Lordy, lordy... look who's forty. Have a good one, Steve.

I've always thought it was at least somewhat misleading. There are many potential partners out there. If there were only one, there would not be very many people in relationships at all, certainly not ones that become life-long couples. I think there are more bad matches than good matches though.

Happy birthday! I hope you have a good one.

That was an interesting chapter for sure. Eric can be rather cocky sometimes. He thinks Helen is oblivious, but she isn't. He is so proud of himself. I also found it interesting that Helen intends to invite the parents to the wedding, especially considering history. The mother might actually attend if her husband allows it. That could be interesting.

Poor CJ... he's everyone's scapegoat.

The new Metallica album has been released. I'm sure many were hoping it would live up to the hype. I'm going to go with #4. I've only heard one song so far, and that is "The Day That Never Comes". While it is better than anything from that awful album, St. Anger, nothing compares to The Black Album, though Ride the Lightning and Master of Puppets had some good tunes as well.

Well, in my last entry, I mentioned my new addiction to Star Kingdoms, but I decided I was done for the round. Hopefully, I can do better next round. Thus, it is time to write again. Yes, I have neglected it for a while for whatever reason. Well, I cannot say too much about my winter anthology except that it is actually a bit of a spin-off of a story I have written in the past. It's going to delve into history a bit, but it's definitely befitting of the theme. Speaking of past stories, I also need to get back to work on Dark Earth 2. I've been brainstorming a bit. I already knew where it goes, but I may actually make my first two chapters deeper into the book, because I have some stuff that goes before that I really want to add. I'm aiming for a release of next spring, but I do not know for sure. I don't write stories as quickly as some.

Well, I'm back now. I got my ass handed to me in SK, so I'm done until next round. Anyway, I still won't be posting quite as much. I have a short story to finish and a series I want out by next summer, so I need to be a good boy.

I agree with Graeme for the most part. However, sometimes there are mixed signals. Some guys will say one thing one day and something else the next. It's like some men are incapable of deciding what they want, which is really sad to be honest. There are a lot of people who might say that you should just make up their minds. If I were you I would just ask him. You may end up being rejected; you might not. However, if you just keep it to yourself, you won't know one way or the other. Take a risk. You may get burned or you may end up with a boyfriend. Either way you can finally move forward.

Take a look at the bold text.

I don't think he has to do that. Anyway, I know I haven't been posting a lot lately. I've been busy playing a game. Seek my blog. It's all the fault of Demetz.

Well, we're not even close to 1,000 posts in here yet.

Disturbed has an awesome cover on "Land of Confusion". It's also a cool animated video.

There's a video with Metallica's "Seek and Destroy" with scenes from Animatrix. It's awesome! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sUoWZ_zcPpE...feature=related

I happen to agree. I try to use names that are not used quite as much like Cristobel, Julian, etc. It seems to be a lot more fun that way. Then again, there are only so many names that I actually like. You'd never catch me calling a character Earl or something else that's ghastly. PS- I mean no offense to any members named Earl. You have my sympathies.

While it is a rarity, I sometimes stutter. I'm usually a good linguist, but sometimes I am unsure what to say or overly excited. That can lead to stuttering. It doesn't bother me. My brother had a really bad problem with stuttering when he was younger.

Well, I haven't been posting blogs much lately. I have a new addiction. It's called Star Kingdoms. Basically, you get to build a military and, along with your allies, destroy targets. We're in the midst of war. I love it! Ash (Demetz) is to blame, because he told me about SK, so now you all know why I'm not on GA as much.

Happy birthday, dude! Have a good one!

I'm glad you're doing so well. Chemo does have some nasty side effects, especially nausea and lethargy. Those are good days to stay in bed much of the day and sleep. I wouldn't be surprised if I eventually have to deal with it, because cancer is prevalent in my family. Hopefully, there will be a real cure someday. That would be great for so many people. Take care and remember that I am likely around if you need to vent.

That's great, Robert! Take it easy. If you need to vent, I'm on MSN a lot more than I should be.

Anna, you're beautiful. Those are very nice pics.

It happens. When people are drunk, they tend to be more free. It also happens that we occasionally have feelings for straight men. That's just a fact of life. Eventually, you'll get over it. You'll look back and think little of it. I know it probably sounds cliche, but it is true. Just remember that it has happened to most of us at one point or another.

I'm trying it now. I think I prefer Firefox. Added: I'm editing with FF, because it is a lot better.
