so i broke down and got a myspace account the other day. if any of y'all are on myspace, let me know so i can get my friends list going...

i had a pretty nice weekend. on friday i met up with Andy, Bo and Father T. for some drinks, first at common grounds and then the top. the Qebecois Monique, late of Market Street, now bartends at the Top, and hooked me up with a double White Russian (i only ordered a single) and we enjoyed some low-key but enjoyably kooky hanging out ( Read more... )

so i signed the paper work for my new job just moments ago. the official announcement went around to the office today as well, and several co-workers have congratulated me. i begin in the new position on the 25th, which is a week from tomorrow. in anticipation of having my very own office, and as a congratulatory present to myself, i bought a ( Read more... )

so i had a dream of being in Japan last night, the recurring dream where i am back at/visiting the high school i taught at. naturally it was nothing at all like it is in reality, and oddly enough i encountered nearly no Japanese people at all, but a whole parade of Americans of all ages. Liz was with me (she usually isn't in these dreams ( Read more... )

so happy (retroactive) VD motherfuckers. i hope your VD was as productive as mine; i went to the doctor who informed me that i remain HIV-negative (i wanted to check after i got shingles, as this is triggered by a lapse in the immune system; seems mine was stress-related) and after that i took Liz out to diner at the Book Lover's Cafe (vegeterian ( Read more... )

i had a pleasant lunch at Steamer's with Mr. Hickey today that has afflicted my poor tummy ever since. i got the "mild plus" house fried rice, and it was mild plus really fucking hot. my lips burned like they were radioactive weapons of mass consumption (WMCs) for many unpleasant minutes after the meal. if i had it all to do over again i'd have ( Read more... )

so, at some point i'm in southeast asia, at a very large Home Depot parking lot, with Liz, (and perhaps others?) and get accosted by a large gang of punks. we managed to escape them, and our group quickly grows larger, untill there are enough people to fill a whole school, which we are all hiding from the punks in. at some point i step out the back ( Read more... )

thinking about my previous post about friday night, and how there is stuff i can't really remember (it's all there, just fuzzy) i thought it'd be fun to recount memories of crazy shanigans which you may or may not remember all of the circumstances of (perhaps your friends filled in the gaps later) i'll get the ball rolling ( Read more... )

this was my friday night: i went out to the top with andy and robin, joined later by chris mackey (my only remaining gay friend in gainesville) and we ended up at chris o.'s place. in addition to continued drinking, chris, sarah and myself played rock-paper-scisors (the loser being subjected to a smack in the face. this being a fast paced ( Read more... )
