about me
Hey, there how you doin"
Me, I am doin alright, it has been a hell of a year. I felt a lot of pain, delt with most of it in productive ways. I have a lot of growth. Found more of my center, and well you know decided that I want to live and love some more.
I am back and slighty new and improbed. More committed, and less attached. I am not sure what my future will hold but it will be right for me, and hopefully we will be together more.
How are things for you?
I am trying to keep growing, and learning. I am knee deep in lots of independent study. I am trying to learn more, to embrace ideas and knowledge. .
What do you really want?
I want ot fall in love, I want initmacy, closeness, tenderness. In a world hell bent on destruction, I want to live life, love fiercely and heal myself. I need to do what I can to heal the world, and the people in it, it might just be one at a time or a few in the course of my life, but something good must come of this. It sounds cheezy sure, but fuck it I am a romantic.

My Blog

I survived. That is almost all I can say. My primary relationship of 10+ years has become just a friendship. We will always be friends, but the deep grounded commitment of our partnership is over. It has been rough.
Pictured above is Pete Morse, 1970-2007. i buried my best friend in January. He died from an OD, which was just a fricking nightmare. He always hid his use from me, or it just was not part of our relationship together. We were drinking buddies, dancing buddies, and we jus... read more

New Orleans, why we need to give a damn!

This is a trilogy, no maybe not. But I feel like
there are so many angles to look at what is happening
there and has happened there. I went there in a
particularly open state of mind, thinking that people
are the same everywhere you go and things were
probably on the return there...well first off people
are not the same everywhere you go and things there
are not returning to normal.

The People of New Orleans...

They are awesome, fun... read more

I have been a little remiss in looking at tribe, I plan to continue that situation for a while. but just to let you all know, I am coming out of the funk, that has been hanging around for a while. I am pretty sure that things aren't going to get better and that we are all doomed but personally I am transforming yet again. I cannot accept that we don't have impact and that my life is here to work in an office and be bored or ahored by the world. I definately do not want to take life for gr... read more

Um I have been thinking about misery lately, and how
misery is this essential part of the human condition
that prevades time and culture. It is depressing, but
maybe in being depressed about it, it feeds the
sickness...the negative part of the world that feeds
on fear and hatred and materialism. I am pretty
certain at this point that there is energy or forces
that are working to cause suffering and to create
disasters and polarize the world. There are people
who view the hurricane... read more

Hey folx,
this is my first blog entry and it has been a really depressing week. There is the whole nightmare in new Orleans and then 3 people in related community died or were killed in the last couple weeks.
I wanted to say goodbye to 2 of them, one was Biscut a member of the The Dicks, OG queer punk band from Austin. He was a really crazy queer, who once wore a prom dress and sash that said Mis. Texas to a county fair in Texas, he also wore a swimsuit to a local grocery store and layed... read more
