Coming out to your fabulously gay admissions advisor only to find out that [a] he'd already guessed and didn't care, [b] the school just graduated 4 transwomen without issues, [c] all of the bathrooms are gender neutral except one, and [d] he still sees you as just another of the million gay boys within the hair styling industry.

D is my favourite. Most gay men have no issues seeing me as a guy, but the gay thing seems to break their brains.

...Is celebrating our first wedding anniversary today!

We have this video.

So, usually I post when I'm either uber-happy or uber-pissed/sad. I thought today, I'd just post the everyday. Bad news: I'm sick. very very sick. Good news:

Monday--- I led a nature walk/leaf art game and watched as 20 kids, ages 4-16, ran screaming and laughing down a hill to play in the leaves together.
Tuesday--- I made chicken soup. It was glorious, glorious chicken soup.
Wednesday--- I helped a girl who was totally lost and confused about ecology become excited by/interested in the subject.
Thursday--- I can't remember right now, but there was something good Thursday too.
Friday--- WAR members came over to the apartment and we had a painting party in the kitchen
Saturday-- We had a very good WAR event on the election. Cera and I dressed to the nines. Yay going to an APB event decked out!


Yay. :) Bed now.

Uh... after watching Keitai Sousakan 7... a little while after, actually, I came up with a fic idea.

But... if I were to post it... where could I? Is there a toku comm out there for things non-sentai or Rider?

Then again, I could always have finalauraburst just check out my LJ but I'd rather they not :/

Yesterday was fun, I hung out with laura and Eric. Eric is doing good at school and working at a nearby jewel. laura is still working at teh tax place and having about as much problems as I am in finding work. Sigh. We went to elephant and castle. The castille Martini was disappointing. But the steak and ale pie was yummy. Then we walked around, none of the movies out now look good. Went to star bucks, balked at teh prices of Nordstoms, went to evil macy's and made eric try on pants for his cousin's wedding. I'm doing it low key this morning. Last night dad almost burned the house down attempting to drunkenly cook 2 sausages and so no sleep for me. Jambalaya from cobra though is the breakfast of champions. Yum. I may end up going to light lunch and coffee with my boy (whos a friend) sean today. That would be awesome. I still miss Barack the Kitty. I hope he's ok. I really want to write again but I end up getting my mind afraid that what I write will suck. I think if I work smaller stories I can write and eventually work on my bigger ones. Plus I got 3 plot bunnies for fan fic in my head with one crossover so cracktastic I may whoop my own ass about it. Gah!

So, here is my embarrassing story for the day.

I usually call D to wake him up. I'm his alarm clock. He told me to wake him up at 8, and I assumed that it was because he was going to work at 9. (He usually works at 9 on Fridays)

I KNOW this all sounds really stupid, but I actually had a friend...well, I can't talk about it, but the last time a story similar to this one happened, someone almost died, and I got horrible flashbacks today.

He didn't answer the phone. I kept calling every 15 minutes, until 9 am, and he still didn't answer it. He has been having a rough time with things lately, so my mind was worst-case-scenario-ing all over the place. At first I thought that he slept through it, but really, sleeping through 10 phone calls? Or maybe he lost the phone? I was freaking out. By 9:15, I called his work and had to go through 3 people to talk to his manager, who told me that D was scheduled for 1 PM. Huh? Still, I was worried.

I called Polly to give me A's (the homeowner) number. I called his cell and left a message to make sure that D was at least in the house. Two of them. A works the night shift and gets out at around 9:30. He didn't call back. I decided, in a fit of worry, to call a taxi to take me over there, which cost a load of money. I got out and started ringing the doorbell. No answer. I knocked. I called both phones again (they don't have a house phone, which is stupid). I was prepared for this. Someone had to either wake up or leave the house within the next half hour.

Ringing the doorbell got really tiring, so I started trying to throw coins at the third floor windows. I was only able to reach the second floor. They live in a townhouse development, so I had to keep looking around to make sure that neighbors weren't watching. I crept to the back porch and tried the door. Locked. Damn it. I looked into the empty kitchen and living room. At this point, my flashbacks were so bad that I was convinced that D was dead somewhere in the house. I actually pulled out my Saks Gift Card and tried BREAKING INTO THE HOUSE. They bolted the door, so no dice, so I went to the front door to try it too, and same there.

Eventually, I got tired of attempted breaking and entering and settled for ringing the doorbell again. Ten minutes later, A comes downstairs, fully dressed, not rushing, like he JUST HEARD ME RING THE BELL. "I just got your message," he said, holding out his phone. I ran upstairs and opened the door to D's room. He was sleeping on the bed, with his PHONE NEXT TO HIM! AND IT WASN'T ON SILENT! I know when someone hangs up on you or deliberately ignores your call, but each call went to voicemail after seven-ten rings. HE NEVER HEARD ANY OF THEM. He...well, he partook in some drinking last night and didn't get to sleep around 4, and he was in such a deep sleep. seriously, how the HELL do you not hear that?

I was mad at A for not calling me. I was mad at D for making me worry so much and not answering the phone, and I just remembered what happened two years ago, with the similar situation, and I just started crying. I just...I just don't know what came over me. I stood there staring at him, thinking "What am I DOING HERE?" He hugged me and apologized and kissed my head a million times. I told him about how worried I was, and what happened two years ago, and he said that he understood everything except the breaking and entering part. (I know, I don't either)

So I ended up cooking him breakfast and we watched TV before he went to work and I went to Arabic. This was the weird thing. I have to meet Ustaadh at 11 AM every morning for 1 hour supplemental practice(I also have class at 1 PM). I didn't go, and I winced thinking about how mad he was going to be at me for missing it.

2 weeks ago, I sent him an e-mail telling him that I was sick and wouldn't make it on Friday. He scolded me on Monday, and I slowly realized that he never got the e-mail.

I braced myself for his stern wrath (I love him but he has put the fear of God in me), but he looked at me and said "What are you doing here? I thought that you were sick!" I looked really confused, because he said "Your e-mail...you told me that you were sick and couldn't make it." I started to laugh after a minute, realizing that just this morning, he got my e-mail, TWO WEEKS LATER. And therefore, he wasn't mad that I missed our 11 AM meeting because he thought that I was sick.

Seriously, God covers our tracks sometimes. I will always wonder what brought me to D's room this morning. Was it fear? was it realizing the extent of my fear? I know that God has a purpose for everything, and maybe it's nothing big, but I will always wonder why.

I'm still sleepy and a bit sad so I dunno if these thoughts will make any semblance of sense.

The first near hour of the debate, Palin was swerving all over the place in regards to answer topics. The keywords that she used a lot (besides McCain) Maverick, taxes, energy, hockeymoms, mainstreet, outsider.

She gave a shotout? What the hell? And, she really shouldn't pull the "lose a child" card with Biden (I actually wanted to give him a hug when he got choked up, and I'm not joining the damn biden fan club in any form or fashion.)

I really don't like the word tolerant. To be clear, tolerate to me = I'll deal with you if I must. I do like the word acceptance, and we all know that ain't happening.

Biden for the most part stayed on point and made the distinction that McCain's policies not different than Bush's and McCain isn't a Maverick in regards to things that actually effect normal folks without sounding snarky (Now I won't have to hear from folks how meen he was to palin, thank the gods.) As for palin, sigh. Its really difficult for me to resonate with the whole "gosh golly gee" thing.


She reminds me of my dad's friend from college. Her name is Karen. Karen while intelligent and sweet thought that she could bat her eyelashes and date her way through her work instead of actually learn anything, a habit that she brought with her to her job. After she burned a major bridge with her boss she actually went back and took classes and now is doing fine in her profession. Which makes me wanna kick palin in the rear. Was I the only one who found it ironic when she started talking about how great our country is in regards to women's rights and yet how abysmal her and McCain's policies regarding women are? In short, you cannot cute your way out of our nations problems. I don't get folksy, screw folksy, I need competency, I need smarts, I need compassion, I need someone who knows what the eff they're doing with as little snark as possible. Folksy is as folksy does and has done for the past 8 years.

So as far as not being a total crash and burn,she succeeded. Did she give the republicans the warm fuzzies after seeing the disasters of the Katie couric interview, yes. Independents not so much. Do I think she'd be a good v.p.? Hell no.

I think I had more, so I'll edit if necessary but those were my initial thoughts.

Watched the debate, will talk about tomorrow when coherant. gave over barack doyle the kitty. sigh. I miss my kitty so i'm gonna be emo for a while.
