god, I'm sick of the fight... everyday I wake up and go to work. I fight to make a living in a world where you can never have enough. to get necessities, food, water shelter, good health, education you have to work so hard that you lose your health, your peace of mind, your sanity. I work so hard on my relationship. to balance my love for Kate with my humanity is a challenge, we need to eat and sleep and have a home and must work never ending hours to accomplish these things, but the point of life is love to love and be loved to have a family. a family that in order to afford you must neglect, a family that in order to nurture, you must harm, by taking time away from the jobs and cleaning and other necessities. working, living and loving is a hard group to juggle. esp..... when at times I feel I'm left to do it with one hand tied behind my back. and to do this day in and day out only to be affronted daily by headlines and news stories about how many Americans think I should be allowed to make love to the one person I live for. about how many Americans think that I should be able to solidify my love in the eyes of that law. about how many Americans think I'm disgusting or a sinner. well you know what. I fukkin don't want to hear it anymore. I'm sick of this god-forsaken country telling me their deep thoughts. I'm sick of bible banging hypocrites telling me what their god thinks of me. and I say their god, because the one I believe in would have had to wash his hands of them by now. I'm sick to death of America the free thinking that another amendment will save the day. when actually all they really want to do is repeal the one that separates church from state. I'm sick of hearing what the fukking pope thinks of my sex life and future. I have never been a catholic and so why do I know more about his thoughts on my sex life then my fukking presidents thoughts on poverty or taxes. I'm sick of people telling us we need to defend marriage from the like of me, when , um yeah maybe its been so battered and beaten by the likes of Monica and bill and "their kind" that it isnt worth defending. you can take your fukking marriage. the vows that rarely make it out of the church in tact. the death rate of your "sacred bond" makes it worthy of the endangered species list. so take it and keep it and watch it die a slow painful death... just give me equal rights as a human being, let me be a part of this "in crowd" you have going where I can visit the one I love when they are sick, get some discounts on taxes and maybe have a child or two that stands a chance of being raised by not just one drug-free, hardworking, loving person, but TWO (remember Hillary told us it "takes a village", so my thoughts are the more the merrier, maybe you all should remember that as "your people" have millions of unwed mothers each year because they cant figure out the complexity of a condom, or because of rape or incest, or because your marriage idea aint all it is hyped up to be) I don't want your approval, its worth about as much as mine is to you. but I want to be left alone and treated with fairness under the law. I'm not a second class citizen because I don't like dick.
rants,
