Pounding The Keyboard

       I had read it as comments on a post of a bike-enthusiast writer I was following on Facebook months ago: two cyclists narrating how their road bike’s thin tire got caught in a manhole, and how they flew from their speeding bikes and crashed onto the ground. I didn’t think much about it, and then this morning happened: I was in Binondo when my bike abruptly stopped, my rear tire lifting, and I was sent reeling to the front. It turned out that the thin (front) tire of my bike got stuck on a slit of a cement-covered manhole on the road. Luckily, the traffic light just got green and the vehicles (including my bike) were only starting to speed up when that manhole trapped me, and the motorcycle behind me was able to stop before it could hit me. And fortunately, too, that motorbike's rider, one good Samaritan, stayed to check on me and helped me uproot my tire off the manhole. I checked my bike on the sidewalk, found no damage except an ugly long bruise on the front tire, I breathe

         I gave her a bath this morning; I made sure that every part of her slim body was thoroughly washed. I soaped her sensitive parts, my fingers getting in and out of her while she was wet, and she made a strange sound. I squeezed one delicate part repeatedly and the noise she was making got louder and it made me smile, my heartbeat getting faster.   I slapped her bottom part and she jerked. I rinsed her. Then, I watched the water drip from her gorgeous body. I dried her with the towel then eagerly mounted her and rode her, in sitting and standing positions.      But darn, my bicycle still squeaked and made those strange noises and I couldn't find the part that was making it. Maybe, she needed more than some washing, and that I should take her to a mechanic. I also think I should pause from reading erotic novels. Lol.      And speaking of erotic, since the onset of pandemic, the demand for sex toys in China (where COVID-19 originated) has increased, especially with the mil

      They met each other through a Facebook page called “The Life of An Introvert” months before COVID-19 hit. He posted something and she commented and that started things for them. But the pandemic began even before they could meet personally. But when the lockdown eased a bit and travels were allowed, he didn’t have a second thought and decided to visit her in her house. One minor hitch: she lives in Pangasinan and he lives in Cavite. 300 kilometers separate them and he has no mode of transport except for his bicycle. But who was the guy that said “love conquers all?” His name started with the letter V, I think. He rode on his bicycle, and despite the inclement weather that day, decided to bike his way to her house and finally see her. They are now officially a couple. No drama, no doubts, just pure love for each other.      My niece, who lately is also having a little difficulty sleeping at night like his uncle, purchased a weighted blanket that she hopes will help her get goo

I may not always love you But long as there are stars above you You never need to doubt it I'll make you so sure about it God only knows what I'd be without you If you should ever leave me Though life would still go on, believe me The world could show nothing to me So what good would living do me God only knows what I'd be without you…        The Boys’ awesome and thrilling Season 2 capping off with Beach Boys’ “God Only Knows”: Perfection.      And that scene of Homelander (angry and frustrated) on top of a tall building with the full moon and the New York’s cityscape as the background ( see video here; spoiler alert ), with his pants literally down (lol) will certainly go down as one of the weirdest and most memorable in TV history. Trivia: That scene was supposed to be used for Season 1, but they found it too graphic. Well, apparently, things have changed. The Boys is about a group of vigilantes which mission is to stop superheroes (whose leader is Homel

        Yesterday, I went solo biking in Intramuros (Latin for “within the walls”), and the place of course is one of the nicest biking spots in the whole of Metro Manila. It has nice and historical scenery, of course. And these days? It's quiet and has few cars and people. I was there before nine in the morning, it wasn’t hot so I was planning to have my lunch there but the clouds darkened at around eleven and my bike was already making some strange noises, probably needed some washing, so I just went home and turned Netflix on.      Netflix has been churning out new movies (and series) left and right that people are now suspecting that they knew beforehand that a pandemic would hit us and most people would be staying at home and would be needing, well, new movies and series to binge on.      Some of the new releases I’ve found time to watch are:      #ALIVE : A Korean zombie movie wherein a man is trapped inside his apartment alone while a zombie apocalypse is breaking out.
