Speaking For Myself

-

I am probably certain that I'm not actually speaking for myself, but I am really looking forward to warmer weather. In Virginia, we get a true sampling of all four seasons. We do not get the Minnesota winters where the weather dips below 0, or the Death Valley summers where temps top well over 100 every day. February and August do represent our version of those extremes though.

And I have to admit between the two, I'd have to pick summertime. I want my evenings back. If not, then I want all permission to hibernate through the rest of this winter. Just remind me in August when I'm talking about my preference for cooler weather what I'm declaring tonight. 

Bring on that hazy, hot, and humid. I'd much rather be posting this from my laptop on my back porch than huddled up in my living room trying to find the source of this persistent draft.

Last Night

I had a ball last night! Janine picked me up from work and we headed to Regency to grab some food and pick up James , who come to find out is a huge Sevendust fan and a lot of fun to hang with, more on that later. We headed to the Innsbrook Pavilion which looks really nice as far as outdoor venues go. There was your typical heavy police and security force there, and I don't blame them considering the copious amounts of alchohol that was being consumed by everybody. There was some band playing already out of Boston, but I wasn't impressed. Come to find out later the guy I was headb anging with during Sevendust was their guitarist. Soil came on next and I'm sold. I had doubts about their new lead singer, but he had a lot of energy. By the end of the set he was down in the circle moshing with the kids and hippies who paid for those tickets. As it started to get dark, Sevendust came out and blew me away again! The entire show was good. There's never a dull moment between th...

For My Friend

I moved to Richmond in September, full of aprehension. Many of you by keeping up with my story know full well the ups and downs that I have faced. I was very fortunate to land a great job in October. After a lot of rejection, and fear for losing everything I started my new job with that same fear I had when I moved to this city. I was crammed in an office with Kelly Stern. He is such a kind, patient, gentle soul. He showed me around and I got comfortable working there really fast. I smile when I remember one of my coworkers talking about us giggling in there all day. I had fun those days. It did not take me long to find out that Kelly was gay. He mentioned living with Jeff, and I put two and two together fast. Kelly listened to my troubles, and gave me sound, firm advice. He has been so helpful to me also by taking me home from work almost every day and taking me by the grocery store to get supplies. I would not still be here if it was not for his help. I cannot think of a way to ...

Here's a rundown of what I've been doing over the past several days: P layed with my iPod, played with my iPod, played with my iPod, played with my iPod, played with my iPod, played with my iPod, played with my iPod, played with my iPod, played with my iPod, played with my iPod, played with my iPod, played with my iPod, played with my iPod, pla yed with my iPo d, played with my iPod, played with my iPod, and played with my iPod. I know, I've been slacking on the blogging, I've slacked on my radio station. I suck. The station is back on the air again, so please tune in, metalheads. I'm obviously updating the blog now, so that takes care of two birds with one big, smooth, stone. New Year's came and went pretty quick. Janine and I hopped in the PT Cruiser and rode to Easton, Maryland to party with her friends. I had such a good time with them. I can see w hy Janine is so close to them. They're all so laid back and fun and genuine people. We all got pretty tipsy...
