Dave emailed me about this blog post earlier. I read it, and like the writer of the post, I felt sick. In fact, still do. I feel horrible that another person would suffer the fate of suicide, because of the lack of care and real love from their family. I feel awful that someone would [...]

does it matter if it is fake, given that it happens all of the time?
Published by January 31st, 2007 in is it just me?, listen up!, near and dear, that is so gay and venting. 5 CommentsGod doesn’t hate anyone, Donnie
Published by January 30th, 2007 in funnies, is it just me?, that is so gay and tragic. 8 CommentsEarlier this morning, I saw a link on a friend’s LJ to a website that listed “gay bands” that should be avoided (at least according to the anti-gay website). While the list is certainly funny, like how they write “(really gay)” next to Elton John’s name, and how the Indigo Girls made it on there [...]
insecurities gone too far
Published by January 29th, 2007 in all about me, james says and near and dear. 10 CommentsIt started innocently enough, it started with a plan to spend the day together.
Things were going great; playing video games, going to visit some friends, planning what to eat for dinner, and talking about what movies to watch.
The evening went on, you cooked me dinner, and we watch our shows together. The day went so [...]
yay! it’s friday!
Published by January 26th, 2007 in "pointless", blog on blog, mixed media and the catch-all-egory. 4 CommentsSo, I guess the randomness from the other day is infectious, because I seem to still be infected with it. So here we go:
I found out what it means to be Jewish today. No, I didn’t convert, I have a friend that is Jewish, and she helped me understand the “difference” between the religion and [...]
awoken to waking memories
Published by January 25th, 2007 in all about me, is it just me? and near and dear. 4 CommentsI had a meeting early this morning, and was anxious about getting up early enough to make it, so I ended up waking up around 5am. While I was laying there trying to fall back asleep, in between tossing and turning and poking James to make him stop snoring, my mind, for whatever reason, drifted [...]
what to blog… what to blog…
Published by January 24th, 2007 in "pointless", civil rights and is it just me?. 2 CommentsHmm… I have been sitting here wondering off and on to myself all day, “self, what should you blog about?”, and honestly, I haven’t come up with much of anything. I would love to say something about Bush and his speech last night, but I couldn’t stand listening to him long enough to make it [...]
So this weekend, I experienced two media phenomena that were too new and fresh not to review here on my blog. The result? You get a two review Tuesday! Woo hoo!
The first review today, is for the movie Children of Men. The premise of the movie, is a post apocalyptic future, in which Britain is [...]
happy birthday, Roe v. Wade!
Published by January 22nd, 2007 in civil rights, listen up! and politics. 16 CommentsToday is the anniversary of the monumental Roe v. Wade case, which, as all of you may know, effectively legalized abortion in the US. As I have said before, and will continue to say until there is no breath in my body, abortion should always be a fundamental right of every woman, everywhere. It is [...]
fuck comcASS (that’s right, the t is silent)
Published by January 20th, 2007 in is it just me?, listen up! and venting. 20 CommentsAfter a month of me calling repeatedly to see why my “high speed” internet connection has been working at less than dial up speeds, I finally thought that today I would get resolution. I talked with the Comcast person on Thursday, and here’s what she said (keep in mind, this would be the 5th time [...]
shows like 24, the portrayal of Islam, and what we do with that
Published by January 19th, 2007 in civil rights, is it just me?, mixed media, venting and well?. 6 CommentsI just read an article on CNN.com that kind of had me a little confused, and well, frustrated. See, apparently, since the premiere of this season’s anti-terrorism, action-thriller show 24, Muslim groups are speaking out that they are worried that the portrayal of Islamic fundamentalists will somehow prevent Americans from distinguishing fiction from reality; and [...]
