Monday’s With the Good Coach

George Hery showing us how it’s done. Vanessa’s about to tackle this technique! I do gymnastics…And by, “I do gymnastics,” I mean that I make an attempt to not look like a complete idiot when giving it my all to do less than half of the things the 5-year-old on the other side of the [...]

Over-mediafication

Over-mediafication: (n) the over-stimulated ramifications of excess social  media. I get over-mediafied a lot, getting on the web and start surfing around looking for interesting blogs and new ideas which is exactly what I find…except it’s too much. Having a tendency to over think and over analyze, I add everything going on in social media [...]

My New Adventure With Sex

Over the last week, I have done some major reminiscing about my college days in Arizona. I both miss those times and don’t; there was a lot of partying and fun but also consequences for me along the way. Also in the last week, I have had the great fortune of meeting a wise new [...]

Call Me “Lucky”

Relief is what I feel this week, relief and excitement for the new. In these past two-and-a-half weeks I experienced connections with others that I didn’t even know were possible. For those of you who aren’t up to date, in the last month I have come to the realization that I am a sex addict [...]

The Writer’s Pages

A few weeks ago I received a gift: Aife read me some of her work from the book she is writing. The first time I listened to it was when I went to her writers’ group (which I am now happy to say I am a member of!). Sweet Jesus, this woman can write! After [...]

Return On Investment

Over the last few weeks I’ve been attending the online Social Media Success Summit 2011 (#SMSS11 for all you Twitter geeks). Each new session has been a great learning opportunity for me. One thing in particular I’ve noticed is how excited I get after each session has finished; I’m ready to conquer the world…TONIGHT! My [...]

Original

This last week, I was reminded of something so simple, yet so absolute: we are all originals. “Why try to be anyone else?” the question was posed. I was listening to a man by the name of Dean Hunt who gave a session for the Social Media Success Summit 2011. Dean had some fabulous words [...]

Unworthy

There is a reason I go to sex addiction recovery meetings. To remind me that even the people who we think are the strongest need our help just as much as we need theirs. I go to remind myself that I am human and so is everybody else. I go because I want to face [...]

Bullshit

Shitty. Fuck it. Same shit, different day. But I’m not talented. My life is so hard. I don’t know how. I don’t have enough time. I don’t have enough money. I have too many responsibilities. I didn’t go to school. I dropped out of school. I’m not smart enough. I can’t. As a wise man [...]
