Saturday, I woke up feeling great; my 'cold' completely gone; I guess it was just allergies after all. I went to my cousin's wedding reception in Milan. It was fun. I got to see a lot of relatives that I don't see very often. I was a bit shocked to see my cousin Jeff there; I hadn't seen him since July 3, 2001. He works at another Hollywood Video in Ann Arbor. I also saw Jeff's brother Jeremy for the first time in years, and met his wife Laurie, who I guess I met once before in passing at Big Boy with her mother-in-law Dorothy; Janice & I were there with our father. Much of the behind the scenes drama...or inward drama, I'm not willing to discuss here. It was great seeing Jason & meeting his wife Nicole; seeing Joy, Linda, Marvin...and everyone else. There were so many people from my past, and gossip about so many others; it was a bit surreal.

I took a nap when I got home, and then went to Out Fest later. It was smaller this year, as the weather sucked, but I still managed to see several people that I know, and I also got to talk to Jeremy's partner Danny; not sure how well that went. I was kind of out of it after the reception, so I'm surprised I talked to anyone, and when I did, I wasn't quite myself. I met this boy named Allen, who recognized me from Little Caesars; he knew exactly what I order there!?! It was flattering, but strange at the same time. lol

Sunday, I started feeling kind of like I had a cold again. I might actually have one now, as Jeremy wasn't feeling well the night before; something he neglected to tell me until after he had kissed me several times. lol Oh well... I ate well on Sunday, and I made it through my work night, though I was tired. I worked with Nate, Bill & Matt. I saw several unexpected people at the store including several people I'd seen at Out Fest the night before. Talking to Allen the night before had me hungry for pizza, so I went to LC, not expecting him to be there, but he was. It was kind of funny, but we didn't talk much.

After I got home from work, I expected I'd watch some more DS9, but I fell asleep almost instantly. I woke up around 2:30am, when Mark came in my room, and shut down my WinDVD player. I got up, and finished watching the last 2 episodes of Season 4. While I did that, I got rid of all my Buffy/Angel, Hercules/Xena dvd cases; putting all the dvds in a folder similer to the one that now holds all my Trek dvds. I don't like this folder as much as the other one, but I just couldn't stand looking at all those cases any more. I also cleaned my room a bit, and did some laundry.

It's really warm in my room. I didn't shower just before work like I usually do, because I showered earlier, and I didn't have a lot of time. I'll take a shower in a little while; I'm sure it will feel great. I'll probably start Season 5 of DS9 later. I need to take my pills, and I'd really like to get something to eat.

I went to bed around a quarter after 8pm last night, and woke up around a quarter after 6am. I had a bad headache before going to bed, and it was thankfully gone when I woke up this morning. I just realized I hadn't written in my blog for nearly a week. I worked on Tuesday, Thursday & Friday. I work tonight, but have Monday - Wednesday off, as Mark has his surgery tomorrow, and I need to be here if he needs me. I've been eating well this week, and I don't have a cold... um, what else? Still reading the same books. Still watching DS9, though I'll probably finish with the 5th season tonight or tomorrow. I finally got some writing done this week, and I updated my poetry page accordingly, which felt great, but there's still so much I want to write about so many people. We'll see how that goes.

Mark's colonoscopy went well; no cancer or problems were found. That's all good news, except that doesn't tell us what has been giving Mark such problems. Hopefully we'll know more soon.

I got my results on Tuesday, after being told at Mark's procedure that I should have gotten them in about a week after my visit. I went to my doctor's office and they gave me a copy, though I'm not sure I understand what the results actually. mean.

Before I went to the Doc's office, I looked at shoes at Meijer, and again, later. The only pair of shoes I liked were defective ;-0( I hate shopping for clothing. I find it exhausting and stressful.

I was supposed to have some time with Jeremy on Tuesday, but he had to cancel.

Tuesday night I started feeling like I had a cold again. I mean...I was coughing, and there was all kinds of icky fluids. It was gross. But...Wednesday morning I felt fine, and I was fine all day.

I watched a lot of DS9 the last few days; I'm on disc 3 of Season 6. Jeremy is on Disc 6 of season 3. He says he watches it every chance he gets. He's bitter about the death of Vedic Bareil, but really enjoying the series. ;-0) My friend Jason from online has started reading the relaunch books, and I can't wait to talk to him about them. Carrie is reading The Battle of Betazed, and I want to talk to her about that too.

Jeremy came over last night; he's still here. He's awake and watching me type this, while we wait for Mark to get his iron out so Jeremy can iron his work clothes. He came over around the time that I've been going to bed lately, so I was pretty tired. We watched 10 Things I Hate About You. When we were trying to get to sleep, he spooned me, and BAM; we were fucking. ;-0) I haven't been screwed since July, and everything was perfect. Later, I told him that when I start dating exclusively again, I'm going to miss sex with him. And I'm also kind of worried that we won't spend any quality time together, as we've always at least attempted to have sex when he visits. We'll see how that plays out, I guess.

Mark has left for work. Jeremy is getting ready for work. I'm driving Jeremy to work in his car, then keeping it, so that I can drive to work, then go home when I get out of work, instead of waiting for Mark. Then I'll take his car to him when he gets out of work at 7pm. Tonight is Euchre night at Aut Bar; I'm not sure what time that starts, but I invited DJ, though I doubt he'll go. We'll see.

I work today & tomorrow; I have Saturday off. Oh; I baked a pumpkin pie yesterday; I need to see if it's any good. I also bought waffles, which I've never had before. Maybe I'll like them? I try to eat new things... Maybe it seems dumb...but it makes me feel good.

Jeremy & I just had a discussion about food. It was fun. You know I'm comfortable with someone when I talk to them about food. That's the thing; we're comfortable together. And Jeremy has started carrying earplugs with him for those he spends the night with. lol Guess I inspired that. lol He's become quite the bottom of late, but he still Tops quite nicely; his other friends are missing out. Versatility is the way to go. ;-0) I was hoping to have time to fuck him this morning, but there doesn't appear to be any.

I drove Jeremy to work in his car. It's really chilly outside, and when Mark left this morning he said it was snowing. Blah. I don't have any footwear to use that aren't damaged in some way. If I can't find any shoes soon, I'll go to shoe repair. And see how much it will set me back to fix what I've got.

I should get going. I'd like to update some of my site. I wish I had some time with Jeremy to day...I could go a couple more rounds; easy. ;-0)

I have a cold, so the weekend is kind of a blur. I stayed in Friday night, after working over, with DJ, Matt, Heidi, Nate, Bobby, Joe, Bryan &...that might be everyone. I went to a bonfire at my cousin Dawn's house in Milan, Saturday night, which was fun; nice to see some of my relatives; they're not all crazy. I worked Sunday night, with Bill & Nate. Also over the weekend, I gave DS9 a rest, and finally watched the last 19 episodes of Dawson's Creek. The show wasn't perfect, and it was definitely time to end it, but the show really came through in the end, and the final 3 or 4 episodes were perfect; a great ending. I wish more shows that I liked would end so well.

I have today off. I'm going to work on some of my more obscure webpage projects today, or at least that's the plan. Wish me luck.

I haven't written in a week. I know this. I just, haven't felt up to it lately. I still have a bit of a cough, but I'm not in any pain. Things could be worse. This weekend I stayed in. I beat HALF LIFE 2. I finished Season 6 of DS9, and started the final season. I read. I wrote a couple poems, and did artwork for them. I was early to work on Sunday, and I stayed an hour and a half after I was due to leave, though I was not required to do so, but Joss knows the store needed me to. I got some groceries. I got paid on Friday. I also rewatched the 'Bourne' movies this weekend, which I enjoyed seeing again; I hope the 3rd one is as good.

I have no plans today. The coughing is annoying, but varies in severity. I have today off. I work Tuesday, Wed., & Friday. I watched DS9 last night, and watched another episode when I woke around 1:30pm. I've been working on my webpage at random. I should get back to scanning pictures, but I'm not sure that now is the right time. Bill Saunders talked to me about another photo shoot, and I realized I haven't been taking any pictures lately. I think it's because I'm so far behind in the scanning that to get more developed seems like a chore. I should do something about that. I like having pictures to remind me of what's gone on in my life.

I spoke to Jennifer & Jeremy on the phone on Monday. Turned out they were both in the area, so I set up a meeting; we met up at Pizza House, and were later joined by Jennifer's friend Mikey. Kirk and Michael were there. Michael is 32 as well, and shockingly, his birthday is August 7th; 4 days after Jennifer's, and 5 days before mine. He knew Jeremy as well; he used to work with Danny. Wacky. I gave him an update on Carrie. We all got along famously. Jennifer came over after the food and conversation, so she could pay for her trainer on my computer. We chatted. She really liked Jeremy. She left, and I went to bed.

I was on time for work on Tuesday, and worked over. After work I took seasons 1 & 2 of Desperate Housewives to Mollie. I was just a few minutes late to work on Wednesday, and worked over again. Work went well both days, but my cough, which comes and goes, was annoying, and sometimes painful. The cough suppressant I take upsets my stomach. It all kinds of NOT FUN.

I finished watching DS9 last night. A few nights ago I randomly watched the first episode of TORCHWOOD, which is a Doctor Who spin-off. I've never really watched DOCTOR WHO before, though I'm not trying to...only what I've seen of it is really, EXTREMELY dorky. Torchwood was odd, but enjoyable, plus, apparently, all the characters are going to be revealed to be bisexual, which amuses me. We'll see if I keep up with that. I haven't seen the latest Nip/Tuck, though I've downloaded it; I'm thinking of holding off on that show at least until next week's episode, and possibly until the end of the season, though I'm not sure I have that much will power. JLU (seasons 1-2) and Batman Beyond Season 2 are now on my DVD shelf ;-0)

Jeremy gave me a couple of calls, which turned out to be about something unexpected and wacky. Bad wacky; not good wacky. But it could be worse, and I'm dealing just fine, apparently.

I walked up to see Jeremy & Kim at Encore yesterday evening. On my walk there, I ran into my old friend Courtney Ceronsky on the street! She just got a job at Zingerman's(?), in their marketing department!?! She walked with me to the studio, and met Kim & Jeremy, and we caught up on old/new times. I got to speak to her sister Jamie, when she called Court's cell phone! I got her cell number, and I hope to get back in touch with her soon. Very Cool.

I visited with Kim/Jeremy for a bit longer (giving Kim a photo from my last party, and Jeremy a card I got for him, along with a picture cd), and walked them to their cars, where Mark picked me up. I finished DS9 when I got home. I've been working on random things since then: art, poetry, myspace, e-mail, dedications. I'm super tired, and I need to get some sleep.

I've been thinking about Josh Gerding. I expanded his page a bit, and I wish to work on it even more sometime soon. Perhaps tonight, as I doubt I'll be going to see Shortbus after all. :-0(

Thursday night I got a call from Travis Kelley. You know, he hurt me terribly years ago, but he's grown up a lot...and while part of me used to be jealous that he had this boyfriend now, that he's never cheated on, for 4 years(!)...the more I know about him, the more I feel I got off with the better deal. Which is comforting. I love Travis; I always will. But I'm not in love with him, and I doubt he could hurt me now. I've come a long way; we both have. And I would love for us to be close friends, but I would never choose to be with him now. Even if the past had never happened...we just don't fit anymore. I hope we can be friends. And I'd love to get to know his boyfriend. I sent the boyfriend (Matt is his name) a myspace message, but he hasn't responded to it yet. ;-0( We'll see how that plays out.

I was early for work again on Friday. I worked with DJ, Nate, Bobby, Bill &...was there anybody else? lol I ate Little Caesars for lunch. I worked over, and then Mark & I got some groceries, though mostly for me as Mark forgot his wallet. I spoke to Carrie on the phone for awhile. I left my Grandmother a voicemail. I got a voicemail from my old friend Ian saying he needed to talk to me, and to call him back after 9pm, but it was only about 7pm. When we got home, I had a snack; read my e-mail, and took a nap.

When I woke up I decided that I'd go to Necto to see Robert Mitchell, as I knew he'd be there, and I might not see him again anytime soon. I ate, and called Ian back. He asked me about the last time I got tested, and if I'd been tested for all STD's and I told him I had. It was an odd question, as Ian and I haven't hung out in a long time, and we never had sex. He then made it clear that he thought I had infected him with something, and that I had done so by fucking him!?! I then said: "But Ian, we've never had sex!". lol Turns out he's called the wrong Jason. I'm only posting this here, as I don't believe anyone who reads this, or is even close to me really knows who Ian is. lol

I shaved and showered, and where my red & black vinyl priest outfit. I ran into Robert outside the bar. Turns out Necto is really dicking him over, but so is Backstreet...so he probably won't ever be back for another show, which sucks. I chatted with him and Garret, and then went into the bar, and dropped off the priest part of my outfit at the coatcheck, so I could dance for a bit.

Brendan was there, and looking fantastic! He shaved off his beard, which I never loved, and bleached his hair blond, and was all in black, with some makeup on! Yum. His boyfriend was there too, and I danced with them both...along with a boy named Aaron, who was dressed as Boba Fett...or was it Jango? I don't know. I never saw his face, and I don't even know if he was a he, but s/he had a really nice ass. I chatted with Anthony, Becky gave me a free drink, I saw Craig (drunk of course) and chatted with tons of people. Andy was there in drag, and took our picture which will be on his blog soon, I'm sure. I had a really good time, and didn't cough once.

I left about 15 minutes early, as I was really hot (I had got the priest jacket out of the coat check so people could see me in it), and I wanted to go home. As I was about to leave, Keevan gave me a hug goodbye (he was dressed as Dorothy Gale) and my right earing got ripped off in his wig! It didn't hurt my ear too much, and I've been wanting new jewelry for ages, so I'm going to go look for some tomorrow (probably).

I'm going to take a shower, and then probably get caught up on some of my reading.
