Survivor Guilt?

So I just spent the last couple of hours on the phone with my friend Claire. I spent yesterday evening on the phone with her as well. She's broken up with her girlfriend. Again. They've been doing this everyone 3 to 5 months for the last two and a half years. It's really vicious. It's always exactly the same pattern too. Slowly "Jane" pulls away from Claire, refuses to talk or communicate, and starts spending time with her ex (whom she was with for about 7 years before she and Claire got

Regaining Focus

I am going to be disappearing for a while. Worry not for I am still going to be writing. I am not blocked. In fact, I am going to remove some distractions for a while so I can focus almost exclusively on my writing and school work. It may be a few days. It may be a week or a month, but I need to focus while my muse is hot.   Added: On second thought, I will just not be on quite as much. I would miss everyone too much.

No clean silverwear

I get the feeling I'm going to hear a lot of yelling when my dad and stepmom get home. I may or may not have opened the drawer to get a spoon and accidentaly pulled the whole drawer out. All of the silverwear hit the floor, and when my parents find it there they're gonna be pissed. The good news is that Family Guy's on right now, so that pretty much cancels out the ass chewing I'll get later on     BTW, check this site out     http://www.bigfeetpjs.com/Merchant2/index.html   Also, I ha

The plague.

I was sick a couple weeks ago, and just when I was getting better, I caught another bug. Only thing is, this one is far worse. I haven't been to work for my last two shifts, and I've been stuck in bed since Wednesday. I never miss work. If I have a cough, or just don't feel all that good, I usually just suck it up and go to work anyway.     I don't even know what I have. I'm constantly dizzy, my head is pounding, and I'm hot and cold at the same time. Last night, I was freezing, and I

So much for romance

So I went out tonight with a few friends and I was on the dance floor dancing when I noticed this guy leering at me. So I just kinda pretended not to notice and went on about my business. Well the next thing I know he comes up to me and grabs me and he's like, "You're really hot". So I just say "Thanks" and try to pull away, well then he says bold as can be, "Look, I'll pay you whatever".   EUGHHH!! I was so shocked I just kinda stood there. Fortunately one of my friends grabbed my arm

Aussie makes huge astronomical discovery

The Milky Way is twice the size we thought it was University of Sydney 20 February 2008 Source Link     We were tossing around ideas about the size of the Galaxy, and thought we had better check the standard numbers that everyone uses," Professor Gaensler said. Image credit: NASA, ESA, and The Hubble Heritage Team (STScI/AURA) It took just a couple of hours using data available on the internet for University of Sydney scientists to discover that the Milky Way is twice as wide as previous

ARGGHH!

So, my new story is driving me up a wall already. I actually have to write out an outline for all the ideas, but I have the first paragraph down. Woohoo! Go me! Anyways, I decided to put it out there to see if anyone would be nice and give me some nice ideas....   As I sit here at my desk, stareing at my computer screen and the words that I type out, I find myself confused about something. I know I keep hearing the samething over and over again, but still it leaves me confused. Is being gay

Not depressed

I'm trying very hard to get a handle on not being depressed. It's so weird! I'm just, simply, not at all, depressed. Period!   And, I think I've got too much extra energy. I'm not as sleepy. I'm drowsy, but not sleepy. I almost have to force myself to go to sleep.   Am I cured?   Don't know because I could drop into a low, unless the medicine is stopping me. Maybe this is a high on citalopram. I know what a high on buproprion feels like, so maybe this is just what I get on citalopram.

A New Story

So as I finish off my anthology story and send it off to my wonderful editor, moonwolf, I find myself reading one of the posts in the teen section of the forums and can't help but remember my own search for answers during that time. And so, a single thought has turned into a story called Finding My Way. I will not be posting for a while yet. I want to get some major chapters written first.   A boy chronicles his life as he finds out who he is and what he wants in life, love, religion and fro

wtf is going on around here?

Rich bought a book... all on his own.   Davey is away for 2 weeks for work... no internet.   My angel is letting me ride shotgun... and his wrist.   Steve and I are going to Disneyland this weekend... to meet Will, finally.   Kevin is... (not my news to announce).   I bought a new book I've been waiting for, part 3 of a series... I didn't even know it was out, I'm almost finished.   Taking Back Sunday is on repeat... a thousand clever lines unread on clever napkins. Cute Without the

New laptop

I bought a new laptop over the weekend. I like it. I am finally starting to get used to the keyboard. Vista will take a while to get used to as well. I also like this game I have been playing called Rise of Nations: Rise of Legends.

Eh why not...

So since people keep asking me about Valentines Day, I'll just blog it here.   Thursday night he took me to dinner at an amazing Itallian Restaurant. I had the salmon and the food was VERY good, but I couldn't eat it all beause they give you a hell of a lot to eat. The only downside was that they were out of Cheesecake for desert so I had to get some chocolate thing which would probably been very good if I was a chocolate lover, but it was way too rich and chocolately for me.   After that i

La Warning De Tornado

So there's a tornado warning until 11 this morning, which, combined with the lukewarm temperature and dark sky, is making me a little nervous. Knowing my luck, the bastard will touch down in the driveway and mash my car up...lol. I turn 17 on Thursday....I know, big f***ing deal, right? That's how I feel in a way, but I also feel kinda weird about it. It's my last year as a minor, and I feel like I can't wait to get the hell out of my dad's house. Not that we aren't getting along better, becaus

Up Coming stories

My upcoming writings.   My Hiding Story: It's a working title. This is for the first Anthology "Living in Shadows." It will be completed before any others. I have a general idea for what I want to do with the other three, but nothing solid. A male hides himself from others while still being in front of them. He finally finds some one else who is hiding, right next to him. That is a working summary. I'll work on it later. Characters Canara/Cheytan   My one shot series. Some are connected,

Looking for fun

First off, I am not depressed anymore. As of Monday morning, when I woke up not depressed, I have not slid back into a down cycle. I'm not particularly happy, though. I was happy earlier in the week, but I could be happy if I wasn't so drowsy.   I am sleepy or drowsy most of the time. I sleep for hours, get up, eat, go back to bed and sleep for a few hours more. My counselor and GP think it might be the citalopram causing this extreme drowsiness. The GP cut my prescription back to the standard

Coping without smokes

Sometimes it is difficult to cope with life. It used to be that I could just smoke a cigarette, and I would be calm. Now, I can no longer do that, because I quit smoking. Does anyone have any suggestions about coping with stress in a healthier way? :wacko:

A Brief Glimpse

So...I'm feeling a bit off lately. I was raised Christian, but was told to keep an open mind to things outside of what I was being taught by my family. There was one thing that I did hear that my family never really spoke about. Being a Christian while being Bi, Gay, a Lesbian or Transgender. All I ever heard was that it wasn't possible; that God hated those who weren't straight because it wasn't natural. I finally figured out I was bi with a leaning towards women when I was 16, so for the p

A conclusion reached

I've made a few philosophical decisions about how I'm going to live my life from now on, based on certain experiences, and grand disappointments that I've had.   First I'd like to say I won't be giving up on love itself, as I'd been pondering doing just yesterday. That's still just not the kind of life I want to live.   What I am doing though, as a matter of preserving my own personal dignity and self-respect, is throwing aside a certain path I was traveling too often. I will no longer be p

Please Vote

I just want to urge anyone who lives in Maryland, DC or Virginia to remember to go vote today. This election is too important not to go do something. No matter who you support, or what your views are, go cast a vote. The polls open at 6AM and don't close until 7PM in Virginia. In Maryland and DC the polls are open from 7AM to 8PM.

In Defense of Hate

Hate has a bad rap. For generations the Christian church have sought to discourage it. Lately it has become politically incorrect.   Hate is one of the most basic and powerful emotions. It's also one of the most honest if you understand where it comes from.   In studying apes, our closest biological relatives, they have two basic emotions: yikes and goody. All the rest of their emotional states are somewhere in between. Goody we can all understand. It's the reaction to spending time with our
