Creativity Self-Care
I have been diving into writing again and into IT as well. My goal is to increase the days that I spend time focused on writing, even if it is just for 20min. When I do manage to create a new work or add to an older work, I feel energized and more at peace. IT work is just plane fun. I am in process of fixing my home desktop. Removing the corrupt OS’s, updating and installing a new dual boot that actually has room to operate both systems. To assist on the writing front I have joined a local writers group, called the Rainbow Writers. As the name implies…

Boxes
We have all heard the term “thinking outside the box”. Well, I want to expand on that. If you look at your individual ideology, your beliefs, that is a box. It is where your limits are set, the place where you are most comfortable. Everyone has their own box. The question I have is, was the box built by nature or nurture? I think perhaps both, but like the individual, there is a variation of the ratio between the two. Some have more box built by society, while other have more built by their nature. There is also some harmony between the two, most times. Where there is an issue…

BBF Birthday
My Best Bear Friend came into town for his annual birthday time share in Tahoe. It was great to see him. So much has changed in our dynamic. Much for the better, some for the not as great. The best part is that we are still best friends after another man has entered his life. We are still best friends with benefits as well. Our relationship has evolved into a more comfortable relationship that is truly more focused on friendship and support of each other. In some ways I miss the hot to trot spontainious sex. We still endulge, but not as encompassing as it was. I know it is…

A Visit from a Friend
So my Bear Friend is visiting. He actually lives a few hours away, so visits are few. When he can, he will come up for a visit and it makes my day. Hanging out doing guy things is rare for me and when we get together, we have a great time. No topic is off limits and we both try to fix the world! LMAO. It’s fun because he is more liberal and I am more conservative, yet, hold on to your socks, we actually get along and respect each other. We both wish the rest of the country could be the same way. Don’t get me wrong, there is…

Growing Into My Self Realization
Alright, so it has been some time since I accepted my self COMPLETELY as a bisexual male, and identified more as a gay Bear for what I have to call my gay side. One disturbing thing that I have run into in this culture of enlightenment in the GBLTQ+++ community is an unacceptance of the bisexual male as a contributing and caring part of the community. It isn’t an overall feeling from all, but it seems to be prevalent in online gay groups and forums. See, the thing is with me, I truly am split. I desire women for women’s sake and men for men’s sake. I really have no…

Dear Diary
WHAT? No this isn’t a diary! Hell, it is marginally a blog. Marginally because I don’t post for long periods of time and I am not after the almighty LIKE, or validation of the masses of the internet. So update, I have been hanging out a lot lately on an LGBTQ+ forum. It has soothed some of my inner demons. I have made many friends and have come to further terms with my sexuality internally. My eventual goal is to come out to my wife and kind of leave it at that. Once out I plan on exploring local Bear and Gay hangouts, though not for sex, though I REALLY…

My Grotto
First posts are sometimes the hardest because what the hell are you supposed to post about? Yes, you have an idea about what you want and you know you have to get it out of your head before it implodes, but when it comes time to write it down, it’s gone. POOF! So, here we are in my new home. My grotto, my Ninja Stealth, super secret home, but not so secret as to not have it out there in the WORLD WIDE WEB. Is it even referred to as the web anymore? It is secret in that I am not out to all, but I am to that point…
