So I've been thinking a lot about the qualities and characteristics I require in someone before I have a serious relationship with them and I've come to an unfortunate conclusion...I'm impossibly picky. I mean basically my criteria are such that they have to be impossibly gorgeous, brilliant, witty, and morally virtuous. All without being vain, condescending, mean, or holier-than-thou. They also need to be suitably unconventional, easy going and all around non-stodgy, and WANT me without N
My friend Claire called today. I've mentioned her in a few other entries. She's awesome; at various phases in my life she's definitely been my best friend. She also holds the distinction of being the only girl I was ever in love with. I'm often attracted to girls, sometimes even a tad enamored, but usually there's no real emotional/romantic connection. Except for her, I wasn't even particularly attracted to her, but I still considered spending my life with her. Anyway it's only fair I supp
"It's All Been Done"
by Barenaked Ladies I met you before the fall of Rome And I begged you to let me take you home You were wrong, I was right You said goodbye, I said goodnight It's all been done It's all been done It's all been done before I knew you before the west was won And I heard you say the past was much more fun You go your way, I go mine But I'll see you next time It's all been done It's all been done It's all been done before And if I put my fingers
Well I finally got my hair done. I went from a long-haired blonde to a short-haired redhead. Cut off a good 4 or 5 inches in some places. Fun change. Dramatic.
Speaking of dramatic...I don't really know what my problem is (although I'll probably keep looking for it until I've successfully analyzied it three times and managed to once again pass it by to analyze something else ). I've been a little...moody. I think it's frickin winter. I hate how early it gets dark. ...I like the clot
I like alliteration; can you tell?
So today totally rocked!
First off I was doing the evening/night shift at work so I got to sleep really late (2:00pmish). Secondly, I'm well!!! WOO HOO, I was sick for a little more than a week and it totally sucked! Plus I hadn't been sick in awhile so I guess that made it seem extra less than fun.
So anyway I went into work, and I was running late because it was rainy and traffic was bad. Which seems like that wouldn't be a good thing, but it to
Anyone know that song from the Chicago soundtrack? I love that soundtrack! This one's actually one of my least favourite songs, but the title fits nicely for this entry.
About 4 years ago I was freaking out about moving. Leaving my first apartment, my first "home" away from my family. I didn't want to change the dynamic I had with my roommates. I was freaked out about the new job I was about to start. My new classes...Life in general.
The year before that I clearly remember my two
Yeah, so I said that to my cd player today .
I was on my way to the bank and I was listening to a cd in my truck, and really enjoying it, when it suddenly started to skip. So without even thinking about it I looked at the cd player and said "dude, focus". LOL, then I realized that was a silly thing to say to a cd player. Of course by then I was laughing my butt off so I went all fake dramatic, "Comeon! This is like your only purpose in life. You can do this! Focus, you can get thro
So I was having this conversation my close friend, Claire this evening, and we got to talking about kids. She's a lesbian BTW, in fact I think I might have mentioned recently that she just broke up with girlfriend. Well good news they're working things out and getting back on track! Anyway we were talking about kids and she was saying how she really wanted to have her own kids, like biologically. So I was like "so whatcha gonna do for sperm?" and she was like "well I guess we'll ask a fri
I said that quite a few times over the last 24 hours.
So as several of you might have known from talking to me on MSN, I was kind of stressed out last week (and sort of the one before that too). It was mostly because of work...well I think that was the root of it anyway. Basically I just don't think it was right for me. So I quit Wednesday. Then I went for a VERY long walk along a very beautiful stream (well technically it's a "bayou", but "stream" sounds prettier ). It was wonderful
Well I wanted to do a "sing along" blog in which people guessed the next lyrics of a song. However, unfortunately I hadn't restarted my computer in about 4 days and I finally gave in on me halfway through .
LOL, but it's been awhile since I blogged so instead I'll include my response to writing prompt # 12. I had fun with it. I did take some "creative license" though. Here was the prompt:
You awake one day to find a giant jar of mayonase about to attack you. Who do you think about
So I finally did it. I finally managed to sit still and focus on an idea long enough to produce a first chapter.
It's a story idea I had about 2 or 3 months ago. I frequently come up with story ideas. I even often conceptualize them to a high degree and plan out the plots and characters. Getting them down on paper is the hard part though, but I finally did it! I'm really excited about the story too.
I hope to post it in the "Sneak Peaks" section within the week. I might still add a
Everyday is so Wonderful
I like a lot of songs. In fact I like almost all songs, but if I had to pick a favourite song a permanent favourite, not just a "flavour of the week", it would be Beautiful by Christina Aguilera. I really do feel like everyday is so wonderful.
So I just finished that book that I mentioned in an earlier blog, Outing Yourself. Basically...I thought it was a load of crap. I guess some parts were useful, and interesting, but mostly I just finished it because I'm
***Warning this blog entry is long, rambling, and insanely enthusiastic and cheerful (and a real delight to write). I'll definitely looks like a stupid, ditzy, flammer. So read at your own risk ***
Hey Everyone!
So I know I said I was going to write about something "heavy" and I still intend to, but I just had too awesome of a day today. So Instead I'm going to talk about that!
So first of all I stayed up all night relaxing and reading. Then in the morning Vance got on and we ch
{Paraphrased scene from Friends}
Ross to Susan as he surveys their book collection: "You guys sure have a lot of books about being a lesbian"
Susan: "Yeah, well you have to pass a test or the won't let you do it"
So I was at Barnes & Noble and I realized that my own personal library was completely devoid of books about being gay. So I sauntered (I was going for a gay book after all) over to the Gay Studies section. A long with three other titles (I'm also now the proud owner of Th
So my boss is always talking about how our clients don't buy the product first, they buy us first. It's been a slow week. I guess I just need to get out there and "sell myself".
I guess I shouldn't complain though, I've pretty much been taking it easy. It's hard to get back into the habit of working. Especially when I don't have to (I'm an independent, self-employed agent of the company, so unless I do something actively wrong - I. E. damaging to the company - I won't get fired and can
Everyone's got this part inside of them that is so beyond beautiful if you could only see it. It's like if you truly knew the person, any person, in all their glory you'd be so dazzled, so awe-struck, that you'd never want to let them go, never want to look away, even for a second.
So they finally processed my insurance license and issued it Monday. Thus I've actually been working this week. Well sort of. I'm off to a rather slow start, but I hear that's typical. Still a bit of a downer though. Still I shan't give up! (nor shall I quit using archaic grammer)
Mostly this week I've been struggling to get on some type of schedule that makes more sense. I guess I'm a little bit closer, but I'm just fighting my natural inclinations to stay up until the early morning
So today was good. I had two meetings at work. Anyway my license still isn't in so I'm not actually doing anything (or getting paid before you guys think what a good deal I've got ). Anyway during the meeting my boss mentioned this to everyone so it was kinda fun the whole meeting just stopped and everyone started talking to me telling me how much it sucked, and to hang in there and stuff lol.
So then I came home and read a bit and took a nap, that was fun. I sleep so well! ....lol
No I'm not in love myself, but the guys in this video are:
This Is Love by Jason and Demarco
Check it out, I'm not sure how long that link will work though, right now they have the # 1 video there, but I'm guessing that changes daily or weekly, but you should still be able to find them in the list for a week or so I would think.
I guess as far as love songs go it's fairly generic, but the video is so cute and sweet! It made me giggle in delight several times lol. It's also cool bec
So I got back late yesterday from my trip to visit my family and attend my friend's graduation party. Before I get down to other stuff here's an amusing highlight. I passed this sign on the way that was advertizing a restaurant two hundred and ninety-two miles away! As well as listing a few of the menu highlights they also raved in large print about their "Fabulous Restrooms". It's like, "well lets go there! I know it's like four and a half hours away and we're all hungry and we have to pee
A year and 9 months ago I took him home. He cried the whole way home while his sister lay next to him peacefully resting. Once I'd gotten them inside and let them out of their box he promptly went and hid behind the washer and I barely saw him for the next week. Meanwhile his sister busied herself exploring their new home and encouraging him to come out and join us.
Eventually Timmy settled settled down and while he was still nervous around people he was mostly sane. He'd often get himse
In about three hours it'll be my one year anniversary here at GA. As such I thought now was as good a time as any to compare how things are different now than they were a year ago. Especially how this site has impacted my life.
I'm not sure so much what I want to say. I've typed several paragraphs and deleted each one. I guess what I'd basically like to say is thank you. It's exactly a year ago that I finished reading TLW and joined GA. I used to keep a Livejournal and I've just gone
So first off this story doesn't have a happy ending. In fact I'm thinking this is pretty much something I'll regret forever.
*************************************
So today I decided I'd go out, have some fun. I was thinking, "well I'll go eat at a gay restaruant (there's several of those in Houston), maybe catch a movie, shop a bit (nothing fun, I just need groceries), and maybe drop by a gay bar/club."
So I took a long bath, shaved (everywhere ....well not my head), rubbed lotion e
The last few days I've been pretty blah. I don't know what the deal is; I'm usually a pretty energetic person, but lately all I want to do is sleep. I went to bed freakishly early last night, slept for about 11 hours...and now all I want to do is crawl back in bed, and I've barely been up 2 hours. This is pretty much the same thing I did day before yesterday. Yesterday I forced myself to stay up (well till I went to bed really early), but I was definitely worn down most of the day. I kinda
Hey everyone, so I was thinking maybe you guys might want to see what I actually looked like. So dispite my extreme dislike of just about every picture I've ever taken, here's a few. I also have some Lucky and Timmy (I didn't let them look so I don't know if they like them or not, but I think they're adorable )
I'd just gotten out of the shower in this, thus I'm sure you guys can appeciate why it isn't a full body shot. My hair isn't this colour anymore I had it a little darker in an a
