It's here. The very last week of "summer". I feel like it was over in a blink of the eye. I feel that the days, months and now years are going too fast. I feel like I am entering into a new phase of my life...
A handful of months ago I turned 40. I handled it pretty well, if I may say so. I celebrated with my family and friends (somewhat - I think someone slipped me a mickey that night...you know who you are). I barreled into my new coming of age year with balls to the wall. I have to admit, I fell short of all the personal promises to myself. I wanted to accomplish way more than I did. I will say I kept to my word on a number of key issues, but once again let myself and my attempt at continuing it to be a "ME" year flat line.
I am not one of those people who believes in making resolutions, but I have to do something to bounce back. To get out of the funk that has encompassed me for a while now. I am taking the starting of the school year as my key to unlock the bullshit I have allowed into my own head and release it.
I had a good summer, not a great summer, but a pretty good one. I feel that I really need to start reading the
Soul Food on our site, I need inspiration. I need a boost. I need a fresh start.
My friend
Mary Sunshine tells me all the time that it starts with believing it and making it happen. So I say this...I believe. I believe that it's time to snap out of it and MOVE FORWARD. Leave all the crap of what is coming up on the year anniversary behind me. To let go of the issues other people have that for some reason I take on as my own. I need to embrace my immediate future and make it happen...what "it" is, I am excited to reveal within myself.
It's time to pull on the
FISHNETS and let it ride!!! START SOMETHING POSITIVE TODAY. MAKE A DEAL WITH YOURSELF TO MAKE THIS A
YOU YEAR!!! SHAKE IT UP AND LIVE THE LIFE YOU WANT TO LIVE...I am going to give it my all!!

THOUGHTS FOR THE DAY
Crave, a San Francisco design firm, has produced a USB drive that doubles as a personal vibrator. On their website they boast, "In a world where high technology and luxury design seem to touch every corner of our lives, the most intimate experiences should be no exception". MY, MY, if that doesn't make technology personal, I am uncertain that anything will! This puts the vibrator setting on a mobile phone to shame by creating what may just be the most provocative interface between human and machine to be seen, (or in this case felt!). The new USB device is a rechargeable dual motor vibrator that comes in 8GB and 16 GB capacities. The "Duet USB also boasts about it being "sleek, waterproof ("submersible down to 100 feet." Seriously, that's more then shower power!) and available in a range of colors". The world's first thumb drive, designed by Ti Chang, that can truly brag that it is a pleasure to use! The device that can not only be used for personal erotic purposes, but also to store your personal digital files (let your own mind wander here... talk about multipurpose). Currently Crave is seeking investors through the "international funding and ordering platform for product design" website CKIE. The Duet was launched on CKIE on August 17 and has so far raised over $46,000 in backing. Crave says they expect to begin shipping the vibrators in early October. All kinds of thrills and potential to be had by becoming "involved" with Crave and it's new product. With it's pioneering "flash-drive-come-vibrator" (HA!) there is bound to be a buzz and titillation for this marriage of technology and sensuality. This launch begs the question to ponder... Just what demographic will "crave" such a "toy"?!?! Sorry I just couldn't resist that one! Will it be on your Christmas list? Might it be your "Hart's Desire"? Will that make you naughty or nice?
