Twitter Stalking…Look Who’s Talking!
Namaste and Salaam to all of you WonderfulBeautifulPeople! Welcome to a fresh week, ripe with opportunity and potential happiness! Yes, the monsoon seasons are upon us, and raingear is now Fashion-Du-Jour. Thank goodness! (Though, as a dogpark grrlygrrl, I often look like a bum/hobo/squeegeekid/undesireable/etc) Luckily, Vancouver fashion is rather “weather” oriented, and it is common for a grrl to wear klunky rainboots- even to dinner! (Quel horreur!) Hahahha!
As you can see in my photo above, my lymphglands are still puffy. (I believe my band may refer to this as “teabag” look…in some disgusting reference to, shall we say, balls-under-chin?? Boys! Cochons!!! LOL!)
But, thankfully, I am feeling better with the cold fading. Yay! *happydance*
As many of you are, I am on the “twitter”. Of course I say the dumbest shit, but it is fun to read other people’s musings. Aint it though? Yup. That’s why its popular. I mean- REALLY POPULAR!
I like all the dog people and yoga people on there, and occasionally I even see ramblings from technology blogger people………and…I saw a name mentioned, in one of these random people’s tweets…that happened to be the ALLEDGED name of my….BIOLOGICAL FATHER!!!!!
No shit.
Can I just say, I was, like..”Holyfuck!!” LOL!
I couldn’t help myself: I had to investigate!!!!
No I won’t share the name/details/etc. Cause you know that aint how I roll…..but I just HAD to confess to you….
I started following the dude. Hahahaha!
Am I a stalker? Am I such a loser? LOL!
And I DO Have blessed and loveydoveymushywonderful relationships with my parents (who happen to be “adoptive”parents, of course….and like most adopted kids I can tell you: I am THEIR KID AS IF I CAME FROM THEIR BELLY/GENES. So, its not like I’m “missing” anything from my dad, and have some need to connect with the birthdad. I don’t.
(I’m confident he’d be mortified as my manager actually tried CONTACTING him in like, 96 or something, because my birthmom-whom I know+love+have spent lots of time with before cuz I got to meet her when I was 21….another story for another time..so I won’t digress too much…….but I discovered my birthmom was ALSO ADOPTED-meaning I had no medical history- so my manager tried contacting the birthfather, in a formal and polite way, SIMPLY TO INQUIRE ABOUT MEDICAL HISTORY…and was met with a lot of negativity, etc)
So, I was horrified and felt very badly for the attempt at contact. And never did it again. (Clearly the chap had not likely ever told anyone he and my birthmom had their “experience”) *sigh*
(Which is stupid because my birthmom is awesome!)
Anyway, Ducklings, I am following him on twitter DESPITE this. LOL! Maybe I need (more) therapy?
I will tell you he is very “geeky” and boring (LOL!) Because he is a “business person” but I think he likes tea a lot and “GoogleSidewiki” and “openamplify” (whatever that’s about).
He is in the UK.
Nuff said.
Just sharing. *group hugs now*
I hope all of you are hugely blessed, this week, and are relaxed enough to have fun with the whole “Halloween” schtick. I will be dressing Nicklas up in his various dogcostumes and sharing pics with you.
Yes, I know he’s a dog. LOL!
But I don’t have a “human” baby to dress up. Just a babydog (an almost-thirteen-year-old babydog!!)
Hmmm….maybe I should ADOPT A BABY????
All the cool kids are doing it….
Om Nama Shivaya.
Love-bliss to you all,
Biffy

family can make or break you. better to pick the right one or it could be like saying “how terrible…look how terrible” a vicous circle, but you “never do what i tell you to do, kiddo.” good thing you get along with your adopted family. truth be you gotta praise and love what it is that you love.

My dad is quite geeky too. And quite boring as well! Lol! However, he used to be a paramedic and I LOVE listening to his old medical stories. I get bored when he rambles on about mechanics (like his car or his boat) or his video games. Hey, I love video games, but not the kind he plays.. Lol!
It’s cool you feel comfortable enough with us to share such a story. We aren’t just your fans, we’re your pals too! That’s awesome. It makes us feel special. Well, me anyways.
I hope you and your family have a fun and safe Halloween. I’ll be working at the Panago office, but we’ll be all dressed up and eating candies so it should be very fun! We’re gonna have a pumpkin carving contest too.
Ciao!!

So he’s lurking on your site and you’re (re)lurking on his. He’s gonna soon know (maybe) that you know that he knows. He must secretly know you’re awesome but can’t publicly admit it. His fail. But the story continues, right? Who knows what the next twist in the path will bring. He might just catch a ride on the Awesome Train and ask for…what…inclusion maybe, but that’s your story. Happy trails Woman!

I get how you feel about your dad. I’ve had a similar experience with my own birth-dad. Left my family when I was young, and ever since he left, I had NO real desire to contact him. I even had a chance to meet him when I was 18, but the old man FLAKED. He decided to move outta the country (with his new family) and stopped paying child support (because I’m still going to school). Que sera. Whatever. That’s life. Ce. La. Vie.
All the cool kids are adopting, so why not? lol Pull an Angelina for sure. Travel to different parts of the world and adopt a kid from each country. Ha, ha! I’m joking. But yeah, if you wanna adopt, go for it!

You are so cool Biff. Very down to earth and your blogs are inspiring. Adoption would be an awesome thing to do. If I wasen’t able to have my own ( I am blessed with three ) I would def. adopt.

Dear beautiful Bif…do not be ashamed that you are responsive, in whatever way, to the birth father you never met. The strongest relationship a girl can have is with her father. Even if you never meet him, it is a blessing that he exists, he breathes, and obviously, on some level, he cares , or at least is proud of his fabulous daughter. I am certain your adoptive parents would never feel betrayed by your natural interest in him. Perhaps you can turn your feelings about him from negative to positive, and that will be a good thing for you and for him, even if you never speak. Namaste, lovely one.

My mother had a baby about a month after her 15th birthday. She gave him up for adoption. I had wondered about him my entire life. I’m turning 30 this year and decided to find him. We’ve met now and my life is completely different. I am so thankful that I had this wonderful luck to find him. My biggest fear of finding him my whole life was that he would shun me for being gay, which is a trait we both posses. Odd.

Your totally right. You don’t have to be biologically connected to be a family! Great loving parents is all that matters!
