National Coming Out Day

I recently discovered (read: In the last half an hour) that today, or rather yesterday, was National Coming Out Day. So I thought I'd say something I've been debating about wether I should say or not, even if I'm an hour or so late. I have a crush, or think I have a crush, on a girl. Yes, me, daughter of a priest living in an average middle-class family in suburban America. No names shall be mentioned because 1) I'm not quite sure if I have a crush on her or if I'm imagining it, and 2) I know she has the address to this blog, although I don't know if she reads it (seeing as my blog address is in my AIM profile, a heck of a lot of people have it). Any of my friends that have a problem with that, screw you. And I mean that in the nicest way possible ^^ Okay. Now that that is off my shoulders, on to other things. Today was a very, very good day. I got lots of sleep, then went to a lecture by a Latina writer from the US-Mexican borderlands (She actually has lots of relatives down in you neck of the woods), which was very interesting. Then this afternoon, we had a track meet, even though we didn't have any school. And I am very, very proud of myself. I placed fourth out of nine girls, our team won, getting first, third, fourth, and fifth, and I got the best time for myself on our course so far. So I'm very very happy about that. My brother and I also watched The Faculty on TV, and even though its supposed to be a horror movie, we kept laughing. Ben claims its based on a true story, because he as an evil creepy Science teacher, and I kept laughing at Elijah Wood, as I kept picturing him as Frodo in the movie, especially in the scene where he gets high, and starts giggling, and sounds like a little girl. Then we watched Star Trek: TNG for a while, and now I'm here, blogging, and working on a layout for my blog archives.
