Hump Day Poll: Who Is Lookin' at Yours

Let's talk hoo-ha's.  Vaginas.  Bearded clam.  Etc.  (Or prostates, teabags, twig and berries.) My first gynecologist was a dude.  An old dude.  My mom's gynie because obviously when I went to her telling her some cad (the Mr) and I were thinking of doing the deed, she wanted me on the pill.  I got in within a week which is unheard of these days.  I walked in and waited in my paper gown until the first man to see the secret garden bounded in.   Do you remember Larry "Bud" Melman from early Letterman?  Let me refresh your memory: source Needless to say, after two years of visits with him, I came to the conclusion this man who told me PMS was "in my head" at 18 that I was not going to have someone looking at my parts that did own the same ones.  I switched to a lady doctor with another name and began mouth leaking about how he didn't listen to me so I had to switch to a woman.  She laughed and said "I know exactly what you ...

Hump Day Poll: Inspiration and happiness


Inspiration is all around us.  From articles we read to shows we watch to people fighting the good fight, inspiration to make our lives better in some way seems endless.  In others, it seems like we're also inundated with the idea of it or at least things that hope to inspire us that it can seem like an overload.

How many articles do you see about "living your best life" or "how to finally find happiness?"  They're everywhere.  Even concepts like being "thankful, grateful and blessed" have been packaged, sold and hashtagged so much that they barely have their original meaning anymore without sounding like a sellout when you mention them now.

But are the things they're trying to sell us on to be inspired, really inspiring or is it just one person's idea of inspiration and happiness that has been regurgitated so many times that it's become the baseline for clickbait these days?

So, I'm going to you guys, yes, even you lurkers who never or rarely comment.

What really inspires you and/or makes you happy?

  1. I don't know that I feel inspired necessarily by reading articles that are geared towards that, as much as I just enjoy feel-good stories. I'm not someone who believes in the anthem of "if I can do it, anybody can." Meh, not a true statement. I think for me, more than anything, when I see someone who's truly comfortable in their own skin, living life in the here and now, and not getting too worked up over all the extraneous things in society, I sit back and find that refreshing. That is something I aspire to be, so I always find it interesting when I see people living like that in quiet, unadorned fashion.
