I'm driving, they're griping

So the other day my mum says "Your Dad and I are going to drive to Dallas Monday."   You see, this is really my Mum's tactic for getting me to drive them to Dallas.   Two 80 year olds, 1 car, ~500 miles = recipe for disaster. Dad says he can drive just fine. The Parkingstons shakes and the inability to stay awake for longer than 20 minutes at a strech? Heck, I guess he'll walk it off. My Mom says she can drive just fine- despite being scheduled for cataract surgery in July and being unable t

The end of a chapter ...

A little over two weeks to go before I head back to the States. It's kind of hard to believe that I've been here for over five years ... it really doesn't seem like it's been that long. I've still got a bunch of stuff to get done to prepare for my departure, some people I need to say goodbye to, and stuff like that. Fortunately, I got an early start on shipping boxes home (which my parents have told me have already started arriving) and getting stuff taken care of for my cats. I still have a bun

I Wonder...

I tend to wonder about a few things. Here's a sample:   About This Site   I wonder how I can change the email address on my profile when I don't know my password (it stores it and logs me in automatically), and can't get it emailed to me since the email address isn't correct.   I wonder what RSS feeds are.   I wonder why it only lets me quote 10 times in a post (then it just shows the words "[ quote ___ ... / quote] " ), but then if I try to add a second post right behind that to finish

what the hell!?

Alright this is gonna be try number two for this entry! I was almost done and clicked something else and then... it was gone and now this is me... debating wheter or not to just say f**k it or write it all over again! Whatever...   I have a pretty crappy job and it doesn't pay horribly and almost anyone could do it, but still every day I show up, on time, and do my best and go above and beyond cause I take pride in my work. I like feeling like I am valuable and needed. So I was off work Mond

ooooh, it's happening

Ok, so I finally resigned myself to the fact that I was going to have to submit the story, My Jump Off, to Nifty. Well, I felt really bad about it the first day and into the the next day. But then, something funny happened........the first thing I noticed was that I had 200 hits on my page that werent there before. The second thing that happened was that I noticed I had moved back into spot 26 on the Top Site List here at GA. The third thing that happened was that I noticed my inbox was full. Th

Been a couple weeks

Yesterday I realized again just how much I love Silven. Just the thought that it might not be until December that I see him had me upset...   I suppose in a way its a good thing that I'd get upset at the idea of not seeing him sooner...   Anyway... I was pretty annoyed with myself last night, I got home too late to talk to him, he'd already gone to work. And now this morning my Internet connection was cut off, so I couldn't get on until seven... I guess he's asleep now... hopefully sleeping

New Nukes

The Bush Administration has proposed creating a new generation of small, clean tactical nukes for use against super-hardened bunkers in places like Iran and North Korea.   I've always thought that small, tactical nukes were a very bad idea. A small nuke that doesn't lay waste to a continent is much easier to justify using. How is an enemy going to respond to one?   What is really sad is that so few people understand the science behind these beasts. Sure- there are significant engineering c

A little update on Xander

Okay, so Xander is now on Iams, which I've read still isn't that good for him, but in my book, it's waaay better than Ol' Roy.   So we were eating dinner today and Jayne just started barking like crazy...we look outside and there was some collie wandering around by the kennel. Well Jayne being such a bad dog, you guys know, was just going psycho, doing all she could to try and get at the other dog. Well I don't see Jayne's logic in this, but for some reason, she thought that she should take it

Heaven Forbid You End Up Alone

So this won't be a particularly cheerful entry just to let everyone know.   I went to Wal-Mart the other night. Everytime I go I check in the music department for this cd, but they never have it. They didn't this time either. However, on the way out I saw The Fray cd. So I bought it on an impulse. I'd really liked "over my head", of course I'd already downloaded it, but the trouble with that is you don't get to hear the less popular, unreleased songs, and sometimes those are the best (lik

tummies and woohoo...

So here is a part of a chat I had with Rich this morning while he was at work...   Rich: so we were robbed over the weekend Viv: what!? Rich: someone smashed the front door glass and took our snack tray!! Viv: wtf? Viv: really? Rich: yes Viv: that's all they took? Rich: yeah, there is a brand new comp in the box with flat panel monitor in the box...they took the snacks! Viv: Viv: no... snacks? Viv: sniffle* Rich: i brought my $.75 and everything.

Checking in

Since this is a community of which I am a member I thought I ought to just check in to say hi. Kinda like punching the clock at work, or whatever it is you do to let people know you're still alive.   I should be writing my entry for the summer anthology, but it's far easier to spout off here. I don't have to think of things like... plot, or dialogue - would character A really have said what he said to character B, or are they just as insane as I am.   Hey ho... Taps fingers nervously.   Da

I'm still here

This might be the longest I've ever gone without an entry. I've been having computer problems like crazy, and also not a whole lot of time to spend online. Plus there's the whole dialup/tying up the phone line thing. I had my mom talked into DSL and then it turned out it's not available here. But today we both got new computers (whoo hoo!) and everything is actually working, and going a lot faster even with the dialup.   Of course there's not a whole lot going on here to talk about. We're goi

What I won't do

I want everyone who reads this to know that this isn't a rant......     I recently got a couple of "talking to's" about giving away too much info about my life, so I made a few changes in one of my blog entries....so let me make something clear for everyone.   I'll never post a pic. I'll never post my address or even the street I live on. Yes, I did say what school I went to, but it's like 5 miles from my house and the only reason I even go there is because it's a magnet school and the hig

Why'd I have to think of that?

So I had a good time last night, and I'm going to write all about it (in another entry), but first I want to talk about a...well I guess "sad" thought I had in my head for some reason when I woke up. More of a "what could have been" thought.   It's funny what's in your head when you wake up. Every now and then I wake up with songs stuck in my head (having a song stuck in my head has never particularly bothered me so it's all good). Sometimes other random feelings or thoughts. Well today f

Here's the problem

Warning...possibly offensive statement ahead       The new layout at the top of the page here on Gay Authors sucks!!!!     I'm sorry to Myr or anyone else who might be offended by what I just said, but the fact is that it really does suck. For one thing, the Frequently Asked Questions banner seems to overlap into itself, and that's just the beginning. The second part that sucks is the bold toolbar with the links that read Home, For Readers, For Writers, Forums, For Teens, Site Map andHe

Love's a Hard Game to Play

Chapter 19 of SOOTB is posted, in case any of y'all are interested in reading it or anything ...   So, anyway, I was chatting with Kitty the other night, and we got on the topic of one of my ex-boyfriends here in Taiwan. Of the several guys I've had serious relationships with here, this is the only one where we broke up not because of any problem between us, but because his family was totally insane and totally freaked out that he was gay, not to mention dating a foreigner! *gasp* But that's a

Pocketbook Activism

Here's an Idea:   A lot of people don't know how many GLBT people there really are. Many of our brothers and sisters are shamed or intimidated into staying in the closet. Here's something that you can do without actually coming out and still make a serious statement.   For every $1 bill you get, give ole George a stash and eyebrows.   After we get a few zillion of these out there and everybody has seen them, we let it be know that these are GAYBUCKS.

He's so cute when he's asleep

So lest you guys think there's a new guy in my life I'd better reveal now that the he in question is my adorable cat, Timmy. He's out like a light! wiggling his tail, twitching his paws etc. This is the second afternoon in a row he's chosen the same spot to take a very serious nap! It's a bit unfortunate since I'm planning to buy a filing cabinet to go right there, but I'm sure he'll adapt.....actually he'll whine and be upset like he always is .   Speaking of a new guy in my life I'm p

the twenties...

What an eventful few days...!   So I got this really snazzy orange card in the mail that said I have a package to pick up at the post office from Davey but I couldn't go get it cause Rich had my car so I went the next morning and picked it up. He made me promise not to look at the bottom of the package because the customs form was there and you have to list what is in the package and then I would know what my present is. I didn't peek! I swear! The instructions were to take the present out

Hit & Run Drivers Should Be Castrated

I suppose I should feel lucky that I've managed to survive five years in Taiwan without being involved in a single traffic accident (although I've seen my share of dead bodies lying in the street), considering how Taiwanese DRIVE LIKE FRIGGIN' INSANE MANIACS WITH NO CONCERN FOR ANYONE ... and that may sound like a broad generalization or stereotype or whatever, but it's not ... every single Taiwanese person who operates a motor vehicle drives like a reckless lunatic with no regard for safety, th

Opinions are like*******........everyone has one

Ok, I have a confession to make.....everytime I try to use the size, font or color options above I get messed up     So, Nick, you ask, what does that have to do with your entry???? Nothing at all. I just thought I'd point that out before I went on my little rant     Warning......rant ahead       It seems like everyone has an opinion about something. Crazy right wingers have a low opinion of gay marriage. Crazy leftists have a low opinion of the war on terror. George Bush, all the repu
