Being Gay is Cool

I am kind of weird in the ways in which I operate. Ever since last New Years I was challenged to make a bucket list. I have done this a lot I’m striving to make 100 items and accomplish them all. I loved having a list, and I’ve maintained several different lists throughout the year. One thing I decided to make was a list of reasons why being gay is awesome. And since I have several lists I’m going to make a new tab up on the toolbar for all my lists and that way I can keep them current. Especially my bucket list!

1. You are unique, you add to the diversity of the world

2. I get to be directly involved with one of the biggest social reforms since the times of Martin Luther King Jr.

3. Being gay makes you part of a community. Gays look out for other gays.

4. Never have to worry about a pregnancy. (sometimes not a good thing)

5. Gay guys tend to be very sensitive, caring and such. (just a generalization)

6. I can like things like Ke$ha.

7. Because we are a minority we tend to understand others and be more compassionate.

8. Gays take good care of their body for the most part (generalization)

9. Life is not the normal path which can be exciting and amazing.

10. I can make non offensive gay jokes about myself.

11. Boyfriends can protect you and you can protect them.

12. No gender rules so you can be both the big spoon and little spoon 🙂

13. Nice Clothes

14. Girls love us

15. Pride

Tell me why you think being gay is awesome!!

Run in with the Popo

Today, Duke and I went on another date. I picked him up from his school as usual so his parents couldn’t track him with his car. We went to Punch Pizza which is my favorite pizza place ever, in that it’s legitimate italian pizza which I appreciate since I did live in Italy for 3 years. But I digress dinner was great, all that lovey dovey stuff and it was really nice since I hadn’t seen him in over a week. Following pizza we planned on going bowling but the wait to get a lane was 30 minutes so we decided to walk around a nearby mall. I enjoyed it not for the walking or the mall but for just being able to be near him and talk to him. After we completed a lap around all levels of the mall we decided to go to a frozen yogurt place. This place is cool because it’s open late, has board games, and you can customize all the toppings on your yogurt and you can control how much because you just pay based on weight. We sat down and played Jenga(tower game) and I won 🙂 It was getting to be time to be home for him so I drove him to the parking lot of his school where his car was. Our goodbyes elevated to making out which was really nice and fun, but this was short lived. Just as Duke is leaving my car to go to his, police lights flashed. A police officer came up to my window and asked what we were up to with the windows so foggy. At first, we said just talking, but we had to tell the truth and we said that we were making out. He wasn’t surprised because apparently he came to us because the security guy for the school had been watching us the entire time on the cameras. I freaked out. He took our IDs and I just thought of all the bad things that could happen. He said what we were doing was a misdemeanor in that it was disorderly conduct to be doing this at the school and that we could be arrested or fined up to 250$ each! I was rattled. Luckily when he came back, he gave us a “don’t do it again, and if you do, do it in a parking lot without security cameras.” I was so relieved. Once again I apologize for not posting a lot recently, I’ll strive to do better. Hope you all had a wonderful weekend!
