I’m lying in bed, trying to sleep and there’s this common house gecko making its way across my ceiling. It’s a little wobbly too which is making me nervous. I swear I still have flashbacks to the time one of them dropped on my head and got stuck in my hair lol. Still better than the huntsman spiders, we haven’t had any of those for a while...
Holy crap today marks 5 years since I've joined EC. I've come a long way since those early days, and I owe EC a huge debt of gratitude for that. And I've made some amazing friends on here along the way. Thank you everyone on here for making this amazing community what it is.
It's my birthday today and I wouldn't normally share what I've been up too but I'm in a happy mood. My wife and I separated in February partly due to my sexuality. I'm learning to do things that make me happy and not having to please others all the time. So I woke up late, my kids brought me breakfast in bed, I got dressed at noon, then went for an amazing run, then went to my local town on my own, bought some things for a friend who literally has nothing, went for a walk in the beautiful sunshine by the river, came home, ex wife and her boyfriend cooked me dinner and to round the day off I watched a film this evening with my kids... Simple but a great birthday .
Congratulations, yeah, that's cool.... I've applied too but a few others have said it takes a while....
Even though I'm not really a Dodgers fan it's still exciting seeing how they might win tonight being outside of Los Angeles.
I was going through some of my old stuff, and found a book that was given to me from my aunt when I was only months old that has a nice message written inside that I had forgotten about.
I can relate. Reading old messages makes me feel happy yet nostalgic. It's like going back in time even if it's just for 30 seconds.
This girl I keep noticing has 95% of being straight and/or has no interest in me!!! Not strange because I don't try to look super hot at school because I'm constantly tired. (Waking 30 minutes early just to put makeup on? Hell no, I need extra 2 hours for that because my hands are shaking when I'm trying to put eyeliner on) Btw if she was even gay, she wouldn't be saying "Will someone ever marry me?" in a country where only hetero couples could get married. There IS a possibility of her being bisexual, or being super good at hiding being gay. The chances are still slim considering the low percentage of lgbt+ population. Fortunately I wouldn't call this state of mind "being in love" yet. If it was, I would've gone crazy for her. I had that happen in high school...it only hurt me from the inside. In the back of my mind, I'm constantly looking for someone to love. On the other hand, I try not to because I haven't fixed one issue: I'm highly insecure.
That getting the Jackbox party pack on the Xbox was a great idea. Fibbage was freaking hilarious. Also that I wish Forza Horizon 4 would install faster...
Have not been on here in a long while, it seems, but geez, joined 5 years back! I think the political climate and the anti LGBT sentiments that are peculating though the US right now especially in the right leaning Government, have me more in need of a place, like this...I'm starting to get scared. Also, do posts have to pass some new approval, in the politics thread? Made one about how they are planning to do away with the entire idea of transgender, at the federal level, but it said awaiting moderation. Was not a really crazy post, but anyone know how long such approval takes, and what the story behind it is? Been away a good spell, here.
