You know it's super easy to hate, it's really easy to get caught up in all the bigots and problems in this world, and it's really easy to turn into one of those people. Hate begets hate people - end of story. I don't care what is being hated on - hating it back doesn't help. It doesn't change people's opinions (often it just reinforces them), and it doesn't change laws or grant rights.

Don't get worked up about the things you can't change, don't sink to the level of people who can do nothing more than spread their own hate. You'll lead a much happier, much more satisfying life.

Instead, celebrate victories. Celebrate the way things are changing for the better, focus on the positive and ignore the rest. Things will get better, we've seen the start of it, and we'll be here for the finish.

We went to the movies tonight, we were going to see that How to train your dragon cause it looked cute, but we got there and mom saw they were showing Death at a Funeral and she said we had to see that one. So the plans changed.

So we were sitting there watching previews together, and a promo for The Losers comes on, and of course it makes me smile, and my sister says the only reason I want to see it is because of JDM - and I said who cares?

And then mom said that I can't like JDM because I'm a lesbian.

So I guess that means she got the message yesterday. Though I corrected her that even if I like girls I can UNF over JDM all I want.

Soooo

risti linked me to an article this week about Jennifer Knapp coming out, I thought it was interesting and I've always liked Jennifer Knapp, so I posted the article to my facebook saying that.

Tonight mom brought it up, how she'd come across it and was I trying to say something with that.

And I asked her what she meant, and she went on to say how I always watch Logo, and I have faggots as the background on my phone (Brian/Justin kissing), and I love Jennifer Knapp. Does that mean anything.

And I shrugged.

And she said well you should know.

And I told her I did.

And then she quoted some line from Back to the Future 3 to me about your future being up to you to decide and we were done ... it was very weird.

Mom: did you know Anderson Cooper is gay?
Me: um duh
Mom: what does that mean?
Me: it means everyone knows
Mom: well I didn't know
Me: it is sort of obvious
Mom: i don't see it
Me: it's okay
Mom: thanks

Oh mom. I don't think she's gonna want to watch Anderson Cooper with me anymore.

One day I am going to finish the things I've started writing, it's gonna happen, for reals. My neck hurts, and my back hurts, and it feels like I've been sleeping on rocks despite the really fabulous mattress we have. Meh.

A++ for DC today, Legalizing Gay Marriage and then the Supreme Court for upholding their right to have done so. I approve.

Now to go sleep on my rock bed.

Falling in love with straight girls is dumb ... and frustrating.

wendy posted a link to this Gay/Rainbows/Equality picspam today, made by

fallintosilence. And you know the pictures are nice and all but the video at the top is the best part of that - and you ought to give it a listen if you have any time today.

So tonight, I was watching an episode of Bones with my mother and sister. The story line was about a gay man who was killed, and in one scene they were interrogating a man who fell in love with the murder victim but couldn't make himself come out to be with him.

After the scene was over, my sister looked at me and told me to stop being such a homo lover. And my mother thought that was freaking hilarious. Apparently she's been trying to tell me the same thing all the time. And she tells my sister that she has asked me if there is something I've been wanting to tell her, and then she asked me again.

And so I just told her yes.

And then she changed the topic of conversation right after, and nothing else has been said about it since. Apart from another laughing session at my being called a homo lover - and all homos are going to hell.

FML

So a little less drunk now, heh. I thought I'd do a little New Year post. Not anything ground breaking or anything like that, just you know I like to acknowledge the start of a new year - is it me or does time seem to move faster every year? Because I'm pretty sure just yesterday it was like May.

I don't really do resolutions, because I mostly fail at them, but there is one thing I'd like to do this year. It's not quite a resolution just something that is kind of there. But yeah.

I'd like to come out to my family this year.

Not entirely sure how that's going to go, what with them being all super conservative Christians and stuff - and this being Texas, but yeah. I don't like not being honest about who I am, and I don't like the gay jokes my family makes, and they don't seem to listen when I say anything about it, but maybe coming out would help? IDEK.

So yeah, 2010, the year of coming out.

Hooray.

So I don't actually watch that show - Bones - it's just a little too close to all those crime scene/law and order/police drama shows and I don't watch any of them. But tonight we watched the last 15 minutes or so of Bones because my sister wanted to see it and I think I'm in love.

This woman is so freaking gorgeous I think I might die, I need to do unspeakable things to her, stat.

I may start watching this show just to see more of her, cause rawr, for reals. I can't describe how much I'm in want for this woman, it's a little crazy. I don't even know what her character does on the show, other than be amazingly hot - but yeah.

We'll see.

You guys, I just realized tonight how in love I am with Christina Ricci. Especially after watching Black Snake Moan last week. Rawr I love her.

still trucking along on my big bang fic. Almost got it up to 25k, will it ever stop growing?!
