Def Leppard with Poison (and a Health Update)

Yesterday a friend of mine, Brenda, with whom I went to high school (but really didn’t know back then) posted a link on her Facebook that the concert that I wanted to go to but could not afford, was having a one day sale of tickets for $10. I checked the site and looked at [...]

Accepting Non-Acceptance

I just got done watching The Matthew Shepard Story which I had recorded on my TiVo. A few moments in the movie, which is about the fatal beating of a gay man in the town of Laramie, WY, in the late ’90s, reminded me of something which often comes to mind when gay people complain [...]

Thoughts of Memories

I’m one of those people that thinks that people need to get over their old childhood horrors and move on. Even so, I still recall my awful experience during a period of my childhood commonly referred to as “School Age.” It was a miserable time for me. I’ve lately been adding (and been added by) [...]

This Weekend

My friend, Sara, will be coming over this weekend. She doesn’t have a car so her dad is going to drive her approximately halfway here and then I’ll take her the rest of the way. Usually I have to drive the two or so hours there and, of course, the two hours back. It’s not [...]

UPS Automated Phone System

The option of speaking to an agent is only offered after sitting through two sessions of it asking you to choose from their four or so options, [...]

Pride Weekend with “Bitch”

I picked up my friend Sara, a.k.a. Bitch, on Friday after work. She lives over 100 miles away. Luckily it was a nice pretty day and I have air conditioning so that trip was pretty decent. After I picked her up I suggested that we eat at one of our old regular places of grub, [...]

A couple of weeks ago I spent the weekend with my friend, Sara (a.k.a. Bitch, a.k.a. Baby-cakes), over in Sequim, Washington. Sequim is pronounced more as squim. Native Americans must have loved fucking with us by spelling things in a manner counter-intuitive to its pronunciation. Anyways, Bitch and I went to Fort Worden National Park [...]

Weekend at Sara’s

Sara and I made plans for me to come over to here place this weekend. She lives over a hundred miles away now so I see her so much less than the regular once or twice a week that I used to see her when we lived within the same city. It sucks being so [...]
