Fever Pitch
Fever Pitch Another sketch of mine, this one I framed and hung in the house. Another day, another blog. (Getting my mojo working again seems to be a full time gig.) I've been tooling around Blog town, reading this and that. For a place that was once chock full of daily writers, this place feels like a ghost town. I used to watch over 200 blogs here at one time, now even with the addition of 3 new blogs to my watched list, I still only have 84...and zero blogs to read this morning. That is not to say that there aren't plenty of active blogs, and they are all good blogs, but I'm looking for blogs that speak to me on a personal level, the ones that show a glimpse of who a person is, gives me a sense of what it would be like to spend the day just hanging out and talking. (But then I am looking for friends, not a hook up, so the problem is my own, it has nothing to do with this site or anyone who writes here.) I've never been very sexually visceral. I do enjoy looking at nudes, but I am not looking in a sexual sense, it's more an appreciation of human beauty than anything that sexually excites me. It takes an actual laying on of the hands for me to be sexually enticed, honestly. That is not to say I am not attracted by physical beauty either, initial attractions do begin by noticing a shapely body or a winsome smile and letting my mind wander to all the what ifs and hows. But that is a reality based attraction for me, I've never looked at a photo and thought to myself, "I want some of that." Photos can lie, they are far too easily manipulated now and I have trust issues. Case in point, this selfie that was taken with the use of a filter. And while it is me, and indeed I do look something like this, what you don't see are the wrinkles, the gray in my hair, the deeply etched WTF lines that reside between my brows. And you cannot see my humanity, you can't see who I am. Personally, in order for that physical attraction go beyond just an appreciation of physical beauty, I have to have a sense of who someone is. Not the deep intimate knowledge, that takes years of communication and verbal exchange. But I need to know that we have some commonalities, share a common view of sexual pleasure. Nothing is more disappointing than going on a blind date with the hope of sexual communion and finding out that fucking a cactus sounds like a better idea, ya know? Well, the natives are restless, calls for food have issued forth and I must go forth and tame the hunger demon. Have an awesome Monday! "Shall I tell you the secret of the true scholar?

I used to love sketching but alas my hands prevent me from doing so now (RA, AS and all the rest). Art was my best (and favourite) subject in school. I'm new to your blog, which is surprising really as you've been here almost as long as I have I'll be back!

I like both the sketch and the photo, but I'm a simple guy, not given to over analyzing anything. Heavens to Murgatroyd Taking Friends on Their Honeymoons The LBD of Summer [post 3312759] My Private Blog – Tell Me All You Secrets

Did you know Martin Landau had a hobby of making fashion sketches on napkins and had a huge collection of some of the most colorful and beautiful ones done on movie and T V sets and at lunches.A modest man,he called them just doodles he would do just to pass time. Using more than all the road!

To needafwb13 and Maize 32. I have tried three times to respond with a thank you to your comments, but the comments won't go through? So...thank you both.

Very well put about images, and beauty. I personally like to see images with artistic aesthetics rather than they be purely sexual in nature. Btw- love the selfie you took! Thoughts from the Garden...

Great sketch! I can get drawn in by a photo.... provided it's an artistic one with some kind of story behind it that makes me want to ask.
