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:

We are D-EVO!

OK we've all seen this picture but George's ears make chimp jokes passe'.   Let's take a look at the major candidates and other in the news side by side with their closest biological relatives...     Here is Phred Phelps and a baboon. Can you tell which is which?     Here is Phred again and an baboon... which looks more evil?

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

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

Updates, and old crushes

Updates updates updates...   Wonky eared bastard from previous post. He's still annoying and still around, but I'll have my moment of retribution yet. he came in with his boss over the weekend and tried sneakery to change things. I hate when vendors do that, absolutely hate it.   Classes are going good, the winter inter-session concludes this Thursday. Taking a sixteen week course in six weeks has been interesting, stressful, but interesting. I dunno I thought it would be cake, turns out

Where to start

I decided to start my blog tonight. There's not much going on here. I just finished a block of my classes which means that I am starting two new classes, Cultural Diversity and Environmental Science. I already have a problem with Cultural Diversity. I realize that there are other groups with struggles in the past and present, but nothing in the syllabus suggests that this course discusses the GLBT community at all. I do not like that at all.   In other news, I'm still working on Chapter 10 o

The Rantings of an Over Worked Writer

It's hot, my muses have deserted me and a plot bunny has firm hold of my butt....Life sucks.... Good thing is that I'm just about done with a ficlet collection that I started last year sometime. Its a fanfiction ficlet collection, but rather fun to write. Even if the last three are making me slam my head against my desk top several times in fustration. They just won't come out right!! Another good thing is that I'm also getting the first draft of my Anthology submission written out...yay me...

Felt Like Sharing

A good friend of mine introduced this to me a while back. Every now and then I kinda stumble back across it cleaning my room/computer/journal/whatever and it makes me feel a lot better and kinda puts me back on the right track. I'm not much for prayer, but I do like good advice. Anyway, you can wiki this if you wanna know more about it, but it's entitled "Desiderata", translating from Latin to "desired things" in English. My favorite line is in bold: "With all its sham, drudgery, and broken

In need of a Beta reader

I have my anthology story completed. Which is little wonder, since it is more or less an edited version of a story I wrote two years ago. But I think I'd like the advice of someone else on this one, so I thought I'd put the call out there.   In other news, I am all better. Therefore, I have probably already caught the virus that cause my next round of illness. Also, I am up at 6 am. Make that, I am still up at 6.

If you are against Homophobia

something that I found on Damien1905's journal on Deviant Art. It's something that I've seen all over the next, with various lines. Some have been repeated, but that's not my fault, since I got this list from two different places. THERE IS MENTION OF DEATH AND ABUSE. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED.     I am the girl kicked out of her home because I confided in my mother that I am a lesbian. I am the prostitute working the streets because nobody will hire a transsexual woman. I am the sister who hold

My time so far...

So far, I like it here. The people are much more friendly than other forums and actually answer you. I rather like the change of pace. This blog, besides other parts, will be a good place to find out what I'm working on, and what has been posted.
