sword. ^_^
forgiveness is a gift, by demanding an apology you sort of undermine the whole concept of forgiving someone.
Was your sword sharp, and did it go through the ceiling?
Hey again, RW and various Anonymouses. :)
Any fucking way you slice it....
Actually what I wanna say is, You are keen my lord, you are keen.
But as Smoke pointed out to me, that looks rather like "you are peen" and that's totally not the point.*
*LOLPUN
Ooo, damn.
Great minds and all that shit. ;)
Yes, an icepick to poke out a certain eyeball. I'll take that as a yes, Mayo. Let me know what it's gonna cost me.
OOO! There are people's here now :)
Hi Mustard, K, Solly, S&V :D
Are you fine tuning, Mayo? Adjusting the picture?
RW,
Smoke is busy petting her phantom kitty.
If they gave the apology freely it would be better!
I always fall flat.
Take it how you'd like.
RW, what's up?! Got your toesies painted?
Things that are sharp:
knife
wit
pointed sticks
Hey RW!
Solly,
I am not petting Phantom Kitty.
:(
And sometimes my notes, but anyhoo!
cheese
...just sayin
Is the kitty still missing??
*wails*
Mayo!
I bet a toothpick would work.
It's a very creepy eyeball but it's small.
^_X
That's what it'll look like.
Words
...just saying
pencils
Are we playing game shows again? ;D
Sometimes hangnails are.
Kitty is still missing. BOOOO!!!
Poor Phantom Kitty.
Pins & needles.
tacks
I know this 'cause I poke myself every day with 'em.
Not on purpose, mind.
tongues
spin, spin, sugar
Um, what 'bout paper?
You know, papercuts and stuff.

No painted toesies yet, Mustard. I think I'll probably just wait til the weekend to do that.
Ooo! Good one, tongues anon!

Are we getting close, Mayo?
We are getting close...
Nice one, K!
To the next page!
You people are sharp. Cuz you say everything one second before I can say it.

Smells?
Gosh, there's not a lot of sharp things, is there?
