After fifteen years of a fine marriage, it took one horrible, bad year with very traumatic events occur that ended it. We are great friends, and we both decided it was time. That's about it in a nutshell.
"No, THIS is me in a nutshell....HELP! I'M IN A NUTSHELL!" Austin Powers
Eek! You're too kind. I'm sadly lacking in the photo/looks department, and that's okay. My ex has all my photo albums, but they'll be here soon. Maybe I'll drum up a better photo...the scenery is so beautiful I look like a little ant in the corner :)
Imitation crab meat, grilled in butter and salt and then stuffed in a fake crab shell so that she'd think I was a rich as Snoop Dog, or Daddy, or whatever his name is!
I've had several people ask why I would choose such a cruel name as Wolftrap...three today, alone. Let me tell you...we all have our meaning for why we choose our nick, but seriously, I'm no hunter. I could never kill a deer even though I had one in my sights, and I'd certainly never lay a trap for a wolf. I love dogs and have a beautiful blue heeler as my only companion, aside from my aquarium full of exotic fish...
The reason I chose "Wolftrap" is because when I was young, like in the sixth or seventh grade, my best friend's dad used to lay them all around our beautiful mountain property to protect his wildstock. We used to get stoned (yes, way back then, not now!) and then run around and set them off with sticks. We loved seeing the wolves, and there are TONS around here!
Anyhoo, I should probably choose another nik, and rightly so. I'll think about it :)
pencilartist, pardon me for saying so, but your talent is great and you look quite uncannily like the late great Jackson Pollock, my favorite artist in the world. Pollock was a genius!

Well, it certainly depends. If you've never been married, then being single means something other than you you can compare it with. I was married for fifteen years to the same woman, and I've been divorced for two years. Now, being alone with my dog is HEAVEN, and I can choose the person with whom I'd like to spend time. However, it just doesn't mean anything to anyone who hasn't been there, done that. I'd say GO FOR IT, and find out for yourself.
I don't know much about any of them...I only know we loved Bruce Lee's movies in jr. high school LOL
What was with his son's death? I know that something fishy was up while he was filming his first film...but I was never sure why someone shot him - didn't someone put real bullets in a gun that was supposed to have fake bullets?
Poor dude!
But I love Bruce Lee's films...man, how would it be to be able to fight like that?
Did you know that in his prime, Chuck Norris sparred with Bruce Lee? I read it in an interview, but it was a long time ago, and I think that out of respect Chuck held back his best....
Not at all, my good man, I'm sure you're as tough as nails. Carry on! I was just wondering, because your pic was nearly a duplicate for the film's initial call.
Yes, the sense of hopelessness you feel is what I feel many times. You want to share, enjoy, cuddle, everything in between...but no one is there at the moment this inclination occurs. I imagine it would be especially strong for tomboys, because you are used to the value of company, regardless of physical attritribute.
I feel that too. On the one hand, I know it's not hopeless, but on the second hidden hand I FEEL that it is. So, dealing with it is a struggle against what I feel and what I believe.
That struggle is good. After all, you're here, aren't you? You've received replies from well-mannered, understanding people, right? Hang in there. You seriously, no matter how cliche it sounds, have absolutely no idea where you'll be five years from now, and it may be so good that you will forget you ever posted this
You are not alone. You feel it too. I think everyone does...only those who are honest with themselves will recognize what it is. Others will rationalize it in a million different ways. But you sense it, you feel it. Guess who is telling you this?
I once went whale-watching in the San Juan Islands (never did see a whale), but I ate a raw oyster at a restaurant. After I ate it, I saw a live black worm squirming in the shell, and that whole night I puked everything up includiong my will to live.
Stay cool all!
