I am tired of being disregarded by old friends because of what I perceive to be a "blowing off of my non-gayness".
I was written off by a friend in SF who always tried to get me drunk -- because she wanted in my pants. Now that I'm here on Guam -- not seen every day -- it's like I don't even exist.
I had another friend in SF who never seemed comfortable in skirts... or even in shirts that fit. She now identifies herself as a male. No surprise. I emailed her, asking how she was... nada.
There have been people who have questioned my sexuality just because of who I'm in love with.
In the past few months, I have been contacted by 2 childhood friends who i haven't seen in years. Both of which have turned out to be gay -- no surprise, i saw it then and didn't care. I exchanged emails with both and neither responded as soon as they found out i had a boyfriend.
I've emailed them both, asking how they are and inquiring about their lives since we've seen each other last -- but nothing.
The flattery has passed.
It irritates me! I'm not a girly girl, but i'm not a butch either. I am currently in love with a man. So? I freely admit that i prefer women, but I cannot help who i fall in love with, and it would be incredibly foolish of me to write someone off just because of their equipment.
BE my friend. You were before sexuality mattered. Now it does, and your judgement hurts.

okay... i have work that i need to be doing, but i needed to post something quickly: on thursday i got my first ever OWN sugar plum kid.
(Sugar plum tree is this... thing that's been going on on guam for the past 21 years, where people who... would otherwise NOT be having a bountiful christmas. like it's women and children from battered homes, or who are in sanctuary... or manam'ko (elderly) who have outlived their family or who have been abandoned by their families. their case workers (or equivalent) submit their names and wishlists to the sugar plum program. and then sugar plum trees are set up and places around the island and people can go and pick names from the tree, buy stuff on the wishlist and bring it to the headquarters, where, on a certain day they'll wrap up everything and deliver the stuff to the case workers. and the stuff will appear under the christmas tree from santa. ... it's really a fantastic program.)
anyways, ever since i can remember my mother has been taking me to adopt a name off the tree. I would save up my allowance and buy something from the wishlist, and of course mom would help me. but this year, it's my first one on my own, with all of my own money. and i'm really, REALLY excited. the kid i adopted wants an acoustic guitar, and i saw this acoustic guitar stage pack on sale at american music. i'm going to get the stuff TODAY!!!
have i mentioned that i'm excited!?
i'm such a panty, i'm tearing up cause this whole program makes me so happy to be me and to be who i am and to have my own circumstances. :)
happy, i tell you.
