Blind Prophecy #005 – Dreams and More

Sunday, May 21st, 2006

This week, I’ll tell you about a horrible dream I had about Utah Pride, say TTFN to Ragan Fox, ask why we’re afraid to say any laws in Utah benefit queer people, meditate on the concept of righteous anger/outrage, and I’ll give an introductory explanation of my concept of diety. Recorded May 21, 2006 at [...]

Indecision and rain

Saturday, May 20th, 2006

So yesterday began the annual hell of “what do you want for your birthday?” By which, my family really means “hey, for less than $20, what do you need that will seem thoughtful and generous on our part?” My responses tend to be glib. “Six extra hours each day” or “a hot date with a [...]

Yeesh.

Okay, I get that HR people are often overworked and that in a competative job market, just sifting through all the resumes can feel overwhelming. But… Thank you for applying for XXXX’s XXXX position; we have received your application and are in the process of reviewing it. We will contact you should you be selected [...]

In the news…

Thursday, May 18th, 2006

Yup, I’m in the papers again, here. The article is about an issue I’ve been dealing with for about two weeks. I never thought the situation was severe enough to warrant media attention, but our Parade coordinator disagreed. Anyway, I love that they gave me the final word, and I love that they used this [...]

Y’all know I love the picspam.

So, this meme from *-*-*buffyannotater”> looks like too much fun. I’ve been trying to avoid the memes for a while, but this one intrigues me. Ask me to take a picture of any aspect of my life that you’re interested in – it can be anything from the house I live in to my favourite [...]

A Pleasant Surprise

Monday, May 15th, 2006

Since I’ve spent so much time complaining about by asshole-in-law (hereafter refered to as brother-in-law until such a time as he has once again lost that privilege), I think it only fair to write and say that he was perfectly tolerable, even pleasant, during a visit yesterday. I mean, he kept trying to convince me [...]

Blind Prophecy #004 – Not Much About Mother’s Day

Sunday, May 14th, 2006

In our Mother’s Day edition, I discuss why I’m a bad, bad son. Also, where have our queer radicals gone? Excitement about Burning Man, and who to choose between a gay-friendly and a lesbian candidate (Christine Johnson vs. Josh Ewing). Recorded in Memory Grove Park, Salt Lake City, UT.

Sleep is for the weak

Saturday, May 13th, 2006

So I got home from work yesterday and crashed hard. After a week of pulling 9am-4am work days, I barely made it through eating dinner last night before passing out. At least I felt well rested when I got up this morning. One of my old college roommates sent this photo of himself (front) and [...]

Conversations that needed to be had

Friday, May 12th, 2006

I got to spend a lot of time with my new niece this morning (I forgot to get pictures). I had to drive to Ogden anyway to deliver Pride tickets to Capricorn’s Lair, which is selling them for us, so I stopped by to see the baby. My sister asked me point-blank what I thought [...]

Distractions!

Thursday, May 11th, 2006

Here’s a fair description of my day: 4am-9am sleep 9am-9:30am shower and groom 9:30-11am running errands, sorting through stuff at storage facility 11am-6:30pm start to read email and listening to voicemail, interrupted to have meeting with E.D., interrupted by “important” phone call from needy exhibitor, interrupted by cell phone call from pushy sponsor, interrupted by [...]
