Song In My Mind ~ Working in a Coal Mine

Boy did I pick a week to start a new job... the days are long due to the Turkey Day thing coming up. But I'm tackling my office. Learning something all the time...and feeling comfortable... and not tearing up with the things I have had to stop doing.

I stopped by the apartment today.. I'm getting excited about the new place.. just still wish I didn't have to move all my shhhhhhhh.... tuff...... hehe....

Song in my mind ~ Good riddance (Time of Your Life) - Green Day

whew...

I did great threw Kapers without getting emotional.... till Sunday after Casey and I nailed our Duet. Bradford has alot of drawbacks... but I will miss it deeply never the less. The show was excellent. Got to get close to a few mates that are very talented.... too young and str8.... but talented. I find it amazing how I'm able to bridge friendships, and all that stuff, being a older gay dude... but in some way these people see the true person inside... and the gay thing doesn't matter. Esp when all know I'm so totally appropriate its boring... "But safe :)"

I will miss the folks in that show that I have shared the stage for the last 13 years to the last 13 days. And even though I said it was my "last show"... some have hinted to that fact I could make a guess appearance. hmmmmmm.............

Well tackling laundry tonight, to make the move easier. Tackling my desk tomorrow, and going out to dinner with my "dear lady friend".... So....

Wake me up with Christmas is over... hehe

song in my mind ~ Moving Right Along... - The Muppet Movie

I have have my first "Overnight Seminar" scheduled in VA.... so the job is speeding up.. but I got lost looking at my desk... hehe..

So things are going well....

Song in my Mind ~ Moving on up, To the Top - The Jefferson's Theme Song

Well I didn't get the "safety director" job. But, upper management at the bus lines decided they were going to implement a new "position" that they have been considering for a few years now. And they offered it to me!!!!! I'm now the "Regional Operations Manager". (subject to position name tweaking) I'm not going to bore ya with the details, but its a amazing opportunity for me. And I will have to move from Bradford to DuBois PA. That alone can be a very good thing.

Unfort this week had alot of downers.

Helping a friend deal with her nephew's suicide. He was a gay 12yo.... and the father totally did the wrong thing in regards to dealing with his son, and totally should be thrown in jail for the worse of abuse.

The LB's sister Attempted suicide... and again I keep F***ing trying to be there for him and he's completely... "gone".... My promotion would have been a great thing for him if we were a "couple".... (which will never happen) he would have gotten the geo (to crash pending his current driving history) and DuBois has a great place for a Nursing program. oh well... best of luck at wally world.

Junior at the Stable our only yearling (colt) what ever the term, broke his leg on Sunday and had to be put down.

And again... the friend in the first entry. She is just so amazing.... Her and another employee just was so supportive in me getting this job... I wish I wasn't gay. I love her... but unfort.. thats all I can do. I am gay. She's had it rough... I hope things just really improve alot for her... well off to bed.

Best,
J
