Hiiiii everybody!
I haven't been on LJ in months but all it took was ![[info]](http://l-stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif) angeliccale87 and elvensorceress being so kind and sending me Christmas gifts through LJ. Thanks ladies! You still me in the world to me. Been busy with work, friends, and my very loving boyfriend but you all still cross my mind daily. I miss the wonderful times we've shared here, especially the Cake days that brought you all to me.
Oh and did Chris Rich really answer a question on Twitter saying his favorite sexual position is reverse cowgirl? Ooh the ideas in my head! Lol.
I miss you all dearly and hope you have a wonderful holiday season. Pop in and let me know how you're doing or send me an e-mail and I'll add you to my Facebook. Love all of you! |

It's funny because I was just going through all of our old e-mails this morning. Ah, the "Cake days" were something else with you, I tell ya. Still have all of the pics you sent me along with your stories. I hope all is well, hope your birthday is fantastic, and the next year is even better than this past one. I know somewhere you're smiling thinking about Jason Bourne and all of his greatness, lol. Miss you much dear!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY jlh !!!
What would my world be without you? You provoke so much thought, excitement, emotion, reasoning for me that I could not imagine my days going by without a piece of you in them. And my respect for all things Rymon? Strictly from you. No one else has given me that kind of pleasure in a fandom nor interest in something I'd never usually pay attention to. I'm grateful for every word of advice you've given me and every paragraph of a story that you've written that has made me want to evolve, improve, and bow down to greatness. May our love for AU's, good reality programming, and the rare gems of the 80s continue for many more years. Enjoy your day! |

A/N(s): Thought I'd get some writing out of my system by filling some requests on the Idol Porn Meme. How could I write stories and not write at least one Cake request? I wasn't quite sure what the request was asking for (i.e. collar, twitter) but I'm going to wing it. This is not beta'd so please read with caution. Prompt - twitter, collar, tattoo kink (touching / kissing / licking tattoos, etc.)

I'm baaaaaaack!!!
Well I guess you can't really say that as I'm not back in the form I want to be but I did manage to finish two stories this weekend. Yay! After my last story not going as planned and months of being unable to even complete an opening for a story, I got two done in almost one sitting. I haven't gotten around to a Kradam story yet, unfortunately but hopefully I can sit down and write a little smutty something soon (though I see plenty of you have that covered). But I filled some requests for that Idol Porn Meme from months ago.
Please forgive the spamming now as I'm probably going to post in different places and also in my journal.
We're off to see the Wizard...

STOP THE PRESSES!!!!
We must all take a time out to celebrate the birthdays of ruby_fruit and alowishus812 !!! These two are wonderful, beautifully creative, devilishly funny, and unreasonably cool people.
Amy - Thank you for all of the Cake smut in the past, the Kradam smut in the future, the inspiration to become a much better writer, and for helping me along my path to something wonderful: Ianto Jones and Torchwood. Here's to hoping we have many more memories to come.
Stephanie - Awww, there's too much to say. But thank you for what you brought to my life with Cake, for your brilliant baseball fics, for always being so supportive, for sacrificing your time to put together the 80s soundtrack, and for just being you.
Ladies, rock out or don't rock at all!

I don't know what makes me want to cry more - the loss of a legend in John Hughes or the fact that almost everyone I told at work last night about this tragedy had no idea who John Hughes was. Are you kidding me?! I feel so out of place sometimes with my supposed culture or the generation in which I am surrounded. Hughes defined so much of my childhood and so many of my happiest moments then and now. My 80s babies - let us cling together.
And, fuck, I want to write. I want to really bad. Why won't my brain work? I almost cried the other day because I wanted to get something started so bad but it just wouldn't come.
On a happier note:
I haven't seen this posted on my friends' list so I decided to give the world something to smile about. Come on, it's rather cute, right? And my Torchwood obsession? It's crazy right now. Finished Series 1, almost done with Series 2 and freakin' terrified to by Children Of Earth.

So this weekend was really wonderful... probably the best time I've had in quite awhile. One of my best friends had his birthday party and it's always the one yearly event that I look forward to. It's always a ton of fun, great music to dance to, a mini reunion with old classmates and friends, and I drink the night away. This year was no different! I love how when people post pictures of me on Facebook, it's always "Jesse... the bartender" because, for some reason, I'm always the one at the party trying to make drinks and jello shots, keep a secret stash of alcohol, and get everyone else drunk. LOL. What can I say? If you're thirsty, I know how to make a great drink.
Then Sunday was a true reunion of friends as I got together with my circle of friends I've had since senior year. When we get together it's like something out of Friends. It was just a really good time eating, drinking, laughing, and truly being comfortable in our own skins as adults. We're still the same yet we don't have petty fights, hold grudges or let the past be anything other than what it is... the past.
So I'm still wholeheartedly in my whole Cake fandom (and I wish I could get struck by some inspiration bug so I could write something), but I've been truly digging some other fandoms:
* Thanks to livehead16 I'm totally addicted to Jon-G fics. She's the only one who writes them but I always look forward to reading them. I don't do fandoms so I think the reason I'm truly on this one is because I adore the way she writes. It's so real, so manly, so indescriable in the way she draws me in.
* Thanks to ruby_fruit and dizzydame I'm such a Torchwood junkie now... well more like a Janto junkie. Yes, I am devestated by the loss of Ianto and have refused to way Children Of Earth Day Four yet just because I can't bare the ending but I've been searching for good ficcage and watching vids of YouTube. I'm actually considering dedicating a paycheck to buying the first three series so I can truly catch up and get into it. Anyone who watches Torchwood - should I buy season 1 or 2 first? I want to be fully enthralled in it but at the same time, I want to get to the exciting stuff first.
* Haven't totally gotten on the Kradam thing but I'm thinking about writing some Kradam, some Kratt to go along with some Cake. Got some ideas in my head, some meme's I read some places that might be cool to fill. Anyone have any advice on getting on another Idol fandom because I've always been totally engrossed in Cake and it's hard to write anything but that. To me, they were it... the bee's knees, the OTP and always will because of the chemistry. Help maybe?
* Still reading some Shelter fics here and there. In fact, I'm probably going to watch the movie before I hit the way.
I leave you with me, decked out for the party...

Dear honestys_easy ,
Can't Hardly Wait was on TV this morning. Can you spell awesome? It's crazy how you can forget how much you love a movie until you sit back and watch it. Can you believe how many "teen" stars are in that one movie? They crossed over into so many other teen shows or movies during that time and now look at them... they're starring in Twilight, hosting WWE Monday Night Raw and ruling the world with Robot Chicken, winning awards for starring in My Name Is Earl, working on a hit CBS show, one half of the dynamic duo on Scrubs, starring in major roles on Showtime. How far they've come.
Sincerely,
Teen Comedy Guy For Life

Can you believe it? It's a day to top all days... HAPPY BIRTHDAY dreamerren !!!!! There should be no reason not to celebrate this amazing occasion because it is the day this world was blessed with a kindhearted, all-knowing, shimmering lit, emotional safety-net, ever-growing, beautiful woman that has been an outstanding addition to my life for a couple of years now.
We've come a long way baby! All the way from May of 2007 when two boys brought me into your crazy little world until now... where two other boys keep you fascinated and keep me riding this belly-flipping rollercoaster with you. I would have never walked through any revolving doors, written any lists, figured out why they call it 'date night,' tiptoed any edges, remembered that everything is due back before midnight or figured out pieces of myself all along this road called life without your guidance. Thank you for continuing to strive to be everything this world is not and thank God we have this day in particular to celebrate your life, your experiences, your joys, and your existence. Love ya.
Now go out and have a moment!

Hey LJ. I've been away and everything for a reason. Hopefully soon I'll post my thoughts and everything so I can explain why to my friends but, for now, I'm feeling a bit nostalgic about my boys. Surfing the ol' YouTube and found some stuff to enjoy:
Okay this is too cute. It's so cool to see the Idols out of the element, just being themselves. The little boy was so precious and who doesn't love seeing Chris with kids? Come on, say you don't.
Gotta love this song, gotta love Richie doing Mraz. Just needed something to put a smile on my face, hopefully yours.
Just for old time's sake...
Oh, and the wonderful alowishus812 was forced replied to a prompt I gave her about Cake in her meme. Man, I can't imagine how it must feel to go back to a fandom you haven't written in for quite some time but I'm grateful she did take the time to do it!
Ladies and gents, if you don't hear from me until after the holiday, may you be safe, warm, happy, gleefully loving life, and everything that you've always been... yourselves! HAPPY 4th!!!

My father actually woke me up to tell me that Michael Jackson has passed and I was too sleepy to believe him but now I'm just... I don't know. I am so shocked that the emotions aren't even seeping in. His music was such a major force in my childhood and I... I don't even know how to feel. I send all my prayers out to his family.
And this happens when just this morning I arrive home to find out the painful loss of Farrah.

Dear f-list,
What's a good website I can join and buy prints or HQ pictures of my favorite Idols celebs? Getty and WireImage are rather particular about who joins (or maybe with Wire it's because I have a Hotmail e-mail address) and some sites are just plain BS. I'm looking for a site that is of the same quality of a Wire or Getty to maybe obtain some pics and I don't mind purchasing them. Any help would be greatly appreciated (and possibly repaid with fic?)
Thanks! |

Hello world! I've missed you! Let's go with the quick hits, shall we?
* I love intelligent people with great things to say. I love even more when intelligent people are great writers. I am amazed by jlh . Please check out her latest stuff, including her follow-up to the undeniably talented lillijulianne and her McCake series. Oh, I'm writing, just need to find time to comment.
* Just been busy with work a lot now a days. Training to learn other jobs so that I can be available enough for new things. I think the problem with me and any job is that once I start to master a position or get it to the point where I worry about where I can go with it next, I start to falter. Never been the kind of guy who likes to be pigeonholed into one spot in life so hopefully I can move onto other things, challenge myself again. But the vote of confidence from the Powers That Be at work has been very encouraging. Their compliments on my hard work and effort even when it's greater than those above me has been smile-enducing.
* CONGRATS loverave !!! Graduations are always great, but especially escaping that small bubble that is high school. The world awaits you.
* birdisland - keep your head up. No one is going to like you all the time and no one is going to support everything that's on your mind but no one can be you and that's a feeling greater than any comment someone could provide.
* Secretly, I think I'm obsessed with Twitter. Well, at least I'm obsessed with two boys on there. We all already know I still have some kind of wicked addiction to still writing Cake (you don't say, right?) but these two make it near impossible for me not to want to write more. There will never be another, I swear it.
* honestys_easy - where have we been? Missing each other like this just seems wrong. We need to find that wavelength we coasted together and hop back on because I miss you bb.
* Has anyone seen Angels & Demons yet? I always try to catch most of the summer blockbusters that appeal to me and I did find The Da Vinci Code to be very interesting but haven't heard much about Angels & Demons. I have seen Terminator: Salvation, X-Men Origins: Wolverine, and Star Trek. Didn't enjoy Wolverine as much as I would've liked but the other two were fantastic. Waiting on Transformers: Revenge Of the Fallen and G.I. Joe: Rise Of the Cobra because I'm a big 80s child but what summer movies are you all waiting on?
* You know what I like? Being the guy that most girls love to talk to or hang with, not just because I like boys too but because I'm respectable and kind. But what I'm really liking is how straight guys are starting to see that I'm a very cool person too. I struggled with that a lot years ago because I'm the kind of guy who likes to hang with guys too because, no offense ladies, I just like the chillness of it sometimes. And I enjoy the things they do as well. But I used to struggle to show straight men I was just a cool guy and not the guy who wanted them or was going to act all "sugar, honey, girlfriend!" on them, especially within my own African American community. I am grateful that guys are now seeing that I'm just a guy who happens to lean toward relationships with guys of my same sexuality, not just every guy that walks by. It's a true confidence booster.
* HAPPY belated BIRTHDAY isa_gallagher - we might not talk often like we used to but I still think of you, always.
* Hi dreamerren - had any interesting experiences with your boys lately? *smile*
* heatherlovesca - I read every post bb. Don't you worry. I love hearing about the boys, of course, but I also love hearing about your life too. Guess I'll have to stalk you on Twitter to find out, eh? LOL. You've been a great help with my stories and what not so I bow down to your coolness.
* I want a new touch-screen phone but I realized I don't talk or text on my phone at all, lol. It's like what's the point? But I WANT IT! And I want new shoes too, but I don't go to enough events to show them off. I think I just like shopping.
* raspsun and alowishus812 in the same place??? My mind could explode with the greatness. Can I get a collabo you two? I think I'd take anything from you two, seriously.
* Yes, I am still watching Shelter whenever I feel the need. Seriously, best gay movie in forever. I even think about writing fics though I'm not sure what part of the movie plot I'd work with. Any other movie recs, I'll take them though I've seen quite a few...
* ruby_fruit - I know the feeling when you write in a fandom but would kill for other greats to write in so you can enjoy their porn works. I'm sure there's some great Kradam stories out there, hiding. But for selfish reasons, I think we are all glad we have yours to enjoy!
* HAPPY BIRTHDAY raspsun !!! What would my world be without you? Hell, what would Ben's life be without you? I'll tell you this - he'd be short a Super Bowel ring! LOL. Continue to be you - sports addict, brilliant writer, true trooper in life, and someone I can depend on to make me smile for being unique and yourself, always. Love ya!

Grey's Anatomy - this is not right. Crying that hard at 9 in the morning is just too much for me. And I don't know what I'll do for a whole summer without you. Without question my favorite season of that show has been season two but this season has by far trumped that one. I think it's always wonderful when a series gets its footing back and just sails on through like nothing ever happened. I wish Heroes would get a kick in the ass like that.
So this week has sort of been a week of redemption on my reality television programs. Most of the shows I try to catch have had some truly disappointing eliminations in the past few weeks (Dancing With the Stars - Lil' Kim, American Idol - Allison and Matt, Make Me a Supermodel - Amanda, Kerryn) but this week I have gotten my revenge because some truly undeserving people finally went home (DWTS - Ty, Idol - DANNY!!!, MMS - Jordan). Oh how the mighty have fallen; though I must say I was literally shocked to find out that Danny went home because it was truly an unexpected moment as I never get to see the villain lose until the final show.
I've been re-living my childhood as of late through DVD's. I've been purchasing movies that I can sort of remember as a child and just living in the luxury of watching them again and feeling all tingly because those were happier times. In recent months I bought Mannequin, Noises Off!, Spaceballs, The Great Muppet Caper, Weekend At Bernie's and just this past week I bought Rainbow Brite and the Star Stealer (bring a shining light to every day...) and Supergirl (it's still awesome to me, thanks). You should see the smile on my face while watching them. I plan on getting some Duck Tales, Thundercats, maybe Sixteen Candles and St. Elmo's Fire. Life is awesome!
I also bought a movie that I'd wanted to see for awhile thanks to a review I read in Entertainment Weekly and have actually heard about but could never find it for rent - Shelter. Oh My God. This movie is a must-see. I mean like seriously. I've seen all the cliche-driven gay movies, romantic stories, drama-filled weep-fests but, thankfully, this one breaks the rules. There's no suicidal moments, no overly feminine guy running around with his slutty friends and bad choices in relationships. And the guys are real guys which is nice because I get tired of the massively inaccurate media take on men, especially men who love other men. It's gross because not everyone is a Mary Sue, emotional rollercoaster riding, wrist flicking, boy-crazed little girl. This movie shows that. It's just a realistic, overall good movie. I highly reccommend it to those who don't want the usual stuff... just the grade-A goodness.

I'm in need of some "feel good" moments here so, sorry f-list, I'm going to bombard you with some stuff so we can all feel good. I think when you think about certain parts of your past, especially when you hear certain songs, you can't help but smile.
So for this post I want to take you back to the early '90s when you were younger and things were less complicated, you knew less, you probably cared less, you were still finding stuff out about yourself, some of you might've even still been in your PJ's running around the house pretending to be a Mighty Morphing Power Ranger (lol) but it just felt good to be where you were. Let's go back some years and smile together, 'kay?
From '94, who couldn't love or remember this Cranberries' song? For some reason I remember laying on my friend's bed drawing comics, not even caring that we had school work due on Monday.
( This little kid can't stand to see you black and blue )
I know there's a million more songs I could've put in there but this post was already getting long and I had to go with just a select few (but trust me I could've gone on being that I made like 6 CD's worth of 90s songs for myself... anyone remember "Mr Vain" or "Walking On Broken Glass"). So what are some of your favorites from the 90s? What songs take you back and what do they make you think about?
