Why I Hate Your Boyfriend
On the surface, he’s a decent person, I guess. I don’t really believe that for a second.  A decent person would not treat you the way he does.  Disrespect me, sure.  But he doesn’t respect you.  Or any woman.  I don’t think he’d hurt you physically.  There are so many better ways to hurt a person that don’t even leave a mark. He drains you financially.  And...

I Hate Your Ex
I was holding him standing over the sink, his hair tied back roughly, and I put my hand on his back. “How you doing?” I asked. “Debbie?” “Yeah, no.” “Miranda?” “There ya go.” I have never met Debbie, nor even seen a picture of her.  And I hate her.  Maybe I hate her because he loved her once.  Maybe I hate her because part of me is...

What did I do to Deserve you?
It’s weird.  My first few boyfriends were practice, I guess, but what I learned from them was that good actors make bad partners, artists are happy to be losers, and martial artists, while physically fit, are boring.  So, you have to kiss a lot of frogs before you find your prince, right? I had all but given up on finding anyone worth spending a moment of my time on.  I went on a few dates,...

Science Question
Having called out from a get-together, I was preparing for bed when the phone rings...
Blake: Hey, Stray. What's up?
Me: Hey! Nothing. How are you?
Blake: Not too bad. I got a science question for you.
Me: Okay....
Blake: How do you spell "pussy"?
Me: ...B-L-A-K-E. Why?
Blake, to the others in the room: Hey, she spells it B-L-A-K-E.
Others: That's awesome!
Blake: So, other than the fact that you're a loser, why aren't you coming?
Once I extorted chocolate out of the young man, I did end up going, and we saw Trick 'R Treat, which was not a scary movie, but is a truly awesome Halloween flick which keeps you guessing and never lets you get away with assumptions.

Indecent Proposal
Guy with no teeth: Hey, you got any water?
Me: No. But the McDonald's down the way might.
Guy: There's a McDonald's?
Me: Yeah. It's over there,
Later...
Guy with no teeth and no water: Hey, how long you worked here?
Me: About two weeks.
Guy with no teeth: Are you married?
Me: No, sir.
Guy with no teeth: You want to be?
Me: No, thank you.
There it is. I was proposed to by a total stranger who makes more in the unemployment line than I make in a year. And he has no teeth.

The Lion and the Tigress
I had started this long blog set to the tune of The End Complete III:  The End Complete by Coheed and Cambria about my days in the museum I used to work in and I intend to post it later. However, I wanted to write a little on these confusing feelings I have in another aspect of my life entirely…my long-forgotten love life. A month or so ago I went to a hot-tub (hot is stretching it, as it...

Call Me Stray
I wanted my first blog to be something meaningful, but an introduction seems important too.  Call me Stray.  Not because I get lost no matter where I’m going, although I do, but because I have been wandering for many years now.  What do I mean by wandering?  I mean that I have expanded my horizons, nothing more.  I will try anything once, usually out of the optimism that it might be good. ...
