i went to church this morning. i really needed it. i'm not a frequent church-goer, but every so often, life takes it's toll on me and i find myself in need of a visit to the house of the lord.
one thing that always holds true whenever i go is that i never know what to expect. every time i go to church, i have a different experience; but the message given is always one that i need to hear. today was no different. i arrived sometime around 10:15 and ...
after taking a little break to do some writing, i'm back on the job search again! a friend of mine was able to get my resume in the hands of someone over at adecco- one of new york's premier temp agencies. i've known several people who've worked with them before, and all of them have very good things to say. yesterday, i visited their offices for an interview.
i was, at first, quite nervous. it's been over 5 years since i last had to interview for ...

directly across the street to my local voting poll (aren't i lucky?)! i was extra cheerful to see that there was no line running down the block. however, when i entered the school, the hallways and gymnasium told a different story:
there were people everywhere! very few of us knew where to go, and line organization was expectedly a mess; but everyone was ...
at the moment, i'm sitting here and really getting into the Oprah show on sex. right before a commercial break i heard the following sentence:
"i loved how she used 'generating blood flow' as a euphemism for having an orgasm"
the word that stuck out to me was "euphamism." i always loved that word, but never knew what it meant. so, i looked it up.
A euphemism is the substitution of an agreeable or less offensive expression in place of one that may ...
i laughed my ass off when i saw this video earlier:
the only actual words out of my mouth the whole time were in unison with the entire audience- "you got eight!" ...
yesterday i wrote a bit about the desires i have for someone in my life and how i've sort of fallen into something that i not only can't really explain, but also don't know how to let go. it didn't take long at all for me to get my answer.
less than 2 hours after i wrote that post, i got a text message from my crush (we'll call him "simon") asking if i was at home and if he could come over. i immediately said "yup" in the hopes that we would have a bit ...

here we go! i just got back from the post office (always an interesting experience) where i mailed the first batch of query letters and self-addressed stamped envelopes to publishers & literary agencies across the country. aside from writing the book itself, this is my first effort to put my name out there, and find some backing for Evolution Of A Man!
so, send all your good energy and best wishes this way. somebody's gonna publish this book... ...
