I feel bad about how I get about sex sometimes. I know that it’s not helping the situation a lot, but it’s very important and very emotional to me, so when I realize I’ve missed an opportunity, or an opportunity isn’t going to be available to me for an extended period of time, I get upset, or sad, or depressed because I want to see improvement, I do see improvement, I see change, I get hopeful. At the same time I am so paranoid of backsliding. We’ve had months where things were awesome, times when we were scared that things were going to get worse, so almost out of desperation, things got better, but in time they have always come back to the same status quo, and that’s why it effects me so much I think. I feel so bad about it, but at the same time, I can’t seem to lose the paranoia. Maybe it’s because it’s happened so many times, we’ll get on a good streak and then a month later I’ll realize it’s as if nothing ever changed.

Brandon and his girlfriend came over last night and bought us pizza. He’s the best nephew I’ve ever had. We watched Léon and generally just hung out. I couldn’t believe he hadn’t seen it before. I mean, come on! It’s Léon! Anyway, it was a good time, I really enjoy his company and he seems to really enjoy hanging out with us and watching movies.
When did Dan Cortese become Dan “Corteezee?”

As it says on his bio on IMDB, “His surname is pronounced Cor-tez.” So why is it now that all the commercials for his new show pronounce it “Cor-TEE-zee?” Did he just wake up one day and decide to change it? Or maybe he was visiting his Grandfather, who came to this country as a boy, and was told “You dumb shit! You’re name is Corteezee! What do you want people to think, that we’re Mexicans?” Which of course would have been preceded by a sharp smack to the head. Whatever happened, he’s apparently changed it, either that or the announcer is a dumbass.
In fact, I’d like to change the pronunciation of my last name at will, too. From now on my last name will be spelled “Close” but it will be pronounced “Throatwarberler-Mangrove!”
