Love > All of us.
Seriously. This concept of love is so fucking powerful when you take a few leaps back and look at it. What it does to a person. What it does to a relationship. How we try to control it. How it makes life beautiful. How much it can hurt you.
It just seriously both intrigues and scares the hell out of me at how much control it has over our lives. And everyone sees it diffe
I love love. Sometimes.
I didn't mean to get all existentialist. And this isn't a revelation to me, this weekend/today just kinda put it in my mind. And since this is my lj, I figured I should note it.
So Friday night I arrived in Orlando from Tallahassee. Then Saturday, Steve, Ari, Ryan, and I went down to Palm Bay for Baby Ricky's Birthday Party. We went to breakfast before the party, so throughout the entire day I got to see almost all of the people I wanted to. The party was fun. I got some cute pics of Ricky face planting into his birthday cake and Anna's family is always fun to be around. After the Party we ended up at the Sun Shoppe with Brittany. Then Brittany actually joined us in Orlando for the evening. We watched TEETH! I was dieing to see it, and I wasn't disappointed. It was scary and gross and funny and ironic and offensive. Which is exactly what I was looking for. Sunday we woke up and went to GoodWill/Bealles Outlet where I was forced into spending 17 bucks on cheap cloths. Then Iced Coffee at McDonalds. (I've been good about making my own and not buying them btw. This week excluded.) So after Brittany left we did a bunch of nothing, which at times can be enjoyable. Steve and I had a little heart2heart, which I always love/hate (LIKE LOVE ITSELF! lol) Either way I think they're necissary in maintaining communication in a relationship. But w/e. I'm off on a tangent. So we also watched a movie called Edge of Seventeen. Which wasn't a good movie (like it wasn't interesting and its plot was week) but it being that way made me appreciate it for being a different view from the typical queer coming of age themed movie. It didn't have a happy ending, it didn't sum things up. His best friend rejected him. His mom couldn't accept him. He could barely accept who he was. The first few gay guys he met treated him only like a piece of ass. But it did show the Family aspect of queer culture in the end. So all these issues he was dealing with still weren't resolved when the movie ended, and I like that because thats how life is. It doesn't get giftwrapped before the ending credits. Some people struggle with their sexuality forever. I'm just thankful I'm not one of them. I could never sleep with a girl despite what some people may think. =P
This morning I woke up at 2:56am. I am now at the LGBTQ Resource Center. Then I will be home to consume a great amount of caffeigne until I go to work at 5. Hopefully we get out early early today so I can get some much needed sleep.
