to be out or not to be out... i do have a pretty big closet, after all
Randomly, I decided it was time for an update.
I just got home from babysitting my nephew, if you can call it that... every once in a while I have to go over to his house to sit there while he is asleep because there's a gap in-between his parents' work schedules. What's cool about it, though, is that my sister-in-law has been really nice and funny to me every time she gets home from work. It's fun to have silly conversations with her at midnight on a Friday. AND she actually says thank you for coming over, which my brother NEVER does.
So, you know how all the guys I've ever known have had a crush on Kristen at one time or another? Well, it seems that my nephew now has a crush on her as well. It's not surprising. I mean, he's all of two years old... it's about time for him to start playing the field :-) Of course, in Luke's case, showing off to her is putting legos together and showing her his Matchbox cars. Needless to say, I think Corey has some stiff competition. :-)
I bought a cd/dvd rack the other day (well, rather, Mom bought it for me as an early Christmas present), and it looks great. However, I don't have enough media to fill it so clearly I need to go buy about 50 more cds.
I might break down and go back to working overtime on Saturdays. I have to support my music addiction somehow.
It's been exceedingly difficult to write Christmas cards this year. I don't know what to say in them... also hard to pick out the cards themselves because my sister hates ones that say happy holidays, while I have friends who are not Christian and I want to be courteous to them. you can't please everyone... and actually my sister probably won't like my card regardless, as she really doesn't enjoy my sense of humor. What a weirdo.
I can't decide whether to come out to my team at work. I've been going back and forth on it for a year. On the one hand, I can't imagine what good will come of it as they will just gossip about me behind my back... poorly... so that I can hear them when they whisper... On the other hand, honesty is important, and I don't want to be closeted exactly. On the other other hand (which may be a foot, I guess), how could they not have noticed by now? Hmmmm. It's just so weird... if I was straight, I wouldn't have to come out.
The simplest thing to do would just be to tell this one woman who is one of the biggest gossips in the building. Then, when she went on a smoke break, she would tell the smokers, who would tell everyone else who has any idea who I am. That would be like the easiest coming out since I came out to Nikki back in the day and she told anyone who would listen so all my coming-outs were like "yeah, I know already".
Oh, and I keep thinking of Josh lately, for the weirdest reason: the cost of gas. It hasn't been this price since we were doing the on-again-off-again thing and I remember being at that gas station right near his house, saying "I will never pay $1.36 for gas - that's ridiculous!" Hahahaha. Can you believe that was like five years ago?
Oh, no, now I feel old. Maybe I'll go play with some Legos and make something for Kristen myself... give Luke a run for his money.
