My liver screamed out for help and I grabbed another drink. and another

Yesterday I received a phone call inviting me to a few PARTAYS and so I put on my skivies and left the house.

Mom's words - don't drink too much
and - if someone offers you drugs, don't worry about who it is or what it is just take it. (jk)

My doctor demanded a while ago that I cease all alcohol consumption and medication. I did. Until tonight. And it was a good night. It felt so good to drink. It never felt so good. It didn't even taste bad. sigh. Except today I feel like shit. headache/hangover/wicked nausea - damn liver.

So we (Heather, Amber, Sam, and I) went to a total of 3 locals. house party and 2 bars.
sigh. i'm bored with this story.

artist looking for new and exciting friends. bah.

I already have exciting friends. and family. My mom thinks I'm hilarious.
Oh and my tap class - they are very exciting. I love them already. Sometimes it's hard to win ppl over - ie judy bullington my advisor, and I think that there are some pplsss in my tap class that aren't sold on my charming and artistic personality. For I got the stink eye. or what is it when it's just a squint not quite a stink eye? Well we'll call it the squint. I got the squints. hehehehe. not to be confused with squirts. that is gross.

I received another email from a man. again I think this is a mass email. here it goes - oh and he did send a picture.

Nice profile, I am a single black male, (yet open to all races) living in the Nashville area that considerd a workaholic by my friends but also someone who knows when its time to take off and enjoy life. Now that its summer, i try to take at least one weekend getaway each month. I just love dropping my top on my car and cruizing. I do like to camp, sail, hike, parks, oceans, cultural events and so much more.

What i am hoping to find, is a women that like me, has their life together but knows how to have fun. I am not a couch potato, but do enjoy watching a dvd, eating ice cream in bed and enjoying the quierter times. Yes, i am a cuddlier and a hopeless romantic, just not sappy about it.

I really enjoy beaches, lakes and outdoor fun. If you are the type that will go to the beach just to watch the waves, then i am probably not the person for you. I am enclosing my picture in the profile, so when you respond, please include one of you. Let's talk and see where things lead.



I didn't respond.

I think Gail was the only serious one.
Oh Gail. How are you doing?

Per my one follower's request

I'm a little mad at Gail for his fishing and dullness and such, so I will put up some convos/messages from the others. and I think I will repost my ad. I'm thinking this was a dead end. If I had no intention of making this a serious thing then why keep it up.

With that dilemma I have just decided to get serious. Despite my gut telling me to stop and my current friends telling me to stop.

Here is the first response that I received. I got it the night I posted. and I believe this guy was sending the same thing to a lot of ppl to get some action. ps some of the photos for m4f are disgusting and still haunt me ie man looking for a sugar daddy arrangement. I just threw up a little in my mouth. or dry heaved. whichever is a funnier image for you take it.

Hello.... Are you interested in a more mature, experienced man for your pleasure? I'm 46, divorced and live alone in a discreet Bellevue (Nashville) condo. I can host or come to you. I give full body, sensual, erotic massage, oral pleasure to completion and more. No Strings, No expectations and all limits will be respected. I'm VERY orally talented and well endowed. I'm 6'2" and weigh 190. Handsome, fit, 8" and thick. You will not be disappointed. I am VERY real. All you have to do is Relax and Enjoy! I have a pic if interested.

There it is. The first message I ever got on Craigslist for my very first posting. Makes you feel good doesn't it?

Call it destiny or call it I have my own personal stalker

My new transy friends are very good at writing to me everyday. Which scares me a little. I'm thinking it's time to cut them. But, for the sake of the art project, and to keep up the blog I will string them along.

I got another response to my ad yesterday, which brings my tally to 4. oh and that 4th person was my bro, he knew it was me. I have been in contact - aka email - with two of my responses. Gail and John. Gail is very into this and I think that he is thinking this is going somewhere. Insert some Hard Candy reference. I asked Gail if he liked Rocky Horror. He'd never heard of it. What flippin transvestite hasn't heard of it? This bit strengthens my belief that he just sent me pics of himself in his wife's clothes or some that he got at Goodwill. Here are the pics he sent. oh and he is 53.


So today I got a message from him telling me about himself. he said this - Well, I have a nice pontoon boat that I enjoy taking out on the water, I enjoy working outside so I have a natural tan not a store bought one lol. I also do enjoy a good action type movie. I am not a smoker or really a drinker ( I may have one once in a great while but not much), I am pretty much an easy going person, very much into cars n trucks, I enjoy fishing but then I usually set them free, a catch and release thing. I have an old Cocker Spaniel (14) who does not realize she is the dog, I enjoy most type of music but not into the slow drawn out stuff. I am retired now. I retired early from Nissan where I was a supervisor. It as always my goal to retire early and enjoy life.

Sounding a little boring. But it was the boat part that struck me. A little anecdote. Last year around August and September my friends and I would go to the cliffs at the lake and jump off. One time this guy came up in his boat and parked it right in front of us and watched. Didn't say anything to us. We tried to start convos, but he only had short answers and just sat drinking his beer and watched us. So we sat and watched back. I'm thinking this could be the same person. So is this destiny? or is this just way creepy?

me and creeps mcgee
a zoom in on creeps

ps. I have a feeling he will mention taking me out on the boat. and what normal 53 year old man is picing up 21 yr olds on craigslist?

credit to amber g for pics of creeps and credit to gail for pics of himself.

I have taken it upon myself to catch the Craigslist killers.

and make interesting friends.

My Matt put an ad on Craigslist looking for friends:

Lonely painter seeks friends.
Male, white, 23, an artist; painter, photographer, maker of stuffed creatures, and song experimenter seeks creative, interesting, smart, and beautiful friends. Must make jokes about the halocaust, slavery, and those who died on the titanic. No creepers.... actually, creepers allowed.

good idea and hilarious so I made one:

artist looking for new and exciting friends
Female, white, 21
Bored with my current friends.
An artist; painter, sculptor, collagist, seeks free spirits, interesting, intelligent, funny, and beautiful friends. No super Christians apply, no wet blankets. Must be able to keep me interested with funny stories. Alternative lifestyles encouraged.
I do not illegally discriminate on the basis of race, color, national or ethnic origin, sex, age, disability or military service.

So far I have gotten 3 responses (my matt got 0) hehe. but it could be the section I put it in - Strictly platonic ->w4t. aka woman for transvestites (what i was hoping for)/transgenders/transsexuals.

can't wait to introduce my new friends to my old friends.

and on the subject of catching the killer - very likely, 2 of the 3 are scary.

i have mace. and i will only meet these guys around my guy friends. and i will not give out any personal info - though they could get it all from fbook or anything really. hopefully they won't steal my id, or my life.

this is my blog on catching the craigslist killers.
