I know probably against better judgment here but particularly for my own 'humor' here.
But since a lot of us has been around here for awhile I'm sure some of you have crushes on fellow forumites here.

So for merely humoring feel free to fire away but let's keep this civil folks I dont want this to get out of hand.

Sure, this thread sucks ass and all, but I have a question that might save it. So when a straight guy has a "crush" (usually not quite romantic, per se) on another dude, it's called a "man crush". If a lesbian has the same kind of crush on a dude, what do you call it?

JUST WHAT THE FUCK DO YOU CALL IT?!?

I can't even remember the username, but there's a girl here whose avatar used to be a blonde girl wearing a jester hat, who I assumed to be her.

She is-- just... stunning. I remember typing a post, seeing her avatar, and just stopping in awe once. I guess that's the internet equivalent of a jaw dropping open.

But no crushes.

On a related note: got last semester's teaching evaluations back. From my 200+ student Geology 101 class, I counted 4 complements of the "hot" variety in the "comments" sections. That's out of about 10 who bothered to write anything in that section. Yeah baby. That's an ego boost.

I also had to post one on my door, because it said "Nice Shirts". Geology 101: all about the wardrobe.

Oct 19, 2009#215

Chippy

I met Mable on V-J day in New York City. I was recovering from a leg wound from Bastogne, and I had saw her as a nurse in the hospital. My leg had mostly healed, and I knew just how to show it off. I visited a local dance club, accepted and free drink and a pat on the back, and that's when I saw her. She was in a stunning black dress, with the fanciest make up and hair a country boy like me had ever seen. She recognized me from the hospital, and walked over to me. We talked about my leg, our lives, and the war. It seemed like we had talked for an hour before the band played my favorite song. I looked at her, she looked at me, and before I knew it, we were dancing.

Things went by like a blur after that. We started dating, got engaged, and had a lovely little marriage in the Kentucky country-side. We were young and in love. We moved into this nice little cottage, and it was there we started and raised our family.

After the boys left, it was just me and Mabel in the house. We would have guests over and they would laugh at Mabel's funny stories, and drool over her delicious casseroles. She always seemed to emit confidence and love, no matter where she was. She was even like that the day she started to go.

I remember the day. She was in the hospital, on a rainy Monday, I believe. I came into her room, bringing with me an old record player. I played our song. The Song we danced to. The song we fell in love to. She looked at me with such love and appreciation. She couldn't dance anymore, but it seemed like her mind was going off on some intense, passionate dance routine. She wanted to go that way.

She was the most amazing person I have ever met. She was my only love. She was my Mabel.

I was out on my new skate board day after my birthday. I was going by her house, fell and skinned my knee. She must a saw me from her window because she came right out dragged me inside and fixed me up right as rain. After that she was like the aunt I never knew but always needed. Me and a bunch other kids who lived on that street. Anytime we had problem, done something stupid we couldn't tell our parents about or just needed someone to listen she was always there. After I grew up and moved away it still hit me pretty hard when I heard she passed. I hope old mister chippy is doing alright. He loved her so much....

I was so sad when I got the news about Mabel's passing.

My first encounter with Chippy and Mabel was not a pleasant one, but it was very important to me. I was twelve years old at the time and had earned the reputation of being a bully and a bit of a lost cause. My father had left my mother when I was very young and I had never learned to respect other people.

I was harassing one of the neighborhood kids on the sidewalk when out of nowhere Chippy grabbed my neck and forced me to apologize to the kid. He then brought me into their house and gave me a stern talking to about right and wrong. Afterwards Mabel gave me a popsicle, as if to tell me that it was all right, everyone can make mistakes.

I believe that they saved my life that day. I had been heading down a dark path and they set me straight. It wasn't easy to regain the trust of the townsfolk, but through hard work and diligence I was able to end up an honest and productive member of society.

Thank you Chippy. Thank you Mabel.

She wasn't flashy about it, but Mabel really was a pillar of our little community. I guess that's why nobody was ever bothered that little, insignificant things would be missing after one of her visits (or if they were bothered, they never said nothing). She was just one of those people that did so much good around town, you wouldn't ever think any other way about her. Mabel always knew who was sick or even just lonely and could use one of her casseroles, some chicken soup, or a fresh batch of cookies. If anybody noticed that she visited Mr. Thompson (who always seemed to have a little more cattle after a storm that saw other folks lose some of theirs) or those Davis brothers (that treated that little niece of theirs so unkindly) just a bit before they turned up at the morgue, nobody said a word, least of all Sheriff Dawkins. No, the town just tended to take them as the town could do without.

I met Mabel when I was four, during one of my first hospital stay after getting leukemia. She was a volunteer nurse at the there, and I immediately took a liking to her. She played with me when my parents weren't there, read me stories, and at night she would sneak me a bowl of vanilla ice cream. One day she brought me a wheelchair and raced me up a down the hallways like a racecar, and she even made the engine and tire squeel noises as we went along. I think she may have gotten a little in trouble for that one, but I think she was just happy to see me smile. I never found out what happened to Mabel after I left that hospital until now. My condolences, Chippy, she will be missed.

(Based on my memory of a real-life nurse when I first got sick and what she did for me.)

Mabel.... How time makes one forget.

It was Spring, a time when one attempts to leave behind their pasts, look forward to fresh starts and new beginnings or in my case, leaving no trace from the Winter's misdeeds. The snow on the ground had barely given way to greener grounds, though walking a few steps still gave way to a satsifying slushing sound every now and again. I was making my way down the rusted and barely kept together tracks, having recently leaped from a railcar that had been my home and escape for the past 4 months off and on. It had been a few days down this mostly open land, barren of most trees or flora, when I came across the Ranch. Though it was less of a Ranch and more of just a cottage with a large backyard, it surprisingly still had it's miscellaneous food bearing animals and plant life.

Not wanting to draw too much attention to myself in this new area, I thought to make a quick snatch of a chicken and possibly a couple of ripe fruit before making my way down the stretch of rail tracks again. My stomach quickly reminding me that I hadn't had a full course meal in a long while. Having had made my way from homestead to homestead over the past few months I had taken what food was left over from my ransacking of each home. The occupants were either not home at the time, or I had to incapacitate them to avoid being later described in detail. A few dried goods did not exactly make for a full meal.

I decided I'd check the home first and see if there might perhaps be an occupant or two I could threaten for a meal and made my way toward the quaint home. Simple in design, yet obviously full of detail and care, the home was breathtaking. Paint that seemed to flow seemlessly from corner to corner, windows so clear you could swear you could put your arm through the frame, and not a speckle of mud to be seen on anyplace mud didn't belong. It was a sight the likes I'd never seen before. A sight so strange and wonderous, I was caught completely off guard by her voice.

"Well child, are you gonna stand there like a wide-eyed doe or can you speak?". I hadn't even noticed the elderly woman at the door the entire time. How could I have been so taken by the atmosphere of this place that I had forsaken all the years of learned training of self-preservation and protection? "You do have a tongue, don't ya girl?" She sounded gruff, yet playfully sincere. Quick to regain my thoughts and composure I slyly replied "Just wondering what you're doing out here all by yourself?" "Oh, I'm never alone." she smiled while nodding toward the few livestock in the backround behind me. "Alone, hm?" thinking to myself that this was the opportunity I was seeking.

She smiled again, there was something in it that made me uncomfortable. Not because there was something malicious behind it. Malicious I could handle. No, it was something I had never seen before, felt like something I'd never felt before, and it made me feel off balance. She was a bit older than I had previously noticed, possibly in her late 60s to mid 70s. She had me follow her toward the kitchen, a room that seemed to have a life of it's own. Plants were hung from different parts of the area, cabinets were intricately crafted (obviously hand-made), the sink had seen many years of use yet still shined an almost blinding silver, the table itself sat around 5 but the elegant tablecloth seemed like it belonged on one fit for 50.

Taking in the entirety of the room I barely took notice as she flowed from cabinet to cabinet, grabbing boxes and ingredients in such a fluid motion it seemed almost rehearsed, as if this were the big show she had been preparing for a long time. It wasn't until she removed some of the cookware with a clang that I turned again to face her. She herself was remarkable to look at. Though there was nothing particular about her outfit it seemed almost surreal. A plain dress, also obviously hand-crafted, with flowers and small vines stretching over the enirety of it, her hair was long but kept up in a bun, silver strands found their way out though and draped on her shoulder. It was obvious she didn't need to keep up appearances for anyone, yet she took care of herself it was clear.

Finally done with her collecting and smiling she began mixing her ingredients with a skip in her step. "Don't get much company coming through here?" trying to get a grasp on how alone she was exactly. "Oh not much these days. My boys come to visit in the Summertime though." tossing together something from a dried good box she continue mixing. "Don't live around here do they?" I was reaching for a bit more information. "Oh no, they moved out to the city years ago! Families of their own and what not" Hm, no family nearby then. All that leaves is her husb.. "Why don't you go wash up now dear? Lunch will be a few minutes yet" she didn't even turn to speak. Standing up I simply asked where I might find the washroom and made my way through the house. She was so trusting....

The hallway, while not exactly long, spanned many years worth of photos all along it's sides. They were almost chronologic in their order. The first few were obviously taken on earlier type of photographic paper as they had turned a slight tinge of brown but still easy to make out. Turning to my right, I saw the first photo of a young man in uniform and a young shapely woman in an amazing black dress. They were photographed together during a romantic meal in a nice restaurant. "This must be Mister Not Home yet" I though to myself as I began taking my time inspecting the photos as I walked along the hallway. Photos of the woman in a hospital bed with a newborn in her arms, the same man at her side, followed by 3 more of nearly the same. Four boys in total. One of the photos had tilted slightly and I reached out to straight it out, my obvious compulsion for perfection it seems was still intact. As I straightend it out, I noticed there was a indention in the dust behind it. "It'd been left like this for years?" the realization was interesting to me, perhaps one of the children had tilted it during a visit and she left it that way as a memory of them? Without thinking, I moved the photo back exactly as it had been before. A strange act not common of me, such silly reverence for something I cared nothing about and yet... the thought boggled me as I continued walking and looking at the photos.

Though there were many photos of her children and her husband, a large portion of them were all of different people. Young, old, different race and gender. In each photograph, she was being embraced by the other person, not just one of those "pose for the camera" embraces, but the kind that shows an eternal gratitude for life. Who were they? Why was she in them with these people? Why are these photos framed in her hallway? It didn't make much sense to me at the time, but she had affected many lives it seemed. In each one she aged a bit more, yet still retained her smile and presence. It just "had" something to it. I couldn't pinpoint what it was and it bounced around in my thoughts as I entered the washroom.

I worked at the local dance hall, before it went out of business, and I remember every Thursday night, and indeed other nights, when she would walk in with a beaming smile on her face... I changed the records and swept the floors, most patrons didn't notice me but not Mabel. She was always happy and dancing no matter what was playing, though Chippy didn't care much for Elvis, she always had a kind word to say.

There was this one night when we first got Rock around the Clock, Bill Haley, and she just loved it. Dragging Chippy onto the floor time and time again, dancing all night. She even came in on that last sad night, when we closed for the last time and she had baked each and everyone of us one of her famous casseroles. Here's to the swingin-ist lady stateside.

Oct 22, 2009#270

Ever since I was a little boy, I could recall Mabel shopping at Pa's grocery shop. We used to say that you could set noon on the store clock to her arrival. She always dressed modestly, purse over her shoulder, and a page of coupons from the local newspaper neatly tucked into her wallet. I would follow her around each time she came, helping her get the ingredients for her famous casseroles. My, even now so many decades later, I can still remember the ingredients off the top of my head: salt, milk, onion, beef, tuna, cream cheese.... She watched me grow from an awkward young boy to a strapping young man, and I watched her age gracefully until she was like a grandmother to all the boys who had grown up in the town. No longer did I skip after her, fetching what she needed, now I practically ran the store while Pa was off in 'Nam. I made sure to give her a little discount on all the food she bought, but I never told her- surely she'd berate me for treating her unnecessary kind. But her casseroles! I would be steeped in sin if I said a cross word about them. I asked her one time how she made them so delicious. I knew her recipe by heart, I said, had known it for years since I was a boy. But I never could imagine anyone could have taken such mundane ingredients and turn them into the savory bits of ambrosia that would make even the Devil hisself cry tears of joy. She smiled at me, patted my shoulder, and said, "Oh Charlie, you can't just sell the secret to cooking off the shelf. It's got to come from the heart." And I never doubted her. Maybe she added something special that couldn't be found in your average grocery shop or maybe all she put in was a touch of homespun love. Whatever it was, I no longer cared. Even when times were hard, she still made her weekly run. Even when the big chain stores opened up and offered produce at lower prices, she kept on shopping with us. It was like she was the voice of the people, a irreplaceable part of the small-town community that we grew up in. Nothing could have made us sadder than Chippy's announcement that Mabel had taken ill. For once, in decades, we no longer had her radiant smile herald in the Saturday afternoons. Even though that year there was the worst snows of the century, I would walk over to her house and deliver whatever groceries she needed. And my, how she did bake. She must have churned out hundreds of casseroles. And when she passed, I closed the shop for the first time in decades as well. A day without Mabel was not a day worth doing business at all.

It's been many a long year since I retired moved to my sister's town. But still, everytime I pass by a Mom and Pop grocery, I get the urge to stop inside, pretend I am ten all over again and Mabel has just arrived.

Walking into the washroom I was greeted by the almost unfamiliar scents of soaps and creames. It'd been so long since I'd had a real bath that didn't consist of a nearby spring or a quick splash of water to the face from a nearby puddle. Leaning over the large sink, I took a closer glance at some of the supplies strewn about, yet seemed to be in some kind of order. Lifting a particularly interesting bottle, I removed the cap and inhaled slightly. Lavender and cinnamon from the smell of it. Most of the bottles were mostly plain in design, purchased from a nearby grocer no doubt. "Hm, how close would the nearest town be I wonder" Placing the bottle back in it's original spot, I was about to grab for a couple handfulls of water when the call came from behind the door.

"Dearie, I've put the food in the oven now so it's going to be around a half hour to hour, why don't you take a nice soak in the tub, I have spare clothes my husband hasn't used in a few years you can have if you care to." as if she had been reading my mind the entire time. Strange.... I hadn't even heard her walking down the hallway. "Must be good floorboards" I dissmissed the thought and looked up into the mirror. Had it been so long? Perhaps I would take her up on the offer, when would be my next chance? Staring into the mirror I took another look at what recent events had left upon my visage.

My face was dirtied that my abnormally pale skin almost had a tone of brown. Removing my dark green and black fedrora, my hair was frayed and split at the ends, held in a weak tie-up by almost rusted pins. Carefully removing the pins with my nails, I allowed my hair to fall to it's length, halfway down my back. Placing my fedora down while looking at my half-ragged clothing it was no wonder she had offered a fresh set, and the fact that she offered me men's clothes was no surprise either if one took more than a few seconds glance at my current wear.

Trousers once possibly blackin original color, were now a faded ash grey at best, there was no belt loop left to speak of though it orginally had one, and they were badly frayed at the cuffs on the end. The long sleeve black button shirt I was wearing fared no better, also faded, missing buttons, and long since had the sleeves ripped to shorter lengths. The uneven lengths would give one the assumption that they had been ripped off in a brawl more likely than for comfort, which of course would be correct reason as to the shirt's condition. Matter of fact most of my possessions and clothing at the time would tell a more clear tale as to where I'd been and what I'd done while I was there than I would ever admit with my own words, most especially the dried splatters of blood on some of the darker part of my clothing, the smaller spots caked in my hair... and especially on the serrated long knife I had tucked deep into my boots....

Opening the door slightly and looking down the hallway it was clear that my host had returned to the kitchen, I found the clothing she had spoken of placed neatly on a chair beside the door. Taking them in my arms, I began to close the door when the smell first hit me. It was so succulent and mouth watering, my knees nearly buckled beneath me. Whether it was the fact I hadn't smelled anything that had been cooked beyond a small fire in a thicket of trees or that it was just that amazing didn't matter, I was nearly floored and my stomach let out an audible growl. Nearly forgetting about the bath that awaited me I snapped back to attention when the clothes in my arms felll to the ground. Shaking off the daze I had been in, I picked them back up and shut the door. Placing them down again over the sink I began running the water into the large tub. It was rare to see any households with a running water sink, much less a tub, but as with most of this house, it seemed like much care went into it's details and comforts of living.

As the steam began to rise, I removed my clothing and allowed it to slump the floor. My pale body was not far different than the clothing that had recently covered it. Scarred, smeared, and mostly covered with bruises of different ages and color, I allowed it all to slowly make its way into the almost scalding hot water. The first shock of pain was almost immediately replaced by the muscles all over my body relaxing their tense pulling. I felt like I was melting away. My bruises ached and felt like they were soothing at the same time, the dirt and grime that had so deeply imbedded itself on my skin and nails began to crack and release it's hold on me, the water even took on a slight pinkish hue after a few minutes, from the blood that was being brought back to life after weeks and months of being dry.

If I had trouble remembering when my last bath was, it was even more difficult to remember a time I felt so at ease. Closing my eyes I allowed myself to soak, close my eyes, breathe in the steam around me and slowly drift off with my thoughts of the past few years. I had traveled from Chicago to my current situation in what I thought was possibly the New York area...

A knock at the door startled me, nearly to the point of leaping up out of the tub, though my body was so limp and relaxed I barely managed a startled shiver. "Dear, you've been in there an hour, meal's just about ready." I had fallen asleep. I had fallen asleep in a strange home, with a stranger awake and moving about, and about 5 feet from my knife. I had no idea what was going on but I knew it needed to stop. I gave myself a few last scrubbings with the now lukewarm water and a nearby sponge to get the last remnants of dirt left on my body. Pulling the stopper out of the bottom of the bathtub by the chain, it drained slowly but efficiently. Watching the drain only for a moment and pulling myself together, I kept repeating in my head what I was here for and what I needed to do and move on.

Grabbing the new clothes, I quickly buttoned the new shirt and pants, gave my boots a quick wash in the now empty tub and tugged them on. This time however, I secured my blade to my waistline on my back before I reached for my fedora, and with a filp it was back on my head. Though my hair was still a bit wet, I simply pushed it with a twirl up into my hat and made my way out the door and down the hallway, with a new determination and less distraction.

Mabel, I’ll never forget her. I remember the whole story as if it were yesterday. You see, Chippy and I have been best friends since childhood. We grew up together, played football in the fall together and baseball in the spring. When America joined the war, Chippy and I even enlisted in the army together. Can you imagine that? Young “Chippy” Chipperson and Jon Baer, two fresh-faced kids from Kentucky marching off to play at soldiers. We fought side-by-side through Normandy and Market Garden. Things got bad in Bastogne though. Chippy got caught in the open during a round of shelling and took a nasty piece of shrapnel in his leg before he could get to our foxhole. Trees were exploding all around us; I couldn’t let him lie out there like that and drug him back to our foxhole. You should have heard how badly Chippy tore into me for risking my life doing something stupid like that. I didn’t care though, he was my best friend. Lucky for Chippy, he got sent back home due to heal. I got promoted and had to fight until the end of the war.

Well once I got back to the States I naturally had to visit my best friend Chippy in the hospital. We talked for hours, catching up with each other. I told him war stories about me and the rest of the squad, and Chippy started telling me about a nice nurse that he’d gotten to know somewhat. Since his leg was pretty much healed by that point, we went out the dance hall that night and wouldn’t you know it? Mabel was there. She came up to us and Chippy introduced me to her. Soon enough, the two of them were twirling around the dance floor, putting everyone else to shame.

Things moved pretty quickly after that. Chippy and Mabel went steady and soon enough they were married. It was a beautiful ceremony, just for family and close friends and I was honored to be Chippy’s best man. Mabel was radiant in her lacy white wedding dress. I had never seen either of them more in love.

I moved to New Haven, Kentucky shortly after Chippy and Mabel did. I ended up getting a job as a deputy sheriff and soon enough I had a wife of my own, Irene. Irene and I moved in next door to Chippy and Mabel shortly after we got married. We had children of our own and they loved to go over to “Auntie Mabel’s” and play. While Chippy and I would go hunting or fishing on the weekends, Irene and Mabel would get together and bake or quilt or take the kids out on little field trips. I was an only child and Irene’s family lived in Indiana so it was nice to think that the kids had their “Auntie Mabel” right next door whenever they wanted to see her. And Mabel, bless her heart, always did everything she could to make them feel like family.

Decades passed. The children grew up and moved out of the house but we still lived right next door to Chippy and Mabel. I gave another best man speech at their 50th wedding anniversary when they renewed their vows, just as I had so many years before. It was truly amazing seeing just how in love they both were after all these years. I think they may have been even more in love then than they were when they first got married.

It was just a few months before Mabel’s 80th birthday when we found out she had pancreatic cancer. She fought it bravely, never letting herself drown in grief. She worried more about what Chippy would do after she passed than about herself. I remember Irene would spend all day over at her house during her last months, helping Mabel make and stockpile frozen casseroles for her husband. Not long after her birthday, though, the cancer got so bad she couldn’t stay home anymore. I drove with Chippy as we took her to St. Joseph’s hospital. The doctors couldn’t do anything but try and make the pain as tolerable as possible for her. I remember waiting outside the hospital room on August 23rd, 2004 while Chippy played their song for her one last time. Even though I wasn’t in the room, I couldn’t help but break out into tears right there in the hallway as the song ended and her heart monitor flatlined.

Mable was one of the best friends I ever had. She was kind, generous, and genuinely loved life. She was truly one of a kind and I don’t think I will ever meet someone quite like her ever again. Mabel may have passed away, but she will always live on in my heart.

Here’s to you, Mabel. I hope you’re dancing in Heaven.

Ok, I completely failed on the latin translation, I must be much rustier than I thought. I admit it, I was wrong, trying to be funny and wrong.

But the main point I was trying to make remains, though, that's like the third time you've said or implied that I'm trying to act like I'm smarter than everyone else... not the case. I'm just the guy that can't stand misspellings or bad grammar, cause I'm effing nuts and an annoying little fuck about it, but it's something I can't quite NOT do. I'm somewhat outwardly apologetic about it but still do it in good spirits, because I know that grammar or spelling abilities have no reflection whatsoever on intelligence or lack thereof. It just means my brain is good at memorizing stupid rules, just like it's good at remembering stupid trivia; but it's also incredibly bad at spatial perception, it has no sense of direction whatsoever, and has a marked tendency to love anything with Scarlett Johansson in it. It's just brain wiring, some people are good at math, others are musical, I don't know... that's not a reflection of intelligence, and I've never implied I believe it to be.

That reminds me of a joke, where a father used "playing cards" as a euphemism for having sex with someone. One afternoon he finds his twelve year old son's door locked. He asks, "What are you doing in there, son?" The son says "I'm playing cards!" The father, quite concerned, asks "Who are you playing with?" and the kid says "You don't need a partner when you've got a hand this good!"

It's not that kind of thing. It's where I meet someone through a common interest - on online game, messageboard, whatever. We talk, casual at first, then over weeks or months, more personally. We become friends, or at least friendly. After a while, we talk almost entirely outside the format where we met initially. Things start getting personal. I even find myself being trusted, and trusting in return. And it's great. And maybe it means something - maybe it doesn't. And it gets to a point where they say, "it'd be nice if..." and they're right. And yet, at about this point, we both have to acknowledge that it never will, because they're in Oahu or Sao Paolo or Bucharest or wherever. They got their own thing going on, and I've got nothing to offer anyone, so that's where it falls apart.

And it keeps happening, and I'm goddamn sick of it.

I'm not trying to manbaw. I'm not even drunk. I'm just very frustrated with myself. The women I feel like I have any kind of connection with around here are either married, or wind up using me. That woman I mentioned in the other thread, she's telling all my coworkers one set of stories and tells me another about her situation, so I know neither are true, and I don't need that shit. I don't care if she feels like she needs more attention - she can get that from the guy she's actually seeing. Then when I happen to connect with someone online, it's great, except they're thousands of miles away and that's not going to change. So, I need to change things so this doesn't keep happening. I'm not even sure why I'm sharing that with you lot, or why I'm being nakedly honest in threads full of sillyness.

Personally, I find being nakedly honest a consistent letdown. Better to be honestly naked.

I dunno, what keeps you from picking up and moving thousands of miles away? It would seem if you're unhappy in your current area/situation, then if not much prevents it: move? The girl who became my current GF lived 3hrs away from me. While that might not be "thousands of miles" it was still an uncomfortable distance. I made the effort to go see her in person, realized that what I had "where I used to live" wasn't worth keeping and moved. That decision has shaped my life in many ways, but mostly for the better.

I'm working on it. I figure if I can get a few thousand saved up I can make a move and afford an apartment and find a job. But the thing is, the problem isn't my location, it's me. Changing where I am isn't going to change /who/ I am.

You're right, LB, it probably won't change your core personality or values, but it might give you a fresh attitude or perspective.

At any rate, I hope that things improve.
