I think I have a middle eastern thing going on right now.........

Hi there,

Um, I guess I always have a middle eastern thing going on but I'm talking about meeting people from the middle east. They are beautiful and gorgeous, confident, caring, smart, and wise! I have told you before that I am Persian. If you didn't read it in the postings of my blog, maybe you read it in the title of my blog. I was born in Iran and moved here with my family prior to the revolution. Anyways, I haven't had very many middle eastern friends in my lifetime. I'm not sure why since I'm from the middle east but lately I have met many and they are totally awesome. OK, so maybe there are a few funky ones but for the most part they have been great. Where have you all been my whole life? Hello! I have always been here!

When I was growing up here in America-California, I just wanted to be like all of my blond haired blue eyed friends. I had dreams of waking up and not looking the way i do. I wanted to change my hair color, eye color, my nose. Heck, I wanted a new family with a mother that cooked things like fried chicken and meatloaf. I even wanted to change my name. I look back and see that I didn't know any better. I love just the way I was made. I have a pretty darn good time with myself just like this. I wish I could go back in time and tell my little self that everything was going to be OK and that one day I would love and very much appreciate the way I was made. Oh well, at least I can post what I feel and hope that someone out there that is reading this will have a change of heart on how they perceive themselves and love themselves more!

I spent sometime this afternoon with Brett at PCC, our school Electrician today and got some ideas on making my Tron costume. Yes, you heard right, my Tron costume. We hooked me up to LED lights and EL Wire. It was AWESOME! You should have been there. We will be working on it again a little tomorrow. I did get pictures from today but I think I will get better ones tomorrow and I can post them. I did have to take a break at school at some point. I didn't get home until 8:30pm this evening! Whew! I am exhausted! And I have to be up at 5.....You better be ready Chefhats! I'm coming for you.

UPDATE on PIC-JACKER SAGA: I still haven't seen the "Georgia", however apparently she contacted Smokey this afternoon as I was at school and let him know that she thinks the Canine companion working eagerly with the Pic-Jacker may be from California! What the! What, the Jacker couldn't find a local to help him out! I call that a SISSY! Hello Pic-Jacker! Oregonians are the ones in need of JOBS, DUMBASS! DUH!

Ciao for now!
