He doesn’t listen is probably something we all say about someone else. It’s not that they disobey exactly. They just don’t listen. And yes, I’m talking about the boys. Well the youngest to be precise. Drake is three. He’s testing his boundaries. Which means he’s playing with fire – quite literally and it scares everyone…

Hey I know a quote… There is no crying in baseball. Actually I’m pulling that from AJ’s memory I’ve never seen A League of Their Own. AJ has though. In other words – you get no sympathy from me. This is really how I feel the world is. No sympathy for the lost soul that…

Describe your favorite toy or game when you were five years old. When I was five my favorite toy was Mushu the dragon from Mulan. I was in a dragon phase. My nanny was a dragon. I was going to be a dragon for Halloween. It never incidentally happened, and it was the last Halloween…

Write about how you fit the stereotype of people from your country… or about how you don’t fit it at all. I guess this falls along the same line as the whole New York City Resident thing. I’m American by birth. I don’t really follow the whole patriotic thing since as Venatori we saw ourselves…

There are finite amount of times I can pretend to be happy. My dreams aren’t exactly a place I can hide in. And having a boyfriend who can walk into my dreams anytime he wants makes things difficult. Dev saved me from my nightmares. He earned the right to come and go in my head…

The last thing running through my mind when I left the Venatori had been what was I going to do with the rest of my life. I hadn’t anticipated the ramifications of my well being. There was no consideration to anything other than the fact that I couldn’t be what they wanted or needed me…

To elevate my moods, Sage and Dee decided I needed to go clubbing. I refused to go. And neither of them were strong enough to drag me out the door physically. And by the time Dev got home, he was too tired to want to go so he was more than happy to stay home.…

AJ redid the dreamscape in Affinity Photo instead of Photoshop. We are much happier with it. I think AJ is gonna do a close up of the tree a little later. But AJ also purchased Affinity Designer and I think wants to try playing with some vector graphics.

I know you are all used to my happy-go-lucky self. And I’ll apologize right now while AJ plans the next book and is writing all the in between stuff, we are working on my mood and my feelings for the time between that. So I’m going to ooze depression and attitude. So please don’t be…

My new reality hasn’t really sunk in yet. I just left behind my whole world. Everything I knew. Everything I was – gone in a moment. My father just left. He and Dorian stopped by bringing me the remainder of my belongings. Which was a lot more than we had realized the Venatori were willing…

The end of the Children of Morpheus is nigh. On the 17th, the last post to the story will come to light and you’ll see a change in things around here. I’m going to make an effort to shed some light into how I’m feeling at that time. Things might take on a different feel…

I forgot to post a new post yesterday. I still have my streak going cause of a story, but I forgot to post a new one. I got one today. AJ had a really busy day yesterday between birthday parties and grocery shopping. It was an all day affair. We did watch my favorite movie…

We went into the room. I didn’t even ask Sage how he’d done what he did. I wouldn’t have understood anyway. There was a large lump in the bed hands and feet were strapped to the sides. It looked like torture. The figure was sleeping but you could see him struggling against his bonds. Dev…

lyrics Such a sweet love. It kinda reminds me of Dev and a few other things AJ’s working on. Not so casual a love. I’d actually heard this one before. It’s on AJ’s list of songs she place regularly. Sadly it’s a saturday and I really don’t have much influence on the day so I’m…
-

I’m not posting the lyrics to this one. I don’t have any references to how school dances work but when AJ was a kid this one played at every dance and it was years upon years since it came out then. I will admit to liking the song. Actually the 60s and 70s ROCK music…
-

lyrics The lyrics and the video had absolutely NOTHING to do with one another. It’s like the background music to some scene in a movie. I’ll be honest though, this was the second song. The first one was a rap song about having sex with a girl who you didn’t care who she had sex…
-

The lyrics for the song. OMG the video is so 80’s. I don’t know if it’s an 80s song or not. I don’t know it and AJ doesn’t know it. The lyrics actually kinda hit home with how The Children of Morpheus ended. Which I realize I can’t talk about yet. But it’s a big…
-

These lyricshave an extra verse repeated that wasn’t in the video so there is one thing. AJ’s plotting out the next story. I’m a little scared. Like the video says, anything could happen. And fuck if it doesn’t happen in this book I’d be surprised. The basic plot is laid down in here’s things that…

Alright, AJ’s been playing the song to death. Thanks Dev! My fault but still. The song has been on repeat all afternoon, and now that I said something AJ’s taking it off since it was only meant to be on while writing during lunch. It makes me happy. And then it makes me sad. AJ…

The land down under! The land where everything wants to kill you. AJ’s had a few friends from down under over the years. I have one myself, AJ’s always wondering how they celebrate Christmas. Like what their imagery is. We have Santa pulling a sleigh with reindeer and snow and snowmen. But it’s like hot…
