Tropical Paradise

You've got mail.

An old and very romantic film, starring Meg Ryan and Tom Hanks. Our "great" translators when making the dubbing renamed it to our language as "Love via Internet". I don't know why they did that but it's not the first nor the last weird translation they've made.   Anyway... it got me thinking. It got me thinking if it is possible to do it. To start and to keep a relationship via Internet. Horrible things go around about relationships on distance. But I really hope it is possible, at least for n

Random Hugz

So you'll be seeing a lot of Random Hugz from me from now on.   Inspired by Cia and Nephy, I think.   The world can do with more hugs, I think.   Just random hugs to random people.

A Quick Update

At the beginning of last night, I set my status to "Omnes una manet nose" which is to say, "The same night awaits us all". What is comforting on an Election Night, is that in a sense, whatever is going to happen has "Already happened". The ballot has been cast, the dice has been rolled, and we just need to see where the everything falls. I'm not going to say too much, except from a statistics point of view, we saw swings between parties on a totally inconsistent basis, with no discernible pat

'Vegas...another attempt...and a little rant.

So... Rob's birthday is the 13th...I asked him if he wanted to go to 'Vegas--silly question. So we're taking our motorhome to the KOA again. This time with two new friends, and Grandma and her long-time friend Millie...   Now, ordinarily that wouldn't be so bad...but we also take our two toy poodles and my cat with us. Combine that with the fact that Rob's fieldwork site has his supervision on Thursday around 1pm, and he's got to turn in a couple forms to his college professor that day

Refreshing Honesty

I'm finding myself getting more and more drawn in to the world of GA.   I've made a few friends here, and am starting to feel more comfortable with this portal that allows me to be honest with the world, if only through a veil of anonymity.   Tonight was liberating. I had a conversation in chat with someone... and he asked me some direct questions. Questions about my past, and my future. And he has made me ponder the larger questions in my life - for starters, can i really bring myself

Food porn, music and disaster

Food Porn     I tried the new Kentucky Fried Chicken Double-down sandwich.   It's frikin' awesome. Where else can you find all the awesomeness of fried chicken, cheese and bacon in one mouthful?   I had one and... no chest pains!     Cool Old Videos   My facebook friends know that I post a cool old video from youtube every day with a special on Saturday night and a theme for the week. This week theme is the blues influence in early rock.   Because Mondays suck and I want it to s

long time, no post

I guess that is how things go...   Quick run down, My workplace caught fire in December. Don't know if I mentioned that. The rebuild process has been slow and cumbersome, yay for city governments. While it has been being rebuilt, the business was sold.   I bought a new car, a 2010 VW Jetta. Some say it suits me... I don't know if that is a compliment or whatnot.   A week and a half after buying said new car I "interviewed" with the new owner, and by "Interview" I mean I listened to him ext

Bieber Fever

so, Bieber Fever has hit.   like, really hit.   the little f**ker's everywhere!   what started as an unexpected (read: unwanted) surprise on daytime tv last month, has now turned into a full-blown cultural phenomenon. he's #1 on the charts, #1 on Twitter, #1 in little girls' hearts and I'm pretty sure full-grown adults do #1s in their pants every time they hear his pre-pubescent voice.   but, for all the hype and screaming and oh-my-god-he's-so-freaking-cute, Bieber Fever is still a wor

Progress

Ben has been published   Valley of the Dwarfs is out for editing and will start posting soon.   Have started a new story tentatively titled The Killer of Men. It is a post-apocalyptic kind of story. Most of the Earth's human population is dead (the Great Plagues) or gone (the Great Exoduses), leaving small pockets of people out in the countryside or in what remains of cities. Jesse is twelve, going on thirteen, when the story starts. He is a member of the Red Men of the Blue Knoll clan and y

A return to blogging

April 30, 2010         I've just completed a good run. I always feel well afterward, if a bit parched since I don't have a water bottle. I'll be fixing that soon, hopefully. I've been meaning to work out more regularly and I've decided that today will mark day zero for that effort. My goal is to eventually do two miles in fifteen minutes, and twenty minutes of running total. Today I got maybe a mile and a half before the fifteen minute mark and my lower legs felt like they were burning, but

Election Fever

In case any of you hadn't noticed - there's an election going on here in the UK. We're entering into the final weeks, and I'll have to admit to following things quite closely.   I should say at this point that I am extremely biased - i've given significant sums to the conservative party over the last few years, and am an ardent supporter of the right wing position. Now, before I go any further, I want to debunk the myth that UK Conservative Party = US Republican Party. There is a tendenc

The White Tie Dinner

Last night I attended a dinner, at which the dress code was "white tie". For those of you not familiar with such things, white tie is the more formal version of "black tie", and is not usually worn these days. Now, not to brag, but white tie is a look that i really can pull off - I looked awesome. I have quite a heavy frame (think - rugby player. Bulky, but not fat), which was complimented by the cut of the tailcoat.   I had a really great time. I'm not usually the best at formal occasion

I'm just glad he's leaving.

Met my ex today. Total disaster. Well, he's leaving for Belgium in 3 days. I'm just glad.       Well, just a little background why I don't like him at all.   We started the relationship (well, i don't consider it a relationship, i'd say it's f**k buddies, but obviously he thought otherwise) when I was recovering from a crush on a straight buddy. (I know, I know! Don't crush on your straight buudy.) So I'd consider him more like a buoy, or so we call it. It's like you were drowning in a pas

Christian...

...it's a name that's been going around and around my mind of late, but I have no clue why.   Maybe because it reminds me of a long lost love of mine, or maybe it's because I just like the name.     Anyway, I'm obsessed lately with this one song All Along the Watchtower - Jimi Hendrix. I have no clue as to why I'm obsessed with that either.     Things are going well on the job front, I applied to be a fulltime staff person at my job which means 40 hours (I'd also be an overtime sub as we

James....

So there's this guy... (how many times am I going to start a post like this?!)   And he's Married.   We both happened to be at the same meeting today. I couldn't keep my eyes off him. He was wearing a black suit, with a black shirt and grey tie... which for me is the most incredibly sexy look. And underneath, you can see the perfectly toned sculpture of a man who spend a lot of time in a swimming pool...   So I kept looking, and the thing is, every time I looked at his eyes... they wer

the Second Time Around

the Second Time Around     1979   I first met Randy when we were sixteen. I met him at Frank's house- a guy from my football team that I screwed around with from time to time. He enticed me to come over by telling me about a kid from his neighborhood that wanted to join in.   Randy was a shy kid. He wasn't big or athletic or a jock. He was cute and a lot more feminine than most of the guys I previously messed around with. What caught my attention was his bright, intelligent blue eyes.

Washing away the weekend

Yesterday - as one might gather from my post - I was slightly depressed. I allowed myself to remember something wonderful, but that inevitably lead me to the pain that came after. Someone commented on my post that it looked as if I was leaving Narnia (referring to my own perception of how deep in the closet I am) - and this reminded me of the freedom that I felt back then. At that time, I still hadn't felt the full weight of my responsibilities, or of expectations. It was a time for me when

I'm back?

Is it even right for me to say that I'm back?   I'm not sure how long I've been away, but since I always got email notifications, I've never considered myself left. It's not like I've been away for more than 4 months. (Yes, I'm talking to you, BiD )   So uh, anyone who may want to know why, if there's any that is...   Wait for my summer anthology story then, if I come up with anything that is.   Twas a personal issue which I'm considering turning into a short story or something.

A memory to start off with....?

He was wearing Blue; and it sparkled not because of the colour, but because it was HIM. Have you ever seen a guy who just draws your eye, and holds your attention like a vice? Where it's almost painful to turn away? David. His name was David, and he was my first for many things. the first guy I felt that "spark" with. The first guy I kissed. The First guy I Made love to. And the First guy to break my heart.   I only mention it because of what day it is - today is the only day I allow m

Why am I here?

Why have I come here? why am I writing a blog? What's this british upstart thinking of coming along into the forums and stirring up the soapbox?   Well, I think I need to tell you about myself first. I am so deep in the closet, I'm half way to Narnia. I live in a small town in the UK, and generally speaking homosexuality is not accepted. So finding an escape online has become a sort of "release Valve" for me. A few years ago I was a member of another internet forum, and we formed a very
