I'm with ya, bud.

When things get really bad, I put the "noisiest" people on ignore... and then I ignore the threads that are getting explosive. It can still be fun here if you're picky and choosy about where/when you go.

"Exploring the gay side" probably won't be enough.

It's a cliché to say that 'money can't buy happiness': ask anyone who's living in destitute poverty, and they'll tell you that money does correlate with happiness up to a certain point.

What I'm getting from this post, though, isn't just a lack of happiness, but a hollow self-esteem. Honestly, I can't imagine a person using the size of their television as an indicator of how successful they are.

I'm currently a director of a summer program for underprivileged high school students. The pay -- only $450 a week -- is minuscule. I drive a 2002 Dodge Neon. But out of the rising seniors that were in the program last summer, all but one went on to college, and four of them won National Science Foundation fellowships. I wouldn't trade that for a 65-inch plasma TV.

Explore your sexuality, by all means. But finding happiness in who you fuck is as unlikely as finding it in what you own. You've got a much greater challenge ahead of you than finding a guy to diddle around with.

Nicely done.
Takes power from what you don't say.
Lots of echoes and reverberations.

Situation 1: You are at the gym on your own and when you get to the showers, there are about 8 people you do not know there already.
no problem with this at all
Situation 2: You are at the gym on your own and when you get to the showers, there are some strangers and 2 others who you know from somewhere there already. ( i.e. somebody you sometimes see in your neighbourhood but who you do not know personally, or somebody who often catches the same bus as you do in the mornings )
this has happened to me many times and again I have no problems with this
Situation 3: You are at the gym on your own and when you get to the showers, there are some strangers and two people you know by name there already. ( i.e. neighbour, or somebody who works at the same place as you do )
would make for a longer shower because I know two of them, so more opportunity for a laugh and a chat while showering, no problem being naked here
Situation 4: You are with a group of male friends on a boat trip for the day. The suggestion of you all going skinnydipping comes up.
I'm up for that
Situation 5: You are with a group of male co-workers on a boat trip for the day. The suggestion of you all going skinnydipping comes up.
I'd be wondering just who suggested this and why, but, would again quite happily strip off and have no worries with being naked
Situation 6: You are with a group of complete strangers of both sexes on a boat trip for the day. ( think package deal vacation) The idea of you all going skinnydipping comes up.
If I was alone I'd maybe feel slightly self conscious but if I was with someone I knew then It would be no problem
Situation 7: You are with a group of complete strangers, all male, on a boat trip for the day. ( think package deal vacation )The suggestion of you all going skinnydipping comes up.
Much easier to get naked for me in front of other guys than it is for me to be naked in front of female strangers, so again no problem with getting naked
Situation 8: You are at a garden party with some close friends of both sexes. When everybody have had a few drinks, and are feeling the effects of the alcohol, somebody suggests you all get naked and jump in the pool.
One guy goes first and you can see that he is clearly smaller than you are in the trouser department.
size of other guys doesn't bother me in the least, I'd be second in the pool
Situation 9: You are at a garden party with some close friends of both sexes. When everybody have had a few drinks, and are feeling the effects of the alcohol, somebody suggests you all get naked and jump in the pool.
One guy goes first and you can see that he is clearly bigger than you are in the trouser department.
again no problem getting naked regardlesss of anyones size
Situation 10: You are at a garden party with some close friends of both sexes. When everybody have had a few drinks, and are feeling the effects of the alcohol, somebody suggests you all get naked and jump in the pool.
One guy goes first and you can see that he is very close in size to you in the trouser department.
party time

Dw; Come and look in my eyes and you will see a woman who loves her men deeply and completely with full commitment (if thats what they want) and a desire to ensure that their needs and desires are fulfilled as fully as mine. I think it all comes down to good manners - when you share a cake or a pizza you always ensure everyone has an equal portion don't you? That is how a relationship should be.

I couldn't have said it better. Money DOESN'T BUY happiness. We're not rich with Money, but we are soooo very rich with Love,Happiness,Compassion, Admiration, I could go on. :-) I do wish many times that we had more money that we do have so we could do SO much more as a family. But I don't think I would change a THING in my life. Right now, I'm in such a "Great" point in my life. I think the only thing that would please me more, is if I finally finish my degree. In due time,....in due time. :-)

Wishing you much luck and dreams MacGuyvernv

Beautiful writing.

Explore your gay part. You may find peace of mind.

I thought you meant Ontario Canada.. I was gunna whop your bottom for those comments.. but you're talking about the american one.. no biggy.

Mykonos sounds amazing. I auditioned for a musical artist, had a wonderful meal with a friend and did some computer work on the beach.

What kind of car did he get?

You know if you just admit that you fucked up, many times that totally disarms whoever is attacking you and the problem is resolved much quicker than bickering about whose fault it really is.

Went to Mykonos! :)

A great day Jason, Ontario sounds a choice place for sure! pleased to read Matt got his car, rainforest cafe sounds really cool lol...
My weekend was great thanks, went and had a nice meal out on Sunday and enjoyed the fabulous 'First wives club', you just got to love the combination of Goldie, Bette & Diane the chemistry is great and lets not forget Maggie Smith and Ellen Heckart, great film!
Hope you have a lovely Monday and manage to get Matt's car sorted, much love to you all not forgetting the adorable Apollo!

You all are cracking me up with these comments.

I don't have the best of straightening irons, so to mitigate the heat damage, I use tea tree shampoo and conditioner to clean out my hair, and then I do the Heat Seal to condition my hair and minimize breakage. I also don't keep my hair straightened all the time. I'll go a few days with it straight, let it get wet and curly again and then let it rest a while before straightening it again. I don't shed nearly as much as I used to, and my hair is pretty healthy now. It just takes some time getting used to being in dry warm air in Arizona. At least I'm spared some frizzies.

yngjock, I have two straight hair photos in my gallery. The one you're probably thinking of is the first one I did a while back with the blondish locks in the front. The other photo, "Tutorial Complete," was taken yesterday. I'm closer to my natural hair color now. There are medium brown highlights, but not that all over bright bleached-out chunky color.

And Ladies, trust, when I get "someone to do my hair" money, I'll go back and get stuff done. Other than beer and video games here and there, I'll treat myself out to hair stuff.

Very true
