For some reason, I’ve discovered that some of my tags don’t work. I wonder why, and how I can fix it.

abuse, activism, artwork, bitchslaps, drugs, friendpics, fucktards, fundies, goddamnit, guestbook, heroes, humor, icons, interviews, music, news, pictures, poetry, politics, pride, proposal, sex, shane, staci, videoposts, warning, weeeee

EDIT:
Apparently they need to be one word only.

I’ve decided to adopt the porpoise as the symbol of evolutionary logic. I will begin work on my novel, The Porpoise Driven Life, title thanks to Maggie. I will have millions of dollars in book sales and “Got Porpoise?” t-shirts, porpoise journals and date planners, porpoise check registers, porpoise bumper stickers, porpoise nightlights, and posters of a porpoise eating James Dobson, while Jesus claps and cheers in the background.

Who else wants to go? I’m DYING to see this band. For those of you who have not experienced the wonder that is Sigur Rós, this is my favorite song by them:

These songs represent where I am at the moment. Some of these have been offered before. There are 28 in all, it was easier to put several in zip files and do it that way. So if you’re interested in getting into my heart and mind, here’s a good way to start. Plus, it’s just great music, the lot of it. The inspiration for this playlist (which I’ve listened to on repeat all week) is the fact that I’m in a constant state of overwhelm/hurt/anger/general frustration. Some of the last people I ever expected to hold responsible for it are to blame, in as much as they are or can be responsible. The worst thing is they don’t even know it, which just makes it that much worse. I have become the biggest crybaby in the world over the past three weeks,seemingly the slightest thing makes me cry. For someone like me who normally doesn’t do such things, never has, it would seem that all of the ‘not cry’ I was issued at birth has been used up - now, it appears, is crying time. And it fucking sucks. None of that ‘feeling better afterwards’ kind of release, just residual frustration and the like that feels like some insurmountable wall all around me. Whatever, on with the music. If anything got uploaded incorrectly, let me know and I wil see what I can do. Enjoy.

I give it a week before I start considering seppuku.

Friday and Saturday were wonderful, just what I needed. Then it all came to a screeching, unplanned halt. Yeah. Not getting into all of that.

Sunday sucked, except for the one hour after dinner that was shared with a new friend who helped make things better. He’s very good at that sort of thing, we’re discovering.

I’m having major issues right now with people. On the way home yesterday in frustration from all the events of this summer that have been so hard on me all leading up to one particular thing, and in nervous anticipation of the shit I knew we’d have to deal with once we got home, I broke down and cried my eyes out like I haven’t done in a long, long time with D holding my hand. I was fighting tears all morning long anyway, they got the better of me halfway home. Then we made it to Dad’s house, where he and Tina informed us of new developments within this shitstorm that set me off and I exploded, just flipped my lid. I think I cried more yesterday than I did when I lost both my grandmothers and my uncle in the same month.

This upcoming weekend will be spent in seclusion, just me and D holed up in his loft. I’ll probably catch up a lot on LJ stuff, finally return all replied comments, and make new posts. Possibly even a new video post, we’ll see.

Send me energy, everyone - I need back some of what I give away so freely.

So.

Yesterday at Whitewater was great, I didn’t even care that my knee was giving me problems again. All in all a great day spent with people I love immensely.

Heading back home in a while, not sure when. Lots to do still today - not looking forward to any of it quite frankly. I’d rather be back in the headspace I was in for the majority of the day yesterday.

Nothing more that I’m sharing publically, I just thought it’s been a while since I updated and figured I’d do so now while it’s quiet and relatively peaceful.

So that’s that.

Fucking idiots, I swear. His pictures were hot, too. Oh well, there’s other tricks in the sea.

This is what began the email exchange - Him/Me:

WANNA GET NAILED TO THE FUCKING WALL BY BOTH OF YOU GUYS. BRING YOUR BUDS TOO!

Um yeah, about that - who the hell is this?

I am BigBoyxxx can try to get more pics. Oh, a word of caution I am a really nasty boy

I noticed that on your profile you are partial to barebacking. Absolutely out of the question, there is no way we will consider this. While we both agree that you are totally hot and fuckable, that you list this as an interest makes us both rather nervous. We insist on safe play, however mild or rough. If this is agreeable, then perhaps this will alleviate some concerns about meeting you for possible playtime. If not, that is also fine and your choice to make, but we will not play any other way than safe. Let me know what your thoughts are on this, hope to hear from you soon.

Thank you for responding. Yes, I do Bareback and I am negative. I will not apologize or try to make comfortable those who feel otherwise. I respect each individual’s right to choose what kind of sex they have and accept no less from anyone else. If one does not want to Bareback, I do not fuck. There are too many other ways to have fun with a guy(s). If you are still “uncomfortable” then deal with it. If you guys would still like to have some other HOT, NASTY non invasive sex then I am game.

Thank you for being forthright and blunt. At this point we’re no longer interested.
