In the past decade...
a series before it’s over
… I was sad. I was happy. I was nervous, embarrassed, elated, bored, excited, aroused, lonely, ecstatic, I was everything at least once. I grew up, more than I’ll ever probably have a chance to again. I can’t wait to do this next decade!

this happened, and it's not the first time
me: which jeans should I wear tonight? the tight ones that I look good in or the comfortable ones that also look pretty good
me2: well you'll be hanging out with straight people, don't waste the tight ones
me: but I'll probably go to a gay bar later
me2: you can come home and put on the tight jeans before you go to the gay bar! then you get to be comfortable earlier in the evening and hot later in the night!
me: great idea

a series before it’s over
… My dad died. My dog died. My mom re-married and moved away. My brother got engaged. My grandfather had a stroke, then another one. My other grandfather got new knees. My uncle got divorced because his wife was a lesbian (unconfirmed but as good as true). Four of my cousins got married. I gained two step sisters. I realized family is akward, fleeting,...

a series before it’s over
… I have had 15 different room mates. 8 of them were from the same apartment but rotating in groups of three. One of them dealt coke. One of them was punched in the face by the other, filed a police report about it and moved out the next month. One of them was the first straight person I came out to. One of the could be called my stalker, if you were being...

a series before it’s over
… I smoked marijuana for the first time. I blacked out for the first time. I took Adderall, Zanax, Focalin, Ritalin, Clonazepam, Trazadone, Ambien, muscle relaxers, Marinol, Vicodin, and Depakote for the first time. I’ve only ever been prescribed antibiotics and ibuprofen. I tripped on ‘shrooms, I rolled on X, I robotripped on...

… I’ve gone to three different colleges. One is on the list of the top ten largest universities in the US but it seems like no one has ever heard of it. One is a private Jesuit university that taught me college prices don’t correspond with academic challenge. One has a file with the Better Businesses Bureau.

2010: The Resolution
My New Year’s resolution this year is to be more passionate. I’m choosing this because it can apply to almost all parts of my life, and I can use it as a guideline for my actions as the whole year goes by (i.e. “Am I passionate about this new pair of shoes?” “No, I’m not.” “Then I will save the money until I find some shoes I feel passionate...
I was going to take a GPOYW, but I figure it will...
the plan is to read The Handmaid’s Tale and drink a 40. Booze and dystopia. Only in 2009, y’all.
random question?
can a web page be linked to two separate CSS pages? I am trying to do some jquery stuff and it comes with its own CSS; should i just copy/past it into my existing CSS?
Well, I am going to the Art Institute now.
should be fun, much better than struggling through making this website for my online portfolio! </fuck>

aren't the days between christmas and new year's...
there’s so much anticipation I can’t even deal with it. looking forward to “the last party of the decade” by eating cheezits in bed with eggnog and watching Bones on hulu. The christmas episode this year made me tear up and also laugh out loud at separate points, but that’s probably the bourbon in this eggnog more than the actual pathos of the show. Zooey Deschanel...

a holly jolly christmas
Well, I’m back at my apartment in the city after spending some time with my brother’s fiance’s family for christmas dinner. They were actually really fun! Partly because one of her cousins is a guy I knew through another friend of mine and we had some really fucked up times together (at little 500 at IU, for example, or that party at his house that ended up with another friend...

i’m proud of myself because i turned down an offer and I chose to value the sleep i would get if i went home alone. then i checked tumblr for 30 minutes, so i fucked that up. lol. internet rulez my life. (still totes horny though, thank god for gaytube)
I need to stop blaming my physical attraction for...

fever dreams are the best. the next one was sort of scary, I was driving around one of those townhouse/apartment complex places where every place looks the same and I couldn’t find my home. and a band of homely teenagers had to show me the way on their bicycles.

then I tried to get up and realized my throat hurts and my nose is not working right… I’m actually sick. ugh

and it won’t be there until after christmas. and no card. LOL i just realized he won’t even know why this package arrives at his door. Maybe i’ll send a card too.
how necessary is alcohol to life?
I’ve been contemplating this question for a few weeks now, but it seems extra pertinent right now. I’m finally feeling almost back to 100% after getting my first drink yesterday at 2pm at the Northalsted Naughty Elf pub crawl that I somehow got involved with. I didn’t get home until 3am in case you were wondering, but I didn’t spend the whole time in boystown. I was...

I’m looking at job postings online, BTW, but only for a class project. however the career-focused world is breathing down my neck
do you guys have a 'standby clothes' pile in your...
You know, like a pair of jeans you only wore once and plan to wear later in the week, or a sweatshirt that you use to layer under your leather jacket and only wore for about an hour? It would be wrong to fold them and put them back in the pile of clean clothes, because they aren’t clean, but not ready for the hamper either. They are ‘standby clothes.’ I’m trying to find a...

This is what my fortune cookie said today, which I got after my F(l)ag Football luncheon today at some random chinese place way up north. I know this fortune was meant for me because my lucky number (29, for future reference) is one of the “Lucky Numbers” listed on the back. I use this system to vet the fortunes… it’s not like they can all be accurate, right? Just the ones...
