A Message from the Closet...

Well, what has been going on with me? Quite a bit, actually. I have been meaning to update this a few times, but honestly, I forget to, or get too tired to.

I got back from vacation last night. I spent the last week and a half in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania visiting my parents and extended family. It was a nice trip and fairly relaxing. Saturday, my parents, grandma, cousin, aunt and I went to the Washington County Fair where we saw a lot of farm animals as agriculture is a very important aspect of Washington County, where my family lives and so they have auctions and shows for the animals. During a concert at the fair, they were giving out door prizes. I ended up winning a prize but gave it to my dad because it was a $5 gift card to a local grocery store. Considering I don't live there, it would be slightly hard for me to use it. In return, my dad gave me a $25 gift card to Best Buy because he said he wouldn't use it. He also bought me a pair of sunglasses, but I seem to have already lost them.

On Thursday, I took my grandma and cousin out to lunch at Red Robin. Afterwards, my grandma took my cousin and I around Washington to show me a shopping center that was recently built, but has found itself abandoned because the construction company built monstorous walls around the buildings which caused the buildings flooring to crack and start to collapse. The walls were literally three to four stories high which weakened the ground. She also took us to Kohls, where she bought me six new shirts for fall and winter... its always great to be spoiled by grandma :).

After lunch, we headed back to my grandma's house, where my parents, aunt and uncle came over for dinner. Shortly after dinner, I was in the living room by myself when my mom came in. She sat next to me and said, "do you have a girlfriend?" I replied, "no." She continued to inquire and said, "have you ever had a girlfriend?" I responded with, "no." She stared at me for a minute and then said, "Well, I'm pretty convinced that you are never going to have any kids." She continued to stare at me, while I told her I was still undecided about kids. She kept looking at me as though she was waiting for me to tell her something. I'm pretty sure she was fishing around to see if I would mention my sexuality. I think my parents would be fairly supportive of me as they both are close friends with a gay man... I'm just not ready for that part of my life where I tell them. I'm not 100% sure of what I am yet, so I would like to sort all of that out before I talk to them about it. In time, I am sure I will.. unless I end up with a woman.

Oh well, there are some other things I could write about, but I think thats enough for now.
