Happy New Year 2008! (Or the first of many entries.)

This is an introduction to what I hope becomes a regular thing both for you and me. For some time now I’ve wanted to start this thing called a BLOG. Not sure how much of my ideas will end up here because I don’t want all my creative energies to go unrecognized and/or stolen. But this will become an outlet for me to express my ideas, ask you for feedback and hopefully catalyst my writing career. It’s really been a long time since I’ve done some writing for others to read and I miss it. If you guys feel I’m being too “whatever” smack me around because I want to get better, but be kind. ;-)

So what can you expect to read about? Hum. I’m a Gemini and true to the eclectic nature of us Twins I like to write and talk about everything. Writing, poetry, storytelling, and all the other things in my life that puzzle me or interest me – big cities, traveling, and men. Oh yeah! In case you missed it I’m gay. I’m not sure if you could figure it out speaking to me but I’m much more expressive in writing. I’m by no means in the closet just that I’m more of what is commonly know as BUTCH. Which means I’m just like most straight guys except I'm attracted to other guys. Albeit, I’ve been know to check out girls all the time. Okay, I’m a little friendly when it comes to people.

There are likely many of you who will be driven to read this BLOG because you are coming from another social site in which I have a profile. I’m a member of many gay communities but there are a few with which I identify more. For those of you who never saw an episode of QAF (Queer As Folk) or who don’t know anything about gay life, there are many segments of gay culture and even more subcultures within each. You might identify as being Gay, Lesbian, Bi-sexual, Transgender, Queer, Fag, Lesbo, Twink, Otter, Cub, Bear, Chub, Chub4Chub, Chaser and so many more things. As you can imagine there are as many definition of each word as there are people in each community. We each define each word differently. But there are a few things that are usually universal like a Bear is a hairy gay guy, not some furry animal found out in the woods (okay maybe some are but that’s another story). And a Chub is a guy who is generally over weight for his height. These are the two which I most identify and likely will be speaking about or in relation to in this BLOG.

Well, I hope that when you visit next time you will enjoy what I’ve written or added to this BLOG. There are a few ideas I’ve already toyed with and know will be posted over the next few days.

And remember to come back often and visit my new little space on the internet. I know it will evolve as time goes by as much as I have evolved throughout my life.

Happy New Year 2008! May 2008 bring you (and yours) many good things that fill your heart with much joy.
