So I'm sitting here watching Jurassic Park. Love this movie. It is excellent unlike its predecessors #2 & #3!

Tommi's parents got to town today. I was so stressed over it. I'm not real sure why. I mean hell they aren't my parents! They turned out to be really nice people. Very down to earth and easy to talk to.

Kinda got me a little depressed by the end of the night though. For some reason meeting parents makes me want a relationship. I don't know why. Maybe cause it makes me think of the whole family thing. That's the only part of my str8 life that I miss. I had a family. I'll be in a relationship when it's time though. I need to have a little patience!

It looks like I'm going to get to go to Madonna after all. I'm obviously excited about that one! *does a little dance* I knew I had to do whatever to get there. If I didn't I would have probably been the most depressed little boi in the world on those concert nights! Now I can be a happy boi!!!! *Madonna* *Madonna* *Madonna*

I GOT THE TICKETS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 

Stephen & Chad .......... MADONNA!!!!!!!

So yeah, I'm just a little excited!  LoL

What else is going on? Well in a few more days I'm in NYC! My people! The fun I'll have. I'm also gonna meet this adorable boi for the first time. I'm rather excited about that.

The only other thing is work. Basically this week has been me getting prepared for the rest of the summer. Getting plans and stuffs. It still amazes me that I'm gonna be right there in club seats for MADONNA!!!
 

Ok I'll shut up now.............Byes! :O)

It was absolutely fabulous! We took forever to leave Reston. Had to stop at the store and have brunch. The road trip was excellent. Traffic wasn't that bad at all. We were all amused by the road signs in Jersey! Takes so little! LoL

So we get to the city and check into the hotel. This hotel - Oi Vey!!! My walk in closet is larger than this thing. But whatever. ITS NEW YORK!

We did the first touristy thing I've ever done in NYC. We went up to the Empire State Building. It was pretty cool. I could see the whole city from there. It made me realize that it wasn't any bigger than DC, just taller!
We walked around, shopped, ate, drank, yadda yadda yadda. I think I was in too big of a rush for the next day for me to care! Hehehee

One thing that I thought was cool - Saturday I was walking around looking for a freakin' ATM, talking (bitching) on the phone, I got stopped by a local New Yorker and asked directions. I thought it was the coolest thing. I must not have looked like a tourist! Woo Hoo!

So we got to a little city outside of Albany in the early afternoon on Saturday. After we checked into the hotel I called my friend, Scott to let him know I was there. Shortly afterwards, he got there. His mom dropped him off. She was precious! She talked all NEW YORK!!!! Hehehee

So we dropped Chad off at the mall so he could do some shopping then Scott and I got a chance to talk and get to know each other more. He was so extremely sweet. He was one of the most adorable bois that I've ever met. And his eyes! OMG!!!! Beautiful!

Sunday we all got up and went to Schenectady (Love that name!). It was tiny, but nice. Stopped by the local museum, chatted with the locals, and went to a coffee shop. It was just very quiet and relaxing.

After that I dropped Scott off at home and Chad and I went to Albany to hop and check out the local scene. Reminded me a lot of Richmond. It was alright there.

Alright enough of this.......I'm rather tired of typing! I had a great time and can't wait to do it again!
 

*kisses*

Today was very non descript.

Tommi's parents came back to town. I had diner with them. They are nice people. I'm just not too sure how to interact with them. A lot of my friends are the parents age, but I can say whatever to them. I.E. talk about sex, bois, alcha-ma-hal!, whatever, but with parents you have to be more reserved. I'm just not used to that is all. Again they are great people though!

I did forget to mention the great news that happened over the weekend. Jason finally moved out. Yes he stiffed us the rent money and took some of my stuff, but who cares. HE'S GONE!!!!

The only thing that really sucked though is that now I can't go see Madonna. Had to pay the rent with the ticket money. :o(

Oh well...the concert will be on HBO in a few weeks and of course I still have MADONNARAMA!

Hehehee

Last night was a blast. It was Madonnarama at Velvet. I've been waiting for that party for a year now. Last year I went with some friends and one of them got sick and had to leave at 1. So I didn't get to stay and enjoy it. This year however!!!!!! Woo Hoo!!!!! Partied ALL damn night!

I had a lot to drink. I got up on one of the boxes and danced. It was pretty cool. I even danced with a girl. Go figure. Girl could do some dancing too I tell ya! LoL

I get to do it al over again next week. Chad and I are gonna be the pathetic bois that we are and sit outside the MCI Center during the concerts. Then of course we'll be at the after hours party at Velvet. Hehehee

*kisses*

This week is going to slow. I've been counting the days down till tomorrow nights concert. I don't think I've ever been this damn excited over something like this. I feel sorry for all my friends who have listened to me talk about not much more than Madonna. (I'm sorry!)

It's almost over though. Chad and I are going to go to the MCI center and find a damn scalper so we can get in that show if its the last thing I do. I plan on having stories to tell after all this! LOL

What else is going on? Not a whole lot....Ooooo I'm rather excited about the fact that my cute boi from NY, Scott, is coming in a few weeks to visit for a while. That's gonna be great! :-D

It was the best show I've ever seen! Only Madonna can take country and make it fabulous!

The show was delayed a few hours, but it's all good. For Madonna, we'll cope! Hehehee After a few songs she says hi and in a twangy Dolly Parton voice says "I'm sorry y'all. I was stuck in that plane for 4 hours. I busted my ass to get here. SHOW SOME APPRECIATION!"

The girl made it up to me that I didn't get some Human Nature at the club the week before. Her doing it live was much much better!

I just can't say enough..... Really here....She did Holiday, Secret, Candy Perfume Girl, BEAUTIFUL STRANGER, and Music like I've never imagined! Yeah it was a good night....... Oh yeah and did I mention.... Me.....Floor seats!

Grant it I had to sit next to str8 people *shudder*, but I was damn close to Madonna! There was this old lady next to me being all serious and stuffs. I was all like GO HOME! Hehehee

Yesterday sucked beyond belief. I didn't get to bed till 4 the night before and then got up to go to work at 8. I was dead tired. When I finally got home from work I went to eat with Tommi and attempted to go to his Friend's house in MD.

Trying to get home from there was awful. Basically the whole metro area was in gridlock. We attempted to go through the city, but they had shut down all but one exit out. Stupid stupid people.

By the time I got to the club I was dead. I drank enough lick-a-ma-hal to keep me dancing in the blue room, but soon as the main room opened I went up to VIP and was all falling asleep!

The only thing I really remember is Cookie (the one in bad drag) trying to molest my friend Chad. I was all "Cookie, I used to love you and all, but don't make me slap you!"  Damn and I thought I was all preverted!

LoL

Not too much going on this week. I've been bored. Just looking for a new job.

Few more days and Scott will be here. I can't wait for that. It should be fun. Perfect boi to cuddle with!

Well today was good. I went to an interview for a company in Maryland. I really liked the place. I thought that it would be a blah position, really I just went for the hell of it. Seems nice. I'm gonna go in again this week and spend some time there to make sure I like it before I accept the offer. The one thing I am loving about it is the fact that it's 10k more a year! Hehehee

My friend Scott got into town yesterday. I was rushing to make it to Union Station to get him. Thank god his train was late so we both got there at the same time!

We had a really good night together. Just kind of chilled out at home,  got pizza, watched TV, and just kind of caught up. I missed him. So it was nice! :o)

Well I was going to go to Kings Dominion today, but it looks rather dreary out. Who knows, maybe in a few hours it will clear up. Either way I'm going to go out and do something. I'm sick of sitting around the house!

So I accepted the offer at the new company. It is so laid back there. I also got a 10k raise to go. Hell, I couldn't really say no to that! LOL

Not much else going on.....at least nothing that I'm writing! Ooooo I did do one thing last night that was cool. I had sex out on the balcony during a rain storm. First of all, it felt really good. Second, we had an audience! LOL about 3 of my neighbors ended up watching us. It was funny, but I didn't care! :oP

So I went to Kings Dominion yesterday with Scott. We stood in line for about an hour for the Super Sonic Coaster, just for them to say that it is broken down. I wasn't too happy with that one. That thing was the only reason that I wanted to go there.

What really disturbed me though was when I went to my best friend’s house later that night. I introduced Scott to her and she loved him. However she went on and on about what an ass I am to any of my boifriends. I was upset that she would say that. I've basically only dated 2 other guys. One of which went on for almost 3 years and there were ups and downs with that. And reasons for every action I took. All of which I asked her advise through the whole sorted affair.

The second relationship was only a month or so and there really wasn't a chance in that for either of us to be asses to each other. We just knew that it was not meant to be. We were only meant to be friends so we split up.

Where she gets that I'm an ass is beyond me.....Oh fuck it! I've bitched about this long enough. There was more, but I don't feel like discussing any more.... :-P

*kisses*

I guess my question to myself is - Will I ever actually trust anyone? I don't think that I've ever been in a relationship where I believed much of anything I was told. Of course this matter didn't get any better when my last boifriend did nothing but lie.

Oh wells! *giggle* I'll deal.

Last night was soooooooo great! I thought it was going to be the biggest shit night of all time. I had a fabulous evening planned. My friend Chad was supposed to come up and go to the foam party at Velvet with me. I really needed to get my ass out of the house and party. It just had to be done. Well at the last minute Chad decided that he was going to Zigfields with his Mom instead. Yes he invited me to go there with him, kind of (didn't really feel sincere!)

Well it was a little late to find someone to go with. So I was gonna go to Zigs with him. Hell if I was sitting home. Then at the last minute I was like Fuck It! I'll go to Velvet on my own. What the hell can it hurt? I know I'll be drunk enough to be Happy!

So I got there and just felt at home. I danced my ass of. I even talked with bois. God knows I'm normally to shy to chat to people. I was all social, at least for me!, last night! I had BOIS, Liquor, Dancing, Foam, wet, Bois, Liquor, bois .... Hehehee!!!!

I feel so aacckkk today though. Yet happy!

This was a very very interesting weekend. Got up at 8 am on Saturday and didn't go to bed till 1am this morning!

Had to pack all day Saturday. We had a helper there that decided at the last minute (without doing anything) that he had to go home. So my Roomie and I had to drive all the way to DC to take him home. Little pissed about that! Hehehee

Well it was time to go to the club and not everything was done yet. So we knew that we'd have to do more when we got back in the morning.

Well lord have mercy! Stephen as always had a bit to drink before/ on the way to the party. Well I was feeling good! Then like a dumb ass I drank more when I got there. I got really sick. That was the first time for me.

Thank god I had my Roomie to look out for me. I eventually got back to the party later in the night. I just kind of chilled out there. Had some fun. Met some people.

Around 6 we went home to finish packing. Well that went GREAT! We did get some help for that. I was introduced to Miss Tina. She is fabulous! That girl knows how to work. We had the whole place done and ready to go by noon!

Around 2 the movers came and we were all moved by 8 that night. Around 11 we went back for the little things and the puters. One of the neighbors there made the mistake of trying to bitch at me for moving at night. Well.....I was tired enough. I went off on him. That was fun. He complained that people were trying to sleep. That was a very valid point, but HE WASN'T! He was fully dressed, all the lights on in the house, and the TV on. Dumb ass just wanted to cause problems. At least its all over though!

*passes out* Night Night!

All my prayers and thoughts go out to the people that lost family and friends in this horrific event.

I woke up this morning to the unimaginable news that the World Trade Center has been hit. In my sleeping morning stupor thought there was a documentary on the news about the ’93 bombing. Then at 9:03 I heard them all gasp in shock as the second plane went into the other tower. I stared at the screen in disbelief. It was all just a dream. Then before I had a chance to comprehend anything - the attack on the Pentagon. I was at that moment, scared. I didn’t understand how this could happen.

Emergency plans that you've only seen in movies went into effect. The leaders of the country were taken to secure places. My city closed down. A state of emergency was declared across the mid-Atlantic region of America. My roommate and I sat glued to the TV, waiting for the president to come back. For him to give us some words. We just wanted him to say something. (He of course never did! He’s an inept moron.)

Mayor Giuliani and Governor Pataki were amazing during the whole thing. Rudy came on many times, even though he himself had been in one of the buildings just hours before, to give us words of hope and excitement. The mayor of NYC is an amazing man. He kept telling the people of New York that they were the greatest people on earth, just like a coach would. He cheered them on and made the city feel good. Everyone interviewed in the city said at some point “This will not keep us down. We will survive.”

That’s an incredible statement. No other place in the world could look like a war zone and still be able to say that. The scene I saw did not even look like something in America. It looked like something from a third world country. The skyline of New York is sadly changed forever. I’m very happy that I had the chance to see those building many times before today. No matter what they rebuild it’ll never look the same.

I’m always good at not paying attention to the human portion of these kinds of events, but this morning I feel extreme pain and sympathy for the family of, friends of, and people inside and around these buildings. It just isn't fair…

Dear Heavenly Father,

We are moved by the alarming news and crisis that our country is facing. This, the greatest nation, founded in the belief "In God We Trust" & the "Land of the Free". Please have mercy on those suffering, hurting and in fear, and give wisdom & strength to those who are assisting. May the forces of evil be broken by your power and may we humble before thee, our strength and refuge. Give wisdom to all our President & our leaders and bring your comforting peace through the power of your Holy Spirit. Help us here to reach to those that have been affected by this tragedy.

In the name of our Lord and Savior, Christ Jesus. AMEN

*hugs*
