More pics of my place!

I am the most excited about having my own washer and dryer!

Still needy...

My new place!

Here are some pictures of my new place. It isn't all put together but doesn't look too bad! I painted the walls an orange color, which I like. And there is a picture from my living room that over looks the courtyard!

It's kind of like walking down the street with your large penis hanging out

I was reading the magazine "Out", it helped me to realize what it means to be gay. From the ads you can get the whole gay life style in one magazine. The first ad is for alcohol, the social lubricant for most things. Really what would the party be without alcohol. The next ad was for a nice watch. Gay men are known for their great style, so this watch fits well. If you keep flipping you find a guy wearing very few clothes in some very nice underwear. I think it is one of the gay rules that you must have nice underwear, if you don't you can't be gay.

After the sexy guy in underwear you have an ad for an anti-depressant. Which is quite funny, it happens to be the one I take. I'm glad I got the gay one! I also find the placement of this ad kind of funny, it is after the sexy man in underwear. Clearly, not all gay men look like this guy. The anti-depressants are for all of us homos who will never fit that image. We need them to help us to be happy again. Once you have the happy pills you now need a nice car.

So of course the next ad is for a Volvo C70 (which is quite nice). A car is a great way to attract guys. It shows you statues and wealth so everyone can see it. It's kind of like walking down the street with your large penis hanging out, but without nudity. Once you get your sexy car you need a dog, so clearly K9 Advantix is the best ad to be next. This is seriously something I want to try, I want to buy a nice car and get a dog and go to the park. I am certain to come home with someone!

If you keep reading the next ad of course is for alcohol again, without that most of us would be lost and would never get laid. I have, however, forgotten the one aid that is repeated throughout all gay magazines. That is the ad for the HIV medication. I think the lesson here is if you have the nice car, cute dog, sexy clothes, and lots of alcohol you will get aids! Clearly I am joking, but I do think it is too bad that this is something that so many gay men have to face.

I do find it odd that in this whole magazine I didn't seen one ad for condoms. I guess gay men don't need condoms, or clearly we don't buy enough of them to be a large demographic for the condom companies. If you keep reading you will also come to a few ads for gay.com, because really where else can we meet guys. With all these ads you get the gay life style according to the covers of a magazine.

New Rule

Until religions start to pay taxes they don't get a say in the political world. If you want to play politics you're gonna have to pay! Until then shut the fuck up!

Day from Hell...

Have you ever gotten home after a hard days work and just thought to yourself, "wow that sucked"? Well that's where I'm at, today was not good. First, Monday I walked into a huge mess. People were talking and didn't know what the fuck they were talking about so I had to correct them and correct the original problem. I had Tuesday off and come in Today to find another complete mess. My produce team lead forgot to do the produce order, which is fucking huge! The sad thing is this is the 2nd time in a month that an order has been forgotten, I guess we didn't get it the first time. Today was so bad I needed a beer, ice cream, candy, and a blow job (I got almost all of what I needed)!

Clearly I need to be doing these things myself because I don't have a team I can count on. The problem is I am pulled all over the place during the day. I walk in and have to put out so many fires there is no time for anything else. I could work everyday 24 hours a day and still not clean up all the messes. So today I had enough. I am setting the standard, if they can't do it then they need to find another team. The food side at my store does 10 million a year, right now I feel like I am the only one working for that 10 million. I know I am not doing it all, but when shit hits the fan it all comes on me. The funny thing is when things go well it's a team effort.

This is the first time I have ever been challenged at work. And when I make it to the end I will have learned a lot. But right now I am feeling completely ineffective. But I have a plan, I am starting at the beginning and I am going to work to a place we need to be. That means getting everything started now and moving forward. If the team can't take it then they aren't right for the team.

I'd pay you a lot, you're worth it

I was asked a few weeks back to go to D.C. and be apart of a group speaking to the Rock the Vote board. Rock the Vote has had some issues since the last presidential election. They over spent and are now down to only a few staff members. They have taken one of the largest and most recognizable non-profit groups and turned it into nothing. The group will be speaking on ways to improve Rock the Vote, and really to offer Rock the Vote how their demographic wants the group ran.

I would have to pay for my own travel and all that, but the only thing holding me back right now is not having anyone to go with. It is always more fun if you have others there to join in. I have been to many Rock the Vote functions and they are always fun, so I really do want to go. It's just a matter of find someone to join me.

I have been to D.C. a number of times but I have never done the tourist thing. I have seen a few highlights such as the Capital and the White House, but there is so much more I want to see. If I go this time I am going to be a real tourist. I want to see the holocaust museum the most. I have heard it is unbelievable. We will see what happens.

I was also reading a friends blog and he had this survey posted so I thought I would do it as well.

I would say 35, but then I should have a great career.

2. Where were you when 9/11 happened?
I was sleeping. I was in my dorm when my roommate came in and woke me up. I was kind of pissed because I really like to sleep. I can remember after that they posted a guard right at the entrance to Fort Douglas, he had a VERY large gun. I had to pass it everyday on my way back to the dorms. Having the guy with the gun there actually made me feel more unsafe.

I'm moving!

I move out into a really nice place on the 24th! I am so excited! That place is 750 square feet. It features a washer and dryer in the unit (no more quarters!), it has a balcony, it's NOT on the ground level, it has a fitness center, swimming pool, hot tub, club house, private parking, and a secured entrance. I will be moving the 23rd and 24th, if you can help please let me know!

The landlord at my old place are being ass holes though. They won't prorate that last months rent, even with 30 days written notice. So I told them I won't surrender the unit until the 30th. I'm not going to let them make me pay the full amount and then let them get it ready and have someone else move in on the 1st. So they won't be able to fill it until the 5th of next month, which kind of throws things off and will make it harder to rent. But if that's how they want it that's how it will be! If they were smart they would pro rate the rent, clean the place from the 25th to the 30th so it is ready by the 1st of the month.

My apartment is on the 2nd floor on the left side, it over looks the courtyard! (near the tree, nice and quiet!)


This isn't my exact unit but shows what they look like.
