I am going through my friends list. I am cutting ties to people that don't really need to be a part of my life--whether because we don't actually know each other or because there is just no reason for us to stay connected...whatever...

If there is someone who thinks they might get cut, and doesn't want to be, speak up (this also lets me know who ( Read more... )

I watched that monologue again, and I'm again struck by the reality of so much. I will not say that I'm perfect, or that I haven't been struck by the desire to be "closer" to my partner by not using condoms. I've been there. I've done that. I've confused the issues and deluded myself.

Yesterday I finished watching all the Firefly episodes. I really resent that they ended that series. I used to be disappointed for Joss that it went south, now I'm disappointed and annoyed. It was a smart and funny show. Now I'm reduced to searching out fanfiction that doesn't suck to fill the void ( Read more... )
