About five hours in to my drive a gasket blew on my car causing me an unexpected detour to my closest dealership. I pulled in to the bay obviously annoyed and was met by a pleasant service advisor names JC. As I explained my issue and frustration, he smiled. Normally that would have made me more irate but, somehow, his smile did the opposite. He talked wit...
All: I woke up with what I'm hoping is a 24 hour bug and I feel like I've been run over by a truck. I started feeling bad on the flight in last night and it just kept getting worse through the night. I'll still be online, but will be working from the hotel today. Text me if you need me, otherwise I hope I'll see you in the office tomorrow. Have a great day...
"Wouldn't you really rather have a Buick?" The quote was from a commercial jingle. I was watching a YouTube video of old car commercials from the 1950s and '60s, and that line was sung by a woman hawking Buicks. Those were the days when American cars ruled the roads and foreign cars, like Toyotas and Datsuns, were considered junk. The only foreign car worth...
This is a true account of my first gay experience last year. I was 34 years old at the time, I am happily married with a great sex life. Have always been a masculine guy 6' tall, 180 lbs with a shaved head, blue eyes, blonde beard, and in good shape that can honestly say had never once been interested or even curious about being with guys. As a consultant,...
Every year since I was a kid, my Mom packed me two weeks worth of clean underwear and sent me down south to spend the summer with my cousin, Neil McCallahan. He lived in a bright yellow trailer elevated by four cinder blocks, with a trashbag stretched taut behind a broken window and a chipped bird bath on the front lawn. My own place back in the city was ten...
Carl called me the next day. We had one of those old friend talks that was somehow more. He told me about his family, wife and 3 daughters, in Colorado. I told him about the different women I'd dated, confessing that he was the only guy I'd ever been with, or person I ever wanted to please so much. He told me that he had been with one other guy from my class...
The house looked beautiful in the pictures...a gorgeous suburban home with a driveway and a big private back yard. The rent was reasonable and week to week, and express buses to the city were right around the corner. It seemed like the perfect place to stay while I looked for an apartment of my own in New York City, where I was about to start a new job. The...
Disclaimer: 100% Work of ficton ________________ Late Night at the office Part 1 'Im never gonna get to the gym tonight at this rate,' I grumbled to myself as I poured over the latest finance reports, my eyes beginning to blur from staring at the screen for so long. I sat back in my chair and stretched, the bottom of my polo riding up, revealing a small s...
The night playing Halo had been cool. But I'd almost missed class the next day because we played until close to dawn. Jamie had told me more about the gay-straight alliance on campus, and I'd decided to go. Wrapped in my thoughts I heard. "Hey! Nathan!" I stopped to see Jamie and Eli trotting toward me. As they approached, I smiled and gave them a little...
Hi everyone! A Shot into Darkness is giving me trouble so I decided to lay that to rest for the time being and write something different. Everyone is over the age of 18. Do not practice unprotected sex- it kills. I hope everyone enjoys! Sage: "I need you to be my drummer." Said my best friend, Alec, as we were walking to our dorms. I rolled my eyes. Al...
