OLDEST 1ST | NEWEST 1ST
Just got off of an amazing phone call with my sweet boyfriend. He has such a cute voice. We had such a great conversation. We laughed, and told stories, neither of us wanted to hang up.
Ok, he wasn’t my boyfriend he was a Verizon technical support rep, but whatever.
No changing your profile picture is not going to change the Supreme Court’s decision, but that’s not what this is about. It’s about support, hope, and love. I have seen so many friends and relatives that I didn’t even know supported equal marriage rights, come out and support. And it makes me feel WONDERFUL and blessed. They have came out and not only supported marriage equality, but also voiced their overall love and support for their LGBT friends and relatives, in all aspects. From acceptance of homosexuality, to shunning those that use the Old Testament and other archaic notions as a weapon to fuel their own discrimination and phobias.
It has also raised a lot of awareness. I can’t tell you how many people asked me what the “red icon thing” is about, and upon finding out about the Supreme Court hearings, they joined in and showed their support, changing their icons as well.
The love and support I have seen today has meant a lot to me, and a lot to others. So no, this Facebook trend is not silly or useless. So for all of you making jokes about how the “red equals sign Facebook icons thing” is stupid, your opinion is moot to me, because this day did more than just raise awareness for a court hearing. It showed me how much love and support there is out there, and it means the world to me.
And the 15 year old me who wanted to kill himself would have benefited so much from a day like this. I can only imagine what it means to young kids today. So get out of here with your hatred, and your need to be “edgy” and always on the contrary opinion. Bye.
I’m sorry, I would bang the hell out of Daniel Tosh. I’ve loved him since 2005, and I met him in 2008 at his stand-up show, and I was a complete wreck, but he hugged me and was super nice.
The friendship bracelet in my fave colors (Gray and black) on my left hand was sent to me by Pam for Christmas last year. I have worn it for an entire year without taking it off and just as it has become dingy, curled up, tattered, and about to fall off, I get this Christmas card from her that arrived on Christmas Eve with a brand new one. Is she good or what? :) She’s the best.
I get to meet my 2 month old nephew for the 1st time tomorrow. My parents don’t even know that my sister is flying in, and we are going to surprise them tomorrow. My Mom just thinks we are having a late birthday party for her, but she doesn’t know she and my Dad are meeting their Grandson :)
Kelly Haro only has months to live. He’s fighting a deadly brain cancer. That didn’t stop him or his bride from having their dream wedding. Jeff Nguyen reports.
That’s my cousin Kelly, one of the strongest men I know. Tonight is the reception for their wedding for the extended family and friends and people that weren’t able to attend the Wedding that Wish Upon A Wedding gave them. I am going, and this might be the last time I get to see him. Anyway, I won’t be posting til much later tonight.
