National ID card

The above is an op-ed article about a National ID card. The whole thing, I feel, is kind of iffy. The way the writer describes it, it sounds like having such an ID card would be very useful. Never have to try and remember all of your medical history, more secure voter card, helps homeless people have an identity to be able to cash checks and get jobs. But nonetheless, I'm afraid that it will be used as a people tracker for bad people with bad intentions. If there were some way to keep it from tracking people, then I think I'd be more comfortable with it. Though that almost seems to go against the whole principle behind it. But whatever.
Just got an email from Jenifer saying that she and Ethan weren't going to be able to come up and see me this weekend along with my friend Heather. :-/ So I went from having 3 visitors on Saturday to 0 visitors. I feel like a pussy, but I'm honestly really sad that they can't come up. I miss my Ethan Magoo
I mean how can anyone resist that cutie? Not to mention I enjoy hanging around Jenifer, I mean we've been friends for a long time, and I love hearing about how raising a family is for her. I've never admitted this to any of my friends, but I almost live through Jenifer now... *sigh* I want a family of my own so bad, but being gay makes it so difficult. Not to mention I don't want to adopt; I want children that I share blood with. And then add on top of all that how I've never had a guy take an interest in me for more than sex. It makes me feel rather hopeless. Jeez, how did this entry go from being about a national ID card to me being sad about my hopeless plight in life. whatev. I should stop procrastinating and go do the tons of reading I have for my classes that I've been neglecting.
