This Blog is a documentation, a day-to-day account of my coming out process. This is here so people can read, and see where i've made mistakes and where i've made progress, so that during their coming out they can attempt to avoid or emulate those things. It is also here, to show the struggle me and many others have faced, when coming to terms with our sexuality.

Owww! I am sorry you gave yourself razor burn. When I was a kid my mom showed me to shave my legs, water and shaving cream ya know. Well about the second or third time i did it we were running late for church and I thought "I wont use water or cream, save time" Then I put on pantyhose, and thought i would never make it through the service.
I was listening to Rage today and can't quit thinking about "why stand on a silent platform? Fight the war, Fuck the norm." Also, anger is a gift. Anyway, I hope you are a voter. Even though many of my friends maintain that it does no good, and I myself have serious doubts about the effectiveness of voting to make ones voice heard; I still do it whenever an issue is at hand.
Read any Stephen King?
Ahhh! you're kicking in the township rebellion!
Love that song!
"Rebel, rebel and yell
'Cause our people still dwell in hell
Locked in a cell
Yes, the structure's a cell
Mad is the story I tell
How long can we wait?
Come on, seein' what's at stake
Action for reaction
If your mind's in a somewhat complacent state
Get a check up
This is a stick up
Our freedom or your life
Lord, I wish I could be peacful
But there can be no sequel
Now freedom must be fundamental
In Johannesburg or South Central
On the mic, 'cause someone should tell 'em
To kick in the township rebellion
Yeah, what about that, sucker?"
I do believe anger is a gift; sorta. When i'm angry, i do stuff i normally wouldn't do... nothing bad. I just get sooo fed up, i do what i really want to. Mostly i just get angry with myself; Last new years i was angry with myself, i went into my first gay bar. I was so angry that i was so nervous, that i just did it... Now i'm there every Friday for the last few weeks. But if i think about it, every time i did something to progress myself into coming out, i was angry. In Vegas, i went into there gay pride store, when i was angry at myself for being in the closet. Then when i went into the GLBT Center for the first time, i was angry that i knew where it was but was to nervous to enter. When i came out for the first time, i was angry at myself that i've put so much time in energy into making myself unhappy and unloved. Now i'm starting to get angry with myself again. Not much right now (only if I sit and really think hard about it), but i have faith that it will grow. This time because i'm not flirting enough, that i've done all this to come out, and i'm not even going to pursue the reason i needed to come out; to find someone to love. But funny thing is that, RATM, NIN, Marilyn Manson... etc. push me over the edge. When i came out, i was listing on Manson, When i went into the bar it was Nine Inch Nails, When i went into the GLBT Center it was Rage. Just that lil push into doing what was already going to happen sooner or later.
Oh, i voted last nov., Kerry and No to gay marriage ban. Yes to casino's being allowed to have card games, that a % of profits goes to schools.
I only was a winner on the Casinos; just not in them.
I use to have a massive Stephen King Collection... only read Pet Cemetery and Salem's Lot... and believe me, Salem's Lot was a better book then movie. But really the only things i've read lately are books on Homophobia, Coming out, Gay Humor, and Gay (male) sex (medical, i swear!). I've been on a gay lit trip, since starting to come out. I'm really wanting this one book, but its a bit pricey and no one around here has it, but it is an archive of historical gay civil rights speeches.

Eh, my razor burn sucks. It's not hurting as bad, but it sill looks like crap. And my facial hair is coming back already... I think, i'll just let it grow for awhile, then make attempt 2 at it... and this time be a bit more gentle... instead of going at it like a mad man.
Gay/Lesbian: Topix.net....
Texas house passes bill to ban gays from becoming foster parents. Bill will also allow those children whom are in the care of gay foster parents right now to be seized by the state.
How dare they!! The foster system in the US is in such shitty condition that kids die from abuse all the time, and yet Oh no! Gays are so immoral we must protect the children from them.
I am so FUCKING OUTRAGED that I cannot describe it. I figured you may have seen this already, but in case not, there it is.
I've seen it listed, didn't look at it yet... busy making an epic post (ok,it wasn't that big) over "Conn. governor signs civil unions law". Which i just summated not too long ago... and made a mistake, sorta. But i'm going to have to read that
[READING]
[OR NOT! Uhhh Where did it go? I seen it just a few mins ago... i guess something new came in an bumped if off my list... hunting it down now]
[READING]
UH! 135 to 6! THAT PISSES ME OFF EVEN MORE!
"2,000 and 2,500 foster children will be affected by the measure if it passes."
BULL-FUCKING-SHIT! THAT IS BULLSHIT! I hope that they don't get away with this shit. Are people so blind? I swear, no matter what is said, they keep their heads firmly in their asses. and Taking them away from the only family they probably have known! Unacceptable. There is a video they all need to watch, i think it was called "we are family". It has gay and lesbian foster and adopted parents, and their children. It was a really good movie, and it's been out since the 80's... so there is no excuse why they should sit down and watch it... especially the last couple who had the child that was a juvenile delinquent until they were given custody as foster parents. They actually got him to work, and be calm; instead of going out an committing attempted robbery.
