BEAR CHRISTMAS - CUTE (Woof!)
Dec. 22nd, 2007 12:00 pmStumbled onto this one searching for a Gay Bear Christmas. OLDIE BUT CUTE. And I guess, judging from the tickets.....Um... thank you ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
e_ticket. One of my favorite songs. This is much cuter than Bearforce 1

I ENDED UP AGAIN DOWN IN SAN MATEO, PALO ALTO AND REDWOOD CITY
1. Went to Max Muscle to get a gift card for my trainer. The young buff owner. Cute (gaydar!!!!)
2. Was going to go to awesome Frys Electornics (better than Best Buy); but remembered that the parking is awful year round. So ended up at the mega Safeway in Redwood City @ Sequoia Station and got a Best Buy gift card instead, and other gift cards from smaller stores there.
3. Had delicious roast beef sandwich at a nearby Deli. This large woman walked in in festive holiday wear. Hummm. Big hands, big wide shoulders. And do I see an Adam's apple under the scarf? Ugh. Drag queens or trannys in Redwood City? She/he smiled at me, then ordered her/his food :o)
4. Down to Palo Alto to Restoration Hardware. Love that place! Avoided the APPLE STORE. If I go in, I will come out with something I should not of bought. I love that store too.
So I actually shopped better this yr. For 6 people I got 3 small gifts each. A total of $60-$65 per person. That is pretty good. I used to spend $80-$100 per person.
Then on a more serious note; after shopping,
I was off to a South Palo Alto cemetery to put flowers on my Dad's wall, and on my late partners' grave. It's been over a year, maybe more, since I have visited. This then becomes the time of the year that I reflect briefly on what I have done, and hope to do, and some of my regrets for the year. And maybe changes to come
Some Resolutions:
1. I'm thankful for where I have been, and who I am.
2. Like my job, but don't love it. Is this burnout, boredom, or need a change? I'm updating my resume. The need of change may be part of me needing to change a part of my personal life too.
(But I am so close to SF!) I somewhat regret not taking a management job in West Hollywood. I would of been closer to Palm Springs! More on that later.
3. Thankful for family. Glad we are not totally as dysfunctional as some I've seen. Or are we and I just don't see it. Ye Gads!
4. Of course thankful for the friends and people I have met now, and in the past.
5. My recent mid life crisis, has made me better myself, with the gym and all. Trying to reinvent myself I guess
6. As part of "the crises", I won't buy a corvette, but will work more on fitness (I need to get a colonoscopy! EEK! More on that later too). I'll probably get a tattoo, maybe one more piercing. And who knows??? I would like to have a Harley, or similar. Now that's a crisis!
Just thoughts. Happy Holidays
