Boys of Summer...

...today's task is to just clean off my desk and take stuff off the wall in my office. I have about a week left before my last day arrives but I'll be busy next week catching up different projects for whomever takes my spot. I still wonder if I'm making the right decision but the summer will fly by working two server jobs, hopefully with great tips as tourist season starts this weekend. Summer is officially here!

Is it that I'm really open minded...

...or I really just don't care about anybody's problems but my own??? hmmm...

You Are 76% Open Minded

You are so open minded that your brain may have fallen out!
Well, not really. But you may be confused on where you stand.
You don't have a judgemental bone in your body, and you're very accepting.
You enjoy the best of every life philosophy, even if you sometimes contradict yourself.

Organized to succeed

Wow, it has been almost 2 months since my last post.. While I would like to say that I have been too busy... The real reason is that I wasn't inspired to write much. I, just like the rest of the world was focused on "other" priorities. I find that I can usually accomplish exactly what I set out to accomplish. The past few months, I was accomplishing things other than writing...

Past few weeks have brought a lot of change to my daily activities. The need for structure in my work has been paramount as pressured increase and the sheer number of people depending on me has increased. The cycle that I was using for communications and governance wasn't working... I talked with a friend this past week, made changes accomodating his suggestions and now things feel like they are under control. Quite simply, I adjusted my control mechanisms to handle a different level of delegation and allow for more flexibility within my new structure. I reorganized for success. I will see how this model works in the coming weeks, and if it doesn't work, I'll try something else.

Tracee and I are about to launch the Da Capo Institute for real with classes starting in the Fall.. We are organizing for success today..

Success means we achieve the goal that we set out for... not what others think...

I believe that we are prepared to seek the prize of success with Da Capo.. I believe that we are joining God in his plan and not just pursuing ours. I believe that we are wonderfully and uniquely made in God's image, and that we understand what our role is for our community for the next few years.

I pray that I will be able to organize for success and partner with the wonderful people that God has blessed us with in our lives. I pray that my ego will not close off my mind to their vision and innovation. I pray for God's hand in our communications, that he will direct our words, and writing as we seek this new path for our lives.

I MISSED THE W&G FINALE!!

I had orientation for a new job and I missed it! FUG! I caught the last minute when they were at the bar. Although, I am reading A LOT about it on various blogs and the comments are pretty much the same...the gay people are not going to miss it and the ones who do like it, apologize for liking it. Fuck that.
If you like sitcoms, it was a good sitcom, I think people just put to much emphasis that it was "gay" sitcom and then of course the gay people had to over analyze it and say it was too gay or not gay enough, it's supposed to make you laugh...it's a sitcom, not a PBS documentary on gay life in America. I thought it got better over the years, the characters became deeper, their lives more involved...yet you still got to laugh. It's hard for me to watch the first season when Grace AND Will had big hair, they seemed bland and witout substance. Granted, it's not a movie of the week, but I think the later years were better as far as story lines were involved. Is it me or are gay people never happy? They wanted to be represented and when they are, they're not happy with the represenation because everyone has an opinion on what being "gay" is. I'm not gay, I'm me. I happen to be a person who is gay, but that's not who or what I'm all about, it doesn't define me and it's sad if it defines you because there is so much out there in the world to know and to learn and to experinece. Can't people just have fun anymore? Can't we just laugh...whether the characters or gay or straight or black or white or spotted? That's what a sitcom is for, I love sitcoms (I can hear the collective gay intellectuals gasp and clutch their chest now) but I do, why? Because you don't have to think, you don't have to analyze or have the content be thought provoking. After a hard days work or a day or night of studying until you can phycially hear your brain sizzle, isn't that what a sitcom shoudl be? Just to laugh and let you forget about work, school, family etc. I mean that's why I like them, they make me laugh and it's typical and simple and just exactly what I sometimes need. As for W&G, I thought it was a bit more than that sometimes but all in all, it's a sitcom people. I look forward to seeing the whole thing when it comes out on DVD. As you know I rarely rant on this blog (it's more for quick blurbs and pretty men:-) but I just couldn't keep quiet about all the gay people slamming W&G and turning it into yet another gay "cause". ;-)

Help this poor virgin out...

...while I don't advocate straight sex *grin* his plea is pretty important. He is a 25 yr. old virgrin from Canada. If he gets 5 millions hits on his webpage, his hot friend will sleep with him. So um, help him out? I guess...maybe I can make the same deal with Joseph Sayers!

The Virgin




and Joseph Sayers!
