Well, we made it back yesterday California was nice to visit, but by the end of our trip, I was glad to be coming home. We had a really good time, though. I dont even know where to begin..... The flight there totally sucked. I started to panic a little when we were about to take off because I thought I could smell something burning, then the lady in the seat behind me asked the lady who she was sitting next to if she could smell smoke So anyway, by that point, we were going really fast down the runway and before I could say anything we were taking off. So now I'm totally freaking out and the plane starts jerking around while we're going up in the air. Finally, we go out over the ocean and turn around, the when we did, the seemed like it was bouncing around and hitting bumps The whole time it was happening though the flight attendents were just acting like everything was normal. Finally it seemed like things were pretty smooth and they turned off the seatbelt sign until we landed in Dallas. When we got to Dallas we were all hungry and grouchy because we had to wait there for 2 hours before we could leave for Sacramento, but we found a good place for food. I had 2 bbq beef brisquet sandwiches and Taylor had 3...they were friggen good So on the way to Sacramento I thought I smelt the same burning smell but no one else could smell it. When we got to Cali the car my dad rented for my cousin was totally wack and it didnt even have a CD player, so we made him upgrade to something else There was no way we were gonna go a whole week with no CD player. Ok, here's where I should stop and tell everyone something........... I guess not everyone in my family knew I was gay. I'm sure they know now, though. I introduced Taylor to everyone and told them who he was. One of my dads cousins was being kinda snotty about it, but when we played football, Taylor put a hard ass hit on him when he caught the ball and knocked him on his fat behind. He got up and looked mad and tried to catch the ball again but Taylor intercepted on him and ran it back for a touchdown. He was HOT after that and he said he had to go inside for something..lol. We had a really good time, though. We went to Great America and Taylor even got to ride on a Bart train. It's kinda like a subway but it's in California. While we were in San Francisco we walked around with my cousin and found some pretty interesting people....lol. There was even this one guy with leather pants on but his butt was sticking out.. He looked like he could have been a biker or something except that he was a total flamer. It ruled!! Then we went to Reno for my great great grandma's 100th birthday party. I can't believe she's really 100 because she looks like she's about 70. She still walks and does things on her own and she wanted to go there so she could gamble. The party was pretty good but me and Taylor didnt get to drink champagne at the toast because the hotel staff was pouring it But there was this guy who worked at the Starbucks inside the place who was sooooo cute My cousin James was totally perving on him, but I dont think he was gay. Anyway he was still hott!! and James had a major crush on him. He kept going back and buying stuff so he could talk to him. I dont really remember much about the flight home because I slept the whole way. I dont even remember taking off from Dallas to Norfolk. I sat down and closed my eyes and when I opened them back up we were in the air, so I just went back to sleep. I studied all day yesterday and today I got my permit That's right....if you live in the Tidewater area you might want to thinnk about staying off the roads for a while... lol j/k ......I think I'm a good driver So anyway, I was excited to see that the anthology was up. I logged on a couple of times when I was in Cali, but we had to go to a library to do it and there was almost a fight between this guy and this woman because he was reading his email out loud and she was sitting next to him and it was bugging her. Also, I got to take Taylor for a walk in my old neighborhood. We had to climb the fence to get on the school grounds at El Vista, but it was worth it. It was just like I thought it was going to be So anyway we're back and I'm totally inspired to start writing again. I already finished a whole short story yesterday and I just need to go back over it to make sure it makes enough sense before I post it...also, Taylor wants to write a story too, but usually he says he wants to do something like that and he never does. We never got to go to Bodega bay, but we're still ready to write the next chapter. The only problem is that i dont know why I picked the city I picked that kevin ended up in at the end of chapter one......I dont really know anything about it... Oh well, I'll still make it work

Dr. Nickolas is writing you a prescrpition....Eat three bowls of grit's with any topping you want a day. Also, have at least one plate of scattered potatoes with onions and cheese and a pound of shrimp a day Don't forget to wash it all down with some sweet tea

I didn't even think dial up was invented anymore

Well, it's official...my dad's trying to ruin my vacation I knew this would happen. Here's what he's doing......... I have my own job, and I make my own money....also, I have a lot of report card money, too. I wanted to take a thousand dollars with me to California for our vacation, but my dad wouldn't let me. Instead, he only let me have three hundred dollars out of my savings account, then he gave me 500 dollars to spend why we're there.....I told him that he wouldn't have to give me any money at all if he would just let me take a thousand dollars of my own money. He's such a jerk sometimes...... Anyway, I'm just gonna try to avoid him when we get there. Me and Taylor and my cousin James are just gonna hang out together and go wherever we want to......one place I know I want us to go by ourselves to is Great America I havent been there sine I was a little kid. James and Taylor havent ever gone, so it's gonna be fun for them too I want to ride Survivor, the new ride they have. It looks awesome. So while I'm gone, I wont be updating any stories to efiction or Nifty.....my stuff at CRVboy and The Talon House always updated without me having to do anything(thanks to my editor, The Great Talonrider!!) so you can go there and see new chapters. I'm almost done with the edit on What's the difference between me and you? at the efiction section.....I've been going slow because I want to make sure i'm doing it right Also, I'm almost done with Chapter 31 of What's the Difference, so hopefully by the time I get back, I'll have it ready to post. Anyway, for the people who had to read the bad spelling/grammer versions of my stories, I'm almost done fixing it all. Now I just have to figure one thing out......how to save my stories in html form using word perfect.....I dont think I like word perfect anymore. It's pretty wack because there arent that may options for formatting text. Today we have to go get me a new pair of shoes or I can't get on the plane I dont want to be seen in public with my old Air Force Ones, so I need a new pair. Actually, I hope I can talk my stepmom into getting me two pairs. I also need about 12 new shirts and some new shorts too, so I have a lot of shopping to get done. I'll try to get online and check on the forums while I'm there, but I dont think my uncle has a computer He might be the only person in the entire western hemisphere without a pc or a mac. I can get online at someones house though, so I'll at least be checking my email......in the meanwhile, I wont be on GA for a whole week (hears a loud roar of celebration from everyone else ) Kisses, Nick

I hope you liked it...As soon as we get there we're going to get some....I want a triple scoop with double malted crunch, mint chip and chocolate chip

Thanks Kevin What I did with What's the difference is combine the chapters where it made sense to and made them longer. So instead of 44 chapters, there 30 plus the preface. I'm almost done with the next chapter, then I have to send it off to my editor (the great Talonrider!), so it wont be posted until I get home from Cali Thanks Kevin.......I found it at a link from this site and I fell in love with it

Hmmm...I havent had any problems with it at all I dont get the new menu you're talking about on my screen, either.....is that because I use AOL???

Someone emailed me last night to say that he was having trouble downloading one of the chapters of my story on CRVboy because one of the chapters wouldn'y load on his browser....anyway, I'm not tripping about it or anything because I have it posted in sooo many places that if he tried to pass it off as his own, people would know right away. Besides, it's not anywhere near being finished and he'd have to write the rest of the chapters. So I gave him the link to my page, thanked him for reading my stuff and wished him luck

There's been a lot of weird changes that we have to get used to, but personally, I think the way the author forums are set up now is better, especially since there's a million author forums

oooh, did you get a triple scoop???

Ok, so this has been a pretty good day. You know what I did today??? Not a damn thing I sat around, edited and posted chapter nine of My Jump Off and basically relaxed. I don't know why, either, because it's not like I did a lot this week. I worked a few days, and we went to Water Country USA on Friday, but other than that, I just messed around and did what I wanted to do. I guess not having to go to school everyday has me really care free, and even a little bored. I sat down and pounded out chater nine of My Jump Off like I said I would, and I also finished reposting all the chapters to my stories so that they'd be perfect. I was able to cut What's The Difference Between Me and You down to 30 chapters from 44, and it looks much cleaner, too. So instead of saying that I'm working on chapter 45, I'll say I'm working on chapter 31 Okay, so there's this other forum I belong to , and I don't post nearly as much there as I do here. One of my friends is a moderator there, though, so I ike to go. There's a grip of people who go there and post, maybe even some from this forum (idk) So anyway, yesterday I made a post and I called something gay, and the very next person to post was all, Why don't you say what you really mean...faggot. Then we'll all know what you're made of Of course, being the cool headed, calm, collected, non confrontational person I am, I refraned for the most part from lashing out at the guy. He's obviously not that good at too much in his life, and he most likely just got dumped by his man or something like that...anyway, so the owner of the site directed the moderator who I'm friends with to start a topic about it, which he did...the overwhelming response has been that most people think it's gay to be offended by the word gay....lol. Well, one week left until we go to Cali I'm sooo excited. I still can't believe Taylor's going with us. It's like a dream come true for me. The first thing I'm going to do with him is take him to my old school, El Vista, and walk the school grounds while we hold hands. I just want him to see where I lived and where I went to school. We'll be staying at our old house that my uncle lives in now, and I can't wait for him to see it for some reason. Then I'm going to take him to get some Thrifty's ice cream, double malted crunch . That's always the first thing me and my dad do when we go home. Of course, if you haven't had Thrifty's ice cream, you wouldn't understand, but trust me, it rules :ranger:

HAPPY BIRTHDAY MOVIEGUY

Mmaybe you should go find some chocolate...it sounds like the chocolate reserves in your body are getting low :2hands: :pickaxe:

Happy Birthday

Happy Birthday

Today was a pretty good day except for the crappy weather, which always sucks..lol. Anyway, I was riding home from work with my dad tonight and he was listening to a CD by Memphis Bleek, and there was this one song that was playing that was so deep. It made me thinnk about my dad and everything he does and how hard he works to give me and my stepmom and my cousin everything. The lyrics go like this.... "Y'all don't understand me still I never enjoyed success but my family will And I'm alright with that. Ok, so it's a rap song, and I know that a lot of people here don't like hip hop. But the words to it were so touching. Basically the point of the song was that the Memphis Bleak hates stardom and all of the stress that goes with it, but he does it to give his mom the life she never had and to give his kids the life that he didn't have growing up. I just thought it was funny that my dad was playing it because i can say the same thing about him. He's obviously not a famous rapper, but he works his butt off to give us everything. I can remember when my cousin James came to live with us when I was little and he had like 3 shirts and some tore up from the floor up shoes, and my dad took him in and worked even harder than he already was to make sure he had a good life. I always thought my dad had it really good when he was little, but then I found out how poor him and my grandma had to live, and I understand why he does it now. Some of the stuff I learned was shocking, and the idea that my dad had to hear my grandma crying in her room when she thought he was sleeping because she didnt know how they were going to make it upsets me, but it also makes me understand so much about him and why he's so strict about appreciating everything he gives us. It also makes me mad at my grandfather, but I've decided that I don't have anything to forgive him for. It's up to my dad and my aunt to forgive him if they're still mad at him. I think my dad already has, but my aunt hasn't, and I don't know if I blame her. My grandpa has always had a lot of money, and when I found out that he wouldn't even pay child support so that my grandma could feed her kids I get upset. A few months ago I posted about a lady my dad bought bread for at 7-11, and I was pissed because she had a brand new pack of ciggarettes but she didnt have money to buy food. Well, I didn't get it then, but now I do. I didn't know what had happened to him when he was little, so I couldn't see why it was so important to him for her to get that bread. Then I had to sit and think about how hard he really works. My dad is always on his cell phone to his job. Someone calls every hour of every day, and sometimes he has to drop everything and go to work all the way in Newport News, which is like 40 miles from our house. He used to spend a week or more at a time in Carolina for his job too. I know he hates it. He doesn't have a job he likes, he has a job that pays a lot of money because he doesn't want my stepmom to have to work and he doesn't want me to have second best anything and he wants to be able to send my cousin to ODU and pay for it so my cousin wont have to work while he goes to school. So, in a way, that song is a perfect description of my dads life. he doesn't get to enjoy his success. Instead, I enjoy it, and my stepmom enjoys it and my cousin enjoys it. I just hope that someday he gets to relax and enjoy the life he's worked so hard to give us

Dude, I think its an awesome story...you ought to post it in the efiction section of the site, Scribe.....btw, glad you're here

Happy Birthday Dude

lol....happy 4th Camy

Well, I did it. I went out on a limb and I did something that I might or might not regret. I guess I'll find out for myself soon enough because I already sent the email off and there's no way to get it back I won't say what I did, because if it doesn't go how I hope it does, I think I'll be crushed, and I don't want people to see that side of me. Sometimes I don't know why I'm scared to take chances, even though in the end I know I'm going to do it whether I'm scared or not. That's just how I am. Not knowing what would have happened if I hadn't have at least tried is worse to me than trying and not making it. If it doesn't go the way I hope it does, at least I can say I went for it. I'm still nervous. *********************************************************************************** Well, I got What's The Difference Between Me and You? cleaned up. I merged some of the chapters and I have about 75% of it edited by Talonrider. I'll get the rest of it done soon enough, then I'll be posting only edited chapters. Speaking of that, Talonrider started yesterday on My Jump Off, and he got chapter eight back to me today, so I posted it. I'll have the first seven chapters reposted and all cleaned up in no time flat . I'm already half way through chapter nine, and I'm feeling pretty good about my writing again. I think I just felt a lot of pressure for some reason, and now I know how silly I was being. I just need to relax and remember why I write....because I enjoy it. If I ever stop liking it, I won't do it anymore. So anyway, if it seems like I'm crankier than usual (is that possible? ) it's because I'm starting to get really serious about what I'm doing here. If I stay on the efiction page forever, I still want my stories to be the best they can be. In fact, I want them to be the best at this site. I mean, it's going to be a challenge, but to be honest, I think I can do it. I have a lot of learning to do, but I'm not going to just settle down and say,"well, that's it. I have a few good stories and now I can stop growing and learning." I think it sucks when writers do that, and I'm not talking about anyone in particular, but the truth is, I can name some. I think part of being able to enjoy writing stories is being able to relax, too. I mean, no drama at home. Lately my dads been on my butt about a few things he wants me to do around the house before we go to Cali, and I was putting it all off. So I got it all done yesterday, and I feel stress free(at least as far as that stuff goes). Today I just hung out with Taylor at his place so we could be alone for a change. it seems like no matter what we try to do, we get interupted. If we try to sit alone in the backyard, someone comes out there. If we try to hang out here, someone calls and wants to get together. If we go somewhere like the beach or the mall, we run into someone we know. If we go online and try to read a story, someone IM's us..lol. So today we just went to his place after we knew his parents were gone to work and we kicked it in his pool. Then it got cloudy, then it started to pour.. So we went back inside and just chilled out and listened to Cd's. I've been listening to a lot of old Santana, but we listened to the Eagles today, and when the song Tequila Sunrise came on, I thought about what I talked about in the beginning of this post. So now I'm home and it's still ugly outside. Taylors actually doing a driving lesson in the rain with his dad, and I wanted nothing to do with that..lol. I'm going to look at chapter nine of My Jump Off and put on my Santana CD and see what flows out of my twisted mind for Jarred By the way, I posted a lyric to the right from Tupac Shakir. I'm thinking about trying to write a short story just based on that lyric alone. I think it'll be fun to see what I can come up with. Kisses Nick
