I did it again. I applied to the same farking graduate program for a second year in a row. Wasn't any closer to the deadline this time, but maybe they'll overlook it 'cause I wrote a better statement of career objectives. Who knew I had career objectives?
That putting-on-a-rubber-with-my-lips-skill I mentioned a little while back came in handy again last night. Went to the release party for 'primed', a transmen's sexual health pamphlet for which I'd been a supporting model in some of their illustrative/promotional pictures.

Right on! Maybe you should also enter this contest. It doesn't require oral skills, but it does require a steamy 60 second story...

No, no overdoing it for me - I want a little color for the summer but overall I enjoy being fair.
My main squeeze was born in the Caribbean but has lived here most of her life. She obsesses sometimes about staying current with familiar foods and plants and expressions. One of our bi-weekly rituals is a trip to a Trinidadian grocery near our place. Yesterday we got these tart, orange elongated fruit that look/taste a little like star apple, but different. I start baffled by...

today i'm drinking stella. by the pint.
The Cramps said "Life is short and filled with stuff.".
There's more stuff in my short life so far than I ever imagined could fit. Good stuff. Very good stuff.
Kinda spooky how much is happening (or trying to happen) at once, though.
A couple days back Puppycat and me seemed to have caused the same cyclist to have 5 separate accidents... Seriously. We were...

I've got this little dilemma that isn't really MY dilemma. Or maybe it is.
When I was young and more often in the company of doorknobs or boneheads, occasionally one of the doorknobs/boneheads would come out with a spectacularly racist observation aimed at someone (or a group of someones) out there in the world. If I took on the aggravation of challenging the expression, they'd...

We Discordians must stick apart.

But Ms. Quickley, my lovers don't date stupid people. Quite the opposite. I guess that's part of why I'm finding it frustrating. Whaddya do when way smart folks close to you (or close enough to have an effect on people you care about enormously) are attached to conceptual frameworks that don't work for anyone?
Just saw Scott McCloud speak.
Went with the Cinnamon Girl & our hot buddy L (y'know you're way past the geek limit when you take a break in the middle of a fiery, long-anticipated 3-way play date to go see a stranger discuss comics). We devoured great sushi afterward and babbled about the deluge of inspiration & information. He talked (by his kid's calculation) about...

I've always made it a point to make the "face the audience at all times" rule one meant to be broken in my work.
I'm a huge fan of black box spaces and theatre in the round or alley seating. I've decided that the proscenium arch (that picture frame thing that the actors spend most of their time behind in conventional theatre) is what's wrong with our audience; separating them from the action that way just encourages them to watch theatre the same way they watch television. Disengaged from their comfy chairs.

Kissing freckles is a strenuous occupation. A boy needs his sleep!

I want that billboard in my house. It would compliment the oversized religious icons well.
As for wardrobes, homosexuality is one thing, but when sported by the kind of guy who would throw "fag" around carelessly as an epithet and refuse to interact with anyone even vaguely effeminate... barf.

if you were a skanky old pervert tethered to too many cameras ridin' shotgun in a tiny foreign car with a plump, fearless hottie behind the wheel, where would you look for trouble after midnight near/between Bowling Green and Louisville?
Where wouldn't you even slow down? (Nelsonville already spooked us a bit.)
