I don't know anyone who isn't looking forward to the new year. No one is saying things like "I don't want 2022 to end!". It's like that weird classmate who loved high school and never wanted it to end. The years feel like they are getting longer and it feels like so much happens in … Continue reading A New Year and a New World

Our Place in the Alphabet
So many of us want to chat with others like us. We want FRIENDS. We want someone to talk to, we want someone to understand us, we want someone to hit the mall with. I get it. I mean, that need to connect with others like myself was a huge part of starting the MN … Continue reading Our Place in the Alphabet

My Favorite Things
My little website can get a little introspective and intense at times and sometimes I forget that is a site that celebrates femineity. So! As a bit of a break from the recent heavier stuff, let's talk about the things I love about my femme side. This is going to be pretty superficial and shallow, … Continue reading My Favorite Things
So This is Christmas
Christmas always puts me into a myriad of emotions and thoughts. Memories of celebrations from decades past, a reflection on how many things have changed or have not changed enough, the familiar but possibly uncomfortable dynamics that are unearthed by seeing certain family members. No matter how you're feeling at any given moment during the … Continue reading So This is Christmas
Dig If You Will This Scripture
This is going to sound a little odd and probably a little blasphemous but here we go. It is not unusual for a public figure, whether it is a musician or a billionaire to have fans. For the most part, liking a celebrity or whomever is pretty harmless but then are times it gets completely … Continue reading Dig If You Will This Scripture
Taking Care
As many of you know, I am a huge advocate when it comes to seeking help from professionals. Want to learn makeup? Schedule a lesson with a makeup artist. Need to know your cup and band size? Get a bra fitting. Asking for help in ANYTHING isn't easy as it usually requires us to move … Continue reading Taking Care
How to Win Friends and Dominate People
I am fascinated by dominatrixes. Wait, what's the plural term for more than one dominatrix? Is there one?? I don't think it's dominatrixes and spellcheck doesn't think so either. *Edit!* Thank you to Vivienne who taught us that the plural term is “dominatrices”, which comes from the way of pluralizing words ending in X: appendix, … Continue reading How to Win Friends and Dominate People
Window Shopping
Sometimes it feels like I spent half of my childhood in a mall. I have three siblings and there was always a reason to go to the mall whether it was because someone needed new clothes for school or because it was free entertainment for us. We usually didn't have "fun money" but my brother … Continue reading Window Shopping
Life is What You Make of it
"Life is what you make of it, so beautiful or so what" -Paul Simon My wife said I was pretty good at judging people. She didn't mean being judgmental (although I can be pretty bitchy), she was referring to having a good read on someone and what kind of person they are. I thought about … Continue reading Life is What You Make of it
