In Case You’re Interested
When I write in this little ol blog, I usually just spit out something that’s on my mind, or talk abput a particular event that occured. I don’t think I have ever written a post that sort of says “here’s the news in my life right now.” It’s what I call the “Today I had oatmeal for breakfast” kind of post. I hate just putting down mundane things to be read. But, this is going to be one of those. I’m not going to dwell on anything in particular. Just let you know some stuff. If you even care.
Things are worse than I thought about the hacking situation. I don’t know all the details, but RJ has to do some repair work on on the site. He has to either move to a new host or take everything down and put it all up again on the same host. Either way, there’s probably going to be some outtages or missing stuff with the website and the blog over the next few days. But, whatever happens, he says that the URL is not going to change. Even if he goes to a new server, he will transfer the URL because we own the name. That’s a relief!
Had a weird moment with Travis at work yesterday. Only a minor thing, but weird. He’s been running around town with a new girl the last few weeks, so some of the guys were giving him the third degree about it. Saying the raunchy stuff that guys say (”Is she blond all over?” “Can you still smell her on your fingers”…stuff like that). Basically they were trying to figure out if she has let him in her pants yet. Travis wouldn’t deny or confirm it. Not that it would have mattered either way. Once these guys decide something, it’s truth. No matter how many times I say that I’m not, they are all positive that I am fucking the girl in the office who has been stalking me for years.
Well, it turns out that one of the guys knows Travis’ girl, or at least knows her reputation. So he says, “Boy, if you ain’t been up inside some part of that girl yet, then you’re a fool or you ain’t right.” When he said that, Travis caught my eye and then quickly looked away. Then he got mad (like he did the time I tried to talk to him) and yelled at him. “Goddammit, I fucked her! Alright? Is that good enough for you, or do you want to know where I fucked her, too?”
Now, some of the guys at work need to be tied to the tracks in the path of the clue train, cause at least one (and probably more) of them didn’t get it that the subject just needed to be dropped at that point. Becuase then he says to Travis, “You mean ‘where” in the house or ‘where’ in her?” Travis told him to “go get a goddamn porno.”
It’s weird to see these flashes of anger in Travis, because he is always the easiest going, most fun, energetic guy on the crew. So, obviously somthing is eating a him. And what was the look to me about? Does he think I have said something to the others? Is he embarrassed to admit that he has had sex with her, when I may know the real truth? If that even is the truth? Why did God drop this on in my lap? I really don’t need to get wrapped up in this.
Tomorrow (Saturday) is the Tennessee-Florida game. Big rivalry. Lots of emotional baggage in this game. It’s our second game of the season, and given that the Vols playing in the first game was questionable at times, who knows what’s going to happen? The game has many things riding on it. Because it is a conference game and Florida is in the same division of the conference as we are, it has implications for the possibilty of playing in the conference championship game in December. The Vols are ranked 4th or 5th (depending on the poll) in the nation and Florida is ranked about 9th, so a loss coul drop up out of the top 10. And with college football, high ranked teams get upset all the time (anybody see Michigan and Notre Dame last week?) And then, of course, there’s the Tennessee-Florida bragging rights. I’m going get a case of Tums.
Tomorrow also marks that I am a virgin for a year. Okay, not a virgin, but the ol’ bone has not been inside anything other than my fists in 364 days. My last time was after the Florida game last year (the game is always the same weekend) and it was a cheerleader. And it was goooooooooood. Partially becuase he was such an energetic lover, and built deep (
) but I was also on a high from the victory. That gives me just one more reason to root for Tennessee, huh?
So there you have my little blips of life for right now. Hopefully you will be able to surf in when you want to in the next few days. I’ll keep posting, if I have something to say.
Oh, and yeah, I had oatmeal for breakfast.

A whole year? Tony, you are probably more saintly than the pope.
September 16th, 2005 at 11:23 am
I’m interested. Thanks.

Not all cheerleaders are bottoms. But they do have the most amazing bodies.
September 16th, 2005 at 12:15 pm
Wait, what? You haven’t had sex in a year? How? Why? How? Why?
September 16th, 2005 at 5:42 pm
Thank you. Nothing more, just thank you.

Maybe you can find another “Volunteer” over the weekend. Or, is that “weak-end?”
Glad to hear your site will live through these tough times.

The site thing sucks, hackers suck shit through a dirty straw. We’ve all had some tech screw up that throws your site into a tailspin. I’ve got my fingers crossed that nothing was permanently toasted.
The Travis thing is beyond bizarre. WTF? No really I mean what IS the meaning of this self destruction that he is doing? I’m at a loss as to what to do. And yet I know what you know what has to be done…NOTHING. You can’t say or do a damn thing if you want to keep his trust. When his bubble bursts he will come to you for solace and a comforting mind. I’ll be thinking about you and this wee bit of drama.
The last part of your reclaimed man-ginity. [I'm sure there are plenty of guys that will be willing to help you lose it again].

THAT is why you need to come visit Seattle… I’ll show you a great time (and I promise we’ll leave the hotel room at least one day)!!! 364 days… WOW…
September 17th, 2005 at 4:43 pm
Totally understand the year thing. It’s perfectly fine and nobody needs to know the reasons but you.
September 17th, 2005 at 5:25 pm
I’d love to help break you of this one-year anniversary of NO SEX thingie. Just say the word.
September 18th, 2005 at 12:23 pm
Happy to read blips from you, whenever/wherever your site ultimately lands. Thanks.

It is not surprising about Travis. He feels conflicted and probably thinks his cover isn’t working now. It is after hearing stories like this, I am ashamed of a society that would force people into being something their not.
As for your other revelation, how about I come visit every 6 months.

Travis doesn’t shock me and I would pick up that something’s amiss if I heard him blurt out like that about hetero sex. Most straight guys I know just play along or ignore it - not go the hell off. I mean, everyone knows that being gay is a SIN and sends everyone who is straight to Hell, so I don’t know what the big misunderstanding is. Maybe he’s just trying to go to Heaven instead. Yep, that’s what I call a joke, so feel free to laugh. Seriously, though, he’ll come around in due time. Just keep being a friend.
As for being a virgin for a year? For some reason, that makes me happy. I’m not alone. Try being a virgin for life so far (26 years). At least you’re not pressed about it or anything.
I enjoy reading your blips into your life. It makes you more earthy and real and not just an observer.

I hope you have now been able to settle this tech issue. I love when you provide me with a peek of what is going on with men when no women are around. I mean, I know men talk about their sex lives when their lover isn’t around. But, I always wonder just how far it goes. I have to wonder when I go to my husband’s work Christmas party just how much his co-workers know. So, thanks for the tiny peek into the life of men.
