What an amazing night!

I am so sick of hearing about lindsay lohan. SHUT UP!

Im back from Baltimore...the trip was Awesome. I think its the first vacation that I was 100% positive that I didn't want to come home :( Even in Hawaii I wanted to come home, but this trip was incredible. And the city is so close...less than 2 hours away...

Pictures, Yay!

So much fun. I want to go back. Oh and P.S., i cancelled my endoscopy for Friday morning. I didn't want to be sick for the trip. And im glad I did.

I would have had pics of the US Bombs show at the Ottobar but none of them came out...me thinks i need to invest in a better camera. This one keeps taking blurry pictures.

Just remember when looking at this...all of the pictures are just that "pictures" everything is flat 2D...just amazing

I just found out the sad news that a former coworker and friend of mine passed away.

25 years old, father of two with one on the way. I could cry. He was so friendly and went out of his way for anyone.

May he rest in peace. Please include him, his wife and children in your prayers.

Earlier today, I attempted, twice to make an entry, retyping it and such and it didn't work.

This post is to just to let you know i had something to say, but right now i am too lazy to re-say it.

Going to First Friday in the city tonight, even though the weather is shitty. Then tomorrow im going to the Aquarium and to the movies. Sunday i am doing nothing but sleeping on B's couch and playing with the doggies.

Have a great weekend.

P.S. Bethany -- This Wednesday is a no go for me. I forgot i had Phantoms Playoff tickets :( Any other night next week you can hang??? Let me know! <3 you

With that said...hmmm....where do i start??

Last night I had plans to go to a drag show with the mo's in New Hope. It didn't start till 11. I was debating whether or not i should go considering i had to be at work at 8 am...then have class till 715 tonight. After debating for oh, about 30 seconds, I decided i wanted to go. So when I tell my mom about my plans, she flips shit on me. I cannot stand living at home. I could see if i was unemployed and sat around doing nothing around the house all day. I balance a full time job, plus school, all of which was taken care of...and felt perfectly up for going despite being a tad tired (which i always am anyway).

Then i find out my father had the audacity to open my bank statement. That was another fight. There are just some levels of respect that should be given, regardless. If he had asked me to see my bank statement, i would have shown him. I have nothing to hide. Yes, i do spend my money, probably more than i should, but the fact that he opened my mail like he had free reign of it just bugged the shit out of me. Really, it did. That is a total lack of respect. I am going to be 23 years old dammit. When are they going to realize that? Usually my father is the one that gives me more respect...but i was totally pissed at him for doing it. Plus, I have been saving money. I am watching my spending. I am definitely putting money away to get a little nest egg so that the possibility of me moving out before 2006 happens.

So, I didn't say anything about it and left the house last night to run a couple errands. I went over to Karl's to let him know that I wasn't going to go, and he knows me all too well to know that I am annoyed. So we sit in the car to have a cigarette and i start telling him how pissed i was because 1. I really wanted to go and there was no reason that I couldn't and 2. the whole mail thing.

An hour and 4 cigarettes later, I feel like a total ass for being upset. Somehow, we started talking and just talking and talking and its amazing what people don't tell you. Or just, don't talk about. We talked to each other about so many things that were so deep. Things that really can fuck you up as a child when they happen at a young age. Things that if you knew him, you would never imagined happening, because of how he carries himself now, years later. i was amazed, appalled and sad about the things he said. I just wanted to cry for him and hug him and kiss him and tell him that i was sorry.

So after that slap in the face, i went home and did stuff. My dad fixed my computer so i was less mad at him, but still mad. Then Michael called and told me that if i wanted to go out, they were willing to bag the whole drag show thing and go out here in south jersey even though it sucked just so i could go. How sweet is that??

So anyway, in a way im glad i didn't go out cause i got some stuff done last night, but i really wished i could have gone. The next few weekends are packed with stuff to do for either work, school, family or charity stuff, not to forget, my birthday also, which apparently, people have big plans for me, as im told.

I really really need to move out. Had i gone away to school, i think i would have been better off...but then again, staying home was a smart idea too. Last year, my cousin and I were looking for places to live, and after it being FAMILY that screwed me over, im a little worried about getting a place with a friend. Megan and I talked about getting a place, half serious, after she had a dream that me, her and karl lived in a place together that was "Africa"...my room was all zebra (big surprise), her's was giraffe...karl slept wherever and the family room had plants and a log as a coffee table...

I have a hard time trusting people now a days, because i put so much trust in people that you should automatically know you should trust...Honestly, I don't think Megan would dick me over. We have been friends for 6 years...with gaps in between that we just lost touch, but still remained friends. She has NEVER attempted to take advantage of me. She has a steady job. She has ambition. She's neat and tidy...LOL (im not so much).

I think after i get some more money in the bank, im going to start looking. My parents have this big plan for me that when i graduate school and am ready, im going to buy. Thats a great idea...really it is, but not likely to happen. On my salary now, if i saved every spare penny i have, I still would not have enough money to buy anything nice for about 3 years. Im NOT staying at home that long.

Part of me wants to live the college lifestyle that i never had. But part of me wants to be smart about my next step. I just have to really sit and analyze the money situation and how it could possibly work. I know what megan can swing for herself. I have to see if its safe and feasible on my end without getting screwed.

This year...after 2 years of shitty Birthdays....a few friends decided they wanted to celebrate my birthday at GayBingo.

Everyone is invited!!!

When: Saturday February 19, 2005, 7 PM
Where: Mardi Gras Gay Bingo, Gershwin Y, Broad and Pine Sts, Philadelphia, PA
How Much: Tickets are $20. Additional games (prizes worth more) are $5 for 4. Refreshments are served (cheap as hell). All in all no more than $30 for Bingo.

For more info go to…www.aidsfundphilly.org

IF YOU ARE INTERESTED IN COMING, I NEED TO KNOW BY FEBRUARY 2nd. I HAVE A TABLE OF 18 RESERVED AND AFTER THAT THEY WILL RELEASE THE TICKETS.

Disclaimer! No, you don't have to be gay to go to this event. The ratio of straight people to gay people is 3 to 1. If you enjoy campy humor and all in all fun, you will enjoy it. Plus! You get a chance to win $!!

Then afterwards….

We are looking to go out and dance the night away. We have to find a happy medium because there is a motley crew coming…Probably half gay/half straight. Im thinking tiki bobs or somewhere else like it.

My friend megan suggested getting a limo for the night, that way no one has to drive. I like the idea, just not the thought of spending the cash for it. I have a few connections and im going to see if that will work out, to where it will be rather inexpensive. If your interested in riding, let me know also

I hope everyone that wants to come can. MUAH!

Ok, so this is football related. I will cut it for those of you who can care less....but it explains a lot about me....and why i get so pumped up about sports.

Hey, its a lifestyle....

Do not eat more than three chocolate covered expresso beans at one time. Its not good for your heart to be pounding out of your chest at 9:30 am.

They should put a warning on the box.
