Why I Have Brought You Here.

This weekend was a monumental one for me. It included various happenings from cleaning my apartment, to having drinks with friends, to coming out to my parents. If you’re not quite sure what part of that agenda caused this weekend in my life to be labeled monumental, I’ll help you out. I finally told my parents that I am a flaming homosexual (using less offensive terminology, of course).

At this point you are thinking at least one (or some variation) of the following:
a) You’re what?
b) What did they say?/How are you?
c) It’s about damn time!

For any individual with any variation of choice “c” currently in his or her thought bubble, I would like to extend a heart-felt f*** you (but thanks for the support)! Realistically, that is probably the most appropriate response, seeing as I’ve been keeping this secret from them for a psychologically unsafe length of time! But with this new development comes a newly found desire to explore and acknowledge my emotions in a new format. Hence this blog!

For all of you who aren’t familiar with this phenomenon which has been sweeping the nation for some time now, a definition:

Blog – (n) a shared on-line journal; a personal chronological log of thoughts published on a Web page.

Since I’m now a New Yorker (I had my one-year anniversary on March 23), I have an incredible muse. This city that I love so much has taught me a great deal about life already. And I can’t wait to see what it has in store for me in the future. This blog will be an outlet for ranting, raving, and rehashing my experiences, emotions and emphatic obsession with alliteration! Feel free to comment or, if so inclined, start a blog of your own. Cheers.
