It's been a while!
Ok, so yeah it has been a while since I have posted, about 7 months to be exact. Well suprise I am still alive. Anyway, to the meat of todays post.
I woke up the other morning, and what did I happen to see but the anouncement that Carl Rove was resigning. Normally I would be ecstatic. The more I thought about it though, the more this worries me. Let's face it, the president isn't to bright. Carl Rove has been the brains behind the presidency the whole time Bush has been in office. Now that Rove is gone, who is going to replace him? Who's going to be the new mind behind the president? You know this should really be something that should concern us all.
Sadly, I say go with the evil you know instead of the one you don't. The one you don't may just be worse after all.
Reflection
All in all I can't say 2006 has been a horrible year. There were ups and downs, but this year I think my perspective has changed somewhat.
The Ups- Moved into my own apartment.
- Started to reconnect with an old friend.
- Made some amazing new friends.
- Began exploring other facets of myself that I have never had the opportunity to.
- Got to watch two wonderful little animals for friends.
- Had the love of a number of friends and family.(This is the important one here folks.)
The Downs
- Broke up with my boyfriend.
Wow, for some reason I really don't see any downs past that one. Life was a lot better than what it seemed in the moment if people were to ask me how things were going last year. Even breaking up with my boyfriend wasn't so much of a down as it was something to make me sit up and look at where I was at. We are still friends and nothing says that we can't work things out.
I have a job, a place to live, and wonderful people in my life. There isn't much more I could ask for. Thank you everyone for your love and support. Here's to hoping you all had a good holiday and have a great 2007.

Merry Christmas!
I hope all out there had a safe and Merry Christmas!
Mine was nice! It was a nice quiet weekend. I was at a friends for the holiday. The weekend consisted mostly of EQ2, Guild Wars Nightfall(Christmas present), and Guitar Heros 2. Picture it, two homos playing guitar like some rockstar. On Monday we went and saw Dreamgirls. It was amazing. Jennifer Hudson was phenomenal.
Christmas dinner consisted of Chinese food since neither of us felt like cooking. All in all, this weekend somehow felt right. That's been something that has been lacking as of lately, and it's nice to feel that way about something I do again.
Hope everyone has a great New Year!
How Much?
Sorry for the length between posts for those of you who still care to check this here blog.
Something has happened recently that has made me sit and think. How much does someone need to be loved before they actually notice. There are four people outside of my family that I actually say, "I love you," to. One of them is a friend that I am so head over heels for that I look rather pathetic. One is someone I consider a really close friend, and it just fits him. One is my ex, who I do honestly still love, and the last is someone I care about a lot though whether in a dating way is still up in the air.
The one that I am heed over heals for...I asked out on an actual date. The response from him was that he doesn't date friends followed by a bunch of other excuses. He doesn't want to mess up the friendship and all this other crap. I have been in love with this person for the last two years of my life. Previous to now I would drop anything if he asked me too, and at times I have. Him saying that finally gave me a good smack up side the head and made me realize how much am I going to put myself through with this guy when nothing is ever going to happen no matter how devoted I am to him.
I have decided that I can't continue to put myself through this with him. Every time I am around him I have fun, but then there is this hurt feeling that goes along with it. I am not at all stalkerish. I could never do that to anyone. As a matter of fact I am the exact opposite. I don't want to feel this way, so I am going to remove what is causing the pain, and the only way for me to do that is to end the friendship with him. I guess that is being childish, but I don't know what else to do. Anyway, opinions are welcome, and I will try to post more. Not promising anything though.
Friday Malaise?!?!
I know. Most of you are probably wondering how I could be in a funk today when it's Friday of all days. Honestly, I am sitting here wondering that same thing as I attempt not to do the 5 things I have left to do today in the 15 minutes that it would actually take me to get them done.
You know I don't lead an exciting life. For the most part, I am a home body. I don't do well in crowds usually, and I am extremely shy when it comes to meeting new people. Hell, on Manhunt usually people have to talk to me first. I don't even know where or how to meet new people. I really don't like going to bars but maybe once or twice a month, and that's pushing it. You know what though, other than this occassional funk I am quite happy with my life.
I do have a few good friends, and I am living my life the way I want to. What more could a person ask for really. Thanks for listening to my ramblings. Hope you all have a great weekend.
Yeah yeah yeah!
I know I haven't been around for a while, and for that I appologize. I guess after being mentioned over at
The Sean Show, I should make daddy proud and start posting more. Following are a couple brief updates.
As of the 27th of July, I am now 31. This really is no big thing to me. I still feel like I am a big kid. I still play video games, collect comic books and whatnot. Let me just make one thing clear...I AM BY NO MEANS a 31 Year Old Virgin. ;-)
As far as my work, I moved within my department. For the unenlightened, I work in accounting at a sizable lawfirm here in DC. The new position is faster paced which helps the day go by a lot quicker.
Anyway, that's about it for now. If anyone is reading this here thing, please post a comment and introduce yourself.
Brief Theatre Queen Moment
I hope everyone forgives me, but I am about to have a really queenie moment.
A friend of mine was working on
Caroline, or Change at the Studio Theatre on 14th Street. He had two comp tickets for the closing show and gave them to me. I took another friend, Scooter.
All I can say after sitting through the show is wow. The story was very moving. The performances were dead on. I was moved to tears during the show a couple of times and still hold them back as I think about it.
This musical made me even more of a fan of Tony Kushners. What a great way to end the weekend.
