8. If I could have any career at all, I would be a pop star with a smooth soul voice and way too much glitter.
   
9. My pet peeve with gay men is the use of the words straight-acting as a positive descriptive term. Do you really hate yourself for your gayness so much that anything identifiable as gay is that distasteful? Get over it guys…a sissy guy facing the world as himself has balls twice the size of the average man. Also, enjoying ESPN does not make you special, it only makes you boring.

11. I am the oldest of my four siblings from my parents’ multiple marriages. I am also the bossiest. My sister Karrie is the only one of all of us who has any sense, yet oddly enough, is also the only one who reads this blog.
