Oh no he didnt!... or did he?

He did. Todd took pictures that were taken of us at a club and totally turned them into flair on facebook. I'm not really certain how I feel about it, though he did pick a cute one...
Regardless he's still a great guy. He's moving today, or at least starting to. Not tons closer to me, but it is three freeway exits closer than before, so thats nice. Its also way nice cuz now he'll be able to walk to work instead of taking the bus.
The only problem? He'll end up babysitting for people who want to experiment. This I'm not a fan of. I trust him to stay away from the crap himself, but I still dont want him to have to put up with it. Maybe I'm over protective, but he's the first guy in a long time that has made me feel good about myself. So, I'm probably just selfish, but I think a close relationship with another human being is an entitlement, so long as your not some kind of monster. I dont kill people, dont hurt them, I do occasionally scare them witless when I come up behind them but who doesnt?
Also, I've decided that for the time being at least, I need to get out of the coaching business. He and I and a bunch of gay friends he knows went to the mall Friday night. The only problem there was that we were at the Sandy mall, literally down the streeet from where I work, and he got up the nerve to try and hold my hand. (He's not big on the pda, hasn't wanted to deal with homophobic stuff) I told him we couldn't which was depressing for both of us. I was afraid that a parent or one of my kids might see, and then proceed to raise hell about the fact that I am gay and coaching their kids. I was seriously bummed out. He was too, and very understandably I think. So, I need to get out of the coaching business. Which again, means that I need a new job. Preferably one where I answer questions, solve problems, and dont have to handle other peoples money. I'll take responsibility for keeping you alive, but not your money.

(Enter some snappy relevant title here)

Well, its been a while, I suppose its time for an update.
Family:
Cousins came up from places without furnaces in their homes to celebrate St. Patricks day. It was cool. Really super movie. Interesting revelations. Most suprisingly: support. Cousins have a disturbing tendency to suprise me. However, I dont mind saying that I actually have someone in my family to talk to now. Its kinda weird though, not something I had really ever even considered a possiblity, but I'm certainly not complaining.
Todd:
Well, what is there to say really? He hijacked my Ipod last time I was over, and filled it with some really random music. A lot of its a bit heavier than I like it though I wont complain. We watched Mama Mia, another exellent movie.
One problem, he got a belly button piercing on St. Patricks day. I'm not sure how I feel about the whole thing. I obviously havent seen it yet, but I'm not really a fan of the body piercing thing. The only piercing I think I'd ever really be ok with would probably be an ear piercing. Just the one. But I'm not sure what to do about the whole thing. He already asked me if I'd rather he just take it out and let it regrow, which yeah I would prefer; but he already did it. Spent the money. Would it really be fair of me to tell him to do that? Its cute that he's willing and all, but would it be right of me? Advice?

Revalations

First of all, he was previously dubbed 'ryan' shall now be 'Tod'. Turns out that Ryan is the name of his ex, they were getting back together, but Ryan died two months ago. Thus we change his alias in my blog to Tod.

Game night!

Well, I finally got up the courage to call Ryan on sunday. Excellent timing if I do say so myself. Turns out he and some friends were having a game night, and I had been invited by all of them that had already met me. Or at least the three that remember meeting me. Turns out the girl who 'set us up' had been more messed up than I'd thought and doesnt remember most of the night.
We didn't really play that many games, but then I was late (I got lost, suprise suprise) however I did get a tour of some of the most haunted places in American Fork though. Yeah I was unimpressed. The pool ghosts do a better job.
Oh! Another important note: he doesnt smoke. Or do drugs. This means that I can in fact date him. He was completely sober and the only change I could detect in him was that he didnt grab my butt once. Not that I mind having my butt grabbed by a cute guy everyonce in a while, but I take it as a sign that A: he really is a very nice guy, and B: that he wasn't all that tipsy to begin with.
Anyway, I got some serious cuddle time and no one even once commented on how quiet I was being. It doesnt get much better than that!
