oh and my sis is totally blowing my cover as of late, she's going into fierce discussions back home. i think one of our friends had a bit of a heureka moment, at least she suspects he did....i dunno if that's a good or a bad thing....we'll see...

Do any of your siblings have kids? My mum often starts 'worrying' that I might be *** (never understood why she thinks this, as I have a girlfriend and make no effort to disguise my staring at women in the street). Anyway, my response to her worry is to say that the only reason she has to be interested in the sexuality of her adult son is whether she gets any grandchildren out of it - its true, parents all want to be grandparents... all the same benefits as parenthood with few of the downfalls - and as my brother already has a daughter and my sister is married, what would it matter if I were ***/sterile/ugly as hell and therefore less likely to become a father?
If you've got siblings who are going to have kids someday, then this can be a kind of argument. Having said that, my family really aren't religious, old-fashioned or anything like that, so they don't have any really strong moral issues with different sexualities, just 'worries' about things that they haven't experienced before.
Sorry to ramble here. Adidass, you seem to be keeping us up to date with how your coming out process has gone. Please keep the reports coming. Its quite useful to me because one of my housemates is *** (well, two actually, but the other is practically invisible), his sexuality is obvious to almost everybody he meets, but he is yet to come out to his family or any of his friends at home (Hong Kong). I probably wouldn't care, but he CONTINUALLY goes on about it to me. Really non-stop. I'd like to be helpful, both because I'm a helpful kind of guy and also I figure if I do he'll eventually start to talk about something else for once.
So please keep the updates coming. It'll help me when he starts asking me for advice and suggestions about what he should do. Cheers.

MY DAY:
Woke up late after going to 'Snobs' last night (rock club) after playing our first gig yesterday evening. The gig went well... we played pretty mediocre but still went down a storm. We played second of three bands and everybody left at the end of the first song by the third band! I felt pretty bad for them.
I've been a bit hungover most of the day, but I'm about to do a PICRYLSULFONIC ACID ASSAY TO TEST FOR THE PRESENCE AND SURFACE DENSITY OF AMINE GROUPS ON THE SURFACE OF A PVA BEAD. So, as you can see, the day still holds plenty of fun and laughs for me to look forward to.
