Happy Birthday Green ...I'll never forget you.
-
whoo hoo!!! I just got off the phone with my grandpa and he told me that he wanted to do something special for me this summer since it's going to be my last summer vacation in high school. I halfway jokingly mentioned that I wanted to go to Greece and visit the island of Ikaria (that's where our family's from) and he was all, "Okay!" So I talked to my dad and he said it was okay, so it looks like I'll be Greece bound this summer. :icon1: The only thing that I need to worry about now is a long flight over the Atlantic and updating my wardrobe. So anyway, yeah, I'm ultra excited right now.

Maybe it's a side effect of heavy THC exposure, or maybe my bf Taylor is just a moron, but just when I think he can't say anything stupider than he already has, he proves me wrong. Here's what happened..... We have a friend Suzie who got pregnant last year and had a baby over the summer. We didn't really like the guy that got her pregnant, but nobody ever said anything bad about him to her. I think he was kinda controlling, but no one else seemed to pick up on that. For the most part, we just all thought he was a loser and that he would hurt her. Well, it turns out we were right. Last weekend, he called her and said he never wanted to see her or the baby again It pissed us all off, and we've been there for her as much as we could. She has a pretty rocky relationship with her folks because of the baby and because of the prick that got her pregnant in the first place, and the last week has been a nightmare for her. So we've all been doing as much as we can to support her. So today me and my cousin James went to the mall in Norfolk and Taylor met us there later on. We were eating in the food court and talking about Suzie and the baby when Taylor gave us his amazing theory about the baby, Suzie and her ex bf. Hold on now, because this is where it gets really dumb. According to Taylor, it's obvious that he (the prick) was probably cheating on her the whole time, and because of that, she should get a test done to be sure that the baby is really hers and not some other girl's that he might have slept with while they were together. I'm not f**king kidding. At first I thought he was joking and I was laughing, but he looked at me like I was crazy. James and I actually had to explain to him why his theory was f**ked, and I still wonder how much he understood. I thought that maybe he had smoked a joint or something before he met up with us, but he drove straight from church so that was pretty impossible. Besides, it's easy to tell when he's blazed and when he's not. So yeah, that's been the highlight of an otherwise boring day and I decided to share with everyone. To my readers, I'd like to appologize for not releasing chapter ten of If By Chance this week. I messed around and spent time relaxing and being alone with my friends and family, and I got my car back this week from the body shop. So I've just been trying to chillaxicate until I go back to school on Wednesday. Anyway, I promise to get busy on my stories and get something in soon....really soon. So Happy New Year to everyone and I'll catch you in the cut.

Modesto of my dreams
NickolasJames8 commented on CarlHoliday's blog entry in Melancholy ... the broken staff of life
Yay!! Modesto is where all of my memories from when I was little are. I was either one or two when we moved there, and we lived there till 1999. I still miss it sometimes -
Happy Birthday Jack

Does it say, The End????

If you're reading a story on efiction, the heading will usually tell you if a story is finished or not (if the author updates the setting). As far as hosted authors, I don't think there's anything in place like that. I personally list all of my work as completed or in progress in a content block in my blog, but I don't know about other authors.

omg...I LOVE his vids and songs. Not to mention the fact that he's sooo cute. I pretty much have all of his vids favorited on Youtube

Lately I've been thinking a lot about what I want to accomplish as a writer in the year 2008, and I'm pretty sure I have it all figured out. In no particular order, here are my priorities: Re-write Bodega Bay and remove all of the graphic sex scenes Write a second volume of Time In A Bottle, from a different point of view Clean up all of my stories as far as spelling, grammer and pucuation goes Release a new series of short stories with one central theme Finish my work on If By Chance and concentrate soley on completing What's The Difference Between Me and You?, or scrapping What's The Difference altogether because I get embarrased when I look at how poorly the first several chapters are written To be honest, besides the series of Shorts and the second volume of Time In A Bottle, I don't have any big plans for 2008. Of course, plans develop and change with time, so who knows? Merry Christmas Everyone

Happy Birthday Jan

After three miserable days of having the flu, all I can say is this: Sausage Mc Griddles are a dollar and I have ten dollars. If I include sales tax, I think I can afford at least 9 of them....hmmm, I wonder if I have any loose change in my car.

He doesn't

I'll keep you in my thoughts and prayers, Francios.

So it's after 3 in the morning and I'm supposed to be asleep but I feel like I just woke up or something. I have too many thoughts swirling around in my head, mainly random crap that I've been stewing over. None of it's relevant, but what the hell?? I think I'm gonna try to stop smoking weed again. I've tried so many times before, but everytime I stop, I get crazy and blow up at people around me. I went all day Saturday without getting high, but I was past irritated with everyone for no reason. We drove to Florida for the day on Saturday. Actually, I should say that we went to Florida for the afternoon and a good part of the evening. Then we drove back to Virginia and I was in a pissy mood about it the whole time. In the meanwhile I'm about to get either a low C or a high D in math. Considering that the lowest grade I've ever gotten was a B in conversational spanish when I was in 7th grade, I don't even know what to say or do. Quadradics and parabolas and variables have been swirling in my head, but they aren't making any sense to me. I guess I've brought most of this onto myself, though. I was sure I was ready for this, and I felt like I could handle a job and school. Now I need a tutor but if I get one, I can't work. If I can't work, I can't make my car payment and pay for my insurance and gas. My dad already told me that if I don't work I can't keep my car, so I'm pretty much screwed. Add to that the fact that I was pulled over for speeding two weeks ago while I was cutting 6th period math and it's easy to see why I'm so f**ked right now. I haven't really done much writing lately because I've been trying to keep a handle on my life. It seems like everything's coming at me at 100 miles an hour. Me and Taylor are barely hanging on as a couple anymore because we don't spend time alone anymore, but finding time for ourselves is hard. I guess another thing that's been bugging me lately is a rumor that's been going around about me that I didn't know about. I won't address it here, mainly because it's not true, but I feel stupid because I've spent the last year not knowing what people were saying. Finally someone emailed me with a link, and I couldn't believe what I read. I think the most dissapointing part about it is the fact that no one even bothered to confront me or ask me themselves if it was true. Someone I thought was my friend said some very nasty things about me that weren't true. Some of them he knows are lies, others he probably thinks are the truth. Either way, I feel like he should have confronted me about what he heard. Oh, well. Sometimes it's easy to forget that this is the internet and that none of the crap that happens online is supposed to matter. I have too many problems in my regular life to sweat what goes on in someone's blog or in a chatroom. That doesn't mean that I don't think about it, though. So I'm at a crossroad right now. I'm either going to go lay back down in my bed and stare at the ceiling, or I'm going to take this joint I rolled down to the garage and smoke it. I really want to go to sleep, but I'm not tired. On the other hand, there's a part of me that wants to flush the joint and do some sit ups or something else to burn my energy off.

Happy Birthday Colin

I'd to thank Seth McFarland for creating Family Guy, and FOX for airing it every Sunday night. I'd also like to thank Peter Griffin, Lois Griffin, Stewie Griffin, Brian Griffin, Cleavland, Quaqmire, Joe, Bonnie, Herbert, Mort, Pawtucket Patriot Beer and Adam West. But not you, Meg.

Ok, so maybe not in all of them. But to be truthful, I'm not uptight about it either way. If I'm working on something that doesn't need a sex scene, I'm not going to throw one in. On the other hand, if I'm working on a chapter and I stop and think to myself, You know, these two characters need to get laid, then it's on. The only limit I have is that I'll never, and I do mean never, include scenes between men or women and boys or girls. I'm not judging anyone that wants to read something like that, but the whole Chester The Molester thing creeps me out. Well, I do have a story where the main character was molested by an older man (his mom's bf), but that wasn't graphically described or anything. Later on in the same story, he remembers being molested by a teacher as well, but again, it wasn't graphic. Also, both scenes played impoortant roles in the major plot, so I kinda had to include them(or change the plot). So anyway, if you happen to be reading one of my stories and wondering where the sex is, just click on a different link You're sure to find something. On the other hand, if you're reading a story and thinking to yourself that the sex scenes are too much, just click a different link You're sure to find something, too. I'm versatile like that

Hey CoLeYy, If you want to read Codey's stories, you can go to Codeysworld.com. As far as I know, the site's going to stay up.
-
I thought I had accepted that this was coming, but to be honest, I can't believe it. Codey was a very talented writer and poet, and a very sweet person. I'm glad I was able to join Codey's World when it was in its earliest stages because I had a chance to read his work and to show him mine. Of course, it's too late for me to tell Codey how much I appreciate being allowed to be a member of his site, but I still want to say it. Thank You Codey. Rest in peace my friend.

It's not about being an anti gay church. There are probably hundreds of thousands of those in the US and millions all over the world. It's about what they do to families trying to say goodbye to their loved ones. Would you want some group of crazies protesting at your loved one's funeral, holding up signs that say they're burning in hell or thanking God for ending their lives?

Reading stories about Fred Phelps and his church makes me physically ill. He has no respect for human life, and he has no respect for the word of God. I truly believe in my heart that he and his family/church members are facing an eternity in Hell for bearing false witness. I also believe that ruining someone's final moment with a loved one ought to be a crime, but again, he'll pay for his actions in Hell. It's funny, but this might be the one issue that unites the left and right wingers of not only this nation, but around the world. Personally, I think that with his stated support for IEDs, the department of Homeland Security and the FBI ought to be investigating the finances of this "church." Who knows if their hatred goes far enough for them to help finance some of the insurgency in Iraq. I'm not saying it's true, but it's definitely worth looking into.

He's pretty awesome!

For those of you who don't know, Codey of Codey's World was taken to the hospital early Friday morning and is currently in the critical care unit. If you pray, please say a prayer for Codey. If not, at least keep him in your thoughts. I first joined Codey's World about a year ago, and Codey and Blue (Adblue) have always been good to me. _______________________________________________________________________________ In other news, I was making really great prgress on chapter eight of If By Chance, but I've had a hectic week and had to put it on hold. I'll send chapter seven in soon, even if I don't get chapter eight finished today. I usually like to be a chapter ahead, but I won't keep you guys waiting if I don't. I've been thinking about re-writing Bodega Bay, too. I don't think I have any regrets about that story, but if I did, it would be that I added sex scenes in that story. There are some stories that sex belongs in, like Staking My Claim and My Jump Off, but I feel like I cheated my readers by having so much sex in Bodega Bay. I'm not saying that Kevin won't have sex, but I don't want the scenes to be graphic. So anyway, the sun is shining today, and I'm going out to enjoy it.
