I wasnt going to see Brokeback Moutain because I didnt want to be a cliche. The irony of the whole thing was that it took 2 straight girls and lesbian to get me to see it. It was late- like 10:30pm and I really had to be to sleep because I had to work at 4am yesterday. I decided to go anyway because EVERYONE wanted to see it and we wouldnt have if we didnt just go. Im so so so so so happy that we did.
I watched the movie and something weird came over me. Granted, I did fall alseep for 45 minutes but before I did I realized this feeling and in my slumber deliberated on it (thats what I told the girls). I came to my conclusion on the feeling, which is, I realized what was missing in present relationships with guys, and it's romance. These two cowboys were so in love and it was so romantic. I dont want to give any of the movie away but I will say that it restored a sense of peace in me. It seems that gay guys are depicted as beautiful boys who week after week spend nights at BABYLON and do drugs and fuck everyone and- what about those who arent this way? What about those who are finding it hard to steer clear from societal views on gay guys and truly looking for love. These guys invested in their love every summer. It was physical, it was mental- it was the whole package. There was genuine concern for each other ( one would lay the others clothes out ) and it was just beautiful. Thats all I can say.
I hate sounding trite and even more detest being cliche but I highly recommend this film so people could see whats it's like before we all got our hearts broken and grew jaded to romance. All they did was herd sheep and it was so romantic. LOL Im stopping here!
Im going to New Orleans for Mardi Gras. Vanessa bought me a ticket and upon doing so said, " If I dont do this now you'll never get up here!" This isnt true. I wouldve gotten there soon...like June-ish. Now it seems, Ive become even more elated about life because Im one month shy from seeing my soul mate. Thanks Vi!
So, Aaron asked me when I would let him take me out. I told him I'd be on vacation next week (although now it's revoked because Im going to New Orleans) and he said it was perfect. He said I could spend the night at his house and- I cut him off...Why do I have to spend the night at your house? He said so we can get to know each other better and it doesnt have to be sexual, just romantic. LOL! I told him if we had 7 dates then I would consider sleeping at his house and that doesnt necessarily mean Im sleeping with him. This was where he replied, " How about you have one sleepover and if you dont like it we can ditch the other 6?" LOL Now, those who know me well know that I am far from Sandra Dee but----I CANT! I cant because I dont want to.
Im leaving you all with a quote from SuperTramp:
Now some they do and some they dont.
And some you just cant tell.
Some they will and some they wont.
And some it's just as well.
Which one are you?
Looking forward to tanning with Stacey and getting ripped with Jen. Ahhhhh, south florida life.
