Quote from blue »
I'm surprised your parents aren't throwing a fit about your presence around the child since they seem to find you to be such an abomination. Hopefully they'll stop chiding you for a long while.
I was talking to my sister yesterday and she told me that mom and dad have both been hinting at her reconsidering having me as Logan's secondary caregiver for weeks now. Dad in particular has been trying to drive the point home of how irresponsible I am and what a bad influence I'd be. Big Sis basically told him to stick it. I doubt my parents will ever really fall silent on the issue. They want me to have as little to do with their pure grandchild as possible. Luckily, like always, there's very little they can do to stop their headstrong kids.
Thanks to everyone for the congrats and best wishes, mother and baby are both doing very well and should be home by the end of the week.
And just to show that I'm not totally self-involved, welcome Sam. Yes, it's a little creepy to be watched by strangers (most times), but you won't be a stanger if you tell us a bit more about yourself.
Hmm a bit more about myself. Well, I am 22 male and live in Northern Nevada. Been playing Magic since around Visions longer than some but shorter than others. Have been out of the closet since i was 13.
I enjoy video games, magic, l5r, various table-top rpgs. I like spending time at coffee houses and bars (don't drink booze at bars though mainly just coffee). I enjoy writing fiction on occasion when I get an idea I like.
I am not overly involved in the gay community out here mainly cause I just don't indentify with them. So I usually keep to myself. Currently I am single and just got out of a very unhealthy 2 year long relationship, so I am trying to make effort to be more social with people and hopefully find some folks to talk to who I can at least have a good coversation with.
Thats all I can think of to tell you about myself if you want to know more ask and I shall tell. Hopefully this makes me a little less like a spooky lurker.

My 11 year old cousin called me tonight, which was odd in itself. I had a bit of a falling out with his mother when I called her a ****ing **** (rhymes with cucking funt) in response to a disparaging remark she made about my brother. So I was a bit surprised to hear his voice.
He sounded very upset. I asked him what was wrong, and he informed me that the kids in the neighborhood have taken to calling him gay at every opportunity. At this point, he started crying. He asked me if he was gay.
I told him that I didn't know, but that I didn't think so. (It seemed like the right thing to say, as he seemed horrified by the prospect.) He then asked why, if he is not gay, do they insist on tormenting him. Was it a vibe he gave off? I comforted him, but it broke my heart. I eventually got him to stop crying, and even laughing. We spoke for almost an hour and a half, which was kinda cool. He's wicked smart, and rather witty for his age.
In any event, I just thought it was sad.
Human children are cruel. They will intentionally hurt the feelings of each other to make them feel better about themselves. The only consolation in this is when you are all grown up these bullies usually end up with kids before they are out of highschool or in jail for whatever reason (at least in my experience)
The only thing that gets me about this story is the fact that he asked you if he was gay. Bullying hurts alot I know but I don't think it makes you question your own sexuality because people keep calling you gay. There might be some kind of deep problem there, and not nessicarily that he is gay, more that he is perhaps very insecure with himself that he has to question if what horrible people are telling him is true.
I used to be like this and the fact that it still goes on scares the **** out of me and makes me sad for the world in general.

Today is depressing A lot of people are going to college today and tomorow, and for whatever reason I'm pretty depressed about it. Which is weird because I've obviously been through it before and not had any troubles, but *shrug*
Many people are starting to realize the benefits that come with college. It opens so many more doors and allows you to do whatever you wish and have a better pay than if you didn't go through college.
My mom and dad have both gone through college and I plan to aswell. Even though I plan to be a model, I also want to be an architect. Plus, modeling isn't a long-lasting career. Your young beauty won't stay and soon clients will not ever want you.

That is plain cruel yet at the same time it's heartwrenching.
One of the earliest social lesson I learned as a kid was that if people wanted to pick on you they would find a reason no matter what you did. If they make fun your clothes and you get new ones, then they make fun of something else. Your cousin isn't being called gay because people think he is, it's because they don't like him for some reason so they'll say whatever they think will upset him. And someone ought to beat every last one of them upside the head with a baseball bat.
Human children are cruel. They will intentionally hurt the feelings of each other to make them feel better about themselves. The only consolation in this is when you are all grown up these bullies usually end up with kids before they are out of highschool or in jail for whatever reason (at least in my experience)
It's not so surprising how respect has gone down the tubes lately. Parents never care to enforce punsihment or teach kids respect at all. There's a fine line between self-defense and just cruel. It's great to have self-defense, but when you're just pciking on someone and bullying him cause you don't like one thing about him/her, the bully needs to be handeled.
As I believe, if a bully will not leave you alone after you've constantly asked nicely to, it's time to take care of the fat f***er and make him leave you alone.
Whoo, sorry. I got into the moment to much on the topic. I ended up blowing off a cuss word, but I mean....bullies are irritating and some torment my lil' bro.
The only sad part, really, was the death of one of Mr. Reilly's friends from kindergarten. this guy and Mr. R. were close even nowadays. From what I understood, his heart went septic for some reason, and he died that way. He was a 40-year-old cop, divorced, with two daughters. I feel terrible...seeing Mr. R. cry was quite possibly the only thing I've encountered in my life that made me feel absolutely helpless.
75 more days until I see Mikey [and maybe his dad] again.
One week from today, I move into my dorm. I'm ready, and at the same time, I don't want to leave.
But yes, just thought I'd update a bit. Not too much to say...still kind of not used to not seeing Mikey and his family all the time. And the fact that I felt so useless today, because I couldn't be at the funeral with them isn't helping.

And now the issue of my day. My city has a problem, and that problem is that almost every guy in this town is a meth addict. I am surrounded by it, and this since I am not a meth addict and do not wish to be around thoes that do it puts a hamper in my love life. Does any other city have this problem, or am I just in the wrong place?
Another interesting note we are a small city (reno) and you can get anywhere in about 15 minutes or less, in this small space we have 6 gay bars...and I think to myself "why do we need this many? None are ever uber busy, but they are here nonetheless".

I'm having one of my not-so-good days. I don't know why, I just...am. I know part of it is because I miss Mikey, but that's not the whole thing. He's going to be worried about me when I say something, though, because I haven't eaten all day. When I'd have really bad days, I'd go for almost a week without eating, so he gets kind of freaked out.
I'm not gonna do anything stupid like suicide, I couldn't do that to Mikey or his family, but...idk. I just don't care about anything.
My arm hurts, I got vaccines today.
I'm out...there's the "back to school night" at my old high school....I'm gonna go, see who I run into and all that.
74 more days...

Welcome back. Glad to hear your trip was fun. Though I know what you mean about differing views on what the family should do while away on vacation causing tension. My family stopped taking trips for that very reason.
Anyway, how is everyone else?
On edge a bit. I moved out of my apartment yesterday in preparation of my big move to Niagara next week. Oddly enough, I moved into my sister's old room at my parents' place. Don't ask. I haven't had a decent night's sleep in over a week. I just want the next few weeks over with.
Hi everyone. I am back... sort of. I don't have too much time to talk today, but I am glad to see that your all still here.

So as far as the bringing back old mechanics goes, it's "meh" for me so far. But I love the new ones and it looks like there could be plenty of juicy fun.
