What I find remarkable is that our library computers are "unfiltered" or totally uncensored. This means that I was looking online for pictures of naked men in a publicly-funded space. Note: a privacy screen was in place and no one was nearby.
The library adminstrators and our city council have held firm to the principle of non-censorship for our library and I understand this practice is standard for Canadian public libraries. I've fairly sure that this degree of freedom would not exist in many countries in the world or even in parts of the USA. My son's dog (Toby), an energetic 2-year old border collie has become increasingly attached to me in recent months and has become somewhat jealous of our other dogs.
Since my son has started his part-time job, I have the pleasure of taking her for long walks, early morning and after school. I walk in the wilderness along an abandoned railway track for about 30 minutes while she runs free, wild with excitement.
Yesterday, she was sitting on the back of the couch while I was lying on the couch with my laptop on my chest. I reached down to give my own little dog a boost as he wanted jump up to be petted. Most unusually, Toby growled and lept onto my little dog, pushing him and my laptop off the couch.
I caught the laptop just before it hit the floor and separated the snarling dogs but in the meantime, the power cord became wrapped around Tobi's leg and became damaged. A new cord is on order but for now, I will be laptop-less for at least a week. :-(
I am wearing boots today at school just to tease the Boot Fetish Student teacher who I posted about yesterday. I'll post a booted picture of me another day.
We run into each other in the staff room and at the photocopier but we haven't spoken or even acknowledged each other. He gets all pink-cheeked and flustered when he sees me and I just have to smile at that. Sweet! And a lot of fun!
But, my lunch period is nearly over, so I must cut this short. I'm sure that there will be other boot-fetish developments to report, eventually.
Fetishes are interesting. I've always been intrigued by them and what they mean for certain individuals.
ReplyDeleteYes, I also wonder what caused the fetish in the first place. Having said that, I love boots and feel at my sexiest wearing them.
Deletewhat to do about the doggies?
ReplyDeleteNot to worry! This was a very unusual event and as my son said: "They never do this when YOU'RE not here!"
DeleteDogs, when left alone, will establish their own pecking order and territories within the house.
Oh dear. You are lucky that the power cord is the only damage! Laptops don't usually like being flung only the floor!
ReplyDeleteI like boots. As long as they're OFF the man! Otherwise I wind up getting smacked by them.
Peace <3

The laptop was fine, Luckily. I used the laptop for an hour aftetwards until the battery ran out.
DeleteI wouldn't mind getting smacked by a hot guy's boots, at least once.
If you are actually surfing for porn at the public library I at least hope that the computer monitors have privacy filters on the monitors (plastic sheets that reduce the viewing angle of the screen). I get irritated when people surf for inappropriate content in public spaces, alienating others in the process.
ReplyDeleteI'm sorry for not being clearer. Yes, privacy screens were used and no one was actually near me. I'm a teacher first and foremost. I'd never be that irresponsible.
DeleteThe only "porn surfing" I did was to get the pics for this post.
one man's fetish is both fascinating to consider (viz.'why') and usually boring to the one contemplating it, for it is human nature to first think of yourself doing it.
ReplyDeleteI remember spending endless hours in analysis 'trying to get at the root' of someone's fetish, as if once there was an explanation, it would stop. As Rocky and Bullwinkle used to say 'but that trick never works!" in the end , fetishes are incalculable.
Thanks for offering a psychiatrist's perspective. Enlightening!
DeleteEven though I don't have a dog, I find the TV show "The Dog Whisperer" fascinating. One thing Cesar (the host) keeps talking about is being a dominant pack leader. Obviously your son's dog, feels like you are no longer the pack leader, and he must step up to the plate, protecting you if necessary. C'mon Buddy Bear, you gotta show'em who's boss!
ReplyDeleteSince I don't have dogs of my own, I gotta dispense this valuable advice I've garnered from watching television to someone!
My parents love that show! The top dog in our house is my daughter's 12 pound terrier who we call "The Grouchy Old Man."
DeleteSpeaking of shows, I have recently discovered (On Hulu) a delightful Canadian show called Little Mosque. Love it.
DeleteYou're right: dogs - in fact all animals - will establish their own pecking order. That's nothing to worry about at all.
ReplyDeleteThe library system here recently had a discussion about that very thing. The end result: They are not in the business of censorship of any kind. Surf all the porn you want - just try to be discreet so children are not exposed, there are privacy screens between each computer.
Yes, discretion is the word!
DeleteLove the last. picture! Something about that young man really grabs me. Certainly the big strong thighs are right up my alley, but there's also the totally suckable uncut cock that I keep coming back here to look at. Hot boy!
ReplyDeleteI agree! Muscular thighs spread open wide say to me: "Dinner's served!"
DeletePlease tell me you erased the history
ReplyDeleteSorry, it didn't occur to me. I'm not too worried about it, either!
