an anniversary

this week is me and my ipod's 1 year anniversary.

currently she has 3810 songs on her, and she's still as wonderful as the first day i met her.

we crossed paths at nebraska furniture mart in omaha in the last week of february, 2004. she was beautiful, relaxed, white, and willing... i was an emotional mess, desperate for retail therapy, blue as could be, and willing as well. i broke down and swept her into my arms. we made sweet, sweet, musical love as i burned cd after cd onto her in the next few weeks/months, resulting in a most wonderful love-child of perpetual continuous random music that i knew i'd always love an cherish... never a moment wasted... never a dollar missed.

a year has gone by and her lovely sister just got introduced to the world... although she's tempting, i must stay with my first love. we know each other so well and have this connection that is almost supernatural; i long for her, and she puts-out.

that's the most romantic and fulfilling relationship i've had in the past year... and i wouldn't give it up for the world.

i love you ipod *hug*

awesome weekend!!!

i had a super-awesome weekend!!!

first of all, the show opened with great success!!! people LOVE it! the pioneer press was there on saturday and gave us a rave review. but i'm a little peeved at them right now... those FUCKERS require you to register with your name, ADDRESS, PHONE NUMBER, and other shit just to look at more than one article... like HELL i'm going to give a newspaper my address. well, anyway, the link goes to the review... hopefully you won't have to register if you only read it once = )

i also stayed the night at the haunted palace theatre in saint paul! what an amazing experience. the place is almost 100 years old and is condemned... but what a cool building. we climbed around and got dirty and were cold and drank lots of wine and sang on stage and saw ghosts and slept and ate breakfast and then went home. such a fun time.

i didn't get to any of my laundry, but hell, it's worth it to be stinky for a day = )

to my readers

my blog is here for the sole purpose of being an outlet for my ramblings... a place where those who care can take a look into my life... where those who don't care can just click on by.

i love politics and religion, but i would prefer to keep both off of my blog. find me in person and i'll talk your socks off about how big of a fuck-face george w. bush is, or how assinine the social security reform is, or how ass-whipped the organized church is... but on my blog i'm in my other universe. the one in my head that allows me to imagine what life will be when tolerance, love, compassion, true care, and true humanity rule.

fresc, i love you dearly, so i've taken your posting to heart and put it in a separate posting... to read fresc's posting about a real jack-ass comment i got last week, you can read it here.

as for me... well... tonight is the preview of my play, tomorrow is the opening... i think we're ready, if i can only get some sleep and rest = )

*hugs*

proud papa

thursday ramblings

it is a most disconcerting moment when you are going to the bathroom and notice that your underwear are inside out. i mean, it's weird because up to that moment all seemed fine and dandy then all of a sudden your world has flipped poles and you can actually FEEL a difference "down there." what was perfectly comfortable for the last 5 hours is different, it's unnerving, it's downright uncomfortable. all you can think of for the rest of the day is how in the HELL did this happen and how soon can get it back to normal so as to save yourself any more discomfort.

and then there's the fact that everyone stares at you like they know something is wrong but don't want to offer you help.

the basic goodness of mankind has diminished.

an open letter

to argus:

why are you so concerned about the way i live my backdoor-desiring-life? does it affect the way you sleep at night... does it cause you to look at the cucumbers at the grocery store differently... or is it perhaps the fact that you are so insecure about yourself (read: you have a stick up your tight, virgin, ass) that when someone comes along that is actually enjoying life and basking in it's everyday blessings you just can't stand it.

let me suggest that the next time you desire to rant and rave in the way you just did that you remember these three things:

1) i don't give a flying fuck what you think (and most likely no one else does either).
2) if you don't like the way i live my life, then don't read about it in my blog.
and
3) if most fun thing you can find to do on a wednesday afternoon in february is to read through an entire gay man's blog simply to confirm your suspicion that he is a "pansy", then maybe you should invest in some porn or a dildo or something... make use of your time, don't waste mine.

and now look... you made me waste an entire blog on your un-warranted, weak, homophobic, trashy, (and most likely closeted) rantings.

a most blessed ash wednesday my friends!

hmmm

i like silly putty.

when i'm stressed, it's always there for me to manipulate and fondle. when i'm frustrated, it's there for me to beat. when i'm bored, it's there to keep my time occupied. and when i'm just here, well, so is my silly putty.

as a trainer i have lots of little cutsy things at my desk to keep myself and my students busy and engaged in training... but nothing keeps me as engaged as my silly putty.

current silly putty color: green.

until...

i bought "the bracelet" this weekend.

that is... the until there's a cure bracelet.

it's a really neat looking bracelet, but quite possibly the neatest thing about it is that 100% of the purchase price goes to the organization. than means when you go to the body shop or kenneth cole or any other retailer to buy the bracelet, the full purchase price goes to "until."

i'm going to have the inside plaque on mine engraved with the simple name "larry".

larry was the first person i ever knew that had aids... unfortunately i had no idea he had aids until he was the first person i ever knew to die of aids.

lets stop making it such a taboo subject... lets fight this thing.

ahhh

what the fuck is going on w/ my blog???

shit... i bet it has something to do with my pic hosting site... damn them.
