Blog Posts on this is me counting my silver linings

Another One by Tristan Tales on Dec 25, 2011He came all over my chest. I came everywhere. He pulled me closer, my head on top of his left arm. I was in the spot. I reached for the cum rag and wiped myself off. I attempted to stand up and head straight to the bathroom. He pulled me closer again...

SPAM by Tristan Tales on Sep 29, 2011Just when I thought I had already run out of things to write about (which by the way explains the long break from posting), I teared up. *** It's bunso's birthday today - yeah, the same kid that I used to carry in my arms is now seventeen. One more...

Rock My World by Tristan Tales on Aug 23, 2011My world was shaken this afternoon. The US East Coast - and, of course, Washington, DC - was rocked by a magnitude 5.9 earthquake - right smack in the middle of a work day. It was, to some people, impeccable timing. For me, I was busy and I had to st...

Seriously? by Tristan Tales on Jul 27, 2011I just finished watching PNoy's 2011 State of the Nation Address and I can't help but feel impressed - enough to actually write about it. Beyond the bits and pieces of political gimmickry, I find this is as one of the most positive speeches ever deli...

Auf Wiedersehen by Tristan Tales on Jul 20, 2011He had been asking me to meet him up for a couple of weeks now. Two weeks ago, I was extremely busy. Last week, I was away on vacation. So when I finally got back to work and he saw me online on the office server, he sent me a message and invited to...

Bus Ride by Tristan Tales on Jun 20, 2011Have you ever felt invisible? Have you ever disappeared into a crowd? Have there been days when you actually felt that the world may not even notice that you are gone? I have. Surprising, isn't it? But, I really have. Tonight is even one of tho...

A Different Kind of Normal by Tristan Tales on Jun 13, 2011I had a weird feeling when I woke up this morning. As soon as I opened my eyes, I reached for my phone and checked my messages. I then went to take a leak, gargle and then put on my contacts. I looked outside my window - the sun was already up. I tu...

Another Boy by Tristan Tales on May 23, 2011This is a story about a boy. Yes, another boy... *** My boy and I have been at it since last year. He caught my eye online. He's interesting in a very half-naked kind of way. I must say, the profile was just too good to pass off. I sent the first m...

Demystifying Thirty by Tristan Tales on Mar 3, 2011I have a confession. My life has become boring. I blame it on age. For those who don't know it, I am thirty. God, I am a dinosaur. I am at the borderline of young and old - I am too old to be young, angst-filled, jaded and carefree;&nbs...

It's A Small World Afterall by Tristan Tales on Feb 7, 2011It was one of those days.I felt unpretty (even if I buy a hair that won't grow and fix my nose if he says so) so I decided to go to a salon to get my haircut. My usual stylist, Danielle, was taking forever to finish with her clients - so I decided to...
