Viva Glam submission
I wrote the following piece as a contest entry for a (gay friendly) Viva Glam makeover. When I was done writing I realized that while the piece itself is about why I want a makeover, I want to continue it. I somehow managed to write the evolution of my sexuality and gender, and I'll be honest, I'm kind of impressed with myself. The writing may be ( Read more... ) -
Yeah, about that short break
It's been over a year since I've updated, life really sort of got in the way of things. I got married, got pushed out of a job and am now considering bankruptcy. It's been a wild ride ( Read more... ) -
Jinkies! A new discovery!
I’ve discovered a new love, something that is so awesome I’ve cheerfully gotten crazy bruises and pulled muscles, yelled myself hoarse and nearly given myself a concussion while doing it.
I discovered Roller Derby.
Lea works for the American Lung Association and they had an event on the 17th at a Richmond Derby Demons game. Awesome ( Read more... ) -
There is no Jess, only wedding
A metric butt-ton of stuff has happened since the last time I've written in early June. The highlights are as follows ( Read more... ) -
Please to help the mes!
It seems like we've been asking for help a lot recently, I'm not proud of it and I'm sorry to ask for help again, but is anyone available to pick Lea up from the airport tonight?
Her plane gets in from Atlanta at 7:47 and I have my first ever kickboxing class at 7:30 so I can't go get her. My dad is volunteering tonight so he can't do it, and I hate ( Read more... ) -
Because the naked ladies told me to . . .
. . . I took the belief-omatic quiz thing.
This quiz has been around since I started college in 2002 and I took it in the beginning of 03 when I first started blogging. When I took it back then, my views solidly aligned with Judaism with conservative being the top contender. No surprises there, because while I was still orthodox, by that point in ( Read more... ) -
Maybe I should update
. . . But I'm not in the mood to just yet. Instead, you get a very handy link that's mostly for quietdeath who's currently involved in a sock war at work. However, I think many of you *nudgeburlesquefolksnudge* will find the merchandise on this site fun to look at, even if you're not involved in a sock war of your own.

Sad panda
I have 4 first cousins. Adam and Jason, from my cool Tante Alene and Uncle Ron and Robbie and Christopher, from my Uncle Bill and his divorced religious-nut wife.
All were invited to the wedding (except for the right-wing, home-school-to-save-from-the-heathens, super-saved Christian ex-wife). Robbie is 21, has a job and lives with my Uncle bill ( Read more... ) -
Keep your past outta my present!
Some of you may know about my family's terrible traumatic break with the Orthodox Jewish community of Richmond. Most of you probably don't know it because it's a painful story to tell. The story brings up a burning hatred in me that I've never felt for anything else and hopefully never will ( Read more... ) -
Language Fail
I love the professor for my cultural diversity class. Despite the fact that I hate school, I'm enjoying this class because the professor is intelligent and does not suffer fools.
For example:
Clueless classmate: Blah Blah blah unrelated to topic, everyone is guilty of something
Professor of Awesome: I do not follow your thought here. "Everyone is ( Read more... )
