Day Three: still true. I’m a little politiced out, so how about a story from my life instead? Do you know where I was last night? No, I did not come to Jesus. Let me give you another hint: That’s right! It’s the Rockettes! On a balmy night in early November, I celebrated Christmas by [...]

Wheezy
I had a little housewarming party on Saturday, and right after the last guest left, I had some kind of crazy ass allergy or asthma attack. I tried to sleep, but the sound of my own wheezing kept waking me up. I’m assuming the attack was not caused my my dear guests, but by the [...]

NSFW?
On Saturday, I was hanging out with a friend from swimming and he asked me about my plans for Sunday. “I’m going to ask Birmingham to come over to my place and screw.” “Does that mean you guys are back together?” “No, it means I have some shelves I need to be put up and [...]

6. Burger Hill & Poet’s Walk
Gah, I’ve been away from the internet like FOREVER, (3 days) and now I find that I no longer have internet access at home (neighbor with the free wifi moved and the other neighbor doesn’t know the password to her network, and yet again I prove to have no ability to make the numbers on [...]

Happy Birthday Birminghaaaaammm!

Cement Shoes
I was on the phone with Birmingham last night bitching about my usual complaint: that a handful of my friends are so busy with their lives, they haven’t returned phone calls. Again, weighed my options for response. Call again and risk further rejection, send emails giving them a piece of my mind, which could be [...]

Happy St. Patrick’s Day!
It feels a little silly to say that I’m proud of being a quarter Irish, because on one hand, it’s not like I had any say in that, and on the other, the Irish side of my family were Protestants, and they came here a really long time ago. But still, I like to celebrate [...]

Contact
Recently, Birmingham and I got back in touch. We’re not together again as a couple, we’re trying to lift the gag-order of friendship to see if we can stay in touch without falling into an emotional black hole. Even though we still have the same relationship problems, (he won’t even think about just fucking proposing [...]

Untitled Post
I’m intentionally burying this post on a Saturday afternoon in the middle of the holidays, because I don’t really want to write it. I just thought that I should update those of you who are interested enough to subscribe to the blog via RSS or those of you who go back to read back dated [...]
