  i say go with the lust in your innards thing moon-
  sure beats another regular monday!

• moonriver said on Feb 08, 2009....

  hey, secret my friend, *that* might just be it...
  the lust-in-the-innards thing.
  i will need to investigate the rate of change in my metabolic processes, though.
  
  hormonal reconfig parameters still running ok at the moment...
  hair growth a bit prolific but still under control.
  should i go for it?
  i mean, maybe a visit to to my favorite barber shop later this afternoon.
  this has got to be an interesting monday after all! lol

• moonriver said on Feb 08, 2009....

  hi memy.
  you really think so?
  will i feel better if i wake up the werewolf from his deep slumber, and allow him to roam the night afresh and howl at the moon again?
  but where's the signal?
  i'm waiting for a signal. lol.
  here, lemme help you finish that carrot cake. ((munch munch...))
  g'nite to you too, dear friend.
  
  

• queenparanoia said on Feb 08, 2009....

  dude are you hungry? i'll be having pancit luglug (some kind of asian noodles very delicious) later. wanna share??? ooooooohhhhhhh and halo halo for dessert!!!!
  
  hehehehehehe
  
  ok i'm botehrig you know i need to go back to the hardware store and be the most boring cashier ever... ;-)
  

• CreativeWoman said on Feb 08, 2009....

  You are quite the tease, moon.  Promising a secret and baiting us with the promise of a werewolf...you are quite clever.  I'm checking for silver bullets just in case.  (Will Coors Light work?)
  
  Facebook, huh?

• the_infernal_optimist said on Feb 08, 2009....

  Hmmm...I dunno what sort of signal you're waiting for, my friend, but I'm darned curious.
  
  ~Infernal
  

• moonriver said on Feb 08, 2009....

  hiya queeeeeenieeeee, muah!
  oh i know your pancit luglug. rich sauce, shrimps, ground pork rind, salted eggs, rich everything (including bad cholesterols and hi carbs, but who cares? lol)
  we have an equivalent noodle-based dish that goes by another name but is just as delicious.
  it's my all-time favorite since childhood.
  i would cry inconsolably if my mama forgot to bring me home a hefty serving of this dish, wrapped in banana leaves.
  (that's unveiled secret #2.)
  and halo-halo for dessert... native or foreign visitor, who could ever resist that?
  and you ask me if i want a share?
  hmm. maybe that's the signal i've been waiting for. lol.
  
  hi cw.
  gotcha, didn't i?
  you did right in checking your supply of silver bullets, my friend.
  you might need lots of it soon.
  coors light doesn't work, unfortunately.
  try spanish gate red wine dry, 11,5% vol. lol.
  consuming a bottle of it makes me forget a career in werewolfism, i just wanna grab a 5-string gitarra española y canta mi serenata a una senorita rubia, hoy!
  yup, facebook. like you.
  
  hi infernal.
  your curiosity serves you well, my friend.
  so many signal blips flying about, but you have a sharp radar-screen eye.
  i was hoping you'd tell me what i'm supposed to be waiting for.
  maybe when the egg hatches? :-)
  
  

• phoeby said on Feb 08, 2009....

  oh drats, i thought i was in for some goss or something.
  
  
  um....so... what was the secret, moonriver?
  
  
  ??!

• CayenneMan said on Feb 08, 2009....

  
      Hello moonriver, I just thought I'd let you know . . . I think I saw a small piece of carrot cake in you're beard . . . . you don't need ants  :o)

• MsStar39 said on Feb 09, 2009....

  No more promises moon, It is time to let the Hungry Beast out.
  My Friend has guavas growing, I will leave some out for you, or
  is the inner Beast lusting after something different this time?
  

• moonriver said on Feb 09, 2009....

  hi phoeby.
  nice of you to drats by. lol.
  ok, just for you, i think i can unleash secret #3 right now.
  let's see. ((shuffles through his file of ready-to-unveil secrets...))
  
  ok. here it is.
  in the next couple of weeks i'm going to post a few blogs about sophie and i.
  including some pictures.
  interesting enough for you, my friend? ((wink))
  
  

• Lucytorial said on Feb 09, 2009....

  always a giggle from me moon, thank you ♥

• mom said on Feb 09, 2009....

  Moon I don't have a clue as to how old you are but when I have something important to say and I forget, I call it a "senior moment", so I try really hard never to have anything important to say.  That way I will never forget what was so important in the first place. This is the real secret behind my posts.

• moonriver said on Feb 09, 2009....

  hi msstar.
  when you and destiny asked for it, i seriously mulled my options for a few days.
  really.
  now all the hormonal reconfig dials are turning wildly,
  and i'm on the verge of letting it out.
  dont tempt me with guavas.
  or other luscious morsels for that matter.
  you don't realize what you're getting into...
  signals all around.
  i'm getting dizzy and woozy...
  lowwrrrllll.
  
  hi lucy.
  such a giggly-diddly girl you are.
  i'll get to you yet, i will.
  ((wink))
  
  hi c-man.
  i started playing the youtube clip, then it sort of locked midway.
  i think it's my internet connection that's the problem.
  but yeah, it's the rousing, stomping, howlin' wolfman blues all right.
  i'll play it later tonight under the full moon.
  perhaps i';; join in with a full-throated howl.
  wha...? carrot cake? what carrot cake? ((plays innocent))
  hey dude, i know you can play some bad-ass axe.
  maybe posting more blues on your blog will tip me over completely into werewolfism... :-)
  thanks, friend.
  
  

• Lucytorial said on Feb 09, 2009....

  Moon you got to me ages ago you fire monkey, you cheeky cheeky monkey you! tee he hee
   
  Thanks for the giggles but what were you going to say? huh? huh?
   
  Ohh I needed a giggle.. a big chuckle, from my belly, my little mound jiggling like a rubanesque model laughing at her masters tongue sticking out over his bottom lip trying to shape my nipple just ever so... (bwaa ha ha haa) sorry couldn't help it.
   

• phoeby said on Feb 09, 2009....

  aww that's really sweet. yeah spose it's interesting enough... i love a nice love story (sophie is a human being of the female kind? smiles)
  
  
  sophie is one of my favourite female names. it is soft and rolls off the tongue easily.
  
  
  love phoeby.

• moonriver said on Feb 09, 2009....

  hi mom.
  clues about my age are all over the place.
  "asian fire monkey" being the most obvious.
  i refuse to admit falling into "senior moments," and i absolutely object to any insinuation along those lines, hahaha.
  but i get your point, funny lady. i'll take note of that trick once i can no longer stop the inevitable... :-)
  
  

• phoeby said on Feb 09, 2009....

  ahhh, i know how old he is, but im not telling. he's older than me and younger than um..... whatsisname... mick jagger.
  
  
  
  

• moonriver said on Feb 09, 2009....

  hi again phoeby.
  sophie is my wife.
  it isn't her first name, but it's a real part of her name.
  i've been blogging about her since my first few months at sc.
  if you're interested in some background stories about her, here are some of my blogs that mostly revolve around her:
  
  1. Sophie's back, finally. This is set in real life, although with a dreamy veneer. The only inaccuracy I put into the story is about the twin girls. One of my favorite blogs.
  2. Life with indigenous pigs. A very funny story in a pastoral setting. Another favorite.
  3. Bathing in hot springs and waterfalls, with love (2). A nice sequel to #2.
  4. Night chat with Sophie. Many readers didn't like this. I didn't like it either. But it had to be written down.
  5. Sophie wears Prada. Another funny vignette. For this post, I made a cute avatar in her likeness.
  6. Blame it on the pink shirt. Some find this blog funny. I didn't. But it's one of my favorites too.
  7. Missing Sophie. A sad video vignette, which I made when I was really down.
  8. Sophie's chimes. A sentimental journey. More sweet than bitter, I'd like to believe.
  9. Genetically-modified orgasms in my mind. I consider this as a sequel to #5, one of my top favorites.
  
  of course i'm younger than mick jagger by more than 10 years.
  although in my 20s i could do a fairly decent impersonation of his british rocker's voice, sneer and swagger, all the way to the skin-tight pants and mic-twirling antics.
  nowadays i'd be shamefaced to even try, hahaha.
  
  

• moonriver said on Feb 09, 2009....

  hi again lucy.
  i was going to say...duh... something about... uhhm...
  what were you saying?
  something about belly, little mound, rubenesque, tongue, bottom lip, nipple...
  that did it! it just pushed me to the brink!
  ((snout, canines, claws and hair fast growing...))
  aarrrrgggghhhhhh!
  rowwwwwrrrghhhhhh ngggrrrhhh!
  aawwooooooorrrhhhgh!
  
  

• PAPERBACKWRITER said on Feb 09, 2009....

  
  Oh, moonie!
  
  I don´t know what it is lately... lol ...I am calling it soulsynchronising....
  
  ...it always saddens me when I check on bloggers and all blogs are deleted...so many archives in SC have been lost, never to be retrieved again....so many beautiful, insightful, heartwrenching, fun, adventurous threads....
  
  ...when I read your comment to diabolicdame that you are slowly pulling out your blogs (...you commented this to Super Z as well....perhaps I assumed wrongly and it will "only" be your poetry) it almost broke my heart......I once removed all my blogs but they were not of literary value, and well regardless (lol) I will be putting them back as soon as my offline life has regained it´s balance...
  
  I would not feel right to copy your post to save them for later reading... so I told myself this week I would love to spend a day in your mind ...lol and blog simultaneously about it...would you have liked the title : a day in the the mind of moonie ...
  
  ...it is not only about you but yeah...preserving archives, preserving wonderful interactions of how the human spirit struggles to overcome and how we find solace in each other... (I am not articulating this as I want it to ...but what the heck...lol....my motto in 2009 is about just doing it without much dillydallying......yup, i sentenced my inner editor for a year!)...
  
  ....well, I am ever so grateful with your links above!!! it makes reading for me structured now, and saves me from diving in your mind, thoughts without a map ! lol

• quietone said on Feb 09, 2009....

  stopping by to say hello before you begin your "transformation"!!  Gotta love the both of the mysterious you's!

• MissMimi said on Feb 09, 2009....

  OMG, life with indigenous pigs!  LOL  I laugh just thinkiing about that one.  One of my all-time favorite posts, moon honey. 
   
  You are the master of drawing me in, thinking you're serious, then I get hit with a pie in the face.  :D  Naughty, naughty...

• fragglesrock said on Feb 09, 2009....

  should i be frightened of the transformation?!

• MsStar39 said on Feb 09, 2009....

  I  am frightned but eagerly await your transformation,
  You have kept it in check for quite a spell so I am sure your
   transformation will be more powerful.
   
  When is the next full moon?
   

• diabolicdame said on Feb 09, 2009....

  I remember your post about the end of the werewolf.. but I never believed it was the end.. I knew he'd come back!!   :-D

• moonriver said on Feb 10, 2009....

  hi everyone!
  ah, such an exhilarating werewolf night it was!
  the howlin' and the rippin' clothes and the bitin' and the munchin'...
  awwooooooorrrllllhh ngggggrrrhhhh.
  ok, enough of that.
  i'm sober again.
  
  hi paper.
  i'm glad you think so highly of my blogs.
  i noticed your trademark <3 comments on some of my earlier blogs.
  don't worry, only a small selection of my sc poems will be pulled out. i'll post an early notice to give you (and other readers) time enough to read them, and save them to offline files if you want to.
  the idea is for me to publish them under my real name and to be dissociated with the "moonriver" name.
  thrilled i am indeed if you write about "a day in the mind..." :-)
  
  hi cw.
  a nice combination indeed, friend.
  lol @ animal husbandry skills.
  you can practice on taming a wild werewolf during the next full moon.
  but you'll have to catch him first with a silk lasso... :-)
  
  hi ddame.
  now that the werewolf has tasted red meat again...
  there is no escaping him. growwwllll.
  you can run but you can't hide... even with a generic facebook profile. lol.
  now i wonder... how could you have known the werewolf's return? ((wink))
  
  

• moonriver said on Feb 10, 2009....

  hi hegemone.
  that's understandable, since i've been writing about this peculiar werewolf almost since day 1 here at sc.
  here are some of my favorite werewolf blogs:
  
  1. Internet dog or God, who knows? This is the very first blog where I introduced the werewolf persona.
  
  2. Then in early December 2007, the werewolf rapidly evolved, from aargghhh! can't take anymore! to mr. werewolf, phone call from your twins (one of my favorite episodes) to self-discovery in the deepest dark.
  
  3. Fragments of hell is an account of a real-life experience, except that in the end I gave it a bit of a fantasy twist that provides a key link to understanding the werewolf psyche. Fragments of returning reality is a semi-poetic but more true-to-life rendition of the same incident, sort of like a sequel that leads back to reality.
  
  4. To whom it may concern (early version) later led to a more full-blown To whom it may again concern in the summer of 2007. This is easily one of my favorite werewolf episodes, because it gave the creature a less horrifying and more entertaining personality. I think the readers were drawn into the blog's black humor.
  
  5. LadyGamer's guide to forest survival. Another nice episode. Makes me recall LadyGamer... ((sniff))... miss her. This is where I got the idea for the next episode of the guava-munching werewolf.
  
  6. Terrible werewolf secret revealed. I think most will agree (as I do) that this is by far the best werewolf episode. I didn't think much about how to write it. Everything just came flowing in -- actual events, real-life pics (except the growing hairs...lol). As the cliche goes, the blog practically wrote itself.
  
  7. Then something horrible happened, and the werewolf said goodbye in What's worse than a dead werewolf? A wewo!
  
  thanks for the comment, hegemone.
  i'll ask the werewolf if he got enough signals, and convince him to keep a civilized presence here at sc during full moons... just make sure he has enough supply of dental floss.
  
  

• moonriver said on Feb 10, 2009....

  hi quietone.
  saying howdy to you too.
  it was a quickie werewolf night.
  fast and wild and eminently satisfying. ((wink))
  back to my civilized ways, lady, don't worry.
  
  hi missmimi.
  still chuckling at sophie's pork predicament, are you?
  but what i remember best (also with a chuckle) was your comment about "urine-soaked fur."
  now that's one naughty naughty comment. lol.
  
  hi fragglesrock.
  judging by your blogs, pretty lady, i don't think the werewolf can ever intimidate you.
  but just to be on the safe side...
  during full moons, make sure all your doors and windows are locked. :-)
  
  

• moonriver said on Feb 10, 2009....

  hi again msstar.
  like i told quietone, it was a quickie werewolf night.
  next full moon is march 10, 10:38pm est.
  i'll be free 6 pm upwards. look for a rather hairy canine with eyeglasses, a blue nokia 5000, and an extra front appendage.
  is that a date?
  
  hi again lucy.
  of course you're not scared, lady.
  that's because you have your own full-moon howling habits.
  
  hi again phoeby.
  you're not dumb.
  you're not silly.
  just be more careful, or you'll become my next victim. lol.
  
  

• MsStar39 said on Feb 10, 2009....

  That is definitely a date, you have described yourself so well that I feel no need to describe my attire. I will find you.

  it would be interesting to see who finds who first. lol.
  
  hi again cw.
  make sure the silk lasso is field-tested guided by strict engineering criteria for tension fatigue under cyclic-loading and impact-loading conditions.
  otherwise, you'll have a huge problem on your hands, lady. lol.

  it's good to be back among friends, yes.
