My family is HUGE. Statistically i have gay relatives but none that are out. I wish they were. I would go to more family reunions.
Yay, Tom!!!
No. And yes. It's always sudden.

Cash, I'm so sorry about DH's job. I say you move here!
In other news, do you think it's a problem that when Noah drops shit attitude with me that I finish every sentence of my response to him with "Motherfucker" under my breath?

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
For the second (third?) time this week, I'm arguing over the definition of marriage with this same guy on facebook. This is getting tiring.
Oh. And now he's expanded it to contraception.

So far as I know it's me and one deceased cousin in my generation out of 20. Though the other cousin I once would have bet folding money on is now happily married with a kid.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
I'm sorry about DH's job, Cashmere, but may he quickly find a position/company he likes better.
Congratulations, Tom! Job-five!
(Okay, if you never watched Scrubs that'll make no sense, but I keep wanting to say it anyway.)
JZ, Evo Psych Buffy Guy is very very sad. I hope his children shed his miserable attitude like snakeskin and molt into emotionally healthy humans.
I had a great-uncle who was almost certainly gay, but that's the only one I know of, or even suspect.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Only if he can hear it!
I am the only queer I know of in my family. My one cool cousin may be asexual, not sure. I don't know if she knows.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
My father only has one out gay blood relative, so I suppose he just wasn't paying attention to his wife's family. M, who's getting married in December (uh, to a woman) has one lesbian and one bisexual sister, and her mother is bi too. My mother's sister is gay, and she married a gay man, and her daughter thought she was gay until she worked out the issue was that she was a he. So...back to straight. My mother's other sister has one gay daughter...well, .I swear she's gay and only sleeps with guys for appearances, but she's only recently admitted to me she sleeps with women (I'd keep tacking "or girlfriend?" onto any relationshippy (or not even relationshippy) statement to her)--she finally snapped a couple years ago).
And, really, there a lot of family whose business we're not all up into.

Roller derby looks like a ton of fun, but I'm pretty much certain that it would get a "hell no" from every one of my doctors and physical therapists.
I am too fat and out of shape for plain old roller skating, much less derby. And then there's my back. But damn if derby doesn't look like a hella good time.

Lisah, I just read up more on the neurostimulation. If you could indeed ask about it...I just got to the 6-8 weeks not lifting anything heavier than 5 lbs...the fuck?
I can't do that. I don't have the luxury of not coping for myself. That's my laptop back and forth from work, right there. Never mind the things I haven't thought about yet.
