I also received a ticket for running a red light in Manhattan, even though my car has never been there. My car is white, and the photo showed a black car. I wrote a letter and included a photocopy of my registration, and they dropped the ticket. It's really dumb that they can't figure out that the color and make of your car is completely different than the car in the photo.

Drunken Bosses

It was another weekend, another wedding. This one was for a coworker. There's some serious entertainment value in seeing "important people" drunk and dancing. I was even forced to dance with one of the grumpiest guys in the company. Now I have my blackmail material.

Shoes??

For women, this is a complicated question. I'm convinced that the amount of pleasure women receive from sexual experiences varies much more than with men. We don't orgasm as often and our state of mind can have a greater effect on our experience than the physical encounter. I'm also finding that things change a great deal with age. As for now, I LOVE shoes, but I'd have to take the other option.

On a side note - anyone have any ideas on mustering up some support from WBFO for a jazz event at the Tralf?

Epeeps make me happy

Yesterday was a shitty day at work and I predicted the day would be a total loss. Then came a phone call from the fabulous southern yankee. We met other epeeps at Bidwell Park and had good drinks and good fun. I also had the pleasure of meeting another epeep - Diana. Always exciting to meet one more in the crew. To make things even better, I found out that lilho is back on the scene. Thank goodness - we all missed her and were concerned that she would slip out of sight. The final epeep coolness of the night was when my parents were interviewed for the site, and were talking about the store they used to have on Elmwood in the sixties (where Sweet Tooth is now). I realized that they were kind of like the original epeeps. The acorn doesn't fall far from the tree, right? Thanks for giving me a spectacular evening cyberfriends.

Anniversary

It's been about a year since my life drastically changed. The short version is that I came home from work one day and my boyfriend who I'd lived with for 4 years confessed that he was a heroin addict.

Some people have told me I was strong for leaving. Others look at me like I'm an idiot and wonder why I was with him for so long. Most of those people never met Shawn.

Nobody can truly understand the dynamics of someone else's relationship, and I'm not going to try to explain mine. I will say that we were in love, and that even though he told me more lies than I'll ever be able to count, he was seriously devoted to me.

Now I'm focusing on what I've learned and how I've coped. My parents were really there for me, and they taught me that I don't have be ashamed for not having a Hollywood movie-perfect life. Problems are something that your family should help you through, not force you to hide. My friends have been great too. I've become more open with my old friends and made a lot of new ones.

I suppose I should find a new hobby or a new age spiritual path. For now, I think I'll surround myself with the people that make me happy and continue to partake in liquid joy.

Boys and Girls

No Stickboy, it isn't obvious[inlink]stickboy,115[/inlink]. Women don't want to smother guys, especially in the beginning. So they give them space. And if he calls, then she thinks he likes her. If you're not interested, don't call. Why bother talking to someone if you're not interested? It doesn't make sense to us. When you say "I'm busy," we understand that to mean you're busy. And women are hard to read?

I don't know if you're still having email issues. I have some evaluation software and data for you that my company is getting rid of.

Wedding Fun

E-Paul and I had a great time at the wedding. In addition to my blood relatives, my "family" also consists of three unrelated families that spend a lot of time together. As with any Brancato-Hill-Starr function, the party rocked. My nuclear family tends to dance all night at these kinds of events, and I discovered that my 2 year old nephew is no exception. Also typical at my family weddings - the groom's band sat in for a few songs.

According to e-paul, he doesn't know how to dance. I find this interesting since he used to go to raves every weekend.

About The Gay Marriage Thing

If I actually had the opportunity to speak to an opponent of gay marriage in an open discussion, I'd have these comments and questions.

The notion of marriage as only a heterosexual union is presumably based on the tenet that heterosexuality is more "natural." In other words, heterosexual relationships can produce offspring while homosexual unions cannot. So if the only marriages that are valid are those that are based on the possibility of procreation (in an overpopulated world), are marriages without children valid? What about men and women that have a physical ailment that does not allow them to procreate? Or those that are too old to procreate? Should their marriage be dissolved? In fact, aren't we just saying that the point of marriage is to have sex?

If anyone has insight, please comment.
