So apprently when I post from Portland nobody reads it?

Okay, so as my mobility is coming back, my time at home by the computer is once again dwindling. Let me briefly recap life since Tuesday. Last week, my friend Allen came up for a visit. We did the touristy thing around Seattle, plus a few of my usual quirky side jaunts ( Read more... )

It has been one month since my accident. Since that time, I have pretty much put life on hold. Although I can't drive yet or even walk more than a few hundred feet, it's time to see what I can do to get back to life as usual.

Okay, so I agreed to do a stand-up routine at an open mic night this coming Wednesday...in a straight brewpub. My friends have been pushing me to try this for some time now and I finally caved in. All of a sudden I don't feel that funny. I just hope breeder boys like gay humor ( Read more... )

I'm in much better spirits today. Thank you to all who responded to offer their encouragement over the weekend ( Read more... )

I think this week I finally reached the point where I feel like a burden. I normally hate to inconvenience people, but I have had no other choice this time. For the most part, I know that my true friends would be willing to help. And help they have. I have been very grateful for all their kindnesses. I feel like it’s getting more to the point that ( Read more... )

Okay, so, after getting my good news from the doctor today I decided to live it up a bit. Shane was going to accompany me to a few gallery openings tonight and then we were going to meet Michael and Gary and go out to a party at a loft downtown. I have not been out for any real fun since my accident, so I decided to go a little bit silly ( Read more... )
