Just call me your wingman

I think I am a good wingman. Or something like that. To date, I have facilitated 3 or 4 people's ability to get laid. Seriously. I seem to be able to create the  atmosphere for my friends to get busy with other people. Sometimes, even without copious amounts of alcohol.

Which makes me wonder. What am I getting in return? 

At any rate, my plea/advice/request to them is as follows:
Do not blame me for how well or poorly this turns out for you. I am only here for to facilitate; any mistakes, diseases, children are not my responsibility. 

In at least a couple of cases these folks have been friends of mine. As in, a guy I know got busy with a girl I know (and they have no business knowing each other in any other way). When it comes to that, my plea/advice etc has been to not make me take sides when things go sour. For I know they will. 

But this isn't about them. This is about me. What am I getting in return for facilitating these things? For saying all the things that I do to these folks? For getting away from a warm comfortable place so they can get their acts together? For pretending like nothing has changed? 

I am not sure.

What's more, none of these skills seem to help me at all. And my friends, despite trying have not been very successful at helping me. Now you're probably thinking that is a lot easier to hawk something useful vs something that's not. I agree with you. I mean, its one thing to facilitate something when everything is going well, its a whole other thing when there is disaster a-brewing. Oh well.

So much for that. Now, if you need a wingman, give me a holler and bring some good luck. And if you know a good one, send him/her/it my way. I need me some good luck :).

Happy Birthday Canada

I have celebrated more than 20 Canada Days in Canada. While this nation is far from perfect and we have so much further to go, there is hope. We are a nation, at 153, looking at the future with a mixed record: we have immense prosperity, peace, safety and a relatively good standard of living for most . We are welcoming to immigrants, refugees and guarantee people with a wide range of rights. We are a leader in respecting people's human rights and punch above our weight internationally. We are also a country that is in the midst of a reckoning right now. We have systemic racism, we are at war with the environment - we are actively digging things out of the ground to sell to the rest of the world. Climate change is ravaging our country - we have floods, fires and drought.  Our past and present deeds towards indigenous people is shameful. We have a long way to go yet, but there is hope. In the midst of a pandemic, with social upheaval to correct past wrongs, or at least make amen...

A year and a bit later

It has indeed been a while since I wrote anything of note. Not because I don't have so much to say. Not because I didn't want to. I just decided that it was better to try and live rather than write about it.  So what have I learned? Some people are incredible at this life thing. Me, not so much. I am living life well enough. Successes, failures, trial and tribulations. Most of it is fun. I still do what I do, and I enjoy it for the most part. Now, I am hoping to get back to writing more. Writing all kinds of things that I have somehow given up on doing. Let's see if that really happens.
