Waiting To See
Sunday, after work, I went hiking in Dawson Forest with katfireblade. It was so nice to get out of the urban jungle for an afternoon. I love the city, but I also love the woods and its been far too long since Ive spent any time in the latter. I need to get my license so I can just take off and drive to the forest whenever I start getting that shut in, suffocating feeling I get more and more often.
Today was boring. I cant even afford a soda, so there wasnt much point in leaving the house. I really wish I knew more people in my neighborhood that I could walk to visit and hang out with. Unfortunately none of my real life friends live in the area. Theres something to be said for just kicking back with a friend or two and playing video games or watching movies. Lately it seems like the only time I get to hang out with any of my friends is when Im throwing a party. Nobody really comes around just to chill with me and since I dont drive I cant just up and visit anyone else.
I posted a news entry on SG today about the FBI shutting down Red Rose Stories for obscenity. It really upsets me that fictional fantasies are apparently illegal now. I know erotic story archives usually have some really disturbing things in them. Well, a lot of really disturbing things actually. Ive read some things on the Alt Sex Stories Text Repository that turn even my stomach, which is admittedly part of the reason I read them. I dredge the bottom of these archives to get a little insight into the worst humanity has to offer. Partly as morbid curiosity but mostly as character research for some of the more heinous villains I write about.
It bothers me that there exist people who write this stuff but it bothers me more that the government is telling people that they cant write and share immoral fictional stories. These are the same people that caused Suicide Girls to take off their BDSM themed sets. It may not be long before books like Screw the Roses, Send Me the Thorns are banned for obscenity. There is no telling how far this War Against Porn will go with Alberto Gonzales, the man Bush appointed as US Attorney General, pressing this crusade.
The power went off in the neighborhood while I was writing this. We were without electricity for an hour. That was rather annoying, especially since I didnt have Wyspurr here to cuddle with in the dark.
Its almost two in the morning and Wyspurrs still out despite the fact that she said shed be home around midnight. She went over to geckogirl's for a bit of a girls night with some of the other SGATLiens women. Im starting to get worried, though its not unusual for her to completely lose track of time while having fun. I hope thats all it is. Unfortunately, our phone is out of service so I cant call geckogirls to check up on her. Its going to be a long, stressful night if she doesnt come home soon.
