icu4u2: Oh, hey, Blog. How are you?
Blog: “Oh, hey?” Is that all you have to say?
icu4u2: What’s wrong? You sound mad.
Blog: What’s wrong? You disappear for weeks, and then you show up all friendly, “Oh, hey,” like I’m not supposed to notice or anything?
icu4u2: Okay – what is going on?
Blog: I can’t believe you could treat me like this. I thought you were better than that.
icu4u2: I have no idea what you’re talking about.
Blog: It’s that job, isn’t it? You’ve been working at that job.
icu4u2: I never lied to you about the job. I told you I was busy working at my job.
Blog: But you used to work AND write me. So what happened? All of a sudden you’re in love with the job, and I’m out like last week’s loser on Project Runway?
icu4u2: You know I care about you. That hasn’t changed.
Blog: But you’re in love with that job, right?
icu4u2: Don’t compare yourself. It’s totally different. I don’t love the job more than you, it’s just …
Blog: What? The job is all rewarding and stuff, and I’m just a little amusement? I have feelings, you know.
icu4u2: Blog, come on. Stop it. Yes, it’s true, I have been spending a lot of time with the job lately. I needed to commit. It’s just something I had to do. But that doesn’t mean I don’t still like you.
Blog: Whatever.
icu4u2: You each give me different things. The job is deeper.
Blog: Thanks a lot. I can be deeper, you know. You’ve never tried to be deeper with me.
icu4u2: I don’t want you to be deeper. I like you the way you are. You’re fun. You’re … easy.
Blog: Great. That’s what every blog wants to hear. “You’re easy.” I’m so glad I’m here for you to have your little fun with.
icu4u2: Look, I’m sorry. I know I haven’t been around as much lately, and that was wrong of me. But this is something I really have to do right now.
Blog: But I can help you. You need me, you know. You think you’re just going to make money with the job and ride off into the sunset? What about a platform, huh? What about publicity? What about an audience. I can give you all those things.
icu4u2: I know. I know. And I want those things – I really do. But right now, I can’t think about that. I just have to work!
Blog: So work with me! You used to love writing to me! You wrote me every day! We had fun. Don’t tell me you didn’t feel it, because I know you did.
icu4u2: I did. I still do. Why are you making me choose? I want both of you. Lots of people have both.
Blog: But you have to give me something – a little attention, a post here and there. I’m not a saint, you know. I have needs too!
icu4u2: I’m sorry. I am. I know I’ve been neglecting you. But I do need you. I do want you there with me.
Blog: Words are easy. You of all people should know that.
icu4u2: I just … I need a little space right now. I just need to make money at work. It’s going really well, and I don’t want to lose momentum.
Blog: Look. You do whatever you have to. I’m not going to hang around waiting for your scraps, is all I’m saying.
icu4u2: I understand. I’m going to try to make it work. I really am.
Blog: I don’t want empty promises. I want posts. That’s all I’ve wanted from you. It doesn’t have to be every day. Once a month is fine.
icu4u2: Really? You’re willing to do that?
Blog: Of course. I’m with you in this. I’m part of this. I want what’s best for you. Once a month. That’s all I’m asking. Can you do that?
icu4u2: Yes. I can. I promise. I’ll change. You’ll see!
Blog: All right. Good. I feel better now.
icu4u2: I’m glad. I’ve missed you, you know?
Blog: Don’t try to butter me up now. Go – make money at work. But remember – once a month.
icu4u2: Thanks, blog. I won’t let you down.
Blog: And chocolate works, too. Just so you know.

truthfully..... hummingbird has always been a bit stand off-ish..... it's no secret around the garden that she does not socialize with the butterflies or chatty trees or zippy bees or the endlessly squawking squirrels...... she doesn't even stop for a sip from the lap of the still sitting buddha fountain, which puzzles even me. but recently i think I've noticed the slightest pause in the flurry of her flutter and something approaching a glance in my direction.
It's nice to be noticed....

Hey...Hi....
Someone recently taught me the proper way to use a bamboo steamer...and now every meal that I make at home is made using the thing.
I mostly have been steaming veggies like broccoli, carrots, string beans.....and plain ole white fish like cod or sole. I have also not eaten any red meat since new years day....so I am starting to slowly lose a lil of my chubby-ness...
But I was hoping you guys would send me any tips or recipes for the steamer.
For the fish I have only been adding garlic and lemon, salt and pepper....there has to be better stuff out there ?
I did make chicken hot dogs the other day....and I reheated a tamale from christmas.
cmon...toss me a few tips...please...

Dream Vacation (Conclusion)

My body involuntarily shivers….as if someone is dragging a nail across a chalk board….this always happens whenever I come full circle with something I’ve seen… lived… and then remembered…...it’s the tell-tale proof.
One of the rules I’ve given myself regarding my “sight” is to not deny the truth to someone that has proven that they know about me.
You have bound my hands and feet I tell her….forgive me…. she replies….but I had to utilize hired thugs to find you and bring you here… Why am I here? I brought you here so that you could help me to use “the sight”.
Ever since that fateful day that we bought the lottery ticket as you suggested….I vowed to help as many people as possible…the way you helped us. When I had learned that they had located you….I made all the special arrangements before having them bring you here.
What special arrangements ?
Shhhh….let’s not get ahead of ourselves…she says.
Unfortunately…”the sight” is not something that I can just give away like some shiny bauble wrapped in a bow….I tell her.
It is in my bloodline passed down from generation to generation….I inherited it by birth….it is a family trait….and I notice that she is smiling at me….as if she is hiding a secret ..that is about to be revealed.
She stands up from the chair that she has been straddling… and this time I don’t avert my eyes….and I am rewarded with a view of a dainty….see thru…silk vision….of nirvana….
She goes to the door….opens it and speaks softly to someone just out of my range.
She returns to me with a long elegantly handled knife adorned in what appears to be large ruby gemstones and ornate golden designs.
It’s true she says…your blood is very different than most others….as she places the knife on the chair next to me…..wait..I protest to her loudly... you can’t be serious...
she touches two beautifully manicured fingers to her perfectly pouty lips….she feigns a kiss and plants the fingers on my forehead…
You have what I want….what I need…ICu4u2 ….and you will give it to me and my followers so that we can begin the cycle of a new breed of “those with the sight”. And when the cycle is complete we will go out among the masses and help all that we can.
With that…she claps her hands…two sharp claps…and then in thru the door enter seven of the most stunning females I have ever in my whole life encountered….they are each wearing a fine shimmery silk robe…each a different color…and it appears ….as the fabric shifts and flows as they walk…nothing else beneath the robes.
Unbelievably every race is represented… blondes, brunettes, redheads, and even some that appear mixed.. mulatas, mestizas….they all enter the room in a single file…and each steps before me…and each one in turn… almost imperceptibly bows and nods before eventually forming a circle…. with me in the center.
Again she claps….two claps…and all around me I see the robes falling to the ground….
she abruptly grabs the knife…I catch my breath….and swiftly and skillfully she cuts the tape from my hands and feet…
She leans towards me once again to coo softly in my ear….you are to impregnate each and every one of us here….over the course of the next few days ….. your bloodline… trait… gift of “the sight” shall be passed thru us to our offspring…and thus begins the new cycle…
But…I protest weakly without much conviction….I have clients…and schedules…and employee commitments….
Don’t worry she says…I told your secretary….that you are on vacation.
(THE END)

I pour the” lil blue one” into the palm of my hand…I set the medicine bottle down and reach for the special pill cutter that I found at the pharmacy the last time I was refilling my subscription.
I slice the pill cleanly in half….reposition it in the device…and cut the halves into two pieces. I pour all but one of the pieces back into the bottle.
I can faintly hear you sequestered behind the closed door of the bathroom….doing whatever you do …to get ready for the physical tryst we are about to share….I hear the water running and can picture you washing your face and brushing your teeth….I hear the splashing water over the toilet and the unmistakable flutter that the paper roll makes when pulled on.
I reach for the chilled water bottle and toss the piece of the “lil blue one” down my throat and chase it with a long swallow.
I strip down to just my tee-shirt…. and then reach over to pull the sheets and main cover back on the bed…exposing the pillows with their colorful flamingo design.
The lights are dimmed save for the faint glow of the electronic candles that dance and flicker with an eerily hypnotic dance of shadow and light much like the real thing minus the smoke .
The bath room door opens and briefly the light from within illuminates a small portion of the room until you flick the light off….
The first thing I notice as my eyes re-adjust to the dark….is the satin like fabric of your teddy….your delicate pink matching two piece immediately captures every nerve in my body….some nerves respond more than the others.
You cross to the bed….my senses tingle as you…………….

I'm trying something different this post (posting multiple pics in the same blog) Let me know if it works or not.
The first pic shows me on Friday  ....
I quit my job of 5 years...I have another, better one lined up starting Monday...anyways I went to the Marina before lunch...just to chill out a bit and contemplate my choice.(Yes I look like that)
the second pic shows me on Saturday at the local Farmer's market picking some fresh grown grapes....the stall vendor told me that they were the last for the season from Northern California...and they were amazing!!...like lil bites of nirvana.
in the third pic...I bought a new car on December 30 and it takes two guys at the carwash to get it looking spotless....
The next pic shows me at the gas station.
the last pic shows me on Sunday watering the shrubs.....and having a snack at the same time...
I have no idea how this blog is gonna look...but I gave it a shot anyways.
