Vibrant.(Still) Unrepentant. Badass. Old. Queer

Sometimes I wonder why I even bother to interact with people at all ... Y IM'ed me Friday night. I tried to be polite (really!). Then, this happened: Y: whats ur new years resolution? VUBOQ: i haven't made any Y: why not? maybe it will do you good. VUBOQ: i'm perfect already. Y: *rolling eyes* Y: it's a nice way to get yourself motivated about something VUBOQ: i'm sure it is. Y: fine. Y: its amazing how resistant you are for anything that resembles initiative or pro-activity VUBOQ: it's amazing how easily you project your insecurities on me. Y: amazing indeed Y: true! im afraid im gonna be unemployed for a prolonged period -- and look! a perfect projection! VUBOQ: so it would seem I, then, logged off. Y txt msg'ed me a few minutes later: "sorry. didn't mean to upset u. too much ;-)" UGH. Srsly, I am not making any resolutions this year. Although I am thinking of making a list of things I wish to accomplish. But, I did not feel it necess...

Last night, sometime after the movie and before teh secks, I was surfing Facebook (Scramble! Scrabulous!), and -if you haven't noticed- Facebook sometimes suggests friends ... as in "You Might Know This Person. Friend Them Now, Kitten!" We interrupt this post to say: OMG!!! Puntabulous AND Someone in a Tree friended me!!!! *squeeeeeeeee* *ahem* Anyway, Facebook "You might know this person"'ed me. I looked at the guy's picture and was all, "YUMMY. I hope I do." A little research later, I discovered we went to High School together, but I didn't remember him. I dug out my high school yearbook (yes, I still have them) and looked up his picture. And, my picture, and OMG. I was SO young! And, like, totes goofy. I was not the towering figure of VUBOQliness you see before you today, fer sure. It turns out this "You might now this person" person was on the football and track teams. Tres sporty! Which is probably why I didn't know him...

*Today is Meat-Free Monday. Do your part for the environment by enjoying a meat-free meal! I'll be having leftovers from last night (gazpacho and squash concoction ... possibly with some more squash thrown in). *While at the coffeehouse yesterday, I uploaded several of my short stories in progress to Google Documents [during which time, I learned that a Y under stress tends to be a little ... snippy ]. If anyone would like to read the two stories that are closest to being finished ( Hikkikomori and Four Letter Words ) let me know and I'll send you a viewer invitation (or whatever they're called). *[Don't forget] I'm on Facebook now. Find me. Friend me. Make me feel (more) loved.
