Category: About Me

  • It’s already past noon, and AJ’s been working hard and writing in between spare moments. And I’m being lazy cause AJ’s so busy. I really don’t want to drop my posting streak cause there is no inspiration. At least not inspiration we can share with you.

  • Mixed Messages

    AJ is working on Camp NaNoWriMo at the moment – writing my introduction story. The how it all begins type thing. AJ’s on target for the writing goal of 75K – though this past weekend was a bust writing.

  • My Beliefs

    What do I believe in? Honestly things are quite believable. I believe in monsters and magic, but I don’t believe there is a god or some higher being. The world is a lot stranger than most people think.

  • Define Love

    Define love? I know what I want it to be – unconditional, irreplaceable and unmoveable. But love is hardly that. People throw it around and don’t mean it. I love you. I love this painting. I love pizza. Love.

  • My Dreams

    This could be taken one of two ways and since I’m bored, I’ll do both. What are my ‘dreams’ as in my aspirations? I aspire to be fair. Not kind, or just but fair. I don’t expect someone to treat me good because I deserve it. I expect a person to treat me how I…

  • He Had Wings

    When I first saw this prompt I was like – oh great another flying metaphor. I went searching for a background image and I found this one. So what started out as a fear has turned into food! I love food!

  • Strapped

    This only brings to mind one thing. And I’ve already detailed in Trapped.

  • Of mice and men…

    The title comes from the quote above a poem about a mouse and how man has destroyed her home. Yet the man still feels sorry for himself after knowing what the mouse is going through.

  • Rose

    My mother had a rose bush outside our house in Colorado. Thankfully the smell of a roses doesn’t mother me, or remind me of my mother. It reminds me of my Nanny. A woman who took care of me for five years while my mother hunted.

  • Shallow

    Shallow? Conceited? Concerned with the superficial? I suppose that fits me to a degree. It’s what I pretend to be. Where looks matter. Where I’m the center of attention and don’t really care about anyone else.

  • What a hunk

    I like men. If ya ain’t figured that one out yet you aren’t paying attention. Now ask me why, and I can’t give you an answer. Ask AJ, the only answer you are going to get is because it made sense. My fictional life isn’t some statement on AJ’s part about equality.

  • Calendar

    I schedule nearly everything. Though I’m not nearly as bad as Sheldon on the Big Bang Theory – I don’t schedule the bathroom. Not that anal about things.

  • Daydreams

    I’ve never been much of a daydreamer. I’m not much of a looking towards the future or wondering what my life would be like if X were to happen to me. Day dreams are great as long as you don’t sit around wishing and you are acting upon those dreams.

  • Trapped

    Trapped in a situation you can’t get out of? It sucks. My first year in the Academy I was trapped in that type of situation. My mentor was abusing me. I will admit this now to a few people – mainly myself but still I admit it now.

  • Favorite Food

    I love food. Granted I’m rather picky about what I eat, but food is a great thing. And I prefer to make my own food. I’ve been cooking since I was about 10 mostly because it was a comfort. Now because it puts me in the right frame of mind.

  • Wild Flowers

    I’ve never been a big flower guy. I don’t see the point in reality. Flowers die unless they are those silk ones you can buy in the store. I’m not big on romance either I guess having never actually dated anyone seriously.

  • Smoking

    I know the title really doesn’t have much to do with the photo prompt today, but the picture was uninspiring to both AJ and I so we asked AJ’s best friend and she said “Spanish vacation! Cuban cigars! somewhere tropical”. Those were the things that sprang to mind

  • Binary

    1 or 0. Yes or No. Black or White. The world isn’t binary there are so many shades of grey between white and black, so many infinitesimal numbers between one and zero.

  • Time

    Time is one of those things that is relative to the person standing in that moment. My time in the Academy felt like forever. My time out in the field, these past ten years has gone by in a flash.

  • Yearly Outings

    Every year as a child and teenager we took a trip upstate New York to the woods and learned how to survive in the wilderness. It was a two week long trip at every level.

  • Blurred Lines

    I am neither Venatori nor Human. I am neither straight nor gay. I knew neither my mother nor my father. I could probably go on, but you get the idea.
