2011 and Still Us

Isn’t it nice when you go back to something that you haven’t seen in awhile and realize that it is the same, yet so much a has changed. This is how my life and friends are. There are a few times that we stop talking in order to deal with life in our own corners of the world but when we resume or friendship, we find that things are pretty much the same. This tends to always around the holidays.

When Christmas and New Year’s hit most of us trade friend time for family time and when the middle of January rolls around we find that a lot has happened but we are still pretty much right where we left one another.

Jaiye is now living with Phil. Right after the holidays the people Jaiye were living with were evicted for being in violation of their lease. So Phil allowed Jaiye t come life with him. Phil, being the smart guy that he is, told Jaiye that he could only stay with him for two weeks. It’s understandable considering from what we have observed, the best way to squash your friendship with Jaiye is to let him come live with you.

As for Phil he is still seeing Billy and things are going well for the mast part. During the holidays Phil saw the first promising sign that Billy sees Phil as his boyfriend and that Phil over analyzes things. Billy asked what he was doing for new years, translation, what are doing and who you doing it with? All because Billy was spending the holidays with his family in California and was not coming home till the 4th. With Billy now being split between three states I am amazed that things are going well, considering a false HIV alarm and Phil’s obsession with getting revenge on the ex.

RJ and Adam are, well, RJ and Adam. The love of RJ’s life is behind bars for something that the group really doesn’t care about and RJ promises to be there for him and available when he gets out. RJ’s friends support him but we all think he is wasting his time. Damn gays and their drama queens.

Adam is still planning to get an apartment with Jaiye and Jaiye is still not over his ex. Leads one to believe that men named Josh are to serve one purpose, Break men’s hearts.

As for me, well I realized what is important in life. There was talk of me leaving MeTo after the holidays but I soon realized that he is more perfect than imperfect and our love runs to deep for each other. School is supposed to start in a few weeks and I can’t wait.  I want my degree more than anyone knows. Barns and Noble is proving to be a bust with no hours this month things are financially tight with MeTo and I, I now have to wait till February to go see my friends in Philadelphia but in the mean time it looks like I may have a chance at a job at a local gay night club.  So here’s to 2011.
