What a day. I skipped work because on the way to work I was doing 50 when I should have done 40, and skid off the road, in the process damaging a four month old tire. I'd be the first to admit that I'm probably a hazard on the road. Kudos to the Moira Highway Department, the Volunteer fire department, a mechanic named Tom and numerous strangers for helping me out this afternoon.
Anyways, I'm gearing up for the Spring. I'm making plans to leave my current job and take a gamble with New York City, my city, the city I was conceived and born in. No matter where I am in the world, whether it be Denver, Colorado; Seattle, Washington; Kiev, Ukraine; Ferndale/Brushton/Brandon/Carmel/Brewster, New York or even Weehawken, New Jersey (which is coincidentally right across the river from Midtown Manhattan), New York City will always be home for me in some manner.
The big news is that former Utah governor and one-time presidential candidate Jon Huntsman has come out in favor of same-sex marriage. What Huntsman did in what is probably the most conservative state in the nation during his term, giving same-sex couples some rights. I wish he did more, but considering where he's coming from, it's impressive.
And while we're on the marriage topic, girls, if you want to marry me, be prepared to keep your last name. You're not my property, you're an individual, an equal. Men don't change their last names when they get married, so why should women?
