I don't really consider this one a short story, because there's not enough imagry in it. But perhaps it could be considered an essay....

Disappointment leaves an aftertaste, sort of like burgers. It's not always bitter like they say. But what aftertaste is ever pleasant? I struggle to convince myself to head to the bathroom and brush my teeth. But I know the toothpaste...

There seems to be a reoccurring theme in your life.
So Dracula walks into a Hot Topics and says "So you sell vampire merchandise here?"
Beginning of a bad goth joke, or scene from Blade III?

A good friend of mine recently posted a blog on Myspace.com, debating the value of homeschooling her children vs. sending them to school. I attended public school in Florida, where the state regularly cut any funding that managed to sneak it's way into the system. I also got beat up both physically and emotionally on a regular basis by my wonderful peers, until I outgrew...

My feeling is that 7th through 9th grade is the worst time of any person's childhood. Public school is important in teaching socialization, but too many people use it to the exclusion of teaching their own children, rather than an extension. Public schools are doing the best that they can with what they've been given. Which is less and less since Bush has been in office.
I've got absolutely nothing to say today.
That's not unusual, of course. Sometimes I fill the space by bitching about my life and so forth, but there's not much to bitch about at the moment. Life is good. Most of my witty repartee (I know the word looks wrong, but I spellchecked it to make sure), has been going into my emails lately. Sorry if...

Don't you have a science fiction convention to go to or something?

That's at least in the right direction. I delete some of the TCP/IP connections though, and they come back. I'm not sure which ones I need. Thank you, though, I'll tinker with it a bit and pray that I don't crash the entire system.
I have a wish list now. Buy me stuff!!!!

Just saw Stepford Wives on DVD. Was expecting it to suck, but it was actually pretty cool. I definitely want one...not to be married to, but as a household appliance. I wonder if they come in leather and vinyl...

You're the only one reading that that I'll probably actually see on Christmas, so you'll just have to wait and see.
I've dedicated so much of my life to just getting by, making ends meet, paying my bills on time like a good little boy. I implode my emotions inside, before they reach the surface, where they can do damage to others. I don't want to be my father, calm and contained one moment, then raging out of control the next, not caring who he hurts,...

Another holiday has passed, and I escaped with my emotional psyche intact. Never made it to Vegas, but I got the traditional turkey, and had women showering me with attention, and even attended a gaming convention of all things. Strange how plans change suddenly. I'll chalk it down as a victory, because had I stuck to the original plan, the female attentions that would have...

Different day, same stress and melodrama. I get tired of writing about it, but when I write about anything else, my writer's block kicks in. It must be pschological in nature. Sort of like repressed memories, only it's repressed talent instead. Or an old sports injury. I sprained my frontal lobe in college, and have never been quite the same since.
At least tomorrow evening...

Cornered? You speak of spending a day with my amazing family as being cornered? How dare you!
