Creating: My Bliss
This inspired life I create what I love and love what I create. Friends, family, colleagues, and strangers alike compliment me on being prolific. Who knows whether being prolific is what makes me happy, or if being happy is what makes me prolific? Either way, my maker's life is my bliss.

Adrift
The warmth, the gentle probing of his hands against the small of my back, the caress of his fingertips painting swirls and lazy eights along my fluttering legs, slowly evaporates as sunlight arrests my pupils. Dozing, happily, I smell his life in our billowy sheets: toast and coffee splashed with predawn rain clinging to his torso after a ten-mile jaunt topped off with freshly spearminted breath for rounds of musky, hot, so-slow morning sex fluffed in feathery down. I am comforted. Feeling him with me, in me, part of me. Effortless. Careless as the ocean. Deep as slumber. He laughs, drinking me in, kissing my freckled gams, nuzzling my toes, making me delirious about the choices I've made. For him. His whisper warms my ear, "Wake up. Wake up, Love. You're drowning. Wake up!"

I Can Be A Damn Dummy
I'm sitting on my sofa. I go to stand up. Nope. I've stood up a zillion times before. I mean, come on. I've got muscle memory. A lifetime of perfecting the graceful art of lifting my torso. But no. I fall. This is dead weight me. There I go, crashing into the unsuspecting floor.

My So-Called Life Tells Us What It Means That This Is Us
A lot of shows resonate with me, but one series reverberated more profoundly than the rest: My So-Called Life. One instance in particular gets me where I live. It's a simple moment really, when Angela Chase, played by Claire Danes, and Rayanne Graff, played by A. J. Langer, exchange shoes. (Happens during "Pilot," and is highlighted during the opening credits.)
