    Happy Gay Month though!
    I'm excited I get to do some gay stuff with my boyfriend this year during pride month lol.
     
    For me, I kinda wished it wasn't called "pride", I think often see pride as a self centered and egotistical thing but that's not to say you shouldn't be happy with who you are/what you are and feel comfortable in what ever labels you want to associate yourself with but frankly I sorta think it's putting yourself in a box you don't necessarily need to place yourself in.
    I understand wanting to be proud of overcoming adversity when you're not in a very supportive environment but I think there's a couple different types of pride there's a goal or achievement type of pride and there's an egotistical type of pride... a quote I found that's being attributed to a John C. Maxwell suits this well
    "There are two kinds of pride, both good and bad. 'Good pride' represents our dignity and self-respect. 'Bad pride' is the deadly sin of superiority that reeks of conceit and arrogance."

    Yeah I'm gay but guess what? I don't wear it on my sleeve, I'm content with my attraction to the same sex. I enjoy the relations I have with my same-sex significant other but at least for me I'm very nonchalant about it and try and be vague about it when I talk about it because it's not a big deal to me that it needs to be known that the person I'm with happens to be the same sex as me, the more important thing is that Im with someone and they make me happy. The fact they're also a guy isn't that big of a deal, nor should it be. I can understand to some it's a big deal but again it shouldn't be.
    Like if you're a guy and you got a girlfriend great!
    If you're a chick and got a boyfriend great!
    If you're a guy and got a boyfriend? Great!
    If you're a chick and got a girlfriend? Great!
     
    you're with someone, you love them, they love you and hopefully both of yall are happy and that's all that matters.
    Love matters more than what chromosomes they got lol

    Im aware, I've worked in shipping companies and work in a warehouse that ocassionally sends out products with Lithium Ion batteries.
    But it was just a jest attempt at being facetious

    are capacitors batteries? No technically not.
    Won't stop me from not wanting to think of them as a type of battery though.

    Tried again for my full license and I was SOOOOO close. Sadly a One-Way to a Two-Way on the test course confused me and lead me to an automatic failure. Aside from that the examiner essentially said I did well otherwise.

    I went to an exam station with their own track for testing.

    Welp my boyfriend bought a laptop recently and I gave mine to my aunt a couple months so I needed something to replace it.
    I finally have its replacement on order!


    Since I'm selling my iPad very shortly and I've conceded the repair on my macbook pro so I will be parting that out and selling it very shortly I needed something!

    I cleaned the interior of what'll end up being my car earlier today (minus shampooing things as we don't have the shtuff for that just yet as well as windows because I always streak them), and the damn instrument cluster plastic is so damn clean you can't even see it, minus a liiiiiitle dust still in the top left corner where I never got a good reach.

    a little over a month for me to move on out to Huntsville, a little nervous about making things financially work but I trust that I can do it. But it'll be so rewarding to finally be living in the same area as my boyfriend to finally have something more tangible and in person.
     
    But the bright side is, we will finally be in the same state and the same city!

    If GM themselves doesn't release a dealer add-on backlight kit for that front lettering they'll be as dumb as they look. That would look pretty sick backlit at night.

    I'm used to larger mirrors and I don't want to give that up. I feel like the visibility with the Silverado mirrors could be way better.
