Jersey, Wawa, and Little Miss Delaware

Kelli Jae Baeli Posted on by

I just returned from a week in New Jersey, visiting a couple of friends. There are always dangers in big cities and always dangerous cities in every state. I knew that, and still, I had my own apprehensions; especially since a new report listed Camden as the most dangerous city in the nation. But i wasn’t in Camden. And everyone outside Camden knows to avoid Camden. Apparently, even the Camden Criminals know to stay within Camden. Or something like that. But I was in Glendora, and it reminded me very much of Colorado Springs. Clean, relatively safe, and not at … Continue reading →

Insomnia, Sex, Guilt & MahJongg

Kelli Jae Baeli Posted on by

There are several things that have kept me from writing lately. So I thought the only way I was going to get back to writing, was to write about what’s been keeping me from writing. One is a good reason that most people wish they had. I’ve been having lots of sex. I’m in the throes of a new relationship and everything is fresh and exciting. And the sex just happens to be really great, and that makes me want to continue to have it–especially since my self-imposed two year celibacy, where my only lover had a high and low … Continue reading →

Baby Furry Ghost

Kelli Jae Baeli Posted on by

I was on my way to my friend’s house, delivering Frappuccinno and a Snickers crunch bar, and prepared to provide a massage because her back was “killing her.” (Oh the things we do in the middle of the night for friends). The journey through the dark countryside on a blacktop road was a ripe situation for dreamy vestiges. I’m not sure i really did hallucinate, and i may never know… But there i was, winding around the wooded road, trying to keep my eyes peeled for feeding deer that often wander near the shoulders, and my eyes caught the darting … Continue reading →

Psychic Hotlines

Kelli Jae Baeli Posted on by

It’s not that i don’t believe that there are individuals out there who are gifted with psychic abilities, it’s just that i realize these gifts are so easily exploitable and can be effectively faked. Take that popular Psychic phone line for instance. If you spend a lot of time watching late night cable, as i do when i am online working on web pages, you will see the infomercial-style program over and over again. They mostly use the same three or four clips which they feel will “prove” how authentic their psychics are. I imagine they choose the clips which … Continue reading →

Plaque Brain

Kelli Jae Baeli Posted on by

I often have trouble remembering my dreams, even though i wish fervently that this was not so. Dreams are an incredible resource for a creative person, and this NO ACCESS thing makes me think that the Powers That Be are protecting me from some screaming ugly… At any rate, when i do recall a dream, i like to write it down…if it’s interesting…so… I was having exploratory brain surgery. Skull open, i had a metal halo contraption around my head. Two of the docs were in there–or orderlies, maybe…they were acting crazy, looking at my exposed gray matter. One of … Continue reading →

Texas Pain Saw Mess-a-Girl

Kelli Jae Baeli Posted on by

Once upon a time there was this lesbian who had been in a monogamous relationship for 7 years, the last year of which she had been very unhappy, living in what some would call the the Second Ring of Hell, also known as Texas. She was away from her usual circle of friends, and ripe for a dance with infidelity. She was the flirty type, but had never acted on her crushes or any of those raging hormones. She had been flirting with an old friend online, via emails and phone calls, and wishing she didn’t live in Texas. Then one … Continue reading →
