ok, how did Lindsay Lohan suddenly decide she was a lesbian? i don't understand how someone just wakes up one morning and decides they're gay. she wasn't gay before. now she's dating a woman? what? reminds me of Anne Heche back in the day. remember when all of a sudden, Anne Heche was gay and dating Ellen? LOL. apparently her lesbianism lasted for like a month, then wore off. cuz she hasn't been with a woman ever since.

and Clay Aiken JUST announced he was gay this week? i could've sworn he already had done that! i'm not even kidding...i already knew he was gay. not just because i have eyes and ears, but because i really remember him already saying that he was gay a long time ago - didn't he?

the article said he felt he could no longer hide his homosexuality from the world. um....WHERE exactly was he hiding it? if he was "in the closet," his closet was transparent and had no doors or walls.

and David Blaine needs to just go somewhere and stop. stop it, David. while i find him awfully cute, he clearly has low self-esteem. anyone who would repeatedly, publicly try to tempt the angel of death, all for show and for the sake of breaking records, CLEARLY is addicted to getting attention and trying to make a name for himself.

the man hung upside for 60 hours. for what? seriously, what is the point? risking bodily injury and coming dangerously close to death every few months just to impress people is annoying and sad. just stop. stop it, David. stop.

as my sweet Tracy would say, "come Lord, Jesus. come." :-D

ok, so since i love you all, i will let you in on a secret.

i was watching Dancing With the Stars last night, a show that i don't usually watch but i like Toni Braxton and wanted to see her dance. anyway, so i was watching it and decided that i can be a dancer too. so i turned up the volume really loudly on the tv and danced with the stars. i must say, i'm talented. dragonfly's got some fancy footwork. my downstairs neighbor probably hates me after last night because i was dancing a jig all over her ceiling. but please, i can't let that stop me from my dreams. LOL

i think i'm going to sign up for a swing dance class or something.

on a whole other avenue, why do people ask you for honest opinions, but then get mad when you tell them??

i don't even let people rope me into that anymore. the guy who didn't play his hand right and is now exiled forever into the Friend Zone never to be released again, recently asked me how i felt about some aspects of him. he asked, so i told - respectfully, but i told. and he got all weird and defensive.

so yesterday, he tries to rope me into a similar conversation, asking me to name things i would change about him if i could. and i absolutely refused to answer, citing the previous incidence. and do you know he got funky with me because i wouldn't answer? don't ask me questions whose answers you can't handle. he's about to be further exiled from the Friend Zone to the Island of Misfit Toys (watch Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer if don't get that reference).

when will i learn.

No puedo pedir que el invierno perdone a un rosal;
No puedo pedir a los olmos que entreguen peras;
No puedo pedirle a lo eterno a un simple mortal,
Y andar arrojando a los cerdos miles de perlas.

the above lyrics, somewhat loosely translated, mean

"I cannot ask the winter to spare the rosebush;
I cannot ask elm trees to grow pears;
I cannot ask for eternal things from a simple mortal,
and i cannot keep throwing thousands of pearls before swine."

in other words, i need to learn that it makes no sense to expect someone to be something they are not, to expect someone to give what they cannot give. and giving more of myself isn't going to change those who do not have the power to appreciate it.

one day, i'll finally grasp that lesson. until then, i guess i'll continue to be frustrated.
