    Weekly Wrap Up (Jul. 12 - Jul. 18)

    By wildone

    We had an interesting discussion last week with the Weekly Wrap Up. I see the weather has broke in some places and yet others is getting worse 😮  Up here in Canada, it is so hot and dry we are burning up. Over 1000 wildfires going on right now   I wouldn't go camping now unless it was on a river or lake shore.  So back to one of the parts of the camping theme, I mentioned about swimming. So if you never went camping, or you like 5 star service in a hotel or you camped on a lake or you

100 Blogs Later

Hi all,   I thought quite a bit about what I wanted to do for my 100th entry, since, though rationally it's only an artificial milestone and not any more significant than any other blog entry, it's still ostensibly special. Anyway, my thoughts ranged from creating a sort of "blog quiz" that would be taken from the previous 99 entries (decided that would be way too much work for me, and few people would feel inclined to sit there and take the thing anyway) to making it into a silly story (coul

An Honor

I don't even know where to begin. I'm sitting here looking at the announcements, the new URL and the tag next to my name, and I still can't believe it's finally happened. I'm Hosted. When I first found GA, I remember bookmarking the page and thinking to myself that I'd be back. I didin't join the forum because I wasn't sure if I'd fit in or not, then I went away for like 4 months. When I came back, it was because of Dom Luka, the greatest net author of all time, in my opinion. I was reading The

Shoe Whore?

I was talking to Viv the other night and I came out, sorta.   For years I have been maligned by my sisters and labeled with the title of shoe whore. I may still be in denial honestly. I only have around Ten or so pairs of shoes. So yeah the average guy probably only has like four. Does that really qualify me as being a shoe whore? Couldn't I just be above average in that respect, or just happily over achieving? It's not like I have a room dedicated to foot ware, whats a couple of pairs of work

Unbearable

Well today I had enough.....my cousin James has crossed a line that I don't think he can uncross. I actually started this blog entry by saying that I wanted to have him jumped, but I'm not going there right now because I'm so angry with him that I'm afraid I'd go through with it. This moron has his own apartment, but for some reason, he keeps sleeping at home in his old room and I think he's doing it to make me crazy. He has something smart to say about everything I do, and if he doesn't get h

I can sleep now

*props eyes open with toothpicks* I'm going to say this and then I am going to bed.   I FINISHED AN ENTRY FOR THE SPRING ANTHOLOGY!   I had absolutely given up. I really struggled with the theme for various reasons, mostly emotional. Really didn't think I would manage to write ANYTHING. God knows, I had tried. I have about 20 documents in Word that are aborted attempts at that "Endings and Beginnings" topic.   So tonight I said goodnight to Rob, whom I was talking to on MSN, and went

Keys, Rings, and other Things.

I had a fun day off yesterday. I went to the gym with a friend then we had lunch and went shopping. Anyway after the shopping we were heading back to my truck when all of a sudden I realize I don't have my keys. So I turn to her and say "I don't have my keys". After freaking out with me a bit, she checks her pockets and exclaims, "I don't have mine either!".   SO after thinking a bit she decides she must have left hers at the gym, and I conclude that mine are locked in the truck. No wor

April 5th

So my cousin called this evening while I was at work and left a voice mail. Turns out she's going to be in Houston on April 5th because her bestfriend's parents recently moved here and so she's riding with her to go and visit them. Anyway naturally she wants to meet up.   Now my cousin and I were really close as kids. We were sorta like brother and sister (but were both only children). Anyway we've seen less and less of each other as we've gotten older, and particularly in the last four

*sigh*

Forgive me if none of this makes sense because I'm beyond drunk right now. I have played so many games of beer pong that I can't remem ber the number that I've gone through.   Anyway, today was the first time that Iv'e flat out asked a guy if he was gay. It's a long story, but the short version is: he's gay and interested in me (or so the last time I checked which was last night). Well I was very interested in him and we had a date planned for tonight where we were just going to watch a mo

Paint It Black

Today was a pretty good day I suppose. I finally got all my tax troubles sorted out. See it all started over a week ago when I casually decided I'd drop by H&R Block on my way home from something and get my taxes done. I figured it'd be like an hour, standard fee, and I'm good to go...Well...NO! It took two hours and the fee the guy quoted me was outragiously high! We were in fact both in agreement that the fee was inordinately high so he told me to come back tomorrow and in the meantim

This is okay

We went to visit my mother yesterday and she was okay, just a little off center. She actually recognized the wife, something she hasn't done since the episode that put her in the nursing home. Then she said I could sell my house and move into hers since I'm still off work and am having a bit of a financial struggle. I said everything is okay and I don't need to move back to the family home.   Today, my son went up to visit and take the items on her shopping list. She thought he was me. He said

if being a genius is hereditary....

... then that only further proves my point that I *must* know everything! Just kidding   So it's been a while. I've been awfully busy with parent teacher conferences, and report cards. and awards assemblies, and Rich's recovery, and editing for the anthology, and writing for the anthology,and working, and family visiting...   The kids are on spring break for 3 weeks and my son is sick Tony is home this week for spring break and we went to Disneyland yesterday. It was SO busy! Apparentl

Happy 60th Birthday, Elton!

Today marks Elton John's 60th birthday, and he's "still standing" better than he ever did. He is playing a special celebratory concert at Madison Square Garden tonight, which will be streamed live on MSN Music at 8:30 PM. Here is the link in case anyone reads this in time and wants to catch it (although it should be available for at least a few days afterwards for anyone who wants to see it, and there will probably be a DVD, too):   http://music.msn.com/eltonjohn?GT1=7704&   I had a p

Beautiful Boys

The purpose of this entry is to poke fun at the highly superficial behaviour, and fleeting attractions, which often characterizes those who frequent gay dance clubs, while also serving the duel purpose of being a stylistic exercise in writing. The events depicted in this blog entry did indeed occur, but are likely exaggerated as a result of the tenuous position memory holds against fantasy.   They were playing yet another techno version of some forgettable pop-hit as I stepped onto the dancef

What to do

One of the sites I post stories at, storywrite.com, is full of a lot of different authors...not just gay or straight. There's seperate story and poetry sites there, too, and I really enjoy posting there. One of the features of the site that drew me in was the story contests that people can put on. The prizes are points, and after you've built up a certain amount of points, you can have your own contest. I won Silver in one of them and grabbed honorable mention in another. So I figured I'd enter

Is America that stupid?

Voting for Dubya would lead one to believe so ... the fact that Sanjaya is still on "American Idol" is the final proof.   OK ... so I *love* "American Idol" ... I didn't even know what it was until a few months ago, since they didn't show it over in Taiwan. I'm sure it will wear off eventually ... but for now I'm enjoying it. Why? Probably because it gives pathetic people like me the room to dream that "normal" people have a chance at something great. At any rate, the fact that people keep vot
