For some reason, this fight scene has been playing in my head for the past two weeks. Coincidence? Technorati Tags: fight scene, kill bill, the bride, elle driver, trailer Filed under: Personal Comments: 2 Comments |

Che/Gaara and I broke up. No details, and nothing I choose to discuss right now. Let's just keep it moving. Filed under: Love in the Life and Personal Comments: Comments Off |

So…have you watched the news about Atlanta lately? In case you hadn't, we kinda had an F2 tornado rip through downtown Atlanta, leaving behind a 6-mile path of destruction which included several in-town neighborhoods, the Georgia Dome, the Georgia World Congress Center and the Stacks at Fulton Cotton Mill. Of course, I didn't find out about any of this until Saturday morning because yours truly was knocked the fuck out asleep, just two miles away from downtown. For the most part, clean up is swift and ongoing. My neighborhood — the West End — was unscathed, but Downtown, Cabbagetown and Reynoldstown didn't fare so well. Goofball and Milk-Chan live in that area, but they're both OK with no collateral damage. Most of Downtown is still barricaded, causing what was already a maze of one-way streets an even worse maze of one-way streets. Coverage, from what I can see from the MSM outlets, is mainly in areas east of the Georgia Dome, something Creative Loafing picked up on as well. (I did see two great videos [1, 2] by Shelby Highsmith though on the damage in the nearby Vine City area.) Che and I drove through part of downtown that wasn't blocked off this morning, and there's still a lot of debris everywhere. The view of the city skyline from the Downtown Connector, looks like a bit like Atlanta 2099 or something — windows are broken in skyscrapers, billboards are mangled and gnarled, freeway signs are bent backwards or missing their signs altogether. Oh, and the Georgia Dome and Georgia World Congress Center? These galleries [1, 2] from the AJC show some pretty heinous damage was done by the storm. (Full disclosure: I used to work there, so seeing the place in shambles like this is really something serious.) A tornado in the middle of downtown Atlanta…sure takes your mind off the drought, doesn't it?

It ain't the Law of Attraction, and Rhonda Byrne damn sure didn't discover it. For you see, I am the secret. At least when it comes to relationships. I'm not getting any younger. And of course, I'm thinking about what I want to change in my life since I'm approaching 30 and really want to get things in order. You know…finances, living conditions…and relationships. I was thinking the other day about my past relationships and how essentially, I was never really with them, in the actual two-people-one-feeling type of way. They had their friends and their family and the things they did with them, and then separate from that, there was me. With each of them, I was never integrated into their lives in a way that would have gotten me to know more about them. I was just Mr. One-on-One. Opportunity and Hey Mr. DJ were perhaps the biggest offenders in this case. I was just the sideline ho. Now when I was younger, that was OK. I was doing my own thing and they did theirs and never the 'twain did meet. But now that I'm older and all these feelings and shit start getting involved. Well…I don't want to be isolated like that. And I certainly don't want to be with someone who'd be ashamed to introduce me to the people in their lives, romantic relationship or otherwise. I mean, who would deny themselves of the Karsh experience willingly? It's their loss, y'know? The flipside of that, though, is wondering what it is about me that'd want them to do that in the first place. My intelligence? My humor? My looks? My race? I'm not in the closet, but I'm not doing rhythmic gymnastics with the rainbow flag either. Hell, it could be a combination of all those factors. For The Ex, he was ashamed to be seen with me in public. For The Why, he was afraid his fianceé would find out. And for the others? Who the hell knows. So I ask…how many of you out there are keeping someone a secret for fear of what someone else might think? Filed under: Love in the Life and Personal Comments: 3 Comments |
