    To answer your question - it is not quite the phantastic orgy of beautiful new experiences I expected, but I am happy that it spared me drama so far.

    1. MAGO: All your drama is in your dreams. Yes, I’m referring to your dreams about the Pope!

    PS January would be so much better without the necessity of having to go to work.

    1. He sure beats a cup of dentures soaking on the nightstand, doesn't it Norma?

  5. So-so. Like the chap above, I am not expecting too much, but I am prepared if opportunity comes upon me.

  6. I am enjoying the huge rainstorms flooding Northern California. They make staying home even more appealing.

    1. Happy New Year, Jeffrey!

      I no longer have access to all the NSFW images that I used to use since Tumblr and their ilk started making it difficult for regular folk to have access to that sort of thing. I doubt my readers want to see knitting patterns instead of nekkid men. In addition, I don't have enough time or energy to blog regularly. Nonetheless, I'll post whenever I can. How can I possibly give all of you Bitches up? I can't!

    2. Apologies, Jeffery. I misspelled your name.

  8. I'm so confused. His upper body seems sad, but his lower body is ready for anything. Maybe he too is confused? I always find a new year stressful. It makes me feel like I should be making the most of it by dreaming up big plans and then doing some fast music montage to make them happen, but then I just curl up and hide under the covers because it's all too overwhelming.

    2. I'm imagining he came prematurely.
      Such sadness.

    3. Even sadder for his partner who seems to have left the room.

  9. I had a similar carpet in my first house made from the finest polypropylene, it could take anything you could throw at it. My year so far has been dry and by that I mean alcohol free, so if you're offering I'll have a champagne cocktail please and a red biddy for the maid.

    1. MITZI: The bar is open for you as is The Gincuzzi and The Vodka Fountain.

      That goes for all you Bitches.

    2. Had to go back & look at the carpet since the carpet is the last thing I ever would've noticed.

  10. I'm optimistic about getting things done this year. Maybe when I finish this morning coffee I will get off the couch and start something. Maybe.

    1. Good golly, it’s HAYWARD!

      I know what you mean. The lure of coffee and couch is irresistible.

  11. SweetMarySunshine, but is it really almost mid-January? I'm not sure I'm going to survive the rest of the month, much less the rest of this fucking year. xoxo

  12. Let's see, recovering from the Republican take over of Congress, and from having my prostate removed. Can't figure out which is worse.

    1. COOKIE: In either case, you’re dealing with arseholes.

      So glad you’re recuperating.

  13. My new post "Tchotchkes and TV" was made with you in mind. You must set eyes on the joy that is Ms Froggy.

    2. ProximaBlue: I don't know why but I can't leave a comment on your blog but thank you for Ms. Froggy.

      p.s. You should open your own Etsy shop.

  14. Well, no one asked my age.
    And I'm pleased to see you've found the oomph to post again. On my side of the IDL it's already the month for giving up things...I shall think about something I could give up...Happy Rest of Year!

  15. "How's your new year going" you ask?
    Exasperatedly. It's filled with far too many irritants and annoyances already, and I can't seem to get anything done.
    I'm sure it'll get better soon, though.

    Won't it?

    (I hope your year is going well so far, Very Mistress?)

    1. But you have BERTIE now, Mr. DeVice!

      My year is very busy with several projects on the go but it's going well, ta.

      Place some soothing ointment on your irritants.

  16. Holy fuck this glorious secret world is still happening! I don't even know where to begin or how this works anymore...
    it took me for-fucking-ever to retrieve my blognut manual and open the page.
    I need a moment to take it all in.

    2. ROMEO, OH ROMEO! I was thinking about you just the other day and wishing you were back in town, so to speak. What a joy to see your face again.

    3. Hello you gorgeous guardian of the naughty realm. I am lost in the hopeless degradation of fb, and the ongoing entropy of social media is advancing at a staggering pace now.
      we've gone from exchanging ideas and having a laugh to the excessive hyper-narcissism of influencers magnifying their cookie cutter displays in an unrelenting clickstream ... online attention spans now diluted to 8 fucking seconds. It's sad...there isn't room for 8 billion superstars on this planet.

      We will need to retreat and hunker down and nestle in our own little digital pockets of pleasure where we can still laugh and share with the cool kids who get us.

    4. I will look forward to your next post, Mr Coppins! I’ve been looking forward to it since 2012 - or whenever it was that you deserted us. You were a terrific blogger, and I miss you.

    5. If any one comment could sum up just why this singular world of Blogger is still so appealing, Mr Morningwood has won the prize! Jx
