And The Days Go By......Like A Strand In The Wind
Saturday, August 07, 2004
Well, long time no see everyone. I am posting today. Have no idea if and when I will do this again, but for today~~~ I am here.
This past week, we expiereced some rather severe flooding due to Hurricane Alex spinning his was through the Atlanitc. The first hurricane of the season, many more to come...or so they expect. Monday and Tuesday were awful. The one and only highway here turned into a small pond and some residents were forced to move else where until all the water subsided from their front yards. Mine and Mark's yard and home are on rather high ground, so we were lucky in the respect.
Mark and I took my nephew and neice "School Clothes Shopping." JCPenny had a decent sale going and we manage to get them each some nice out fits at cool sale prices. My nephew went for an eye exam and much to his dismay, he is now wearing glasses. Everyone has to constantly remind him to wear them, of course, but in time I think he will get used to them. he picked a nice looking frame for them and he actually looks very handsome in them. He won't hear of it. LOL.
The annual fireman and rescue squad carnival has arrived. We all went and had a great time. I take it as a sign of getting older that I found myself at the BINGO table with my mother and was enjoying it more than anyone there.
Mark and I have been in serious discussions about having a child. I have mentioned in the past our desire to extend our family. Now, the ball is rolling. We are checking out our options. Mark would like to father a child, the old turkey baster method, with a serogate mother, and that is fine with me. Then, we also have the option of adopting, which we both are ok with as well. With gay adoption being such a taboo it seems, we may have to do this on the down low, so to speak. Mark has checked into adoption and may be able to pull some strings to go past a waiting list that some have. So, we shall see. I will keep everyone posted on that situation. Next Saturday is our anniversary. I can't believe it. Time sure flys.

Well, I Got A Job
As I explained recently, Mark and I have been discussing my returning to a work enviroment. Initially, he didn't want me to but we evolved to a mutual agreement. That being, i would return to work but not full time. So, i came across an add for a D.N.A Buccal Swab Collector for LabCorp and took a chance on calling them. I spoke to a very nice lady who gave me a run down on the position. It is every first, third and fourth thursday of each month. They pay mileage,bridge toll, supply me with all the supplies and it's hours are from 9am-12:30 noon. The pay is $18.00 an hour. After she finished explaining everything i told her that i was very interested in this position and would also be willing to work other days at other locations for them as well. She offered me the job on the phone. Said all i would need to do would be to fax a resume to her and she will hold this job for me. Well, it took me all of an hour to complete the resume. Fax it, and all is now done. I am so excited!!
Sometimes this position will require me going to the local jails and obtaining specimens from inmates. When I do this type of particular case, they pay me $25.00 for each inmate specimen collection obtained plus mileage. This is like the best job ever. My boss is in California, i have no one looking over my shoulder and I make some easy cash. The best part is that I will no longer be here at the house all day long going stair crazy. i soo can not do the "Suzie Homemaker " thing. I want to feel as though I am actually contributing something. Giving something back and what better way to do that than to help nail dead beat fathers and sometimes even mothers who fail to pay for and take responsibilty for the children who need them.

Can You Guess The Next Movie Role Britney Spears Is Ready To "Duke" It Out For?
Daisy Duke.....Who didn't love this good ole'
country girl?
Seems, "LA BRIT" was handpicked to squeeze into the trademark denim shorts by Ashton Kutcher, who will portray Luke Duke. The role of Bo Duke will go to 2 FAST 2 FURIOUS star, Paul Walker. Personally I think that Danny Devito would make an excellent Boss Hogg.
It is no secret that I can not stand Britney Spears. BUT, if she can SUCCESSFULLY REPRISE THE ROLE OF DAISY DUKE i will become a fan

Oddly Enough.....I Enjoy This News Section On Yahoo
I love the section "Oddly Enough" on Yahoo. Some of the stories here are quite entertaining. Like these two particular bits. Car Crash Reveals Racist Church Seems a vehicle crashed into a building masquerading as a home improvement office, only to be found as a KKK Haven. Sadly, there weren't any injuries involved. Couldn't there had been a meeting or something going on with these dumb asses at that particular time. Like a roach motel "You check in...but don't check out."
How about the GERMAN WHO FOUND DYNOMITE EXPLOSIVES IN RECENTLY PURCHASED SECOND HAND SOFA. Talk about getting a "Bang For Your Buck."
Oh wait....I know...I Know....wouldn't it have been really cool, if the idiots in that KKK group had purchased the sofa and it all detonated when the car crashed into their roach motel after the innocent driver escaped of course.

Deep Inside Of me
Another dream that enters into your dimension
That cripples you completely
And the darkness is deafening
The pain and suffering is threatening
Looking for your modern messiah
To take it all away
Let me play with your evil inside
Let me play with you for awhile
Share your air and breathe new life into me
Wadeing through the mist to find the stairway to the night
Gone are the cobb webbs from your lifeless corpse
That are reminiscent of your past
Shatter the glass that forever entraps your soul
From memories that have held you prisoner
From all those years long ago
I'm speaking to you...............feed on nothing
Perception is complete when you see
You'll never live up to me.....................2003:Ronnie/Harry Spady

Since being moved over to the new blogger my old site here seems to be working properly now. For the past few days or so I have been writing in my new blog and i feel that i do enjoy that one the most. So, that one will be my daily blog.
I Have Seen The Nude Photo Spread Of Carnie Wilson In The New August Issue Of PLAYBOY. It Accounts For Only The Third Issue I Have Ever Purchased Of This Magazine. The First Purchase Was For The Nude Spread of Belinda Carlisle. Which I Have To Say Were Overdone But Still Beautiful. The Second Issue Purchase Was For The Tiffany (80's pop fame) Nude Pictorials. Not Very Pretty...That's All I Have Say In Regards To That. Now, Number 3 Purchase.....For Carnie Wilson. At First I Was Not Even Sure If Infact Carnie Was In This New Issue. First The Photo's Were A Go. Then, They Weren't. Then They Say "Ok..It's A Go." So, When I Saw The Issue In A Certain Book And Magazine Retail Chain, Rhymes With Carnes And Zoble, It Was Not Carnie That Was On The Cover. Infact, Her Photo Layout Is Not Mentioned ANYWHERE On The Cover. So, I Took A Chance Of It Being Inside The Plastic Wrapped Issue. Low And Behold, On Page 66 There Carnie Was.
Standing In A Topless Black Corset Ensemble With Long Blonde Curly Hair (extensions). Only One Word Managed To Escape from My Mouth. BEAUTIFUL. Every Photo Is Done In Taste And Style. One Pose Not Captured For Print Is That Of Complete Nudeness. No Spread Eagles (As A Gay Guy, Can I Just Say Thank You God). I Couldn't Help But To Feel That Maybe Carnie Has Been Slighted Against Though By Hugh And His Team. She Has No Mention On The Cover AT ALL And In Almost Every Shot She Has Something Covering Up Her Stomach. Maybe It Was Personal Choice, I Don't Know. My Philsophy, You Can't Even Lose Weight, Work Really Hard At Diet And Exercise AND Still Be Accepted Enough To Get A Damn Name Mentioning On The Cover Of A Men's Magazine That Sought YOU To Pose FOR THEM. Fuck That Shit.
I Know Most People Will Brush The Photos Off And Say "Of Course The Pictures Are Beautiful, She Has Been Air Brushed." I Have This To Say.. Take A Look At The Photos Of Carnie When She Was 300 Pounds. She Still Had A Beautiful Face Then, But There is Not Enough Air Brushes IN The Entire Free World To Complete THAT Task. Get Serious.

CHARLIES ANGELS: FULL THROTTLE
This morning I awoke at 9 am, showered, ate breakfast, jumped in my SUV and drove one hour to the 11:15 am opening of the new Charlies Angels Movie. I am not going to spoil it for anyone. Just know that you MUST go see this sequel. It is a kick ass, fast lane,karate chopping explosion of a ride. I left wanting to immediately return inside to see the next showing. Each "Angel" has a plot of their own woven into the story. As expected, all of the "Angels" are great, Bernie Mac is hilarious and fits in rather nicely. Demi Moore looks hot as hell for her age and is simply scrumptious as the " Angel Gone Bad." And The Thin Man?? Not telling this unexpected twist. So, GO SEE THIS MOVIE!! Go HERE to play ANGEL X or to see the animated prequel.

School Has Let Out For My Nephew And I Am Watching Him All This Week. This Kid Is Hilarious. He Is Getting So Grown These Days. He Had Me Laughing Hysterically A Bit Ago With This.
I Was In The Kitchen Washing Our Breakfast Dishes & Singing "Walking On Sunshine." When My Nephew Walked Behind Me Started Imitating My Singing The Song. I Turned And Said "Oh...So You Know This Song,Eh, Well Sing It Again." So He Started Singing It Again, This Time I Noticed The Little "Quivering Sound" He Placed In His Voice While Singing. I Asked Him "A.J. Why Are You Singing It That Way...With That Little Quiver In Your Voice?" His Reply; "Cause That's How You Sing, You And That Lady That Sings That Song, Alex The Seal." The Song Is called "Our Lips Are Sealed, Sweetheart, And Her Name Is Belinda Carlisle.......I Seriously Do Not Think This Is A Compliment. LOL. Simply Hysterical. Kids Can Be Brutally Honest Ya Know.

" I'M WALKING ON SUNSHINE.....WOHH-OHH........AND IT'S TIME TO FEEL GOOD."
Jo From SEETHING Blog Fame Inspired Todays Post, I Must Say. The Comment She Posted From My Last Entry, Really Hit Home For Me. When She Stated That The Odds Were Stacked Against Me For Finding Love And Being Happy With And IN My Life. She Hit The Nail On The Head. Yes Sir, In One Solid SWOOSH She Reminded Me That I Am, In Fact, VERY Lucky.
The Greatest Influence On My Life Was My Grandmother. She Reminded Me EVERYDAY That I Was Loved, Wanted And Special. She Called Me Her "Doodlebug." Now Today, I Have Mark And I Thank God For Him Each And Everyday. Though We Are Both From "Different Sides Of The Tracks" So To Speak, He Keeps Me Grounded. He Encourages Me To Make My Own Decisions. If He Doesn't Agree With Them, He Tells Me So. But, He Allows Me To Do Them. And The Whole Time He Is There By My Side. If I Fail? Well Who's To Blame? That's Right. Me. I Need That In My Life. I Need The Freedom To Make My Own Decisons Regarding ME, Even Though In A Relationship, I Am Still An Individual. All Of Us Still Need The Chance To Grow As Individuals First, THEN We Are All The More Confident And Rational When Decisions Are Needed To Be Made In Regards To The US Aspect Of A Relationship. We Can Be Confident In Our Decisions And Suggestions When Something Should Arise In OUR Relationship.
In Mark, I Know That I Have Found My Soul Mate. On Our First Date, I Actually Had To Pause A Moment And Say To Myself: "My God, I Am Actually Witnessing A Living, Breathing Specimen Thought By Many To Be Extinct: An Intelligent, Attractive, Mentally Stable, Unattached MAN." I Had Not Been Clean From Drugs For All That Long When I Met Mark. But, I Had Started To See The World And My LIfe Through An Unfogged Haze. Relationships NEVER Worked Out For Me In The Past. As A Matter Of Fact, I Was DATING Another Guy When I Accepted Marks Invitation To Dinner. But I Had Realized During This Period Of Time, That I Was Not In Love With The Guy I Was Dating. We Both Had Different Goals And Aspirations. The Most Important Thing I Had Just Learned Was That To Find Love Is To Become So Much Yourself That You Find Others Of Your Own Kind, Those With Whom You Can Share Freedom. That I Needed To Stop Pretending: Pretending That I Was Busier Than I Actually Was, EX: Can't Make That Dinner Because I Have To Work, Pretending That I Was Less Asertive Than I Wanted To Be And Pretending That I Was Indifferent To Things That Mattered To Me.
The Emotional Emptiness I Had Jumping From One Relationship To Another Was Actually A Longing For MYSELF. I Found That By Exploring The Territory In Which I Thrive, Which For Me Was My Nursing, I Steered Myself Towards People Whose Personalities Matched Mine. Looking For Love Before Developing A Strong Sense Of Myself, Was My Main Disaster. I Had To Know Myself, Value Myself And Engage Myself.
And Frankly, I Still Have Alot To Learn. But Finally, I Am Enjoying Life. So, I Am Excited To Greet Life And It's Little Twists And Turns. And I Will Do So With A Smile.
