What I’ve Learned …

I’ve learned that trying to keep this journal updated daily and moving at the same time is impossible. My days lately have been filled with going to work during the day, coming home to pick up things for the apartment, then running over to the apartment to take care of things or unpack, then running back home to sleep. Everything starts over the next day. I even missed my first Monday class, because I had to meet with the landlord, but won’t be missing my Wednesday class tomorrow night.

I promise to fill you all in once I get settled, which should begin this weekend, when I do a major move.

Until then, I apologize in advance for the cheat entry, using a forward someone sent to me. Talk to you all later.

I’ve learned about my roommate in the last few days. Even though I’m not moved in or sleeping their, I’ve tried to spend a few hours a night there, even if it’s just watching television, so we can get used to each other. We are very similar, which is almost scary. For example, we like similar foods, we are both allergic to nuts, we like the same sauce from Costco, and quite a few other things. I’ll have to go into more detail when I’m finally up and running, but thought I’d mention that.

Lessons I’ve learned …

I’ve learned that you cannot make someone love you. All you can do is stalk them and hope they panic and give in.

I’ve learned that no matter how much I care, some people are just assholes

I’ve learned that it takes years to build up trust, and only suspicion, not proof, to destroy it.

I’ve learned that you can get by on charm for about fifteen minutes. After that, you’d better have a big dick or huge tits.

I’ve learned that you shouldn’t compare yourself to others – they are more fucked up than you think.

I’ve learned that you can keep puking long after you think you’re finished.

I’ve learned that we are responsible for what we do, unless we are celebrities.

I’ve learned that regardless of how hot and steamy a relationship is at first, the passion fades, and there had better be a lot of money to take its place.

I’ve learned that sometimes the people you expect to kick you when you’re down will be the ones who do.

I’ve learned that we don’t have to ditch bad friends because their dysfunction makes us feel better about ourselves.

I’ve learned that no matter how you try to protect your children, they will eventually get arrested and end up in the local paper.

I’ve learned that the people you care most about in life are taken from you too soon and all the less important ones just never go away.

I’ve learned to say “Fuck ’em if they can’t take a joke” in 6 languages.

Pass this along to 5 friends … trust me, they’ll appreciate it. Who knows, maybe something good will happen. If not … tough shit.

My question of the day tonight is, er, well, a little involved, so if you aren’t ready for something graphic, this is the time to go to another journal.

I’m going to leave this reader anonymous, and answer the question that way. Are you ready? Here’s the question:

Okie Dokie. Like I said, I’ll answer your questions, so I’ll try to do my best with this. What have I gotten myself into. 🙂

Basically, circumcision is the cutting away of the foreskin of the penis. Sort of like extra skin that covers the head of the penis. So, your boyfriend still has that extra skin covering that up. Back in the day, circumcision was a procedure that many guys had, because it was thought to prevent infections to the area. For example, after showering, your boyfriend has to pull the skin back and really make sure to dry himself off or the moisture could cause a rash or infection in the area.

As for what you do about it, I’m not quite clear on what you mean. I have a feeling your aren’t talking about buying him a card or something, “Horray, you aren’t circumcized!”, so I’ll go out on a limb and guess you are talking about sex or something. Basically, during the aroused state, it doesnt matter whether you are or arent circumcized, because the blood flow all goes to the penis causing it to become longer, harder, etc. and the foreskin pulls tight. So you shouldn’t have to do anything differently. However, I dont want you to take this as an approval to have sex. If you haven’t had it, I recommend you wait until you really feel you are ready, and never do anything prematurely.

I’m not sure I can really go to much more into detail about this in this forum, so if you have questions requiring more detail, email me and I’ll do my best to provide an answer.

As for the rest of you, if you feel you have a question about me or something else, feel free to use the question box in the right hand column and I’ll do my best to answer it …
