Challenges

I just saw a classified ad wherein a dom top was seeking a "submassive". Does this mean he will accept overweight but not obese?

I am choosing to be put in a position wherein one of my fears will be faced publicly. In the past, I believed that if you are irrationally afraid of something, you MUST do it and get over the fear. I have a more moderate view now. Not every fear is worth the energy of dispelling. Unfortunately, it's hard to know where the dividing line lies and you can end up on a slippery slope of challenging yourself less and less.

Well, I'm doing it, for better or worse. My life has a narrower focus as the years go by and I realize there are very few things I'm challenged about that I really care about. However, some of those I am massively (or submassively) challenged about are the very ones I care most about.

That's where the work is.

New York

I am going to New York City and environs from 01/25 to 01/29. I will be attending my brother-in-law's book launch and then hanging out. barkis and I are trying to meet after year's on each others' flists. Hopefully I can see mofic, too. Anyone else in the area?

I have tickets to see The Little Dog Laughed and Company and I'm generally all kinds of happy, especially since my parents have got me the air ticket on their points.

Thank you for all your non-suggestions about which Dickens book I should read. (*glares*). I'm going to read Great Expectations.
