firsts

counter-clockwise:

a) i've never been stood up before, as far as i can remember. that was a treat . . . in that it was the opposite of a treat. picture me, in a starbucks armchair, forced to resort to brian mclaren for company. yikes!!!

the scariest thing is that you don't just figure "maybe their movie ran late" or "maybe there's craaazy traffic going south on crowchild . . . at 9pm . . . in the north north west." for half an hour you also wonder, "are they dead?" which proves, yet again, that pain is an opportunity to remember how great joy is.

relax: my friends aren't dead. their movie ran craaaaazy late. and they missed me by seven minutes. and they're sorry comma wonderful.

b) walked biscuit twice today . . . his baggies are pink. (are they scented? that would add a little something extra, don't you think?) he's whining now, so i'll keep this short.

c) have you ever tried to come up with reasons your straight friends seem gay? there's a three-item list for kevin (don't bother following the link, he hasn't updated since shortly after the flintstones went off the air) and ross (he updates more often, but his blog always breaks this computer) thusfar. we're working on it.

d) watching two paradigm-shifting movies back to back? dangerous. in this case, v for vendetta with the lovely heather and then stay all by myself. and when i say "back to back" i mean that there was a thirty minute gap between bidding farewell to heather and greeting ryan gosling. (p.s. sigh) anyway, conclusion? masks can be real and reality can be an illusion. in that order.

Alright
so I had a reply all written. It was a list of reasns why I was glad Im not gay. I took a look at it for a while and decided that there was only one reason. Not that there was ONLY one reaseon, I mean I could think of infinite reasons, that was the proble,m, but every reason boiled down to a single reason, one grand overarching reason that demands or needs no reply. There is one infinite reason why I am a heterosexual male, and that reason is, of course, a yet to be named heterosexual female.

Why do you read Brian if you don't like Brian?
I"m slowly loosing respect for all the Brian haters.
I've been stood up about 6 times by 3 diffrent people.

It is one of the most evil things a person can do to me. If one wants to tell me the hate me, that is the best way to do it.
