So Much Love

Friday was full of love and acceptance. I attended California's Great America presents Gay Day. After 5pm the park was closed to the public and only those who bought tickets to this function could enter. Half the park was closed and two large stages were set up. The main stage near the entrance had a DJ and different performers. The second stage was the "Latin Stage" and it had its share of performers and games. Needless to say, I was mostly stationed at the Latin Stage, and that is where the good roller coasters are.
The atmosphere was perfect, lots of love, especially since the lift on the ban on gay marriage in California, a great way to celebrate!
I didn't stick around for the performers and I only caught a glimpse at a few while standing in line for rides. The music made standing in line less pain full and the TV screens around the park had gay themed commercials and whatnot. Yummy boys in thongs!
Next year I will definitely attend but maybe with a different group.

House of Sand and Fog

I have to read this book for my English final on Tuesday. I'm about half way through and I still cannot get into it. Its a slow read. Both of the main characters are unlikable, but they are unlikable in a bad way. You feel bad for neither of them and I cannot seem to relate to either.
Kathy Nicolo irritates me. She has done nothing with her life. She is also throwing her sobriety away. She can't get her life together and now she is letting herself get carried away with an unavailable man. She only thinks about the present and does not the bigger picture. Her imprudence has caused her to lose her home that she shares ownership with her brother. While the city made a mistake, she decided not to open her mail, thus letting the problem get bigger.
I think I find Kathy far more irritating than Behrani. But he is also a S.O.B. I just feel bad for his wife and son. He doesn't realize that appearing wealthy is only making his financial situation worse.
I'm just so sick of this book.

For Love

Yesterday California overturned a ban of gay marriage. Its not legal yet but soon, I hope. I've never understood the ban, except those Christian fundamentalist with a political agenda. It hurts no one and who's to say they can't marry. There is supposed to be a separation between church and state. Either way, the road to legalization of gay marriage will be a long tough one. C'mon California, I know we can do it!

I'm Tired

Finals are just around the corner and then I'll be able to breath easy once more.
Not much has gone on, just studying and doing stuff for extra credit.
Once school is out I plan on working out. I'll see how that works out.
The other day I bought my tickets for the Warped Tour on June 21st in San Francisco!! Yes, I will be going. I also found out that The Action Design will be releasing their first full length album the first week of June! Yay for awesome music. I'm really excited!

Time Off

I think I'm going to go MIA for awhile. Life is getting in the way and I have a lot to get done!

The Slip

The lovely and wonderful Trent Reznor has released another album! This one is 100% free. Go download it here.

Epic Fail

I saw Iron Man last night. It had been a rough day and my boyfriend and his friends wanted to go see it. I said fine, I really wanted to see Baby Mama but I thought I'd be nice. We caught the 11:55pm show. The movie didn't actually start until 12:05. So the beginning caught my attention but after that I was seriously fighting sleep. Now, I've got to plenty of midnight showings and I have NEVER fallen asleep. If a movie is good enough I'll stay awake. But 50 mins. in I was passed out. The only reason I woke up was because of the booms and whatnot. After that I was able to stay awake, a little bit.
I have never read an Iron Man comic ever, I know nothing of Iron Man. But the fact that I was able to predict the entire movie really bothered me. And Gwyneth Paltrow, oh my god, Gwyneth Paltrow. She was terrible, very very bad.
The effects were pretty good but the final fight was less than impressive. I'm still pissed I paid $22.00 for a shitty movie.

Echoplex

So I get home from work today and I get an IM that there is a new Nine Inch Nails song!

I'm on my way to tweaking out.


Because there was some drama last night I wasn't able to get to bed until 2:30 am. I wake up 6am to get ready for work. I'm trying to stay awake.....
