Prayers for Bobby

Dear Bobby,   I am so sorry for what you went through and the way that you ended your life. I know what it feels like because I was there at one point in my life. I wanted to die and not live anymore because of the way I saw things. It took a strong person and a failed attempt to realize what I had and what I would've lost.   I look back on it today and see how much my life has changed since then. While I still deal with some of the things that caused me to go deep into my depression, I look

The rumblings of an overworked mind

Here I am... lying in my bed trying to figure out things that I've been thinking about for the past few days. Be aware... for they may seem a bit weird and or shocking:   1. I need to loose 30lbs. How did I come to this number? Well... since the only thing that's grown on me besides my weight and my gut, I want to return back to my old weight of 165. Don't worry... i'm doing this the healthy way and the safe way. No diet pills or junk like that, just good old fashioned hard work (even though i

Follow Up

Well... last night me and matt talked a little bit more about our engagement, among other things and decided a few courses of action:   1. We were gonna wait until I move out of my house and into my own place before making it offical (due to the facts my parents would probably flip out and attempt to make my life a living hell)   2. Matt is gonna talk to his parents about what we're gonna do. He said that there is no worry, his parents are very open minded   3. Me and matt are going to sta

Good News Everybody!

Well, something happened over the past few days that I never would've imagined happening to me.   It started New Years Eve/Day where I got a little drunk on tequila (hush you Steve!!!) and let slip to not only my friends, but to Matt that, at the time, I think he was my soulmate, the one for me. I ended up drinking a little to much and he ended up taking care of me.   The next day, we talked a little more about what I said to him the previous night and we both agreed that we felt the same wa

This TIme Imperfect

Well... my mom dropped a bombshell on me today... she told me that my dad, her and my sister are planning on moving out to PA by the end of the year at the earliest and by next summer at the latest. This comes as a shock to me because I thought they were planning on moving out there in 2 years.   Now, normally I'm one to make fun of NJ first, but recently (ok, 4 months or so ago) I found a reason to stay out here and suffer through living in NJ. Matt. I wanna stay out here and be with him, but

Kyle

I stumbled across this when I was at AwesomeDude and it really moved me... so I thought I would share it with everyone and see what they think...   One day, when I was a freshman in high school, I saw a kid from my class was walking home from school. His name was Kyle. It looked like he was carrying all of his books. I thought to myself, 'Why would anyone bring home all his books on a Friday? He must really be a nerd.'   I had quite a weekend planned (parties and a football game with my frie

Author Time!

Well... this is it. Yesterday was my last final in school and while I didn't do as well as I hoped I would, I still managed to do the best I could. What does this mean for you, you might be wondering, well, it means that I'll have more time to write and chat and such.   I'm going to do a massive overhaul of my already published stories and hopefully finish up Lost in Pain. I know that I've said I would work on it but school kinda got in the way. Another thing... being in the hospital for six d

I'm Back!

Well everyone... reports of my demise have been greatly exaggerated....   I was in the hospital for six days because of a double whammy... turns out that Zithromax (an antibiotic) and the medicine I take for my anxiety just don't get along to well... and on top of that... i'm allergic to it! Pretty much they kept me in the hospital for 6 days for observation and it wasn't fun. I didn't have my phone or my laptop so there was no way for me to connect to the world :wacko:   All in all... i'm

Looking for an editor among other things

So time has come that I'm working on a serial that I definitely need an editor for (if my other works prove it). If anyone is interested in editing for me... please PLEASE let me know via PM!   So as I may not get stuck down my GA's spoiler killer I'll let you know about the story and such if you ask. It's going to be a decent series (I think) and each chapter averages between 4,500 and 5,000 words.   In other news... everything is going swimmingly and couldn't be better (for the most part).

It has been quite a while

I always seem to forget about this blog. I get myself tied up working on something or another and don't come back for months at a time. So, since my last entry. I have moved into my new townhouse and started a new job. My new company is still going balls to the wall, despite the slowing economy. They are holding back from hiring many more people to try to insulate from issues in the future.   I'm personally very busy.   As for the site, we have been doing a lot behind the scenes and som

Yayness!

So. Yesterday was amazing. I got to see Kevin Smith (if you don't know who he is, shame on you!). He's one of my favorite celebrities/directors/producers/etc.   It was so neat to do a Q&A with him and trust me, it lasted a good 4.5 hours, and there was never a dull moment. He talked about everything from his experiences directing, to stories about his personal life, to breaking a toilet while he went number 2.   Needless to say I loved it!!!   In other news, I've decided that I'm long

The Drop Occured... but all is better

Well, the drop occurred.   Out of all the managers i've ever had, my all time favorite one quit without any notice. She was pretty cool and i'm gonna miss her something fierce.   That's not to say that i'm depressed from it... i'm disappointed but I know that things like this happen and it's of no fault of my own.   Needless to say, I'm also having quite a bit of fun training the new manager that we have. He's pretty cool, though in a different way.   On a personal level, Matt and I have

The Drop

When life has always thrown curveballs at you, don't you begin to accept them? What I mean is, when good things start to happen, don't you (after getting it all the time) wait for the impending thud of the shoe dropping and something bad going on?   That's how I feel right now. I have a good job, I have a loving boyfriend and I'm finally doing well in school, but I hate to say that I'm just waiting for something bad to happen. I've gotten so used to life getting me down that it's weird when it

Crash and Burn followed by Yummy Food :)

Sunday pretty much sucked big time when I accidentally deleted a partition on my laptop containing all of my music and videos (ARGH!!!!) and spent most of the day re-downloading the music that I lost (and I'll work on videos at a different time).   But as abysmal as that was on Sunday, yesterday was incredible. I hung out with Matt after I got out of class and we watched TV and talked about everything at his place. Once dinner time came around, we went to the Cheesecake Factory and the food wa

Conflict

If the entire world made sense, what fun would it be? The whole mystery of life is built around the fact that there are questions in life that make us think and exercise our brains and reasoning abilities. For example, would you want to live in a world where there was nothing out of the ordinary? Nothing to figure out, nothing to make you think about something? What if we all wore the same clothes, listened to the same music and thought the same way about thing? It would get old fast huh?

Gay Men and Blood Donations

Ok. One of my favorite pastimes when i'm bored at work is to watch Queer as Folk, among other things. I watched an episode today that kind of reminded me about an experience that I think is not only important, but I feel strongly.   Being able to donate my blood to a blood bank.   I did some research and found that the ban comes from a 1983 ban on gay men donating blood because of an HIV risk. To me, this is understandable especially given the fear and the lack of proper testing at the time.

T.S. Hanna

It's wet. That's all I gotta say. It's WET!   Tropical Storm Hanna made landfall today south of me, but I can tell you that right now, I'm feelin the weather, and the rain (my commute to work is gonna SUCK!) and the wetness. As I'm writing this, I've learned that not only am I under a flood watch, but a tropical storm warning ACK!   Needless to say I will be at work tomorrow, and shellin out the extra cash to take a cab there and back (i'm not waiting outside in this weather for the train!).

Arguments

It's a proven fact that most parents care for their kids and want to see them succeed and be happy. With me, that's no different then the way my parents act. We had a discussion today that lead into an argument about my life both present and future and while I was pissed at them for the way they carried out the argument, I can say that I'm glad (in a way) that they did. We talked about how I wanted to ultimately be a social worker and they both told me that it was going to be a hard choice to m

Why don't I condone drug use?

The title says it all about the message of this blog. Why don't I condone drug use? Because its an escapist route to hide form the problems that are bothering you consciously or subconsciously.   I gave a little story in the soapbox on why I don't do drugs anymore (with the exception of smoking, yes i started again). My reason is that I tried to hide from many issues that I was facing at the time. Whenever I was clubbing, I always had a drink in my hand and it took me not drinking one night at

A thought....

Have you ever listened to a cd or a radio station where a song comes on and your met with an onslaught of emotions and memories? Well, with me it does, and i'm pretty sure it does with you as well. It doesn't even have to be a certain song, but an album or a genre. With me, to give you one example, I can listen to Hung Up by Madonna and remember back to the first club I went to, Stonewall in Allentown PA, and remember the first guy I kissed there while this song was playing.

A small town with a big promise

Today is like most days in Red Bank. It's filled with tourists, locals, and the eye candy. Needless to say, I love it. Red Bank is like most small towns in America, but to me, it's starting to become my second home. Not only do I work here, but it where I come to relax and to shop when the mood strikes me. If you wander down Broad Street, the main stretch, you're greeted by little boutiques, Starbucks, a few pubs and sports bars, and lots of nice little restaurants. At night, there's something
