It's been quiet an eventful year for many of us. May the coming year be full of blessings, happy accidents, and many moments of pleasure!
For last year's words belong to last year's language and next year's words await another voice. And to make an end is to make a beginning. - T. S. Eliot

I am selfish, impulsive and insecure. I am reserved, reclusive and at times apathetic. I make mistakes and oftentimes can be hard to handle. Those of you who have experienced me at my worst, are truly deserving of my best.

Hmmm...
I'm starting to wonder if I'm turning into a viper-tongued, frigid queen - with a penchant for cheap Red Wine and generic Xanax.
What I am Michael is a 32 year-old, ugly, pock marked Jew fairy, and if it takes me a little while to pull myself together, and if I smoke a little grass before I get up the nerve to show my face to the world, it's nobody's god damned business but my own. And how are you this evening? - Harold, Boys In the Band

Not on Christmas! Not on Christmas! Part Deux
Not on Christmas! Not on Christmas! And I do mean it this time... Not to be taken as some clever some sarcastic joke... Another legend crosses over. Here's Miss Kitt singing Cha Cha Heels with Bronski Beat... The irony behind it all? Divine's character, Dawn Davenport, in the film Female Trouble, wanted a pair of Cha Cha Heels for Christmas. When she doesn't get them, she throws a fit on her parents. Dawn causes a chain reaction which makes the Christmas tree topple on top of his mother pinning her to the floor where she lies crying out, "Not on Christmas! Not on Christmas!" The vidjeo below is of a song that was written for, and intended to be sung by Divine in 1989 (he unfortunately died in 1988). I'm sadsies.
I's dun bin giffft'd!

My Christmas Card
It has been one hell of a year! For every tear, there's been a smile. There have been unfortunate accidents, and there have happy accidents. It's been a long and winding road, and as I have made my way through it, I feel fortunate enough to have been surrounded by a loving family and warm friends. For that I am eternally grateful. My best wishes to you and yours.
"There are very few moments in life as good as this. Let's remember it. To each of us and all of us, never have we been more close, may we never be farther apart. " - Lloyd Richards, All About Eve

Be careful of keeping secrets from the people who need to know what's going on in your life, Cancer. Of course, not everyone needs to know all of your business, but to lock someone out of your inner thinking and plans could be seen as righteously excluding them. You may just be mulling things in your own mind, gaining clarity before sharing your thoughts, but don't assume someone else is aware of this fact.

false pretense
all your life was hit or miss
living under the false pretense
that you were so special
that you were someone
you are no one just like me
now you know what's after this
beyond your grave another false pretense
that you go to hell or you go to heaven
you're going nowhere just like me

I should've killed myself when he put it in me. After the first time, before we were married, he promised never again. He promised, and I believed him. But sin never dies. Sin never dies. At first, it was all right. We lived sinlessly. We slept in the same bed, but we never did it. And then, that night, I saw him looking down at me that way. We got down on our knees to pray for strength. I smelled the whiskey on his breath. Then he took me. He took me, with the stink of filthy roadhouse whiskey on his breath, and I licked it. I licked it!

Different = Same
"Everything in life is connected somehow. You may have to dig deep to find it but its there. Everything is the same even though its different. Somehow everything connects back with your life. The faces in certain places may be different, but the situation is the same. Irony is a hidden factor that creeps around us in life, letting its presence felt only after it has left. Picture back to a year ago and the situation you were in. Look at how things are different yet somehow everything it still in someway cognate. Everything connects together to form the balance of life, to maintain structure. Change is and always will be inevitable, but everything is relative, and all the moments and times in your life will come back around again, you just might find yourself on the other side of the coin. Things are always changing, as fast as everything stays the same.” - Unknown

In a WGI state of mind...
VERY few people know that back in the day I was in fact a "f(l)ag twirler." Well, actually I was a riflist. Anyways, if it wasn't for the fact that I've "aged out," I would so totally try to make the time to get back into it. Here are some vidjeos from some of my favorite shows of WGI 2008.

...I and the public know
What all schoolchildren learn,
Those to whom evil is done
Do evil in return.
