Recommendation

I'm feeling just a little bit adrift today. Distracted, listless, somewhat pensive. This feeling is probably exacerbated (if not caused) by the fact that I barely got any sleep last night. Every twenty minutes or so, I'd jolt awake in a panic, thinking that I'd missed my alarm and was oversleeping. Needless to say, I'm completely exhausted today.

This morning, I decided to start reading a new blog. It belongs to a girl who calls herself Eden, and I found it through Jefferson's blog. Her name has certainly popped up in his writing more than a handful of times since I've been reading, and the situations he describes between the two of them have frequently turned me on. The stories about their interactions are the ones, maybe more than any others, that cause me to think "Yes, that sounds about right. I think I could enjoy that." I have no idea why I didn't bother to look at her blog to get her side of the story before today. My mistake.

She writes rather candidly about some pretty weighty topics, and I appreciate that kind of openness even if I can't always relate to the subject matter. At certain points in her ongoing story, the similarities between what's in my head and what's on her page are quite obvious (at least to me). There are some fundamental differences too, not the least of which is the fact that she has actually done some of these things whereas I have only fantasized about them. I'm also fairly certain that I wouldn't get off on having somebody rub their feet in my face, but far be it from me to discount something I haven't tried! I digress. Her blog can be found at The Garden.

The candor of her writing has set me to thinking about my own experiences with some heavier issues. As a matter of fact, I wrote a lengthy story about a couple of incidents and how they pertain to my sexual development, but have decided not to post it at this time. While I've got no qualms about sharing, it has a decidedly buzz-kill feel to it, and I'm really going to try to avoid being a downer just because I'm having an off day. I may post it later, when I'm feeling a little brighter and am able to put a slightly more positive spin on it. In the meantime, enjoy the new link.
