The Wristband

I was watching some show on television last week when a character compared love to those wristbands that you get at some clubs after paying cover. She said something to the effect that the band is what let's you get back in if you have to step outside for something. She said that love was like that wristband. Once you get it from someone, you can always go back into their lives as long as you want to. Just like that wristband lets you back in the club.

Many a night *or morning* I have come home from a club with that wristband around my wrist and tried to snatch it off. I have sometimes just gone to bed with it still on because it was too hard to get off and I was too lazy to go get my scissors.

I'm wearing someone's band and he is wearing mine. The one i'm wearing is too hard to rip off and I can't find my scissors. And I think that he is in the same situation. The problem is that the club closed back in September. We are both standing in line to get into a new club, but we can't get in because we are still wearing the old wristbands.

America Is Finally Changing

This is just something that makes me think about race in a whole different way. Here are 2 articles about Joshua Packwood, who on the 18th of May will become the first white valedictorian of Morehouse College in Atlanta.

Please take a moment to read the articles here and here.

I Am Addicted to.. (Not Work Safe)

Life Updates

1. I got a new phone on yesterday when the UPS driver delivered my T-Mobile Dash!!! I have finally joined the ranks of smartphone users. When I saw Fuzzy's at the blogger weekend, I fell in love with it. It's only been one day, but so far I am thoroughly impressed with it's functionality.

2. I got an offer for a new job on yesterday. It's for a tech support representative with a company here in Atlanta. It would involve no travel, which is great. Although it was uplifting to know that I can still impress people in an interview, after seeing the offer letter, I will have to decline this one. They can't even match what I am making now and the vacation time was 3 weeks less than what I have now. BUMP DAT!!!!

3. CC and I are at kind of a standstill because of one issue. He's all top, but i'm not all bottom. This kind of relegates him to "potential boyfriend" status as "potential partner" is now out of the question. Within the next few weeks, I expect this situation to come to and end. I don't want him to become something that he's not, and I will not become something that I am not. Why is this such a problem with gay men????????

4. My work trip to Venezuela was just that, WORK. I didn't get a chance to do anything while I was there. One of those reasons is that everything was soooo damn expensive. An example would be food. We went to Hard Rock Cafe and for 9 people, the bill was $780. And that's just food and soft drinks. An adult beverage was $13 by itself!!!!

5. I'm going to be an uncle again *I think that this makes number 31* and I am a little excited. This is my this particular brother's first child and there is a high possibility that I will be the child's god-father!!

That's all for now as not much is going on in my life!! Feel free to comment.

The Log-in

A woman was helping her husband set up his new
computer, and at the appropriate time in the process,
told him he would now need to enter apassword.
Something he would use to log-on. Her husband was in
a rather devilish mood and figured he would try for
the shock effect to bring this to his wife's
attention. So, when the computer asked him to
enter his password, he made it plainly obvious to his
wife that he was keying in: p...e...n...i...s...

His wife fell out of her chair laughing when the
computer replied***PASSWORD INVALID...........NOT
LONG ENOUGH***

I'm in Love..

..Not with CC, but with Rafael Leonidas!! This is one beautiful man!!!

"I Didn't Know She Was A He"

Read this story about Brazilian soccer player Ronaldo, who had a run in with some "women" that weren't really women! That'll teach his ass to pick up prositutes!!!!!

I've Given Him A Name

So the guy that I have been seeing has been given a name to be referred to on my blog. And that name is "CC" and he got it because I he's always calm and cool . He's always calm and cool about things.

Like I said when I first mentioned him, we are keeping things simple and so far things have been good. There was a time period of a few days that I considered letting things go, but I changed my perception of things and decided to stick it out.

We haven't gone on that many dates because of his weird work schedule, but that schedule ended on yesterday so the date frequency should increase. Although, I am reaching the time of year where my travel time increases.

Right now, I don't know if I see or feel the notion of "partner" about him, but he does have potential. That potential comes in the fact that he seems to be able to handle my personality and me his. That's always a good thing when it comes to dating. Potential also comes in that he wants some of the same things that I want such as a life raising children.

So all in all, CC has kept a smile on my face since March 16th and I hope that I can keep this smile.
