Do you have the apple wine recipe? Thank you!

Sure thing! I'll do you one better, I'll give you my recipe for ANY KIND of fruit wine.

Please note, this will make approx 5 gallons of rather strong, dry wine. It will be about 15% ABV, and I encourage you to BE CAREFUL when drinking it, as it can be stronger than you expect.

Full instructions Below;

Supplies; (These are reusable items or materials which you use to make the wine).

(2) 5 gallon brewing buckets (or a 6 gallon food grade bucket. Regular 5 gallon ones are too small; you can use practically any kind of food grade container, as long as it's glass, stainless steel, or HMPE/UHMPE plastic). you can TECHNICALLY use 1 brewing bucket and 1 regular 5 gallon, cause of lees and other loss, but ehhh. Make sure the bucket lid has a hole to accept your airlock, and is waterproof otherwise.

(1) large plastic tub or container. I like big HDX totes for this.

(1) siphon (get the 24" one. just do it.)

(1) brewing airlock

(1) StarSan (sanitizer)

(1) hydroemeter and matchjing graduated cylinder (this is to measure the potential strength).

(1) waterproof baking scale

(1) pair of nitrile gloves

(1) 24" long stainless steel mixing spoon (ALUMINUM IS BAD DO NOT USE)

(1) Turkey Baster (New, Clean, Unused. Label it for brewing only)

(1) Large stainless steel, glass, or ceramic bowl

Theory (I promise to be brief here).

Alcohol is made when yeast eats sugar and oxygen, the byproduct is more yeast, carbon dioxide, alcohol, and what are called esters (complex aromatic chemicals). Not all yeast are made equal, and many thrive in specific environments, or make specific byproducts.

Some universal rules;

No Vitamin C, Citric Acid, or Citrus Juices. (Kills the yeast.)

No Juices w/ Preservatives. (You can use from concentrate, as long as there's nothing else in it).

No Artifical, or Non-Sugar Sweeteners (It doesn't work).

Nothing With a High Protein Content (Milk, nuts, etc. It will rot. Don't.)

Nothing with a lot of salt. (Also kills the yeast.)

Between 100-70F, for most yeasts.

Ingredients

5 gallons of fruit juice (any blend, any brand, any kind, follow the universal rules.)

Sugar/Sweeteners (I like dark brown sugar and unsulphured molasses, expect to use 4-6 pounds)

Spices, mixins, whatnot (see below).

Process.

Sanitize; You will need to make a batch of StarSan (read the instructions!) with warm water in your large plastic container. This is your sanitary solution. This will kill unwanted microorganisms. It is 100% food safe. Do NOT rinse or wipe sanitized items, if a sanitized item touches ANYTHING that isn't sanitized, it is no longer sanitized. You will have to sanitize everything except your ingredients, and that includes your hands, repeatedly, any time they touch anything that is not explicitly sanitized. To sanitize something, immerse it it for approx five seconds, and pour/let drip any remaining star san on or in the object. The residual star san is FINE. Don't worry about it.

Must; Pour your fruit juice into your brewing bucket (AFTER SANITIZING THE BUCKET). This will mix all the fruit juices you may use, this is vital. Meanwhile, put your yeast packet (UNOPENED) into your pocket. Trust me.

Measure; Use your turkey baster to fill your graduated cylinder, and hydrometer. Note (WRITE DOWN) the brix, and specific gravity. Use this calculator: https://www.brewersfriend.com/brix-converter/ to get the current potential ABV. Now, work out what ABV you want, by gradually increasing the brix, until it hits a point you'd like. Take those Brix, and plug them into this calculator: https://www.brewersfriend.com/chaptalization-calculator/ to get how many pounds of sugar to add. Measure that amount of sugar by weight, into your bowl. If you are using liquid sweeteners, you will have to work out how much sugar they have, by weight; that can take some math, but there are ways to find it online. Add that sugar/sweetener to the brewing bucket, and mix until dissolved. Take a second measurement, to confirm that the Brix has gotten to the correct levels.

Mixins; add any spices, or mixins you want. I am very partial to a half or whole cup of coldbrew concentrate, 2 ounces of vanilla extract, and a small bit of cinnamon (very small). You can add black tea, cloves, nutmeg, even citrus zest; just follow the universal rules, and if feasible, sanitize the material. If you can't sanitize it, it should be ok, generally, as long as it's visibly clean and free of gunk.

Mix! Add your yeast. You do NOT need to prep your yeast, save for to get it up to body temperature SLOWLY (put it in your pocket while you work). Put your sanitized lid on your brewing bucket/vessel, and shake vigorously. If this is not feasible, or you are not very physically strong, instead vigorously mix the mixture. Your goal is to aerate the mixture, to add oxygen, which the yeast needs for it's initial growth spurt.

Airlock; Add the airlock, write the Brix, and starting date on the bucket or on a small bit of painter's tape, and store in a room with a stable temperature, away from sunlight. 70-90F is ideal for most yeast.

Wait; Check on the airlock, it it's making bloop noises, it's fermenting. When it stops making bloop noises, or they seriously slow down, the fermentation is done. this will take approx 1-2 months, in my experience.

Check; Make your star san again, sanitize your gear. Open your brewing bucket. If you see mold, when you open the brewing bucket, you failed. Try again. If you see brown/crusty stuff on the sides, thats OK; that's Kroysen, it's normal. Use your baster as before, to check the Brix/SPG. It should now read near zero. If so, it's done, if not, maybe add a bit more yeast, close it up and wait a little longer. If there are any off flavors, make a note of them. that's not unusual, and it's NOT impossible to fix. Google the specific flavor smell or whatever, and you'll find suggestions. If it's rotten eggs/feet smell, see next step.

Rack; When it's ready as above step, use your siphon to siphon the wine from it's current bucket, to a second one. Do your best to not disturb the bucket before or during this step, as a lot of dead yeast has settled to the bottom, and we want it to stay there. This second bucket can be a regular, food-grade 5-gallon bucket; since you will be leaving some stuff behind, and fermentation is done. If the wine smells like rotten eggs, you need to "air rack" it, that means, when you siphon it, let the wine pass through a strainer or collander on the way out, or let it fall from a height, so knock out the sulphur dioxide. APPLE WINE WILL ALWAYS NEED TO BE AIR RACKED.

Enjoy! You can bottle it at this point, or do what I do, which is have a bucket with a spigot that I can grab a glass from whenever I feel like it, in a cool dark place in my basement.

For my apple wine,

5 gal apple wine

4 lbs of brown sugar

12oz mollasses

K1V-1116 yeast

And if you do choose to make your own wine, I implore you to share it with others, and also let me know how it goes!

New Pride Month batch just dropped!

Redneck Brewing #16: Sea Dyke Wine! 🌊⛵🦑

OK, the name and timing were coincidental. But, I thought it was funny enough to run with anyway.

Tonight I was bottling up a batch of grocery store juice apple-pear cyser without a lot of leftover fruity sediment, and thought I might as well throw something else in that bottle onto the existing yeast layer.

Simple and cheap won out.

I'd been thinking of trying some more tea wine anyway--this time using jasmine and other green tea, because why not. The other is some cheapo generic green tea that he picked up a while back. It isn't too bad for combining with jasmine or other flavored stuff for iced tea purposes normally. Here, I am again pretty much just making super sweet iced tea and yeasting it up.

Basically the same thinking with the apple juice concentrate: we had it, and why not? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I did consider using honey instead of plain sugar, but keeping it simple and cheaper. It can get a little honey to backsweeten later.

I was going to just call the batch something boring like "jasmine apple", BUT...

It wasn't more Butterfly Brand, after all. 😁

I mixed this up with enough sugar to take it to just under 1.100 SG, for an eventual strength somewhere around 13% ABV.

Will it turn out drinkable? I have no idea. But, it should at least take off pretty fast, going straight in on top of that fairly active yeast. And starting off warm, to boot.

Malt Liquor Showdown! Time for another taste review!

Malt liquor is not beer! Not technically anyway. The flavors can be very similar, but the main differences are the reduced or completely omitted presence of hops, and the higher sugar content compared to beer. They also tend to have higher ABV, though this isn't really the case with Mickey's.

I found the Silver City Brewery's DeLuxe Craft at a big wine and beer shop last week, and it got me thinking about Mickey's. So I found the latter, returned for the former, and did a side-by-side! I had fun with my last written tasting, so why not go again with another slightly obscure beverage...

The Mickey's (Milwaukee, WI) is classic stuff, my grandpa used to drink these when I was very young. That stubby, wide-mouthed green bottle is iconic alongside that wasp mascot. On the nose is quite similar to a typical lager, bready, yeasty, not a strong hop presence. Flavor-wise, it again reads as a lager, but with a slightly syrupy texture. This is one of the only beers I've ever seen that lists corn syrup (specifically NOT high fructose) as an ingredient, as well as a standard nutrition facts label. Anyway, malt forward with a smooth corn roundness on the tongue. Hoppy bitterness only comes in toward the end, has subtle fruity notes, and is quite weak. I assume this is because it uses hop extract rather than the real thing. No real complaints about this, it's nostalgic for me personally, and the sweetness makes it easy to pound. The pictogram on the underside of each cap is fun too, just like classic glass bottle SoBe bottles!

Silver City Brewery's (Bremerton, WA) DeLuxe Craft brings a slightly more refined presentation as well as flavor. Refined in terms of can design, meaning it fits well with the rest of their lineup while standing out with that classic turquoise hot rod color and script lettering. To be honest, Mickey's still wins in this category for me. On the nose, DeLuxe is fruitier than Mickey's, which comparatively has a heady, chronic scent. I could take either, both smells appeal to me. As I drink DeLuxe, I notice it's a fair bit more aggressively carbonated than Mickey's. DeLuxe also brings a longer lasting malt flavor and less corn syrupy-ness. The flaked corn mentioned on the bottom of the box tastes more real, and balanced against the barley. There may be some corn syrup in it though, because it is still softer and smoother than a regular lager. The hop extract (or however they hopped this) leaves the mouth with more fruity aromas than Mickey's, and dryer overall in terms of sweetness. But only JUST so. The higher alcohol content (5.6% vs 7%) opens up these flavors that much more.

I would personally give the win to DeLuxe here, as I prefer the bubbles, less sweetness, and more hoppy combination to Mickey's. This is in no way saying that Mickey's is bad, it rides high on nostalgia, drinkability, and availability. But the refined character just barely beats the bee.

Hello, sorry if you've gotten this question before but do you have any tips for writing a scene in which a character gets drunk? Since I can't drink, I feel that my scenes sound like a teenager wrote them. Are there any behaviors/dialogue quirks to avoid so it doesn't sound inauthentic?

How to Write A Drunk Character (For People Who Can't/Prefer Not To Drink)

Drinking is a social activity that a lot of people love to partake in, and although drinking is often associated with rambunctious behavior now a days, "sharing a drink" with your friends is one of the oldest forms of companionship in history.

Having your characters get drunk together can not only be a spot of humor in an otherwise serious story, but also can be a way to build relationships and bond; after all, when they're drunk there is an element of trust they need to have in the people around them, in order to make sure they'll look out for them/won't do anything bad while they're in an incapacitated state.

However, if you haven't experienced it yourself--for whatever reason--it may be difficult to write how a character acts when they've had a bit too much to drink.

Here are some general tips on how to write a drunk character.

1. How much does it take?

One thing that is a dead giveaway that an author has never drank or gotten drunk is when a character starts to feel the effects of alcohol after one sip. For most people, that doesn't happen.

How fast a character gets drunk depends on a few factors:

Size (height, weight)

If they're used to drinking a lot

The type of drink being consumed

How fast they drink in a short period

If they've eaten recently

A character who is 6'5" and 250lbs who drinks like a horse every night is going to get drunk a lot slower than a 4'11" character who's 100lbs soaking wet and has never touched an alcoholic beverage before.

If someone gets drunk easily, they're called a "lightweight," however, someone can shed their lightweight status with practice (i.e. drinking regularly). The faster they drink, the drunker they'll get, and if they're on an empty stomach, it'll hit them a lot harder.

You also have to be aware of the kind of drink they’re consuming, and the alcohol percentage of each one; the higher the percentage, the faster it’ll get them drunk. Here are some percentages of Alcohol By Volume according to Sunrise House Treatment Center.

Vodka | ABV: 40-95%

Tequila | ABV: 50-51%

Gin | ABV: 36-50%

Rum | ABV: 36-50%

Whiskey | ABV: 36-50%

Fortified Wine | ABV: 16-24%

Unfortified Wine | ABV: 14-16%

Liqueurs | ABV: 15%

Malt Beverage | ABV: 15%

Beer | ABV: 4-8%

As you can see, liquors (which are grain-based alcohols), are some of the heaviest hitters here. They're usually taken as shots (vodka, whiskey, and tequila especially), which is also a reason why they're the main perpetrators of drunkenness; not only are they strong, but they're also taken quickly.

If your character isn't a fan of shots, they can cut their drink with something else to create a mixer, such as lemonade, seltzer, or even water.

Note: The only TRUE way for your character to sober up is with time. Cold showers and other remedies may help the side effects, but the levels in their blood will not wane until it fully goes through their system.

2. How Does It Feel?

There are a few stages to drunkenness that fluctuate throughout the night as your character is drinking.

Stage 1: Sober

Your character has had nothing or only a little to drink. They are still sharp, alert, and acting normally.

Stage 2: Tipsy

Tipsy characters are still alert and can hold conversation, basically sober people but a bit "looser." They may have had a glass of wine/a shot or two and are now starting to feel the effects of the alcohol in their system.

Tipsy is the tip of the iceberg, and here are some characteristics of being tipsy that many people exhibit while they're drinking:

More talkative, conversation comes easier

Cognitive thought processes are slowed

Shorter attention span/easier to space out

Decision-making skills are less refined (more likely to take risks, "voice of reason" is quieter)

Short-term memory is poorer

Walking may come with a some difficulty, as there's a slight head rush and bodily orientation is a little thrown off (kind of like the full-body version of "you're now blinking manually"), but there isn't usually a high risk of falling or stumbling.

Overall, a tipsy person could hold their all in a public setting, albeit with some struggle.

Stage 3: Drunk

Once your characters have teetered off the ledge of "tipsy" and into "drunk," there come some changes to their demeanor. For some, their entire personality changes when they're drunk (which will be discussed later).

On top of this, many people exhibit bodily changes such as:

Drowsiness

Loss of coordination/balance issues

Blurry/tunneled/unfocused vision

Struggle to make proper judgements

Attention deficit, struggling to focus

Struggle to remember things, and not just short-term

Mood swings; many drunk folks are easily excited or saddened, and can be set off at the smallest things.

Needing to pee (A first pee of the night is called "breaking the seal," as once your character breaks the seal, they will have to consistently pee after that)

Stumbling, unable to walk in a straight line.

Drunk characters can still act independently but should be accompanied by friends to make sure they don't do anything stupid. Drunkenness is sometimes described as puppeteering your body from the outside. Things slip and slide through your thoughts, unable to grab a hold and process one, and this can be exacerbated by flashing lights and loud music.

You still think, sure, but it's not cohesive or comprehensive. Your characters' thoughts will be more stimuli-driven than reason/contemplation-driven. This is why a drunk character cannot be trusted to make concrete decisions.

Stage 4: Blackout

If a character is blackout drunk, that means they've really surpassed their limit. Most of the time, blackout drunk people cannot function on their own, and must need assistance from their sober friends or their less-drunk companions.

The reason blackout drunk is called that is primarily because a character will not remember what happened the next day. In the moment they are thinking and talking (albeit in a limited scope), but when they finally sober up they will have no recollection of what they did or said.

Some symptoms of being blackout drunk include:

Confusion. A character may not know where they are or who they're with.

Exhaustion, at a high risk of passing out.

Needing assistance to stand or walk, or walking with severe staggering.

Horrible short and long-term memory

Slurred speech (although you may want to avoid writing out people slurring their words and instead use "s/he slurred" or some other indicator to make sure it's legible)

Vomiting

A blackout drunk character may put themselves in risky situations without knowing it, which is why they should be under supervision to make sure that nothing bad happens.

Stage 5: Hangover

Some people are blessed with no hangovers, but unfortunately the older your characters are, the more likely they are to get them. A hangover can really ruin your character's day-after, especially if they blacked out, although some pain relievers from over the counter should be able to help them out slightly.

Possible symptoms of a hangover from Mayoclinic.org:

Fatigue and weakness

Excessive thirst and dry mouth

Headaches and muscle aches

Nausea, vomiting or stomach pain

Poor or decreased sleep

Increased sensitivity to light and sound

Dizziness or a sense of the room spinning

Shakiness

Decreased ability to concentrate

Mood disturbances, such as depression, anxiety and irritability

Rapid heartbeat

Good luck to your character, because depending on how much they drank, it's gonna be a rough one.

3. How Do They Act?

Many people drink during parties in part to change their personality, especially if they tend to be shy while they're sober. While drunk, your character may have more fun than they would if they hadn't had anything, or may consider "lame" things exciting and interesting.

According to the University of Missouri's study of 374 undergraduates, there are four types of drunk personalities:

1. The Mary Poppins

These people are friendly when sober and remain friendly when they get drunk, perhaps getting even more affectionate and lovey. They won't really stir up any trouble and are usually quite amicable, albeit they have lowered inhibitions and decision-making skills.

2. The Hemingway

These people don't change too much when they're drunk. Their levels of intellect and self-discipline shift less than they do for others. Although they may feel the same effects, they may not outwardly show it as much as others do.

3. The Nutty Professor

These people are introverted when sober and extroverted when drunk. Shy, quiet people transform into the kings and queens of the dance floor or the most sociable partygoers you've ever met. They lose all inhibitions and tend to be loud and outgoing in a way that they most definitely weren't when they were sober.

4. The Mr. Hyde

These drunks are more commonly known as "angry drunks." While they're drunk, these people show significant decreases in agreeableness, intellect, and carefulness when they're under the influence. They're typically less responsible, less intellectual, and more hostile when drunk than when they're sober, and are the most likely to stir up trouble.

Hope this helped, and happy writing!

Gordon's Sicilian Lemon

Distillery: Cameron Bridge Distillery

Name: Sicilian Lemon

ABV: 37.5%

Based: Scotland

Price: £16.50

Description

A Mediterranean twist on an original recipe from Alexander Gordan. Made with the highest quality ingredients and using only natural flavourings, it is perfectly crafted to balance the refreshing taste of Gordon's with the finest, juicy Sicilian lemons.

Review

For me, Gordon's gin is one of those basic gins. Not bad but nothing overly special about it either. It's kind of like a premier inn. I know it seems like a bit of an odd comparison to make, however, what I mean is... no frills but you get what you pay for and it's not particularly bad. Usually, when I pick out a gin, as a collector, I like to go for things you can't just pick up and throw into your basket in your local supermarket. (Having said that, you can actually buy many beautiful gins at your local supermarket these days)

I think what I'm trying to say here is that I've always associated Gordon's with being one of those "grab anywhere" kind of gins, whether it's a posh restaurant or down your local boozer, Gordon's is a gin you'll find on pretty much any shelf in any establishment that sells gin.

Now that's not to say it's horrible... it's really not. As standard gins go, Gordon's is actually ok. Not my favourite but it's certainly not a bad gin.

Recently, Gordon's have started experimenting with some new flavours in their collection, white peach, Mediterranean orange and of course, this Sicilian lemon gin.

I was given a bottle of the Sicilian Lemon gin for my birthday back in July and again for Christmas, and I'll be honest... it was actually very pleasant.

What I will say is you do lose that leading juniper flavour in this in as the lemon is very dominant here. But I guess that's the idea.

As soon as I opened the bottle, the lemon smell really hits you. It smells very pleasant actually. First of all, as with most drinks I haven't tried before, I'll pour a small shot and taste it neat. What I got from this wasn't a sour, citrus taste but quite a sweet lemon taste. I'm not sure what I was expecting (other than the taste of lemon of course) but I wasn't expecting it to be quite as sweet as what it was.

Luckily, I actually have quite a sweet tooth, so that went down quite well to be honest. I had my first proper glass with tonic, plenty of ice and a slice of lemon, and again, it was nice. It would've been nice to have that hint of juniper but for me, the lemon overpowers it a little. I decided to try out a few cocktails with it and one that really worked for me, was a Bee's Knees. Now I know there are a few variations on this cocktail, so here's how I made mine...

What You'll Need:

50ml Gordon's Sicilian Lemon Gin

25ml Lemon Juice

25ml Orange Juice

Squeeze of honey

Lemon rind to garnish

Method:

Chill a coupe glass. To do this quickly, add a few ice cubes to your glass with a little water and let that sit whilst you make your cocktail. In a shaker, add some ice then come behind that with your lemon gin, lemon juice, orange juice and a squeeze of honey. Shake well for around 10 seconds (or until your hands become nice and cold) - Now pour the ice out of the Coupe glass and strain your cocktail into the now chilled glass. Garnish with a lemon rind.

Now, the addition of the orange juice in this cocktail, kind of relaxes those sour citrus notes in the drink however, if you prefer your drink to be sour, replace the orange with lemon juice (so just using 50ml lemon juice instead) however, as I mentioned before, I do prefer my cocktails a little on the sweeter side.

This worked really well for me, you had the sweetness of the lemon gin, the sour from the lemon juice, the refreshing addition of orange and the hint of honey too. This was how the rest of this bottle was drunk really... Bee's Knees cocktails.

I did try it in a Tom Collins as well, which again, wasn't bad at all.

Now I know there are nice lemon gins on the market however, for the price point of this, it's actually pretty good. A little on the sweet side but again, for me, that wasn't a bad thing.

If you're into your flavoured gins, I'd definitely give this a go however, as I mentioned before, there are nicer lemon gins on the market which I'll come to review in time.

Overall, I don't think I'd rush out to grab a bottle but Gordon's is good value for money and this new addition to the family really isn't bad. Worth a try if you enjoy your flavoured gins. In terms of summing this up... you get what you pay for.

Thumbs Up: 3/5

👍👍👍

Oh, remember me?

Oh.

Hey. *insert creepy awkward smile here*

I know. It’s been too long, since I’ve seen your face. I’m tryna be strong but the strength I have is washing away. (I dare you to google the previous 2 sentences to see what musical lyrics they are. Soooo Poetic..... But, no. No, not really. :-* )

How ya been fam? You’re right, that doesn’t work for me. Lettuce try this. Damn. Intros are so fucking hard. Which brings me to what? Shit. Everything is dust.

Hi. It’s me. The midwesternal sensational delight, The Sam? (I def introduced myself to someone like that the other day and got the oddest look). Its so funny how the word THE adds such importance. Like when Becky Lynch decided she was THE Man. Or how about saying someone THE one? It gives the sense of importance and makes it into a big deal. So, maybe throw a THE in front of your name so you can feel empowered, or psychotic. Either/or, its a good thing.

What’s happened in the last month or 2? Well. 1. I don’t need to kiss and tell you the full details, and 2. Why we living in the past? Let’s move on to tell you what I want to tell you.

Just because wine is in the discount bin, you do not need to to buy it. There’s a reason it’s been moved to the bin. Today’s post is brought to you by Chateau Ste Michelle’s Bubbly White wine. It was in the discount bin for 3 dollars, Murican. So, myself, being the balla on a budget and consumer of liquids in the form of wine and beer, purchased this pack of 3, 250mL for 3 dollars. Its 12.5% abv and really disgusting. It’s burns like a bad Shnapps, and shoots shivers through your spine like grape Dimmetap.

Now we know why I stick to delightful Keystone. Watery flavored happiness. ( @Keystone still hasn’t sponsored my beautiful blog.) Make this happen.

Please? Er, No.

Ladies, Germs, Moms, Dads, all the things human or not, if you are reading - OH Shit, and of course you,3 fans......

I am going to throw a switch-up at you.

Are you ready?

Oh. Me either. Just kitten. I am going to throw a song at you weekly starting. Now. So what do you do? Pull out your musical streaming deviceical and give this song a listen:

This week for your Eargasm experience, listen to the song:

Good Graces, Bad Influence by The Spill Canvas

“With some sexy lyrics, and the sultry voice of Mr. Nick Thomas, this song is an instant eargasmic experience. (Mm feel that alliteration!) The song is sang with some passion. You feel the man’s voice shake your soul awake, and your body sway as an instant reaction to the rythum. ”

And now back to the normally scheduled rants about my views on life :D.

So. 2021- Taking shit from no one has fully commenced. I decided, that I apologize way too much, feel guilty about things I shouldn’t, and basically just needed to think about my life. Ew. Thinking, Feeling...the grossest things ever. Sometimes. Yup you heard me. SOMETIMES.

Feelings, as gross as they are, make up who we are right? The thing I like to do with my feelings..

*puts lights down low, burns incense, turns on some Adelitas way, and unbuttons pantalones, as I put on the most seductive voice I pretend to have*

“I love to take my huge feelings, and thrust them deep, down in my overly sized heart, and make as if I don’t have any of those nasty, dirty feelings.”

Okay but seriously, I am one to not process them, and pretend they don’t exist. Apparently, its not healthy. So, feelings, let’s try to feel one at a time, and don’t overwhelm me. Take it slow.

Ya know it isn't so much the feeling itself, but the guilt associated with it. Gosh! I sound like nutjob.

Padded room, reservation for one.

I will attempt my break down of this:

1. Have strong feeling about something.

2. Think about expressing said feeling(s).

3. Feeling comes along with 83098230958209384 reasons how its going to make others feel, guilt sets in.

4. Disregard feeling, go back 3 spaces.

So. Slowly, and gingerly, I will start expressing them, and taking some ownership of them.

Hm- I do that anyways right? Isn’t that what a bloggity blog is? Gosh. Didn’t I cover this topic already?

Woah shit. I think I am losing it.

ANYWAYS, Ladies, Gents everyone inbetween, missed you immensely. ( Okay, more like I missed writing and of course those 3 fans.)

This has been a pleasure. I promise less erotica next time.

Bow chicka wow wow.

Buhbyez,

The Sam
