Say What?!?

2011-11-01T06:50:00.001-07:00

I got called out the other day in a health class for being what the kid called "too skinny". I want to believe that he didn't mean any harm by that statement. I'm sure he didn't...

Stop Killing Queer Youth

2011-06-08T12:55:00.001-07:00

Mickey Weems, a columnist, had an interesting thing to say a few weeks ago. He was listing wins and fails of the last year in LGBT issues. It's Pride month if you didn't know. His last fail?...

Internet "Issues"

2011-06-02T07:50:00.000-07:00

I made a website for a client not too long ago. It was real simple and nothing special. They just wanted a few pages on the site. Easy right? It was until I told the client the site was ready and...

2011-02-03T13:06:00.000-08:00

Proposals

2010-12-25T13:39:00.000-08:00

I've been proposed to three times, four if you count the drunk friend on Congress Ave. For the record, I'm 22 years old. I guess when you can't get legally married, a proposal seems like the thing...

Wall Space

2010-12-16T14:26:00.000-08:00

I've ran out of wall space for my paintings. I either need to start selling some of them or repaint the older ones. I don't see the purpose behind painting something that nobody is going to see or...

Pets vs. Children

2010-12-16T14:05:00.000-08:00

Most of my friends know that I don't really care for children. They are loud, messy, and for the most part not very useful to anyone. I know, "not my children, not every child, blah blah". The...

Marriage

2010-12-02T11:34:00.001-08:00

I have a problem with gays and lesbian couples who refer to their partner as their wife or husband. You aren't. Sorry. If you went to some state or country an made it all legal, that's a...

Sociology 101 (Gender vs Sex)

2010-08-29T13:11:00.000-07:00

A couple of my friends really liked my last sociology post so I decided to do another real quick one. Most people don't really think about gender and sex very much in their day to day lives, but the...

Your Supposed To

2010-08-29T13:04:00.000-07:00

Tought I'd pass this little tid bit along. I was trying to post something in one of my class forums and had to look up if it was "suppose to" or "supposed to". If your like me you sound things out...

Sofa

2010-08-21T19:27:00.000-07:00

I moved into my new place a few weeks ago. It's tinny, like ten steps to the other side tiny. I'm getting ready to move to a big city where rent is expensive and I only can afford 500 square feet. ...

Yard Of Books

2010-08-03T19:35:00.000-07:00

I start graduate school in a few weeks. YAY!! Finally get to learn useful things that actually matter and not crap that I need to know for some standardized test. Yesterday I went to the bookstore...

Fired?!? Really, I'm Shocked.

Be My Friend

2010-07-07T20:36:00.000-07:00

I have a MySpace profile. I know, that is so 1999. I don't really use it that much. More there just in case someone's like, "hey check out my MySpace profile!" It opens in a tab on my homepage...

Last Month's Theme

2010-07-07T20:06:00.000-07:00

I would never wish to be straight or "normal". I've learned so much about myself and the world being who I am and how I was born. The flip side to that however is that I would never wish my...

I Was Attacked!!

2010-06-24T09:45:00.000-07:00

Just minding my own business, windows down, driving down the highway and BAM! Honestly I think it was a targeted hate crime, no other way to explain the random act. You guessed it, a cricket flew...

Cynicism

2010-06-24T09:37:00.000-07:00

A few people have sent me messages lately commenting on how cynical and negative my blog is. I tend to be rather cynical in my writing because it's much more entertaining that way. Really, how many...

Don't Mind That Sound, It's Just My Kid

2010-06-15T22:05:00.000-07:00

Oh my God!!! I walked into work today and was welcomed by a horde of children climbing all over the place, screaming their heads off. And no, I don't work at a restaurant with a giant mouse mascot...

Why I Post

2010-06-15T21:37:00.000-07:00

Before I write anything let me say something; I've been up watching a movie and drinking a rather cheap bottle of wine by myself. I have a rule of never deleting posts from my blog. Hopefully this...

Gag

2010-06-13T17:25:00.000-07:00

Going through my contact list on IM and come across one of my friend's statuses. He's apparently going to a pool party...wait what's this? He posted a link to a YouTube video. I'm thinking, "maybe...

I Am Man! Hear Me Roar!!

2010-06-09T19:01:00.001-07:00

Just got done watching an interesting documentary about what it means to be masculine, specifically what it means to be gay and masculine. In the straight world guys are given their "man card". ...

First Date and a Credit Check

2010-06-02T17:49:00.001-07:00

I went on a first date/blind date/thingy a few weeks ago. (Life has been that busy; I'm just now writing about it) I knew the kid, sort of, but never had deep conversation with him. So after weeks...
