The inner me is knocking hard to come out

AHHHHHHHH! Thats what I hear from my inner self every time I wake up in the morning, crawl out of bed, smile at myself in the mirror, then suppress my gayness for another day at work. I want to do something, or change something in my life that I don't have to wake up and change who I am for the day.

Well I have to get going back to work.

So a couple of weeks ago I was working on a mussel relocation, working with a biologist that we have worked with many times before. The last time I worked with him I was just letting any ribbing go about me, but this time I was more absorbed with it, and played with the ribbing a little bit. I have said some things here and there but I didn't think I was being too obvious about. One day after work, one of the other guys grabbed my cell phone and jokingly typed in "I am gay", just before we got to the hotel. I grabbed my phone and typed a message back to him "I do not all the time agree with everything pat says", The biologist got the message while I was standing next to them. "Oh so you don't deny it" he says. I just walked away laughing.

The next day on the boat two divers were in the water, and the other two topside people were swimming cooling down, so it was just him and I. He looked at me and asked me straight out, "so have you told anyone at Mainstream". After I got done choking on my coke, I looked at him and said "no". He thought it would be a good idea to keep it quiet at work.

Well today he spend all day with the boss, and sometimes they get talking and who knows what will bleed out. I don't think he will say anything, but if he does, i think i will be okay with it.

Well hope you enjoyed my blog. I know I do.

Let people be people

I was going through the drive through the other day, when I noticed the girl in the drive through window. She had a large band-aid on her neck. At first thought, wow that must be some cut, but then I realized that it was to cover a tattoo. Now personally I don't have any tattoos, but I don't mind if someone does. Same thing with ear rings, why should people have to cover up. Our society is still heavily focused on dictating the way a person should act, or a person should look. Weather or not that person has piercings, tattoos, gay, straight, or whatever, we need to be more accepting in this world of a persons individuality, and not suppress it. I know that there are probably good times to have to cover up you uniqueness, but a person running the drive-through at a fast food restaurant should not have to cover up a tattoo, it is more gaudy seeing a band-aid than it is to see the tattoo.

Does anyone else agree.
