Trip to NYC – Jan 2010
I had decided I wanted to go up to NYC alone and see a show (I don’t travel well with other people) so that was planned for early this year and it ended up being this last weekend. I wasn’t sure what show to see and I wasn’t sure what else I wanted to do up there but was certain that I wanted to stay near Times Square. Jim, the boss, got me a hotel…

The 2009 WI Holiday
When I left WI for DC 11 some years ago I made it pretty clear to everyone how much I dislike winter and that I wouldn’t be home for Christmas. When Pa died last November I looked back over the last decade and saw all the time that I could have been there to see him and spend time with him and instead I stayed in DC. So this year I decided it was time…

My Birthday Wish
This year for my birthday, December 6, 2009, I’m trying to raise cash for the Midnight Mission a non-profit organization in LA that helps the homeless and has a 12 Step approach. If you’re planning to give me a gift this year I would certainly appreciate a small donation to this worthy charity. Their mission statement: To offer a bridge to self-sufficiency for homeless people through counseling, education, training and job placement. To make available…

Aloha and Mahalo AAC Inc
So for the company trip this year we headed off to Maui for 8 days of relaxation, fun and sun. Ana had mentioned Hawaii so I worked on Jim for a few months before he agreed, then I had to work on him to get him to agree to bring Vera. He did thank me right before we left – he knows how much work Vera does for us. I booked the whole trip Expedia…

Makua kane
Makua kane means Father Last year, around this time I heard that my Pa died. I had been scheduled to leave for Cancun on the company retreat the next day and ended up spending a week in Wisconsin instead. Pa probably thought it was funny. Since he passed I’ve changed my name to honor him his first name is my middle and I’ve taken his last name as my last. It was the least I…

Uphill Battles
I’m sad about Maine. Once again in the land of the free, people have gone to the polls to deny others the same rights that others take for granted. I say for granted because hetero couples get married all the time and then divorced – rinse lather repeat. Divorce rates in Maine are 13th (Source) in the nation. My biological mother was married 8 separate times. But if two guys or two girls want to…

The Number One Offender Is Also the Number One Reason I Can't Sleep
Resentment. Rethink, Re-feel. It’s the three “R”s and they are not a good thing. You’d think that after such a long time of knowing how these things affect my mood, sleep, day or night that I would be more wiling to use the tools that I’ve been taught. But NO. Last night I was up most of the night thinking about what “they did” and how I can “get even”. I’m not even mean enough…

Changes
So why move all my blogs to WordPress and rename my blog? Well mostly because Gmail would not allow me to assign a new Gmail account to my current blog on Blogger. But there are other reasons to.. I’ve been reading several blogs recently ON WordPress and it looked pretty spiffy. I like all the extra bells and whistles I decided on a domain name if you’re going to change your name and everything else…

Coming Out
For the past few days I’ve donated my status on Facebook for National Coming Out Day to say the following: “Jamez Ronald Prudlick is gay. There are 3 days until National Coming Out Day and I pledge to have heartfelt conversations for lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender equality.” I think providing resources to people that are interested in coming out of the closet is very important, I didn’t have knowledge of resources when I first…

I’m a homophobe?
I might be a homophobe, is that even possible? Well I guess it is. I was in Ft Lauderdale a week or so ago, hanging out with my friend Michael K and when I commented about something that he said he looked at me and said: “Oh, that’s right you’re a homophobe.” and I thought to myself, well yeah, I guess I am. It’s not that I hate gay people or what gay people do,…
