I am being inundated with notifications from the other blog site about all the changes they are making--really sounds more complicated to me--I love this site for 2 reasons:



1)It is easy to work for a illiterate computer guy like me



2) with the exception of 3 people (of
whom I think one has disappeared again!) everyone here is loving, kind,
respectful and treat each other positively.



(I
think it is ironic that the aforementioned 3 are the only ones who have
said anything negative to or about me during my ordeal of the past 4
months or have been negative about or towards other people!)



I have just learned that a friend of mine has metastatic
cancer and will start heavy chemo tomorrow and it all happened in the
past two weeks or, at least, discovered during that period.



Due to economics this is the first Gay Men's Christmas show that I will have to miss and they always put a person in the holiday mood/spirit.



Hey, AJ, I just may be going to see that vampire movie--"Twilight"?--on Friday! See the influence you have on me?!



I get to use the car tomorrow and go food shopping on my own schedule--feels s-o-o-o-o-o good!!!



I hope everyone has a great day
including the one who will always 'call me out' , always has to start trouble once it has calmed down and tells other people to just stop and say they are a good
'christian', the one who uses the 'fa' word showing disrespect to/towards me since I
asked them not to and also says I look like I am dying and the third
who always tries (and try means failure) to put me down by using
negative gay terms though that person is gay also. All in all I have to
thank the three of them for the laughs they provide me!!!



Ah, it feels good to be positive again!!!!

wow!!!!!!guess I have been sleeping through all of this.
Cannot keep up with the comments on this blog.
Well anyways,who listen to that person.
Hope that the person does not get the best of you.

I can just imagine how cold you must feel because I'm darn cold here! This dipping into the 20's (with wind chill in the teens) is not mixing very well with me.

I guess "Twilight" is going to be a huge success, huh? There's so much frenzy over it that it's bound to be a huge moneymaker.

You take care, Martin. I'm not going to comment on anything else because I wasn't here to see or hear anything. I just knew a long time ago when everybody shifted over here that s**t was going to go on here, too. But, like with any other site and/or thing in life, we just go on with as much focus on what's important in our lives and with our friends as much as possible.

I appreciate the "truth teller" revealing all three, because I really wasn't certain who the third is. I am not familiar with that third person, but because I mentioned it I am sure this may bring another firestorm from persons number one and two, even though I'm not "bashing" anyone.
Oh, by the way, we are ALL dying. This started from the moment we took our first breath. It is the smile on your face in those pictures that show you are LIVING. And living richly, my friend.

Oh no Martin it hadn't calmed down because she wrote this last blog the night before I wrote mine defending myself presenting the TRUTH!

https://mybloggers.com/elkhound/stomachs_rain_pushing.html

Then mine was written:

https://mybloggers.com/texastar/response_elkhounds_outhouse.html

Which took her all of 36 hours before she bashed me again.

https://mybloggers.com/busymichmom/texastars_email_message_comment.html

So who are the ones not letting it go??? YOU and YOUR FRIENDS!!

I will continue to defend myself when you and your friends bash me.

Back to your old self. Yeah, insulting and bashing others who you don't like. Heck you never even gave me a chance you just started bashing me from the time you came to blogster. Mad at me because of my choice for an American Idol Contestant and bashed me on MY blog for that. You just can't let it go! I was really hoping you would have learned some things this summer and for awhile there you seemed to have. But, I can see you are back to the same old ways.

Blogging and putting yourself up on a pedastal. I have never seen someone so self=absorbed and egotistical as you. Here is a picture of me before my haircut, here is one after, with glasses, without glasses. In these pants, in this shirt, by the car, in the parking lot. Before I ate, after I ate. GOOD GRIEF!!! Sad really sad! So hey Martin, you LEAVE ME and MY FAMILY ALONE and I can LEAVE YOU ALONE!!! Fair enough?

well, ya know Marty in every group of human beings there are some who are a--holes. I don't have a problem with anyone here in MyBloggerstown save for one. Several months ago I was in the chat room with him and several others and he used the "n" word to indicate some people of color. I asked him to kindly refrain but he continued so now I don't chat with this character or read his stuff. Otherwise I have no problems. I want our little cyber town to be happy and a place were all can express feelings without making horse's butts out of themselves or hurting the feelings of others. We can disagree without being disagreeable.

reguards
yer I wonder who the other 2 are pal

I will always have your back my friend,and yes that "person" is an incredible jerk
comment by redwolftimes on Nov 19, 2008 6:00 PM ()
I am so sorry to hear about your friend. That is terrible news. I will keep him in my thoughts.
I am sorry people were jerks to you while you have been in recovery. Even when we disagree with people, we need to learn to respect that they need space when they are recovering. Apparently, they don't believe in that.
I am not sure when I am going to get to see "Twilight." It is not a traditional vamp movie. More teen romance that true vamp tale. Very modern, Gothik, though.
