Kirk, thanks for the front page pick...a memory from long ago. Hope things are moving along smoothly for you now.
blessed, thanks for the comment. The piece came from comments made more recently than the bullrider memories :-)
Ali and distant moon, good to see the volume of works from you recently. Baby Rose, nice to read your account and get to know you a bit. b.k., so good to see you on the new subs (and front page) once again. Hope your roof is still on after these storms. CJ, troubling times, but your work shows depth and purpose. I'll read more as I am able this weekend, now that the storms have blown over us ...... Rennie
ty Bk yes, it is my first front page and I am so pleased by your sweet sentiment,I am giddy lol, Rennie ty, I too have enjoyed reading your acct. and getting to know you a little. Blessed 23 I am sooo elated to see you back again, we have missed you...
Marshall Hann, about A Piece Of The Pieces:
Ouchie, I too have been broken, by a man who once committed his entire life to me,who told me that my blue green eyes were all that he wanted to see in the soft morning light. He literally made my heart ache with physical pain and then I became numb and cold like a walking shell. My sweet, here is too the healing process and to time, may both complete you again, I truly feel for you...
Kirk, ty for the pick. I know I have never written to you before and formally introduced myself, I apologize. I would like to say thank you for all of your hard work and for allowing us all the opportunity to write freely without worry of harsh judgment and to read the brilliance of others. It is a wonderful creative and emotional outlet. You in my opinion are brilliant for thinking of it in the first place...
CONGRATS to all the Front Pagers!!!! Great job, everyone!
Kirk~
Thank you ever so kindly for the Picks! You are very sweet, and have totally made my day. Thanks!! :-) Btw, I love the pumpkin/heart icon--so great!
Alphonse, about The Irony of My Love:
Oh, my dear--I could relate to this very, very well. From the memories in the music, to the everyday activities...truly, you touched on something here. Beautiful piece. Thank you for sharing it!

Baby Rose~ Thank you.
Baby Rose, Blessed23 (hi), and Rennie, thank you for your words. Congrats to Baby Rose for the first front page pick, oh how I remember the elation! Congrats to all the front-pagers this month; great job Kirk!
And a (another?) special message to Ali: I know I am being horribly redundant here, but I truly find you simply brilliant. Every single one of your pieces, I wish I'd written. To have an iota of your talent, I'd give, well, I'd just give. As you do for us, here. And I thank you for that.
Marshall Hann, about A Piece Of The Pieces: This: "I'm so lonely, and I just don't care anymore. Loneliness is peace."
For fifteen years, I lived here, this place you've described.
And it makes me appreciate where I am now, ever so much more. Thanks for sharing, and just hold on. I promise you, it will get better. Hopefully, in much less than the 15 years I spent there!!
Congrats to all front pagers!!!
aparajita - thankyou.
Baby_rose - thankyou. i'm glad to hear that you came out of it. if you ever see the guy again give him a good kick in the shins from me. Coongratulations on your front page pick too! well deserved i must say. truly deserved.
Ali - Thankyou so much. i'm with hairdiva. i wish i was able to write at half the caliber you do. so a compliment from you is worth a great deal. thankyou again.
rennie - your welcome, thankyou for sharing.
hairdiva - thankyou for your kind words. i do hope it isn't 15 years, but with my current ineptitude/apathy with certain things right now it very well may be. but hey, ya never know i guess, won't know until something happens, so heres hopin. oh, and hello to you to.
congrat's to all the front pagers! Kirk, thankyou so much for the pick.
I haven't had the internet for about 3 weeks now thanks to my roommate(long story) so this would be why i haven't been on here too much. plus midterms comin out of almost every orifice and work as well have bogged me down quite a bit. should be getting the internet again soon though, and I'll attempt to be on here fairly regularly again. also try to catch up on the board and past entries. hope all is well with everyone in life.
blessed
Kirk,
Love the heart shaped punkin! Another fine digest. Thanks
Farah, about Of all the memories :): I did get to keep the moment of happiness with the in-laws, for many, many years. I would hope that you are able to always do the same, as you have written here. I enjoyed this as it brought back some good memories that had been gone too long. Congrats to your front page with this one. Also, congrats to all the front pagers and those new submissions last month. A difficult month for many, but a worthy digest as I read each piece. Thanks again, for another comment, Baby Rose (this time on TEARS) ...... Rennie
Kirk, about romance in this modern age: That's it, make the frog a little more heart shaped and I think you might have something there.

Congrats to all the ones that made the October page...and yes, Kirk--what a harvest! Good job :) I'm not here as much as I like and thanks to you I am reading many of the ones I missed this month...
