They wasn't sure they was comin this year coz my Grandma hasn't been feeling well but she told me today that she was comin wouldn't miss spendin Christmas with me. Ya'll know I am a Mommies' boy but I am also a Grandmas' boy. I am so happy today Happy HNT!
Later from Atlanta!
I hate coming back home after spending a few days with Ryan. I hate getting up the next morning and getting back into the same old boring job. Things are gonna change though with the new year coming in. I was gonna spend Christmas here at home with my mom cause I thought my sister wasn't coming in for the holidays. Well turns out she is coming in after all. Some of you may remember me and my sister don't get along at all. Shes one of those religous nuts who reads the bible and intereprets it to suit her. So her views and mine on being gay don't match at all. I haven't seen her since I told my mom that I was gay. I can just imagine what its gonna be like at my house so Ill just skip that mess all together. I got a place to go for Christmas anyway so its all good. Ryan was talking about coming up here for Christmas but thats out of the question. I can just see him and my sister getting into cause he definitely wouldn't put up with any of her shit. It'll be my first Christmas with Ryan and his family so that'll be really cool Im sure. Ryans mom goes crazy with the decorating inside and out.
On my last trip down to Ryans a snapped a couple pics while driving. Nothing all that interesting but it shows how bare the mountains are now. Their taken on Sandstone Mountain near Beckley if anyones familiar with the area. The other pic is not far from my house taken from a overlook area.
I always hate this day when Mikey leaves I feel so empty on the inside. I had a really good Thanksgiving I hope ya'll did as well. I am not sure if Mikey comin here 4 Christmas or if I am going up there I told I would go up there but I think it depends on his Mom. It will kinda be strange for me if I do go up I have never been away from my family on Christmas but 4 Mikey I'll do anything 2 b with him. I think Mikey still get's surprised how much food my Mom fixes not only 4 a holiday but all the time and my family so open 2 us I know it blows him away. Be nice if more people were open like my folks. I do have 2 say it's taken my Dad a little longer but I understand.
Ok now I have 2 get into the football we went 2. I am a big Falcons fans but I hope the rest of the season they lose every game. For those that don't watch football let me tell you what happen besides losing the game. The fans and me being 1 of them were upset that we got beat so we booed and the quarterback Michael Vick cussed the fans on his way off the field and flipped them off. This 2 me is uncalled for later in a press confess he said he was sorry he was just upset on how the game was going I think that's a copout. Like I said I hope they lose every game the have left this year and I think there Falcons need 2 start looking for a new quarterback when a player acts like that toward fans I lose respect for them. Just my 2 cents.
Vick let fans have it.
So I got a question 4 ya How many of you already got your Christmas decorations up?
Later from Atlanta!
I was thinking I would try to make this weeks city harder. Yall seem to be guessing them pretty easy. So this week there's only going to be one clue and if you have been around long enough to read the entire blog you just may guess the city. The very first time Ryan and I met was in this city. We stayed at a Super 8 motel. That weekend I had to delete my blog cause my sister found it. Then I started this one so you wont find the name of the city but you might find another clue if you read the archives.
Yesterday we just stayed around the house. Ryans mom and dad and brother and sister went Christmas shopping so we had the house to ourselves for a few hours. We watched my West Virginia team get beat which sucked ass and not in a good way either. Today were going to the Falcons with Ryans dad and little brother. Their playing the Saints and will probably get beat but Ryans got season tickets so just as well go and try to root them on to a win.
Everywhere in the city we were shopping all day. I love the holidays all the Christmas stuff up. Somewhere in the city my sexy boyfriend hated shopping he even stay in the car a few times poor guy. Me & Mom just wore him out. Now it's time 4 me 2 get him in the hot tub and make him feel all better! More 2 come later hope ya'll enjoyed black Friday!
Later from Atlanta!
Well I was one of the millions of people traveling yesterday. Im getting to spend Thanksgiving with my favorite turkey. My mom wanted to spend the holiday with a sister of hers that I don't really like and I had somewhere I really wanted to be instead so I dropped her off and headed south. OMG the traffic was terrible bumper to bumper for miles. This will be the first of many Thanksgiving me and Ryan spend together. Hopefully soon I can say Im not a visitor and move for good. Thats close to coming true just a few more things I need to take care of up there first. Ryans mom was describing what all shes fixing for dinner. OMG shes doing it up good thats for sure. I all ready had some turkey when I got here but I got room for more.
Ryan's all ready said he's planning on doing some major shopping on Friday so I got that to look forward to I think. Im not much for shopping which he finds hard to believe. He always says your gay aint you boy you have to love shopping. So he's teaching me the shopping ropes.
I found this cartoon and thought it was really funny. I know its a little naughty but were all adults.
I hope everyone has a wonderfully Happy Thanksgiving and don't eat to much!!
I always wonder why do we dream and what do they mean when we do? Last night I had this crazy dream I was in the woods and this guy had control over me making me do crazy things. He had Mikey & my Mom said if I didn't do what he said he would kill them. I was in this car trying 2 get it unstuck and I lost my shoe and it fell down this hill I was tryin 2 go down this hill 2 get it and these strange kids pop up out of no where sayin something I couldn't make out and 1 of them jump off this bridge 4 no reason at all. The other 1 handed me a cup of worms for what I don't know and was pointin so I walk that way he was pointing all the same time looking 4 my shoe. I look up this hill and see my Mikey & Mom tied 2 this stake with some strange standing with them. Then I woke up I am so confused what it means.
Right away I called Mikey woke him up got him all upset thinkin something was wrong then I went downstairs and check on my Mom 2 make sure she was ok and she jump up what's wrong baby. I told her about the dream she said it's only a dream baby go back 2 sleep she sat with me until I fell asleep. Yes I am a big baby and a big mommy's boy I can't help that always have been. I just like 2 know what dreams really mean it was strange and I have them strange dreams all the time are they suppose 2 mean something? Does anybody know or can point me in the right direction maybe a website or something. I think I need 2 go shopping and give my mind a rest haha ok so I'm gay people I love shopping! Woo hoo Mikey will be here tonight!!!!!
Later from Atlanta!
What a blast I had at the race and I am happy Jimmie Johnson won the cup. It's was his first and I bet won't be his last. Saturday's Busch race was a little scary if anyone seen it Reed's car blew up and when I say blew up it blew up fire and smoke every where thank God he was hurt at all just scare the crap out of him. I hate 2 see a car catch on fire don't matters who is drivin it I have my pick of drivers but I don't want 2 see any of them hurt. My Sunday's gonna be lost for a couple months now that Nascar season is over I am looking forward 2 February now Daytona 500 baby and I will be there!
One thing I did want 2 talk about is how often I heard fag, fagot, queer these words don't normally bother me but it does bother me how these people were using them. It shows me how far we think we come in our cause when your with a group of 100,000 people or more we haven't come far at all. It's sad when people just use these words and think it's ok not only that but kids using these words like they are everyday words. We as gay people have came far but not far enough you know all we ask for is equal rights as everyone else. We as humans need 2 stop the hate that we have for other people only coz we are different from 1 another. Women had 2 fight 4 there rights the color people had 2 fight 4 there rights I guess now we do but people there something wrong with America when a person is still killed when he is just different from someone else. You think I don't know what I am talking about maybe you should ask Judy Shepard she lost her son Matthew in Wyoming all because he was gay.
Later from Atlanta!

Here in a little bit I will b getting on a plane and headin south once again this time 2 Miami airport then a short ride over 2 Homestead meeting my friend 4 the last Nascar race of the season I am so happy right now only thing that would make it better is if Mikey was going with me. Maybe next year he will be. I can't believe this is the last race until Febuary. Yes I will be going 2 the Daytona 500 then and Mikey will be with me fot that race I can't wait!
Ok everyone knows that I am a Brian Vickers fan and Reed of course and Mikey is a Kasy Kahne fan but this weekend I am a Jimmie Johnson fan. I have always been a Jeff Gordon fan and if you like Gordon you gotta Like Jimmie. Now I want Brian, Reed or Kasey 2 win the race but I want Jimmie 2 finish 12th or better this weekend so he will with the championship. He has been runner up a few times for the cup but this time he has a shot 2 win his first Nextel Cup so this weekend I am the biggest Jimmie Johnson fan you will see!
That's it for today kids so go out and make it a wonderful weekend!
Go Jimmie Go!
Mikey's football team won last night the West Virginia Mountaineers if they don't move up in the standings this Sunday I'm gonna be pissed. Now the gators and ohio state need 2 lose this weekend! Ok that's it 4 sports this week I think hehe!
I know we don't do these HNT like we use 2 maybe we will do them once a month or so. I think it's a good idea gets people 2 visit blogs maybe they wouldn't find any other way. Besides nothing wrong with a little skin in a clean way right? So if you want 2 know all about HNT and want 2 do it on your blog visit the HNT guy who started it all and find out what it's all about.
Now the surprise my friend called me ask me if I wanted 2 come 2 the last race of the year down in Homestead I said sure would love 2. So Friday morning I am gonna b flying into Miami and going 2 the track and hang out with him and catch the race! I am so freaken happy I wanted 2 go but didn't want 2 call and ask him like that's the only reason I want 2 b friends with him. I wish Mikey could go with me but since he gonna be speanding Thanksgiving with me he can't I can'r wait until we r living together so he can go 2 these things with me.
Later and HHNT!
I can't believe what a great time I had in Florida with Ryan the past week. Well I guess I can I mean I didn't think we wouldn't get along great cause we did. It was just to good to be true I reckon but it was true, every wonderful minute of it. The longest we had spent together was over the summer when we went camping and that wasn't ideal conditions. I loved going to sleep curled up next to him and waking up in the morning and he's still there curled up all warm and toasty. We spent a lot of time on the beach which was awesome. I caught a couple of guys eyeing Ryan so I had to make sure I kept ahold of his hand to let them know he's taken. We went out to eat twice at a place called The Oyster Bar. Im not a big fan of seafood other than fish but they had the best seafood I had ever eaten. I did discover that Ryan loves to cook. Thats good cause I hate to. Ill make a fried bologna sandwich and grab some chips and call it a meal. Hes just the oppisite he loves grilling steaks and the whole nine yards. He can't get over the fact that I like my steak well done. He says thats ruining it. I said whatever there's only one kind of meat I like raw and it's not a steak. We were just like a old married couple cleaning house and doing laundry. We returned the house to his uncle just like he left it. Although there was a few little stains on the living room carpet. I think we got them all out.
I seen this in the news this morning and thought what a good topic 2 throw my 2 cents in on. First off I will show u the write up on what Elton John said and then give my 2 cents in on it.
LONDON - Elton John has said organized religion should be banned because it promotes homophobia and turns some people into "hateful lemmings."
'I Would Ban Religion Completely' Sir Elton John thinks all religions should be banned because they turn people into "really hateful lemmings."
"Religion has always tried to turn hatred toward gay people. It turns people into hateful lemmings and it is not really compassionate."
The singer, who tied the knot with long-term partner David Furnish in a civil ceremony last year, said he admired the teachings of Jesus Christ, but disliked religious bodies.
"The reality is that organized religion doesn't seem to work," he added.
Seen and Heard The 59-year-old singer, who has sold an estimated 200 million records, is no stranger to controversy.
In 2000, he hit out at the "ignorance" of the Roman Catholic church after a priest said homosexuals were engaged in "a lifestyle that can never respond to the deepest longings of the human heart."
Since then he has received blanket media coverage for a series of high-profile outbursts.
In May, he launched an expletive-laden tirade against the press at the Cannes film festival, telling photographers: "You should all be shot."
In 2004, he was filmed shouting at Taiwanese photographers for surprising him as he arrived at Taipei airport, calling them "rude, vile pigs."
He criticized pop star Madonna a week later, accusing her of charging fans outrageous prices to see her lip-synch in concert.
In an interview, he said his "bad temper and irrationality" emerged only when he was tired.
Copyright 2006 The Associated Press. Now I agree with Elton on this and I know I am gonna take a lot of heat 4 it but I have 2 be honest. I like Elton am not sayin get rid of religion I myself believe in God and I believe he made me the way I am for a reason. I do believe a lot of religion hide behind the bible or use the bible 2 preach hate and that 2 them makes it ok. I for 1 do not want 2 be in line when God calls his children home for I think a lot of these church going people gonna get a big shock. We use 2 go 2 church all the time and 4 those been readin this blog and my old 1 knows they ask my Mom & Dad 2 send my 2 a camp 2 get me right. Course my Mom went off on them we haven't been back. So yeah I think what Elton said has some truth in it and I agree with!
I also think hate starts at home I think parents are just as much at fault as the church they may go to. I also think kids are just meant 2 be mean sometimes no matter how they were raised sometimes u just have a bad seed. I think because we are different from 1 another makes us all great but some people look at different as a bad thing and what 2 hate what they see as different. Don't matter if it's gay, fat, coz u were glasses or like in the middle east a religion matter it's different and people can't deal with something that is different so they have 2 hate it. The day when we don't look at a person as differnt and look at that person as a person then we all can get along and the hate will stop. We need 2 stop all the hate in the world and if that means going into some of these churchs and make them stop preaching hate then I am all for it!
Sendin Hugs Out 2 Ya'll!

I am learnin a lot this week being with Mikey only makes me know I want 2 spend my life with him. I know I am young but I know he is my soul mate I know I have said it b4. I also learn some things about him I didn't know as he has learn some about me. 1 thing I have learned Mikey is a night person and I am a mornin person. If he has a reason 2 get up he will but if not he likes 2 sleep. I also learn he like his back and butt scratched. I also know I want and I am ready 4 us 2 take that chance and live together full time. We have talked about it a lot this week and he is ready also. I think maybe us getting our own place would b best kinda like neutral ground. I need 2 get his lazy butt up soon! Oh we got some really cool hnt pics that we will b puttin up just not every week so keep an eye out 4 that!
Looks like the people of America spoke in Tuesdays election and it says we are tired of the bull shit coming out of the white house. All I want 2 say is don't stop with the election keep fighting if something pisses u off write your congress person or your senator or whoever u have 2 let them know. It's time 4 a change and America finally stood up and said we want a change and want it know stayin the course is not workin. At least we got some more open minded people in there. Don't look for a big change quick but look for 1 I think its coming just b a little slow. Bush will have 2 years of pure hell in the White House and now he knows it that's why he tryin 2 change things now with Rumsfeld steppin down please who they kiddin he didn't do it on his own he was ask 2.
