    Homophobia

    By NickolasJames8,

    Whether you are homosexual or not, you should repost this in support of your friends and loved ones who are. Love is not defined by color, creed, or gender.
     
    I am the mother who is not allowed to even visit the children I bore, nursed, and raised. The court says I am an unfit mother because I now live with another woman.
     
    I am the boy who never finished high school, because I got called a fag everyday
     
    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 holds her gay brother tight through the painful, tear-filled nights.
     
    We are the parents who buried our daughter long before her time.
     
    I am the man who died alone in the hospital because they would not let my partner of twenty-seven years into the room.
     
    I am the foster child who wakes up with nightmares of being taken away from the two fathers who are the only loving family I have ever had. I wish they could adopt me.
     
    I am not one of the lucky ones. I killed myself just weeks before graduating high school. It was simply too much to bear.
     
    We are the couple who had the realtor hang up on us when she found out we wanted to rent a one-bedroom for two men.
     
    I am the person who never knows which bathroom I should use if I want to avoid getting the management called on me.
     
    I am the domestic-violence survivor who found the support system grow suddenly cold and distant when they found out my abusive partner is also a woman.
     
    I am the domestic-violence survivor who has no support system to turn to because I am male.
     
    I am the father who has never hugged his son because I grew up afraid to show affection to other men.

    I am the woman who died when the EMTs stopped treating me as soon as they realized I was transsexual.
     
    I am the person who feels guilty because I think I could be a much better person if I didnt have to always deal with society hating me.
     
    I am the man who stopped attending church, not because I don't believe, but because they closed their doors to my kind.
     
    I am a warrior for my country serving proud, but can't be my true self because gays aren't allowed in the military.
     
    I am the person who has to hide what this world needs most, love.
    ..LiKE THIS..PEOPLE ARE iGNORANT .
     
     
    I am the person ashamed to tell my own friends I'm a lesbian, because they constantly make fun of them.
     
    I am the boy tied to a fence, beaten to a bloody pulp and left to die because two straight men wanted to "teach me a lesson."
     
     
    This is the boy, Matthew Shepard. On October 7, 1998 Aaron McKinney and Russell Henderson lead him to a remote area east of Laramie where they demonstrated unimaginable acts of hate. Matthew was tied to a split-rail fence where he was beaten and left to die in the cold of the night. Almost 18 hours later he was found by a cyclist who initially mistook him for a scarecrow. Matthew died on October 12 at 12:53 am at a hospital in Fort Collins, Colorado. KILLED BECAUSE HE WAS GAY!!!

    Who cares?

    By NickolasJames8,

    Me and Taylor went to Hampton tonight with my dad and my stepmom and walked to raise money for research for Kidney Disease. I'm doing it again next week in Portsmouth. The week after that, I'll be in Norfolk at Harbor Park walking for breast cancer research.
    It's kinda weird, because after all this time, after having four tumors taken out, finding a hole in my heart and basically spending more time in the hospital in the last few years than most people do in their lifetimes, I know that there's something I can do. There are always going to be sick people. There's nothing we can do about it. We're human, so we get human diseases.
    I feel like I've been really lucky, though. I'm still breathing, my heart is still beating, I have two arms and two legs and I can walk. Some people might say that I suffer from brain damage , but that's the worst of it.
    When I was in CHKD the last time, I saw a little kid who lost all of his hair. His face was swollen and one of his eyes was closed. It sucked, because I could tell that he was fighting for his life. I have no idea how he is, or if he's even alive today. I hope he is, and I hope he's cancer free.
    I guess the thing I'm trying to say is, I have no right not to do something. We live in a world where anything can happen, and any of us could be stricken with a horrible disease. What was it that made that kid get so sick, but gave me a pass? Why not me?
    I know I'm babbling on, and this isn't exactly a cheery post. But I guess it's not supposed to be.
    I have an appointment on Monday with my hemotologist. It's just a follow up, but my dad wants to make sure he looks at the bruise I got on my shin. I think he's being silly, but I know deep down that it's because he cares. Me and my stepmom just roll our eyes at him when he acts like this, and he gets all pushed out of shape.
    One of the best things about tonight wasn't about walking for a good cause. I think one of the best things about tonight was getting to spend some time with my dad and not fighting with him. We didn't argue about my hair, or about cutting my hours at work. We just walked and talked about normal, everyday things. Like how the Cowboys almost lost to the Bills on Monday. And about rebuilding our deck in the back yard. Of course, Taylor and my stepmom talked about Days of our lives the whole time. He's such a woman.
    So anyway, the walk didn't end until nine. Then it was a nightmare getting out of the parking lot we were in because about a zillion other people were trying to go out the same way we were. :pickaxe: :pickaxe: Once we got out of there, we sat in tunnel traffic for another fifteen minutes. :nuke: :nuke: So maybe next week we'll look for a better place to park.
    So yeah. I know this post doesn't make a lot of sense, but who cares?

    On All Fours

    By NickolasJames8,

    Ok, so some of you may or may not know that I don't work as a bagger anymore. I got a job at the golf course. At first I was washing golf carts and bringing them around to the club house, but then one day I wandered into the shop and started messing around with some of the carts that weren't working. Well, one thing led to another, and now I work on the carts instead of washing them, and I make way more money doing it.
    So anyway, we have a catwalk in the shop that we use to get to the things that hang really high, like hoses and rolls of wire. This afternoon I was climbing up the ladder/steps thingy that we have to climb to get up onto the catwalk, and right as I was about to step onto the platform, I slipped and banged my shin on the surface. As if that wasn't bad enough, I kept going down, to the top step, where my shin hit, then the next step, where my shin hit again, then the bottom step, where it landed one last time.
    By the time I was done falling, I had landed on my hands and knees. My hands were stinging, my shin was burning from the pain and I was wondering it I had broken a knee cap. But the most important thing on my mind was whether or not anyone was watching me fall. Luckily, no one saw, so I got up and hopped around on one foot for a minute, then I walked it off.
    I think I would have been sooooo humiliated if anyone had seen me fall like that. It probably would have looked really dumb, like the time I saw a guy pedaling really hard on his bike as we were driving passed him, and his feet slipped off the pedals. I'm sure it wasn't too funny to him, but I was sure laughing my ass off.
    Maybe this was karma's way of telling me not to laugh at other people. Or maybe it was the catwalk telling me to watch my step when I'm climbing up the steps.

    Over The Line

    By NickolasJames8,

    Something happened today, and it all happened so fast that I still don't think I've had enough time to process it all. Maybe that's why I held my tongue, even though I really wanted to do something.
     
    One of my teachers announced that she was diagnosed with breast cancer on Tuesday, and that she has to have major surgery to find out if it's spread. She had enough respect for us to tell us what was going on, and then she admitted that she was terrified. My heart was just breaking for her, but then something happened...
     
    Some moron, who always says something stupid and makes a scene, said something really mean to her. When I say it was mean, I mean it was f**kED UP. I try hard not to use foul language on my blog, but that's what it was. I just wanted to get up and stick my fist in his mouth and my foot in his pussy.
     
    That was this morning. I haven't been able to get it out of my mind all day. I keep going back to how awful I felt for her and how much respect I have for her. Not just as a teacher, but as a woman who's about to face something that's already changed her life. I just wonder what's going to happen, and I hope that whatever it is, she never loses hope.
     
    But at the same time, I can't help but think about the retarded prick who basically told her there was no hope, and he did it in the meanest way possible. I know I have no right to judge anyone, but I don't understand how someone could have so much hatred in their heart that they could be so cruel. I know he has beef with her, but come on.
     
    There's something inside of me that wants to do something. But there's another part of me that says not to because he's going to wish he hadn't said what he did someday. I just hope that it isn't because he or someone in his family gets cancer, or something worse. I hope that it happens after he's had time to think about what he said and how he probably made her feel. I know how I felt, and I know how angry everyone else in class was with him.
     
    I guess I'm really upset because I have this idea in my head that people should know better. I'd be so ashamed of myself for even thinking what he said. It was so vile and so hateful that I don't even want to repeat it here on my blog. Not that he would ever read it, but still.
     
    So anyway, I just needed to vent.

    Strange Magic

    By NickolasJames8,

    I really don't know where to begin on this entry. I have something I want to say, but I really don't have any idea HOW to say what's on my mind. Ironically, that's kinda what this entry's about. Expressing myself.
     
    I got a really nice PM this morning from someone who read my tagline and got worried. Not the one that says, Check out my new story, If by Chance!! No, the one that said, How Will I Die?
     
    I guess that the first line in my signature also worried him. No, not the one that says Dr. Wolfgang Von Bushwick. The one that said, No one seems to care about my welfare. It's like my life's already ending.
     
    For the record, I've never, ever contemplated suicide. I think that there's always a reason to lift my head from my pillow each day, even when it feels like God is putting me through drama. I know it's only to make me a better Christian and that he's using me for His will.
     
    So what was up with the sig and the tag line?
     
    Not much, really. I was just looking for a way to express my angst, I think. I almost always use lyrics or quotes in my signature, and last time was no different. I was listening to a CD, and maybe I should have left it alone, because it really started to affect my mood. I was getting depressed, and with what Taylor and I have been going through, it was easy for me to get stuck in a mode and drive around with a dark cloud over me.
     
    So I took the CD out today and was looking for something else to listen to, then I decided to raid my parents' CD collection. I found a CD that must be like 30 years old (literally) and put it in by a group called ELO. Anyway, I found a song called Strange Magic and I really really like it a lot. It's making me think about my life and what I'm doing now and the way things were a long time ago and how they arent that way anymore.
     
    I barely even talk to my dad anymore and me and Taylor are kinda on again/off again boyfriends. I've thought about seeing someone else but we tried that before and it was hell for both of us. I don't want us to be broken up but right now it's like I don't even know him anymore. All he wants to do is smoke pot and get f**ked up and I hate it. I mean, don't get me wrong. I'm not perfect, but I'm not spending my life that way.
     
    Plus, he's really pissed at me because he says I sicked all of our friends and my dad on him about dropping out of school. I mean, he still can't get over it, as if I was supposed to just respect what he wanted to do. IF it were a decision like quitting football or something, I wouldn't have said a word. But this is way too important, and I don't care if he thinks I'm being a bitch.
     
    I don't know if things are ever going to be right between my dad and I. Between the two of us, we seem to have a lot of stored up anger and all we can do is say hurtful thigns to each other. He tells me how rude I am that I don't care about anyone but myself, and he threatens to ground me for not cutting my hair, which seems silly, but for some reason, it hurts coming from my dad.
     
    Probably because I know that it isn't about my hair or even about me being "rude." I think it's more or less related to the fact that I work and make sure he gets 220 dollars a month from me for my car payment and my insurance. I really get mad about him doing everything for my cousin and nothing for me. I mean, if he wants me to pay for my own car, I don't mind. I'd rather do that than see him have a lot of bills to pay all by himself. But he should make my cousin do the same thing. That's all I'm pissed about. It's like we're not equal in his eyes.
     
    So, I think it's related to that, but I get the feeling that it might be something else. Maybe it's because I'm gay. I've never asked him because I'm terrified of what he'll say. He was my rock when I came out of the closet, and I don't know what I would have done if he hadn't been there to hold my hand through it all. But there's a little piece of me that worries about him having second thoughts. I think my heart would stop beathing if I ever found out that the reason he's gotten so distant from me is because he finally realizes that I really am gay, and that no matter what, nothing's going to change about that.

    Blah

    By NickolasJames8,

    I came home sick today My stepmom tried to keep me home from school to begin with but I didn't listen, and now I wish I had. Anyway, I keep thinking I'm gonna puke but when I try, nothing comes out but this nasty yellow crap that burns my throat.
    So what's the moral of all of this??
    I think it's Stay Away From 7-11 Big Bites. I ate two last night because my dad and stepmom went somewhere and James and I had to fend for ourselves. He wound up going to 7-11 because he wanted nachos and I asked him to get me a big bite. Well, there's some deal when you buy two, so that's what he did and I was really really hungry, so I ate them both. But I haven't felt good since the middle of last night, and I think I might have gotten food poisoning or something. Yay me

    You Scored an A
     

     
    You got 10/10 questions correct.
     
    It's pretty obvious that you don't make basic grammatical errors.
    If anything, you're annoyed when people make simple mistakes on their blogs.
    As far as people with bad grammar go, you know they're only human.
    And it's humanity and its current condition that truly disturb you sometimes.

    Wow, what a last couple of weeks. (stops and catches breath) I guess I just wasn't as ready for school as I thought I was, and it was pretty hard to get caught up. Last Sunday I was still pouring over my hw at 11 in the morning. This Sunday I'm happy to report that I finished my hw yesterday at about 5:30 in the afternoon.
    That's the good news.
    Unfortunately, I have some really bad news too (in my opinion, at least). Taylor's talking about dropping out of school. I'm doing everything I can to try to talk him out of it, but he's not listening. He stayed home sick everyday last week so he could wake and bake and screw around. Now he says that he doesn't think he wants to go back because it's too hard. I just wish his mom and dad would put a boot in his ass and MAKE him go to school. I don't care how big he is. He drives a friggen Q45 and gets everything he wants. They can sell his car or something.
    I know he'd be pissed if he read this, but I don't care. He says stuff all the time about wanting to be a cook. If he drops out of school, he'll can be a cook alright: at McDonalds. So anyway, I've been telling all of our friends to be on his case and my dad and stepmom are going to get on his case too, but they said NOT to try to talk to his mom and dad because they know what's best for him. It just tears me up because he's my best friend and I don't want him to do something stupid that's gonna ruin his life.
    That's the drama
    Ok, so now I have some story updating to do. I'm still not sure about the anthology. I have plans to write a story, but I don't want to neglect the stuff I'm already working on, so I won't promise a story. What I will say, though, is that I definitely have an idea for a story, and if it doesn't go in the anthology, it'll still go up on my site.
    Also, in case you didn't see it in the sneak peak section of the forum, I'm working on a new chapter story called If By Chance. I sent chapter one off to Talonrider already, but I don't have beta readers for this one. Journey Back To The Yellow House is on hold indefinitely until I can make a better plan for how I want that story to turn out. In the meanwhile, I posted chapter 5 of What's The Difference Between Me and You, Book II. So yeah, not much going on right now but it's gonna pick up again. I just need to let things calm down around me for a couple more weeks.

    My day of hell

    By NickolasJames8,

    Well today was my first day back to school and all I can say is holy crap man.
     
    The first thing I found out is that I'm not as good at math as I thought I was. I mean, we did some review problems on the board and we were just randomly calling out the variables to some really easy expressions as the teacher wrote them out, and after about the sixth one, I stopped calling out my answers because they were all wrong Maybe I just need to get back into the motions of school, but I felt so out of it today. I've got a really bad feeling about this year and my grades (not to mention SOL's)

    Sometimes

    By NickolasJames8,

    I think I try too hard to do things I don't know how to do. I recently decided that I hate reading high school stories and was ready to try something new for myself. I wanted to write something adult oriented, but not tragic or anything with a moral lesson. I just wanted it to involve two adult males living their lives who happened to meet.
    I guess my problem is that I don't have anything to reference. Most of my fiction stories come from my imagination, one where I tell myself the story and then work on it later on. I've honestly never stopped to consider what a casual meeting between two adults who hook up later on entails. So in other words, I'm stuck.
    I've been reading Jake's Hand by Rec and while I love the story, I have to say that I'm really jealous of him for being able to write something so perfectly in tune with what I want to be able to write. Two guys who meet and forge a relationship. I get the same feeling of envy when I read something by Jack Scribe, because I can't seem to capture that certain something his stories have. Maybe I never will, but I definitely plan on trying.
    To that end, I'm currently working on a story just like that. No one's seen it yet, and unless I like the end result of the first chapter, no one ever will. It can't just be some trashy story that anyone can find on Nifty, but it can't bore people either. My other project, Journey Back to The Yellow House is on the back burner for now, too. I have to get myself better organized and figure out where I want that story to go and how it'll end.
    I still plan on writing a sequel to Staking My Claim, and of course What's The Difference will continue, but after that, you'll probably see a major change in the genre of my stories.

    Just a second

    By NickolasJames8,

    First off let me appologize for my last entry. I was really upset when I posted it, and the more I think about it, the angrier I'm getting. Mainly at myself for buying into a bunch of crap that I shouldn't have bought into.
    I won't get into the details of everything, but what I will say is that I was told some pretty hateful things by someone last night and I let it all get to me when I should have just brushed my shoulders off and held my head up. To be honest, what was said to me made me really start to think long and hard about my worth as an author and whether or not I really belonged here. I actually spent about an hour last night comparing my work to the work of the other hosted authors here and I started feeling really self concious. I looked at all of the positive things I ever tried to do here at GA and on my site and questioned their worth and their effectivness. Then I started to feel dumb for even thinking that my work could compare to everyone else on the Hosted page.
    I felt like I needed some time to think and to decide what the hell I was doing here. But you know what? I know what I'm doing here. I already knew better than to compare myself to the other authors on the hosted page because there's no comparison. I have my own style, and they each have their's. Is one better than the other? Perhaps, but that's not up to me to decide, it's up to the readers.
    So I'm done sulking and feeling bad about myself. I can just chalk that up to another lesson learned and move on. I'm probably still not going to be on as much, but I will be updating my stories regularly. it's what I love to do, and I'm not going to let the words of one person affect what I do with my life.
  16. NickolasJames8
    After a very stressfull 18 hours, I've decided to take a little time off of the internet and just chillax. I won't be writing and I won't be reading. I'll just be living my life. Going to work, spending time with my bf, friends and family and trying to remember what life was like before I got caught up in the grind of keeping up with stories and all the drama that comes with it. When I get back, I just want to write and send my chapters off to Joe.
    Nevermind me, I'm just venting. Anyway, I just need some time to clear my head and enjoy my summer while there's still something left of it.
     
     
    PS: Before I go, let me leave you with a link to the

    Why does MS Word 2007 have to be so complicated??? I'm trying to go back to my already completed stories and indent my paragraphs without actually having to manually click on each one and hit the space bar. I was always able to do it on Word Perfect, but for whatever reason, MS word won't let me. So anyway, I'm frustrated and need to vent a little.
    Oh yeah, after much thought, I've decided to start the third installment of the saga of Jarred, Phillip, Andrew, Kyle K, Kyle P, Renee and Jeremy All I need now is a title.....any ideas???

    Well it didn't take me long to mash up my car. I was at Exxon getting gas for the very first time since I got it, and lo and behold, I ran over a curb and bent the rim. Now my tire has a big bubble in it and the rim is ruined. I just got off the phone with my dad and he's PISSED. Anyway, I guess I have to spend whatever its gonna be to take it to First Team (the place I got it) and get it fixed. The guy at Goodyear told me I'd have to have the rim replaced, and offered to do it for 250, including the tire, but I didn't think I should just get one price. So anyway, that's my crappy Monday morning so far. I was supposed to work today, but I called in because I'm kinda scared to drive on that tire. Oh yeah, and my nose won't stop bleeding this morning for some reason

    Executed

    By NickolasJames8,

    I just saw on the news where China's former Food and Drug chief was executed for taking bribes. I'm not sure what to think...on one hand, his actions led to the approval of one drug that killed ten people. On the other hand, I'm not a big fan of the death penalty unless it's an extreme case. I honestly haven't made up my mind on whether or not this was extreme enough to end the man's life.
    China has a history of executing its citizens for things like possesion of marijuana and fraud, so I guess this shouldn't be too surprising. What I'm wondering, though, is what everyone thinks. Was it the right thing to do? Should we speak out as a nation against China's capital punishment system? Do you think the UN should condemn today's execution? What about executions here in the US? Should we still be executing people in the year 2007?
    Please discuss.

    Journey Back To The Yellow House

    Watching a California sunset is one of the most incredible treats a man or woman can take pleasure in. The orange, radiant glow of the main source of energy and sustenance for our entire plant against the hazy, afternoon sky can bring about thoughts and inspire dreams no one can steal, at least not from me. It might not seem like much if you aren

    This may not mean anything to the members here at GA, but since this is my blog, I'm posting this here. My favorite wrestler, The Canadian Crippler Chris Benoit was found dead in his home with his wife and son today. If you're a WWE fan, watch Raw tonight for a tribute show dedicated to Chris and his career.

    Well I sent in my anthology entry, which is actually a pretty amazing feat considering that an hour before I sent it in, I didn't even know if I was going to be writing anything. I had no idea for a plot, for characters or how the story would even end. Hell, i didn't even send it to my editor. I just took a chance and let my fingers do what they wanted, then I read it back a few times before I mailed it off to CJ. Hopefully it's good enough to be included this year.
    In other news, I've sent the latest chapter of Staking My Claim and eleven chapters of What's The Difference Between Me and You? off to Talonrider, who as far as I know, is still out of town. The thing is, though, we're going to Hilton Head with my grandparents this week and I don't know when he'll be home and ready to start working on my stuff, so I sent it off to him just to be on the safe side.
    To everyone who read What's The Difference before it was taken down, the rewrite is finished and as soon as I get the chapters back, I'll send them off to Joe so they can be posted (unless we're gone when I get them back ) Two of the eleven chapters I sent off are brand new, and they'll be the first two chapters of Book II.
    So I have a question. Without giving anything away, i want to know what my readers would think if I incorperated characters from an old anthology story into one of my chapter stories. I may or may not have already done it, but i thought I'd ask for some feedback anyway, since all of my beta readers are busy right now and haven't given me any feedback for a month.
     
    Oh yeah, and James get's home at 6 tonight from his vacation in Europe. Isn't that nice?

    ok, so I know that I haven't been updating all of my stories as much as I should be. I only turned in one update for Staking My Claim this week, and I posted the collabo with Graeme and Yaalc. The reaction I've gotten for that has been mostly positive, especially some of the emails. They're very sweet, and I appreciate the support.
    I pounded out a new chapter of What's the Difference early this morning, but because of Padre's day, I haven't had time to do much else. I will say that a new chapter of Time In a Bottle is burning the tips of my fingers, so look for that really soon. Also, I'm on a roll with Staking My Claim, and should have the next chapter out sometime soon. Here's the thing with the chapter delays...
    My editor needs some time to himself right now, and I plan on giving it to him. He's dealing with something more important than the saga of Jarred, Andrew and Phillip, and I can wait. There's no one else I could imagine using, honestly, so I'll wait until he's ready.
    One more thing:: If you happen to read the collaboration, please send Graeme and Yaalc some love. I mean, honestly, they totally outclassed me this time around, but there's always next time lol...just kidding. Seriously though, don't forget to email them and give them the props they deserve for their hard work. I feel honored to have been able to write with them, and would do it again in an instant.

    Warning:::: Potentially Offensive Rant Ahead
     
     
    Jerry Falwell is dead. For whatever reason, that news amuses some people. I think there's nothing to celebrate, and the mere fact that someone had the gutter mentality that it takes to celebrate that news on their blog is rather shocking, but then I guess there's not too much to be surprised about.
     
    People love to hate. I don't have anything good to say about Falwell's twisted views on gay's and abortion. I know he said something stupid after 9-11 and I know that probably wasn't the first or last stupid thing he ever said. I know he had a warped sense of reality when it came to politics, too.
     
    But come on, man. He was a person. A person with a life, and he was living it. I haven't read any stories where he personally went into someone's home and physically tried to stop them from living their lives. I haven't heard any reports that he gay bashed anyone, or that he blew up abortion clinics or killed the doctors who perform abortions.
     
    He had his views and they were his. In my opinion most of them were wrong, but just like the person who chose this moment to celebrate his passing, he had a right to express his views. In the meanwhile, he did a lot of good in this nation and around the world, but you'll never hear about that. You'll only hear about what he said about the Teletubbies, which was stupid, but not newsworthy anymore.
     
    Still, I support people's right to say whatever they feel in their blogs, and I sincerely hope that the administration here at GA doesn't censor the blog in question. No one censored Jerry Falwell, and this nation was better off for it.
     
    The only thing left to say is, God bless Jerry Falwell, and in spite of the things you said that I disagree with, I'll be saying a prayer for your family tonight before I go to sleep. Rest in peace.
