30 Day Writing Challenge: Day 6 - 5 Ways to Win My Heart

Day 6 - 5 Ways to Win My Heart.

This would be easy if my heart could be won.  Not so easy.  I could be glib and say:

Do things my way.
Do as I say.
Do what I want.
It's about me, me, me.
SEX.

But that's just insane and not true.  I wouldn't want to be in love or be loved by a Stepford Wife.

Here are my basic 5:

1. Intelligence - You need to be intelligent.  I don't want someone to be a brainiac but
you can't be a complete idiot.  I need to be able to have a conversation with you.  Share ideas.  Agree and disagree.  Of course, if you throw your intelligence in my face, I'll cheat on you with your best friend and throw that into your face.

2. Passion - You need to be passionate.  About me, about something.  I don't need a wallflower in my life.  Hopefully, you like the same things as I do.  This brings us to...

3. Common Ground - We need to have something in common.  Be it TV, Books, Movies, Museums, etc.  The more we have in common; the more you can capture my fascination and my desire to stick around you.

4. No Gifts - What impresses me is not a lady who wants to buy me things.  I don't need things.  I can get my own things.  What I can't get is a hug, a cuddle or a kiss without YOU.  That's all the gift I need.

5. Independence - Respect my need to be independent as I would respect any of your needs.  I don't need a Mommy, a babysitter or a clingy soul sucking succubus.  Be a friend, confidant and lover.

Of course, none of the above would matter if you look like this.  I just ain't gonna happen.

How The New Mexican Government And Prison System Failed Its People

Anyone who knows me knows I like mystery and crime stories, especially true crime. So, I am a huge fan and viewer of the Investigation Discovery network. I view many programs and have my favorites. One show I recently stumbled upon was "Surviving Evil" hosted by the stunning actress, Charisma Carpenter , who herself a crime survivor. She and two friends suffered at the hands of a violent serial rapist and police officer Henry Hubbard, Jr. on San Diego's Torrey Pines State Beach in 1991. I don't want to go on about her, her surviving her attack or even the ID program, which airs Thursdays at 9 pm and re-airs throughout the week and is available On Demand. Well, actually, I do want to speak about one episode from the current season (the 3rd season), but not the show as much as how the law failed to truly punish the perpetrator of this crime. The show titled "Escaping The Arroyo" interviews the one surviving victim and tells the horrific story about two whi...

My First Blog

Unless I'm already mentally or emotionally stirred up I find it difficult to start anything.  Be it a rant, a conversation or a writing.  I'm sure if I don't get bored or disillusioned I will have something interesting or controversial to say.  I might even drop an occasional F bomb.   As this is my first outing, I will insert many random thoughts that clearly will lack continuity or proper linkage.  I will sound like a mental patient or someone suffering from Alzheimer's.  For instance, tomorrow is my birthday.  I turn 55.  Who cares, right?  Why are we so self-absorbed with ourselves?  I know from my POV I want to rule the world, be famous and shag any girl I desire.  I also know, as I'm sure you do too, that that's just not going to happen...ever.  But without these little dreams/daydreams I'd find it more difficult to crawl out of bed most mornings.   Random thought #2:  How do people quote lines by fa...

Beer

I know most of you or at least some of you are really feeling cooped up and are going crazy not being able to leave the house and go to your usual haunts: The Malls, The Bars, The Restaurants, etc. I know how you feel. I miss, well, none of that. I don't have any favorite places that I frequent more than home. I am a firm believer that one should never drink at home and certainly never alone. That's just plain too sad. But I'd like to virtual drink with you today. A subject that has always fascinated me is beer. Many years ago, about 20 - 25 years to be more precise, I was became a hobbyist of zymology. I was a novice zymologist. What is a zymologist? A brewmaster. A brewer. Someone who makes beer. I thought it would be fun. It was, but it was so damn expensive and a lot of work. There are many places you can purchase kits and equipment. The local beer store may carry kits. Even your supermarket may have something like this. The places that you really want to seek ou...
