About Me
- AttemptingthePath
- I’m a twenty-nothing who is trying desperately to figure out my seemingly complicated life that includes being a SSA/Homo/Gay/Whatever Mormon that has pathetically little control over my emotions. By day, I sell priestcrafts (“Have you heard of the new John Bytheway fireside on DVD?” It’s 20% off right now) to old women, who, in fact, think I’m quite endearing and buy four of said DVD. I’m going to pretend that the inverse of the previous statement isn’t necessary because I don’t think it’s any of your business what I do by night. I’ve been described as “adorable, yet offensive,” (OriginalMohomie, 2007) and “Immature.” (Master FOB, numerous occasions) I am still in love with Natalie Portman, hooded-sweatshirts, and quoting movies. And just like my last “about me”, this one is going to peter out at the end. Just … like … now.

You must still be in Happy Valley... I don't think the rest of Utah is that way, at least the Utah I know. I'm surrounded by young men who have not gone (for one reason or another) and most attitudes toward them center around... "I want him to be happy".
But you're right... unfortunately, even then, the prevailing thought remains... "I wonder why he's not gone?" The insensitivity, even with good intentions, stings.
Stay tough and strong! Keep remembering what matters most for you and what is happening inside you. You can't control others insensitivities.
I'm sorry you have to endure this. But you're bigger and better than to be bogged down by what others may say!
-L-!!! You have a voice!!!! What happened, Mr. Beta?
ATP: When I come with my stick, we'll go get the fast food lady...then you WILL have a parole officer...so will I...I'm coming to get you on Thursday...be afraid...be very afraid...
ATP: I just read your t-shirt comment on -L-'s bookclub entry... hilarious!! (Darrin is still laughing--he says he'd keep one of those in HIS closet, and he's not even remotely close to gay...wait, he's married to me so that last part isn't true, sorry)
I want the shirt, too, Samantha. ATP said I can't have one. :-(
SBP: If I get a t-shirt I bet I can keep it in any closet I want to. Maybe we can work out some sort of rotation system...don't tell ATP, okay?
Ok, it'll be our secret.
fo realz ATP, fo realz. I get this from the bank lady.
