Twenty-One Years of LIFE to its Fullest

I make use of the phrase: You are working my last t-cell more times then I care to share.

Do not be shocked or alarmed

It is just a fact of this man’s life.

The summer/fall of 1991, I was very run-down & fatigued.

Terry, my boyfriend, said I needed to see someone about this.

At his urging I went to a doctor.

I took a battery of tests for chronic fatigue, Epstein’s Bar Virus, Hepatitis A – B & C, mono, etc.

ALL tests came back negative.

So what was wrong w/ me? (Please keep your comments to yourselves)

Terry, who was HIV positive, was certain I was sero-converting. 
I told him he was crazy, I had safe sex. Tho in all honesty: not always. Terry insisted I take a HIV test ˆ I said: No!

What would that prove? If I was HIV positive; I did not even want to think about such a thing.

We were living in Coconut Grove Florida @ this time & I was not in the mood to party as it was nearly Thanksgiving: White Party Weekend in Miami.

The Gay Agenda – What the Hell is That?

Ok: yada yada yada time:

I have not slept a straight 8 hours on a given night for a few months. The best I am able to manage is 3-4 hours @ a shot I get up, head you know where Then, on my way back to bed I look @ cell phone for messages I return them: thus making people think I am cracking on (again) Sobriety ~ Live it ~ Love it Am on my 8th year w/ just a few missteps (it happens) Mind you, I am not completely 12-step sober I have my xanax & body enhancing supplements (honesty is the best policy) At the end of the day we have to answer to ourselves

FYI If you ever share a meal w/ me, I do not care if you drink. But splitting the bill, where others drank in excess, does not make me happy. When all I had was the roast beef special ~ I am not tossing $90 into the kitty to support your booze habits I will get my own separate check, no hard feelings It took a few years for that light bulb to turn itself on in my head ~ it is now More >
