I'm Frigid
OK, OK, OK...for those that know me most know that the title of this post is more than an accurate statement. While, still the life of the party, I have become a frigid queen in my mid gay life. However, this post really has nothing to to do with personality and more to do with my actual body temperature. I was recently hospitalized again for PCP and an upper lung infection. Yippee! Just another infection which landed me in the hospital for another 3 days. On the plus side of things I finally have enough admissions to have a new hospital wing named after me. Well maybe not but it's in the making :) During my most...

Strike 3 Your'e Ou......Take A Walk?!?
I'm a baseball fan. No doubt about it. GO SOX! As I was walking or limping home last night I got to thinking about my general overall health over the years. It was a lot to take in on a 10 minute walk. But what got me to thinking was how many times I have fought and ultimately one against the odds. In 2001, I took an overdose of antidepressants, and spent days in a coma. Just when the doctors told my friends and family they were no longer going to try and bring me out of the coma because the seizures were too intense, I beat the odds and opened my eyes. Despite their concerns of having permanent brain damage, havin...

What's A Rhino Got To Do With It?
So it would of course be par for the course so to speak that as I attempt to get this up and running again I would be hit with illness. Usually my hospital visits entail being told that I have a virus of some unknown origin never given a name. I've come to accept that as reality. However, when I called out of work on Tuesday and decided that since I am in Management now I probably should have an excuse from a doctor when I call off I made the trek downtown to see my doctor on Tuesday. I got in his office, he finished the exam, politely excused himself came back a few minutes later and told me that he felt admission to ...

Choices, Choices, So Many Choices
I got an e-mail in June of last year from someone who follows my blog asking me to pick my top 3 favorite blog postings. While, I may think it odd someone would want my opinion on my writing it's certainly not the strangest thing I have ever been asked. You have been patient and after 7 months I am going to share my top three favorite blog postings. # 3- February 1, 2010 "My Name Is James" http://stillarriving.blogspot.com/2010/02/my-name-is-james.html This blog posting is in my top 3 because it is the day that my blog truly became what I portrayed it to be.

To Everything There Is A Season
So the title for today was an inspiration I received from my Mother. Actually, the reason for my posting today is because of her. I am going to share the passage from Ecclesiastes 3 1-8. 1 For everything there is a season, and a time for every matter under heaven: 2 a time to be born, and a time to die; a time to plant, and a time to pluck up what is planted; 3 a time to kill, and a time to heal; a time to break down, and a time to build up; 4 a time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to mourn, and a time to dance; 5 a time to cast away stones, and a time to gather stones together; a time to embrace, and a time to ref...

Still alive and kicking!
Hello out there! Well A LOT A LOT A LOT has occured as you can possibly imagine since June of 2011. And we've a lot to cover. First of all I have kept up and checked on occassion in regards to old blog comments and what other bloggers have said. So in that regards I have been around. This blog was/is a wonderful outlet for me to come to especially when I am sick. I get to have random and crazy rants and say things that I WOULD never never say in public because for some reason it's just more acceptable in writing. It has it's purpose and it's time. I have found my true calling in life. No, it's not being a porn s...
