Bald Jason's Musings
Tuesday, February 14, 2006
Went to Pizza House Saturday night with Carrie; had great fun just chatting it up; we were there for around 5 or 6 hours. It was nice to see everybody. ;-0) I slept fairly well that night. I worked on Sunday; the store was dead - it seemed like time just stopped. But there was no horror or anything, so that was good. After work, Mark was still up, and we watched some Dawson's Creek. Then bed. Monday, I checked out stuff for applying to WCC. I also got in touch with Shawn and had a really good talk about our families and stuff. I was hoping to go to Necto with Bobby or Carrie, but I never really saw Bobby to ask him, and Carrie forgot about it because she had an emergency with her breaks. After she took her car in to Sears Auto I gave her a ride home. I went to Necto around midnight (in a fabulous outfit), and had a good time dancing & chatting at the gothic prom. Afterwards I showered, ate & watched the "Old Wounds" episode of Batman. I played a game, read the news, and then wrote this. I need to brush my teeth, and I want to do some reading, but I'm not sure I'll get very far because I'm tired, and I've got a bit of a headache.
I'm contemplating going to Leopold's tomorrow to see a friend's band play, but I might just stay in... I don't know. I work tomorrow, 1pm-5:30pm, though I'll probably stay until 6:30 or thereabouts. blah.

Work was fine on Wednesday, but I didn't want to be there; not really. I was a little tired, and I felt like I was coming down with a cold or something. Usually, when Mark drops me off at work, and I have to wait for a ride, I work over, and get some extra hours in, but yesterday I just punched out and watched Angel in the break room. I took a nap after work, and later felt up to going out, so I went to Leopold Brothers to see the Moody Veto; a band that my new friend Erich is in. He hadn't told me what time the show was starting, and I didn't get to see them perform, but I got to chat with him, meet some of his friends, and a bandmate or two. Plus a guy that was in one of the other bands was a Hollywood Video patron. It was fun.
I first noticed Erich when he rented Predator 2 back in October; there was a spark there that's been present among all the people that I've come to love; both as friends, and as lovers. Only thing is that he was married. Over the years, through most of my life, almost every person that I've enjoyed as much as Erich...I've expressed that enjoyment sexually. But there are an increasing number of people who that isn't a possiblity for, which is something I didn't foresee. I seldom if ever have crushes on women, and the ones that I do like, tend to be really cool, and really open minded, and really open to...whatever. And the boys I like tend to be GAY, and when gay men spark the way I'm talking about...sex usually follows. But I've met some amazing straight/married men over the last few years, who have been so cool, or so outspoken or something, that my walls came tumbling down...only I've had to reign in my natural impulses for the followup. It's a bit frustrating, & yet I enjoy it. I felt this way about Bryan Alfaro & Solomon Davis, and now I'm great friends with both of them; not to mention my friendship with Bryan's girlfriend & family, & Solomon's wife. I haven't met Erich's wife yet, but we're supposed to hang out sometime soon, and I really hope I like her, and that we all get along, because I'd very much like to be close friends with Erich.
Linda Marie e-mailed me today (and she was actually a topic of conversation at the bar the previous night) and the Detroit Derby Girls (of which she is a member) is having their first big Brawl this Saturday; I'd love to see her go!!! This girl is so amazing, fun, and did I mention hot? Check out this story (with Linda quotes) from this week's Metro Times.
My throat's all scratchy, but I can't tell if I'm actually getting a cold or something, or if it's just from shouting over the loud music Friday, Monday & Tuesday. Oh...My phone blinking at me.
DJ called a while ago, and left me a message letting me know he'd finally seen the "HUSH" episode of Buffy and he loved it. I called him back and we spoke about his recent Buffy adventures. He just watched "The Bachelor Party", "I Will Remember You", "Something Blue", "Hero" & "Hush". Some fantastic episodes of Buffy/Angel. He says he's gonna watch more tonight, and probably some tomorrow, and we'll catch up on stuff at work on Friday. lol I've gotten almost all my coworkers hooked on Buffy over the years; DJ was held out longer than expected, but is now deep in the throes of Buffy love. ;-0) He's about half way through the 4th Season, which means he's not even half way through the Buffyverse yet (including Angel as part of the series - there are 254 episodes; he just watched #075). I'm in the process of rewatching Buffy/Angel myself, and just finished the fan favorite "Fool For Love" (#113); the 5th Season is my favorite.
I want to relax for the rest of the day, in case I am coming down with something; get some rest; read & work on my webpage;and stay in. That's my plan. I'll probably work out later though, just because I really want to.

My throat is still scratchy, and I'm very tired, but my room is like an oven. Or maybe I have a fevor? I don't know. It gets really warm in here, if the neighbors have the heat on. blah. Of course if I had a fever that might explain some of my erratic behavior in the last 14 hours. I keep doing the same things over & over again, and I accomplish nothing. This is like hell, only hotter.

Thusday is something of a blur. I'm pretty sure I had a fever for a lot of it, but I din't really have any other symptoms so I don't know what that was about. I chatted with some friends; did some laundry; cleaned my room a bit. I did some artwork later & wrote a poem or two. I started getting a massive migraine, and took some midrin, which made me really sleepy; I laid down aroun 3:30am. I just woke up feeling really spacey; my medicine does that, but it feels more powerful right now, which is odd. I also feel like my stomach is all acidy, or like I'm gonna puke, which mixed with the spacy feeling is really not fun. I know I took my Prilosec yesterday, but I just took an extra one, and hopefully that takes care of the problem. I should so be asleep, and if I don't get any sleep, I'll be cranky at work later, and more prone to acidy problems. blah.

My stomack seems to be calming down. I used my unwanted awake time to get some poetry written. One of the things I've really been proud of myself lately for, is my return to writing more often than in the last few years. Sex still informs most of what I write, but the methods by which that writing is achieved is wholly different, or more precisely it's actually retro. I write now, the way I did years ago; about people & about art, which is extremely satisfying to me. You can see what I'm talking about here.
I'm still not sure it's safe to sleep. I might take a shower with Mark before turning in. Or I might just collapse. I have to work 1pm-5:30pm. And we're supposed to visit Di tonight with Mollie, Bryan, Chris & Robert. Hopefully we'll have fun, no matter what happpens.

Everything that can go wrong today seemingly has/will. Not enough sleep, because of my damned stomack; which still isn't happy. I didn't call in to work, because I always try to make it in... but then when I went downstairs to get my work clothes out of the dryer, I found that I never put them in. I remember now that I was waiting to do that before my headache hit last night and the drugs knocked me out. Ugh. I have to call work and tell them I'm going to be late now. And I hate being late too. But I'll have to stay late anyways, so as long as I'm not more than an hour late I should be ok. Still...it's annoying.

Work went by fairly quickly; my stomach settled by the time I got home, and I had time to eat & change before Mollie was ready for us to pick her up and go to Di's house. It was great to see Diana, Bryan, Chris & Robert (along with Robert's girlfriend Kayla[?] - who knows David - and Robert's friend Paris, who we met previously at Robert's 16th Birthday Party). We stayed until about 5am. We talked, and played Rook, Euchre, & Poker. It was a lot of fun.
After we got home, I had a cough, which seems to have faded now. I also had a bloody nose. I hope Janice is alright. I ate, and Mark & I watched a moving episode of Dawson's Creek (a funeral episode). Afterward, we fell asleep together on the couch, and I woke up really spacey. A lot of that happening lately. This time it was good though.
The final episode of JLU should air in the UK today, and I'll hopefully have it some time tomorrow. I worked on my own DCAU viewing guide the other day; check out my humble beginnings here. I only have a listing of what I believe are the first 5 episodes, but I have my reasons posted, and that's a good start.
I need to brush my teeth, and stay up for awhile before I sleep, but I'm really exhausted, and looking forward to getting some rest.

So...I may have a cold, which sucks. And that would probably totally have ruined my day. Except that by the end of this day, I may have access to every episode of Batman Beyond (not the best copies, but that will make the dvds special), & every epiosde of JLU, with a few Static Shock episodes in the mix as well. It's good to have friends. :-0) I actually just saw the JLU episodes of Batman Beyond and was really impressed. I've heard about those episodes for years, and the only negative view I'd read about, didn't make a lot of sense when I actually saw it. So, even though I'm feeling less than stellar...I'm feeling less than stellar in happy land.
