Mini Hiatus

Hey boys! (and gals - not sure who is reading this):

I haven't been around for a while, but I've just been really busy. I'm going to busy for the next couple weeks. Oh man, even as I write these few sentences I realize how much I like writing this blog. I'm hoping that I'll get a nice new post in soon. Nothing overly exciting has happened to me lately. I went clubbing last Saturday and checked out a lot of guys - and I think I may have been getting some looks too. Someone may have even flirted with me - but couldn't really do much as I was with all my friends (and yup, they still don't know about me). Anyway, it was a great, drunken, messy time - with limited hangover!

I have to get to bed, but if you're bored check out these sexy beach boy images.

I'll be thinking of those as I go to sleep tonight.

Hope everyone is doing well out there and getting through this winter.

All signs point to homo...

I suppose I was always going to find out who I am. But, for reasons unknown, I took the long route. I guess you could say that I was (am) a late bloomer. There were so many signs along the way that practically screamed "YOU ARE GAY, turn here for happiness" that I ignored or pretended not to see.

Here are some of the signs:
  1. Around 5 years old: I was going "swimming" in a kiddy pool, and was afraid to take off my shirt because I was nervous what the other guys would think. Seriously, I can remember being a gay five year old - can't believe I remember this.
  2. Locker room in high school: don't get me started how hard it was showering with all the guys.
  3. When I was just hitting puberty, my best friend would sleep over and turn on the tv late at night. He would try to get me to watch the naked women on certain late night channels, and I would just turn over and go to sleep.
  4. Still a teenager: always wishing to see more male nudity than female during late night softcore porn. Life just wasn't fair before the internet.
  5. Going to the beach every summer and trying to hide the fact that I'm looking at all the attractive men.
  6. Here's the kicker: Lack of relationships. I never went on dates with girls and had very few relationships. The last relationship was a result of me trying to convince myself I liked girls - and you all can guess how well that went.
Anyway, there you have it - six signs. Why was I so clueless? I guess you live and learn.

Starbucks Hottie


Hi again! Before I catch some zzzz's, I just want to tell you who I saw tonight...

I went to Starbucks (surprise, surprise) and saw the hottie I have talked about previously . He is so sexy! He gave my friend and I our drinks and my friend said thank-you...and I couldn't say anything. Why do I get so awkward around cute guys? I can't tell if he's gay or not. He had a couple rings on his fingers, but let's not go stereotyping now. This Starbucks is hiring and I think I should apply. To be continued...hopefully...

Getting bored...

So I'm just sitting at my computer, chatting, e-mailing, facebooking, downloading, etc. This is my daytime life as of late (I'm so exciting, aren't I?). I haven't been working for the past couple months and I'm waiting to hear back from school (I think I've mentioned this before) so my life is not very complicated at the moment. This was all good until recently. Now I'm just bored.

I am usually busy in the evenings hanging out with family, going out to dinner/movies/for coffee, and just relaxing with friends, but from the hours of 11am to 6pm I don't do a whole lot.

I'm totally addicted to Brothers and Sisters at the moment and I have a few episodes to go before I'm all caught up. Then I think I'll read a book. I went to the book store today, but the book I wanted was $30 so I think I'll order it online. I guess I shouldn't complain as I'm sure life will get a lot busier in the coming months. Training for my 1/2 marathon starts in a couple weeks so that will keep me a little busier.

Well back to Brothers and Sisters - it can be very intense at the moment and makes me think how good I have it in life compared to these characters with their numerous problems. I love the real gay story line in the show - it's a refreshing change from Queer as Folk or Will & Grace, as also pointed out by G.
