Test Pattern Girls
Yes, it's kind of creepy I'll admit, right up front.....
I've been reading this book "The Game" By Neil Strauss. It's about his experiences, hanging out with a bunch of Pick Up Artists in Hollywood. My response to the writing at first was revulsion. "How can you think of women as tests for your cheesy pickup lines and programs of seduction." And...

Here, I'll put my money where my mouth is.
I am not self proclaiming that I am quite different than most people, I have been told that...even by my girlfriend.
I hate professional sports...but I am athletic.
It is just asinine how much these people get paid. Yet, millions of people support their lifestyle...this goes for rock & movie stars.
Why does everything cost so much...because people are willing to pay for it. What would happen if people refused to pay. People pay extremely high prices for rent in large cities...what would happen if no one would do that?
This goes for taxes as well...I do agree that we should pay taxes ,but, our government does not use our money wisely. Do you know anyone who likes paying taxes? Everyone jokes about not paying...what if we did...are they going to arrest everyone?
I date quite differently than most...I have eliminated the desire for sex. I really just like to hang out with girls and get to know them...if we end up having sex great!...if not that's great too!
I once gave you flack about leather pants...I really don't care if you wear them or not...but, something in society says that only certain people can wear them. Why? don't you think that is foolish?
You once gave me a ton of shit for saying that all vaginas feel the same. When I was younger I thougt they would feel differently...as you have more and sex...well...almost all vaginas do feel the same...the person attached is quite different. I didn't mean to slander women and their vaginas....I just came to the realization that it does 'feel' the same.
From reading your past posts...I think you do ask yourself, why in society are things the way they are. I think you, like me, tend to against the grain, and try to it a little different than everyone else.

It seems there's a move on ( Rather embryonic...) to possibly turn the old Vogue Theatre into a civic venue. I'd hate to see it turned into a resturant which is the current owners idea. If they can do this in the next few years our Cert will still be in effect at that time. Which means, I might still be...

Yeah, why does EVERYTHING have to become a restaurant??? 
Either that or a coffee house, it seems.

WHO Else
Went out for a walk and ran into some work friends of mine. One of whom is now recently divorced and is heading off to Australia to produce punk bands down-under. Brian's a great, solid guy and I'm glad to see he's got a destination in his head after all the bullshit over the last year with the now Ex - She's quite...

Hmmmm, you're probably NOT going to believe this, but it's been my experience (and, yes, I do have a few years up on you) that when you just surrender and stop forcing yourself to take chances with people or relationships, something will literally fall into place. I'm sure this ranks right up there with the parental "be yourself" credo, but honestly, the best relationships I've ever EVER had were the ones that came along by utter surprise. Close your eyes. She's gotta be near by.

No spell check? Damn,you're GOOD! 
Saturday night....
This is the first saturday night I've had off since October 3rd 2005. "Beauty And The Beast" has left the Stanley, but due back next Christmas as a remount ( So Far... I get my first remount name request ever. ) . And I've been spending the week jumping from gig to gig. Nickleback rehersals at the Coliseum. Then, transiting out to the...

im not gonna lie to you. i tried the "ill just stay home tonight and save some money" idea, and next thing i knew i was tripping my balls off and getting stoned out of my mind. (most of this could be attributed to my roommate but well leave him out of this). enjoy the 18 hours of sleeping while you can. thats what i always aim for. 
djdragyn:
by the way im in theatre 100 at the local communtiy college and might have some random questions for you. im supposed to see 3 plays this semester and i know you dont live around here but any recomendations?
X marks the spot....
The Disney shows gone into the storage trailer for next christmas. And we had a sad little closing night party in the lobby. Way out of proportion to the success of the run. I tried to tidy up some loose ends with our Belle. Explain what I meant by my Spot Crush remark of a few weeks ago. I think we're...

Entropy Week....
ACT sets usually have an ingrown expiry date. Usually the week before closing. So far, we've been blessed with a trouble free set this whole run. Instead of the set going I think it's happening at home for most us, the cast a crew. I lost my aux drive which had my windows for mac. Then my imac, and finally the power in...

alright so i swear ill read everything on this page but i just wanna interject this real quick.
-if theres one thing ive (learned?) about women so far is that they always want to feel comfortable with their present state of being. telling her she looks better as who she really is obviously isnt what she wants to hear and so the compliment probably went a little to deep for her. but thats just my guess and im really tired and i should read the whole entry before commenting but i just wanted to say whats up and put my 2 cents in before bed. is she anywhere near your age or is she younger? cuz these younger girls are drivin me up a wall.

Yeah, I've thought about that..And it's a very fair comment. I just find her incandecent as a brunette. But, I realised that I should have just gone for it. And not undersold the attraction.
It's not that I want to sleep with her as apposed to make an impression. I'm tired of being in the shadows. So much so that if I'm to be rejected I want the full meal deal. Broken canopy and all. I want to find a way to be comfortable to make a splash.

Five %
That's all it really is... Five % more courage in any bar, club or venue where the opposite sex congregates. Just open your mouth and talk....
So, what if she blows you off...she's only a woman. How many do you see every day that you find attractive?

Call Me...No Wheels
I'm the ACT / VECC calling steward again. It's not a bad job during the lean months. A little extra coin to dispatch crews. Unlike the downtown guy who almost makes a living just being a dispatcher alone. The good thing is I can put myself immediately on Any ACT call unless it puts me in O.T. Due to the fact that...

dude if your health insurance wants you to get a physical by your personal physician does this mean they drug test you? and if they do and find trace amounts do you think they would do anything about it?

Flash Gordon...The Musical.
I've been having show dreams again. This often happens in my head near the end of a long Musical's run. ( Beauty closes on Jan 22nd. But, it's going to be re-mounted next year for next christmas. Seeing as it's become this huge cash cow.
Dreams of musicals I think, are my minds way of doing a memory dump for sanity. For...

yeah im already in therapy for other (total bullshit of living with my parents) reasons. i open up as much as i can to my therapist but they dont even come close to helping.
i want to forget about her completly, shes engaged now. wait no, i just want her to be a better person, someone who she obviously isnt. but i dont think shes mature enough to handle that. its not like life sucks because of all the bullshit but i dont want my other relationships to suffer. thanks again for all the help.

If you feel a therapist isn't helping, then get another opinion. I found It also depends on the sex of the therapist. I ended up seeing two different ones. My female therapist was great at the start but as I reassurted myself I realised that thier were things I wanted to say to her but I couldn't because she was a she. So, she got me to see friend of hers and he was able to help me with other issues regarding my understanding of the opposite sex in a more comfortable 'Male" space.
ps.
yeah my ex calls/messages me the other day and was like "hi!!!!, my fiance hasnt spoken to me in weeks". i laughed, alot.
My trip to Vancouver was to ride North Shore and Whistler. We drove around quite a bit too. Must be a great place for road riding too.
