I got a bunch of dance magazines (5 boxes) to begin a project on modified able-bodied dance magazines to begin modifying the vocabulary for use by disabled people and mixed ability groups. I took me about an hour to get the magazines, but it should be worth it if the project goes well. So far, I've... Sign in to see full entry.

Doctors and Hockey...
I'm back from the doctors and my hockey practice. I had four hours of doctor visits and saw my heart and brian and machines. I had two IV's and got bruises because they had to push my arm straight. It was sort of neat to see my parts, but the MRI was not cool. The med techs were useless in terms of... Sign in to see full entry.
Early Morning...
I'm up early to do some testing at my doctor's office. I couldn't sleep last night; despite going to bed early. I woke up at 7 AM my time. I'm waiting for my PCA to come make breakfast. I think I'll have eggs. I tried to call Kenya this morning as well, but no luck; so I sent an e-mail to them. Sign in to see full entry.

Snow Day...
It's a big snoe stoem here; I'm stuck inside with just the TV and the computer. I'll walk to the store later and pick up some stuff. Tomorrow is hockey practice and I can't wait; I have a busy week this week with the music network. I'm borrowing $60 from mom. Maybe I'll wait a bit later... See ya! Sign in to see full entry.

Miss America Can't Dance...
I was watching the finals of Miss America 2006; I don't know why I am, but I am. Three of the finalists were dancers (two ballerinas and a tapper) and their technique was horrible. The moves they were doing won't that difficult or anything. I may not do able-bodied dance for obvious reasons, but... Sign in to see full entry.
Brokeback Mountain (or Why This Queer Chick Isn't Moving to Wyoming Ever)
I saw Brokeback Mountain today; it's an amazing and sad film. Bring tissues. All throughout the film which spanned over 20 years, I kept routing for Ennis and Jack, the main characters. I kept thinking; towards the end the '80's, in the film, and Stonewall Rebelion already happened. Deal with... Sign in to see full entry.
Blogit and Me...
I think I've spent $135.80 on Blogit since I've joined it, but it's been good writing practice for me and of vourse I've loved getting to know you all. I've made 42.08; that's about a third of my fee. I vow to earn the rest of my fee back this year or I'll retire from Blogit and switch to a free... Sign in to see full entry.

Writing Early, Random Thoughts....
I'm e up arly today; trying a new program to make me sleep better. You see, I can still go to bed whatever I want as long I get up by 9 or 10 AM each morning. This is my first morning and I feel really good and empowered. We'll see how it goes. I'm sure I'll fall off the wagon sometimes or get sick... Sign in to see full entry.

More on David...
I have had a bad day. My friend David died. I miss him. Read his eulogy here. I don't know what I'm going to say to his friend and personal care assistant Frank, my blind activist friend. They are not an item or anything, (they're both straight), but they've been Frank and David for years. David is... Sign in to see full entry.
