I have been keeping busy over the past week or so. I have more or less been pretty good overall. I really miss Tony and where he is from. I really want to go back sometime soon and see it all again. He may be be graduating next December so that would be a good time to go out there and see him then.

Work has been going pretty well. School work is piling up. I have to go into the office tomorrow to let a contractor in. I think I am going to get as much work done as possible.

It’s a quiet night tonight. I have fallen in love with our new TV. We just got all of the HD hookups so I am rediscovering TV.

Last week, I decided to tell one of my aunts that I am gay. I actually started telling her over Facebook chat and then we talked on the phone for a couple hours. I was particularly scared to tell her because she is politically conservative and has made some comments about gay marriage and the fact that she didn’t want her kids exposed to that.

Our conversation could not have went better. She told me that she was fine with it and that she loved me. She said that it would in no way affect my relationship with her kids. I actually got to see her last weekend which doesn’t happen that often.

This week as I was walking to work, I got a phone call from her. We exchanged pleasantries and then came the shocker. Since I talked to her about my trip to see Tony, she offered to have us both stay at her place since my uncle is going to be out of the country for a few months.  She said ,”You and your friend cold come here and visit the city and use (my uncle’s) car.” That was a total surprise. I don’t think that we will be taking her up on the offer, it was a very pleasant surprise.

Hopefully, this will set the stage for more good stories to come. I am going to start telling more people. It is time. I am ready. If they aren’t, thats’s their problem. I will keep you all updated. Until next time…
