I was just reviewing some of my old dares and realized how much fun it was coming up with them. I really need to find some time (ok, MAKE some time) to get creative again.

I wonder if I'm still twisted enough to pull it off?

Now I'm off to go be daring....

Why is punctuation and capitalization such a lost art in chat? Do people just not know how to type? Are there still hunters-and-peckers alive out there?

Granted, I understand the informality of chat conversations, and will sometimes stray into the land of all lower-case myself, but to ALWAYS avoid the use of any capitalization or punctuation, I can't do it.

Punctuation for me is the guide to figure out if you're being sarcastic or just naive. It helps me determine if you're...

Yep. No sleep here. Not a wink.

I have some ideas for dares that are bouncing around inside my head, but so far I've been unable to consolidate them into anything sensible.

Weird.

And annoying. Annoyingly weird, you might say.

One of the ideas seems to stemming from a response I posted to someone else asking for a dare...I forget the post, but it involved making a thong out of rubber bands. Y'know, tying or looping them together to make a stretchy,...

Yep. That's right. I've lost my dare muse. I don't have a clue where they went....one minute, I was nearly overwhelmed with dare ideas...now, I'm stuck.

Like a rock in a stream as water eddies around me. Flowing past, but never stopping or giving me anything but an occasional splash in the eye.

<grumble>

Inspiration, where art thou!?!?!

Perhaps this lame attempt a blog post will turn something on in my brain and a strange, fantastical, orgasmical...

Who would have thought that a dare about an electric meter would get y'all so charged up? Certainly not I!

I do have to admit I'm shocked, pleasantly shocked, with all of the wonderful praise you've offered.

While I understand that an individual's reputation really doesn't mean too much, I still take great pride in recent surge of reputation comments I've received. I only hope that I can continue to live up to your expectations!

However, since I am also...

Well glory be, I'm a member. I don't know when (or really how) it happened, but I feel like I should have celebrated the occasion! Maybe blown a candle out? Maybe performed a celebratory dare?

Anyway, I just realized it, so here's to me. Wahoo!

Okay, I realize this is rather inane, but in my world, I believe that we should spend more time celebrating life's little achievements.

Plus, I'm past being scare of chat, so I felt it was time to move this blog along......

Did you ever have one of the irrational fears that seems to keep you one step behind everyone else? Some fear that makes absolutely no sense, but still lingers in the back of your mind? Hiding. Waiting. Showing itself only when you about to step beyond whatever limit you've decided is too much?

I do.

Its chat.

Completely irrational. Completely true.

I can't tell you how many times I've ALMOST clicked on the getdare.com chat, but chickened out....
