He is incredibly hot. What's his name? Kyle Schmid is the name of the actor in my previous post. He is delicious.

6, but there are always two of us in the bed (3 if you count my sneaky son)

Zerophilia - I just watched it and its great. More bisexual than gay themed - but great nonetheless. Also, it just made me discover Kyle Schmid. Probably the hottest guy I have seen in a while.

This guy is WAY too hot not to include. Travis, maybe?

Way back, almost a year ago, when I first joined GA and read everything you had written in 2 days (on top of work and my family), I asked if you were going to go back to writing Dreams and Clipped Wings. This is not a direct quote, but I believe you answered yes. Any chance that's close to happening in the near future?

Sucks, but it doesn't have to happen everywhere. We had two openly gay lacrosse players on the men's team when I was in high school and that was more than ten years ago. They said they did get teased, but no more than any other team member. Sometimes it was about their sexuality, but never to the point they felt singled out. We had many conversations about it and, for the most part, the guys on the team were supportive. In college, pretty much every team had gay members in both the mens and womens leagues. To be fair though, I went to UMaine, Farmington which happens to have an extremely open and tolerant community that its known for. I am not, by any means, saying it doesn't happen, but there are cases out there where it is getting better.

Lacey, I like your shirt! Where did you get it? I also like the hair. Please don't do Bieber!

I was reading something with a fantastic line, which also happened to be a cliffhanger, of which I can't even begin to hope the author might be posting its resolution anytime soon. It made me want to read ITFB again. Since its 1 am and I have to get up at 6am to work with 3, 4, and 5 years olds, I only read the last two chapters. Until the end of WT is posted, this is definitely my FAVORITE Dom story, despite the lack of descriptive intimacies. It works for this story and I don't wish to see it change. HOWEVER, wouldn't it be lovely to see a sequel or a short story with a little more "imagery" involving Dennis and Travis?

If you don't want to wait until he finishes it (there are 11 chapters), pay the $8 for one month so you can read what is in the premium section. Then, you can decide if you want to renew again and you will be supporting the site at the same time!

Haha! I have been praying for snow in Colorado since Dom disappeared in a pile of landscaping in April!

As a straight woman, I can tell you that I have no interest in reading f/f stories. I saw the reccomended story and I think I will try it just so that I can open my mind a bit. Even discounting the sex, which I wouldn't be interested in, I am not sure I care about the romanticism either. Whereas, the thought of two guys making love and behaving romantically is a huge turn on. Reading the emotions GA authors frequently elicit between characters brings me back for more. However, I do think someone could post a story about lesbians here, but they would probably, though not definitely, be hard-pressed to develop a big following. Most people aren't going to riot or protest the presence of something "different" here. Hopefully.

You know what would make you even smarter? Completing Perks before you start college when you really won't have time to finish it.... But, no really, I do think that there are a lot of people out there who aren't reaching their potential. It takes a lot of time to be well read enough to make points and argue with the brightest minds out there. I find myself taking time to answer questions and researching my responses, especially in the soapbox where things get so heated. Here, I hope, people feel comfortable putting their opinions out there and have confidence in their ability to defend their viewpoint. Besides, taking the time gives my coco puffs a chance to make chocolate milk. The best part of the whole meal.

Its just nice to hear from you. Good luck with the rest of your summer. Use what little time you have to yourself to rest and then come back to us in the fall! We'll be waiting!

It was in the upper 80s today with no wind, but there wasn't much humidity. Still spent the day at the lake because in Maine, that's hot!

Isn't it winter out there, yet?

Tomorrow is steamers and lobsters straight off the boat (I am from ME after all.) I am making pasta salad as well. Sunday is pizza (we'll be beachin' it in Ogunquit all day - no time to grill!). Monday is venison steaks (yuck) for the boys and grilled chicken shish-ka-bobs for the girls. This will include marinated portabello mushrooms for all. YUM-O!

SO EXCITED! I went to see Eclipse at midnight and squealed like a teenager when the premiere came on the big screen.

My husband is a spruce and I am a hot redhead. Unfortunately, I can't get my picture to post.

That was hilarious and sincerely hope with all my might that it actually happened and that the gay man it happened to was in a place with so many people to support him. I am also very sorry it didn't happen at a party I was at so that I could laugh as well.

Its going to be 48 tonight and 72 tomorrow. Beautiful, if we could have gotten rid of the total washout that was the weekend!

GRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!! I need me some Milo and Nels nookie on a boat!

Jacob all the way. I like the aggressiveness and underlying sensitivity.
