A safe place to talk openly about mental health & illness
This post is about some of the things that give me the heebie-jeebies, ranging from things that scare me to things that are just yucky. Some of these I might realistically come across, while others, not so much. Yucky words We've previously established that moist panties grosses me right out. Damp underwear? Whatever. Moist panties?… Continue reading My Heebie-Jeebies List
These are a few kind of weird and random pics from my travels. In Bangkok, specifically the Patpong district, vaginas are big business. There are lots of bars that have "ping pong shows," in which Thai ladies exercise their vaginas in very remarkable ways. My friend and I wanted to see what the fuss was… Continue reading Some Quirky Travel Pics
Today, we're going to take a mosey around my bedroom, where I spend a lot of my time. This is the sleeping side of the bed. When I was partnered, this was my side of the bed. I've got my old-school alarm clock that I've had for a gazillion years. I like it because red… Continue reading Get to Know Me via My Nightstands
These pictures in this round of critters from my travels come from a few different countries. We start off in Egypt, riding a camel, which isn't particularly comfortable, in case you wouldn't have guessed that already. The picture below is also from Egypt. This creepy taxidermied pelican was among multiple taxidermied critters at the hotel… Continue reading Assorted Critters from My Travels
This post is going to be less interesting than it could be, because I didn't take many food photos when I was travelling. But here are a few odds and ends. Fruitshakes are huge in Thailand (or at least they were back in the day). I'm not a big fruit fan, but their fruitshakes were… Continue reading Food & Drinks from My Travels
This round of travel pics features cats, dogs, and a couple of guinea pigs. Some are strays and some are pets. I was taking a little ferry across Lake Titicaca from the Peru side to the Bolivia side, and a local lady had this adorable little kitten. Lake Titicaca is supposedly the highest navigable lake… Continue reading Critters of My Travels: Cats & Dogs
I noticed that when I was travelling, especially in non-Western countries, people got excited when you played with their kids. Granted, the fact that I was a 20/30-ish Canadian chick probably made me pretty unthreatening. This post shows some of the kidlets I encountered on my travels. I don't actually recall if this was in… Continue reading Get to Know Me Thursday: Kiddos of My Travels
I am easily amused, sometimes in strange ways. Here are a few examples. Cow tipping Derived from public domain, Wikimedia Commons I got sent in this particular direction by Caz of Invisibly Me, who wrote a while back about cow hugging being good for wellbeing. Cow tipping is an urban legend that I first heard… Continue reading Random Things That Amuse Me
I used to like to travel, and part of the fun was the critters. These photos are from a trip I did to Peru. The pics I chose don't represent a broad variety, but I really do love me a llama. These photos are from the Islas Ballestas off the coast of Peru. They have… Continue reading Critters of My Travels: Peru
I used to travel a lot, and one of the things that's fun about travelling is seeing the assorted creature features, both domestic and exotic. These pics are from India. Cows are sacred in Hinduism. That means a few things: 1) no Big Macs at McDonalds, 2) there are random cows wandering around everywhere, and… Continue reading Critters of My Travels: India
