[ that fucking place run by the hypocrites mentioned earlier in this diary back around february and march of 2010 when I was out in chico at the torres shelter at 101 silver dollar way next to food max, barnes and noble, and costco. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; I went in and inquired about that group home, which I was told is NOT run like most other group homes ; in the sence that you do NOT have a curfew and you can drink as long as it is in the privacy of your room. upon doing so I learned that tjhey had another HUD funded program in which, if you meet both income qualifications and/or on SSDI/SSI, they will help you with your rent for the first year. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;you must find a privately owned apartment, mobile home, or whatever; the place must meet HUD's strict income guidelines of what they call " fair market rent values; which in las cruces is a maximum of $508 for a one bedroom unit and $471 for a studio. this based upon single occupancy for a single individual; not sure as to how that would work with a mobile home being that most small mobiles are at least 2 BR's in size. you as the tenant then pay only 30% of your total income toward the rent, or in the case of someone with a disability, only 28% of the rent total.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;thing is this, the maximum rent costs, according to fucking HUD's rules, MUST INCLUDE THE UTILITIES. something which nearly all landlords do not include in the total rent costs; what landlords that do may only include heat like back east in places like hartford connecticut or new york city/northern new jersey. the place I am renting the landlord actually wanted $450 for; which when factoring in the &lt;br /&gt;" average total utilities' cost" [ based upon the HUD formula ] of approximately $93 [ what the last tenant used. I had to go to the both utility companies to find this out before renting the place] would have far exceeded the cap of $508 per month at $543.so I had to talk the landlord into reducing the rent,at least in the figurative sense of lowering the rent. which simply means that I am responsible not just for my 28% share which comes out to $105 [ based upon my receiving $55 in supplemental security income {SSI} and social security disability {SSDI} for a total of $694 per month here in new mexico { was $781 back in new york because of the extra state supplement of $87 }]. I am also responsible for the extra $50 out of the original $450 total rent per month. [ to which my sister said " no problem. if it doesn't work out I'll help you with part of the rent. I just want to see you get into a place and NOT HAVE TO SLEEP IN THE CAR OR AT ONE OF THOSE CRUMMY SHELTERS ANYMORE!" &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;and so, on saturday october 22, I moved into the new place. the location is awesome, I am only a 3 block walk to new mexico state university ; about 6 blocks to dona ~ ana community college [ on university campus] where I will be attending school starting january 19,2012! the two courses I chose are PHIL 101G , THE ART OF WONDERING which is an introduction to philosophy; the other PSY 201G INTRO TO PSYCHOLOGY which is a beginning course in psycology. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;it was suggested that for myself, especially considering that I both have adult ADD [ attention deficit disorder] and that I have been out of college for at least 10 years and , like I love to say, " A WHOLE OTHER LIFETIME" meaning my gender transition ; that I start back up with just six credit hours maximum course load. this from both trudy, the disabled services coordinator at DACC and from a student at NMSU I met at the queer-straight alliance, or new mexico state university QSA who told me not to make the same mistake that he did and jump into six classes at 15-18 credit hours for a full time and then some course load! his warning was that you'll burn yourself out with all the resulting frustration, much like he did when he first came to NMSU. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;and so, here I am in las cruces; about to undertake something I wanted to do, but never thought I'd have the strength to do. that is to attend college. as for las cruces itself? AM I HAPPY HERE? not necessarily , as I am quickly finding out that it is basically a conservative place with less than tolerant attitudes toward as queers! &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;especially toward the transgender when dealing with the LATINO COMMUNITY here in the " city of the crosses" . named for those " christian" crosses that are often placed on the side of the highway when somebody dies in an automobile accident; or in this case, for the original hispanic settlers who came up into what is now the united state of new mexico via the el camino real; an old stagecoach road leading north from mexico upon which both missionary and early settler traveled back when this was native american territory.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;yet out upon the NMSU campus, attitudes for the most part seem to be far more tolerant than here in the city itself when dealing with the " grown ups" ; people my age with families, spouses, and full time jobs- something which I NEVER REALLY BECAME IN LIFE! you should see the looks I get when I walk into that women's room , or MUJURES ROOM EN ESPANOL' at the local walmart from the mexican women. they often stare at me as if I was some sort of child molester or fucking rapist; when all I am is a fucking transsexual woman who sits the fuck down to piss on the toilet the same god damn way that they all do!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;IGNORANCE! BLAME IT ON THE GOD DAMN CATHOLIC CHURCH! back at the college that day , trudy warned me to beware of the men! the LATINO HOMBRES, many of whom have a bad enough attitude toward women as a whole. there exists a lot of domestic violence in the latino community as a whole, she told me. that does not suprise me, as it was the same with both puerto rican and dominican back in new york city and in connecticut's cities. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;AT LEAST I LIKE COMING TO THE LGBTQ CENTER. AS FOR LAS CRUCES AS A WHOLE? WELL WE'LL JUST HAVE TO WAIT AND SEE. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;CIUDAD LAS CRUCES! ESTADA NEW MEXICO!

I remembered the greyhound turning off onto US 70 and then going up toward a place called lordsburg, NM and over the continental divide through globe, arizona and down-mountain into phoenix on its way to los angeles, california. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;at the time I lived for smoking pot, sure enough when that fucking bus stopped at the lordsburg mc donalds; I instead chose to walk off into the empty pices of property adjoining mc donalds and the tiny village of lordsburg up into the mesquite forest to smoke myself a nice big old joint to keep me happy for the next five hours or so. I smoked another one when we got to phoenix right around sunset, the temperature being a hot, but dry 108 degrees on that early september evening.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;perhaps the most memorable part of the trip was when we left phoenix and headed toward the state of california on that bus; three younger black boys all talking about ' shooting this and that' , ' dealing rocks this and that' for fucking hours. I happened to ask them ' how does that song by tupac shukur go? california love?' the kids who were returning to south central LA from their grandmother's place in phoenix then said ' TUPAC DEAD YO. HE GOT SHOT IN VEGAS LAST NIGHT.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; the guy sitting right next to me in his 40's , whom I mistakenly thought was hispanic but was actually black and now living in truth or consequences after years spent gang banging and later, in and out of the california state penitentary where he got his college degree; then said to those kids ' GOOD. THAT'S THE BEST THING THAT EVER HAPPENED TO THE AFRICAN AMERICAN COMMUNITY.' &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;after they replied " what you saying pops? yo?' he went on telling them ' I'VE BEEN LISTENING TO YOU ALL FOR THE LAST FIVE HOURS TALKING ABOUT ' SHOOTING THIS, SHOOTING THE COPS THAT. DEALING ROCK THIS AND THAT. CALLING YOURSELVES NIGGER THIS AND NIGGER THAT. ALL THAT ENERGY Y'ALL SPEND DEALING AND SHOOTING YOU COULD BE SPENDING IN COLLEGE GETTING YOUR DEGREE. THERE'S NO EXCUSE FOR YOUNG BLACK MEN LIKE YOURSELF NOT TO GO TO UCLA AND GET YOUR COLLEGE DEGREE. ITS NOT LIKE WHEN I WAS GROWING UP IN THE 60'S ANYMORE- NOTHING IS STOPPING YOU, YOUNG BROTHERS.'&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;anyway, driving west and half tired by this time, I never realized that they had border patrol stations in new mexico. I still remembered the one at fort stockton in texas when the greyhound bus passed through, also another one at van horn in texas. sort of forgot which one was on the way there and which was on the way back east, as much like the story of my fucked up piece of shit life both before and after transition, that trip to redding california failed and I once again returned to the easy life , financially, of living with my elderly parents even though I hated fucking orlando to the max. a place which at the time had more then its share of FUNDAMENTALIST CHRISTIANS TRYING TO GET THE LOCAL , MOSTLY REPUBLICAN , POLITICIANS TO SEE THINGS THEIR WAY.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;passing through the border patrol station roughly about 25 miles west of las cruces on interstate 10, when the young cocky prick wad of a guy with shaved head and military style attitude problem stopped me, I did not hear his first question which was ARE YOU A US CITIZEN and forced him to repeat it again. of course I answered thr truth, ' yes I am' , at which time he decided to ask, seeing my connecticut license ' tags' or plates, ' WHERE ARE YOU COMING FROM?' [ LAS CRUCES NEW MEXICO] ' WHERE WERE YOU COMING FROM BEFORE THAT?' [ CONNECTICUT BY WAY OF ALBUQUERQUE, NEW MEXICO]. ' WELL YOU HAVE A NICE NIGHT, MA'AM. ' [ YOU TOO OFFICER] &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;the next day after sleeping in that tiny rest area on the west side of US 280, I headed toward silver city; a place where my friend warren's old navy friend bill is reported to be living homeless; he's got a post office box there according to warren. everybody said it was a really awesome artistic town , small but quite liberal and full of older hippies and vietnam veterans, or ' soldiers of fortune'. there I camped in my car for the next six days up in the gila national forest close to the gila cliff dwellings at the forks' campground [ pronounced Hee-la by the way].&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;the next few days I did more hiking than I have done in a long time. not since briefly living back in western new york and going hiking along the finger lakes trail in letchworth state park, a trail which basically runs close to the ' grand canyon of the east'. a huge canyon about 500 feet deep running along the genessee river flowing northward toward lake ontario from south of genessee, pennsylvania and wellsville new york in the allegheny mountains of western pennsylvania. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;one day I hiked nearly 12-1/2 miles along the west fork trail toward big bear canyon and along the meadow trail before going back to the west fork trail. this after just two days prior hiking the eight miles double E canyon loop and also doing a four mile hike up and back on big bear canyon trail the first time. I also visited the girl cliff dwellings twice, going on the ranger-led information tour once at the top of those gila cliffs by the cave dwellings. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;leaving the gila national forest silver city, I headed toward the tiny town of glenwood, a place which like silver city I found to be quite friendly despite my being a half passable transsexual woman. I also camped in the car a few days near glenwood, hiking the catwalk trail leading up through that steep gorge following a flowing brook all the way to the top along well-maintained forest service trails and a literal steel mesh catwalk with a swinging bridge.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;that night I camped again at the forest service campground just outside of glenwood. next day I headed up and over that steep and narrow road , state road 159 which becomes only one fucking lane with no guardrails as you cross over the mountains and into the tiny ghost town of mogollon [ pronounced Mug-eee-an]. from there I continued up well into the higher elevations at well above 9,000 feet above sea level; crossing the continental divide several times as I slowly drove along what was now a dirt road leading through the ponderosa pines and aspen trees already beginning to change colors. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;somehow I got lost somewhere up around snow lake and ended up on forest road 28 ; following the free map the forest ranger gave me after explaining that they have a 15-day camping limit forest wide in the gila national forest [ when I was stupid enough to mention that I was living in my car temporarily]. anyway, the road I followed landed me out by some ranch, so I backtracked as darkness set in and came back to forest road 28; then followed that and some other road; eventually getting to state highway 12 near old horse springs; at which point I headed toward datil-another 29 miles north. I camped in the cold car at a campground by datil wells national recreation area that night for half price; a benefit afforded me by my national parks and forests advantage passport only available to those with a disability. you need the medicare card to get one of those; they are similar to the golden age passport for those 62 years of age or older. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;the next day I got to see datil, a small crossroads town located at the junction of SR 12 and US highway 60; I did not go to datil wells though which was a short hike from the campground. headed east on highway US 60 , I got to see those huge radio telescopes that make datil new mexico famous; the VLA which stands for very large array. located off SR 52 on SR 166, it is open to the public from like 8 AM to 9 PM. it is a place where astronomers from around the world, as well as astronomy students and professors from the Socorro branch of the university of new mexico, perform scientific experiments to learn more about our own milky way, solar system, and other far off galaxies as well. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;in order to do this they use radio wave frequencies which are transmitted out into space from these huge telescopes weighing as much as 200 tons and measuring about 54 feet in diameter. some of the findings they have discovered have been that the planet mercury actually has polar ice caps similar to our own planet earth and that there are clouds and weather systems similar to earth on pluto, I believe. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;from there I headed back to SR 52, a state highway which literally becomes a gravel and later dirt road as you turn right to go south.I then followed it all the way southeast as it passed for miles through huge cattle ranches rolling up and down through the now open countryside. this till I got to the next town on the map called winston; a place with no gas stations and little else of anything besides a fucking saloon. 48 miles of dirt road from the intersection or SR 162 by the very large array; to you come to the junction with route 59! new mexico is one of few states I have seen where state highways can be dirt roads; the others being colorado and northern california. eventually I came to cuchillo and then continued all the way till I almost got to truth or consequences. there I pulled the car over and decided to camp another night in the car at the junction of SR 161 and SR 52. the next day I drove down into elephant butte, getting the car washed at a self serve car wash in order to get rid of all that dust. those miles of dirt roads literally left a film of dust inside my car.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;the next morning, sunday,I had awakened to a  couple of cop cars at the corner of SR 52 and 181 near truth or consequences. unsure if they were about to hassle me for sleeping in the car at that pull off , i simply ignored them; later realizing that they were having some sort of race that day they were getting set up for. i ended up driving down route 181 a little; at which point I took care of my usual grooming routine before heading out toward the city of elephant butte; finding a car wash so as to wash off all that nasty dust accumulated from driving miles of dusty dirt roads the two days before. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;basically my idea was to check out in more detail the cities of elephant butte and truth or consequences; the latter of which here in new mexico is called T or C for short. elephant butte seemed to be a very CONSERVATIVE PLACE; full of all sorts of gospel and evangelical churches and retirement communities. going into mc donalds to eat later that sunday morning, I said to myself " THIS HAS TO BE THE  FIRST PLACE HERE IN NEW MEXICO WHICH IS ABOUT AS REDNECK AS BACK EAST IN BATH AND WELLSVILLE NEW YORK WAS." " but" I continued to myself as I too often do. " I guess this is to be expected; as motorboats and rednecks seem to go together like they did back in southbury connecticut in places like lakeside down by lake zoar." &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I followed route 179 into elephant butte, then drove along route 51 all the way out to some town called engle, a tiny town located about 19 miles west of both T or C and elephant butte out in the middle of the desert. then I turned around and went back in to elephant butte toward the huge dam across the rio grande that creates new mexico's largest lake- the man made lake called elephant butte lake. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;there at the dam overlook I learned from the park service officer as to what was going on that day. they were having a triathlon; a race in which the participants swam two miles across the lake, then rode a bicycle for a set amount of miles; finishing up with a road running race of five kilometers. the people watching the race from the dam overlook seemed to be, for the most part, quite friendly toward me like so many I had met here in new mexico since coming into the state. this despite of my half passable transsexual status. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;later that day I went into truth or consequences to explore the town; a town made up of a small artist community mixed , of course, with a latino barrio full of mexican-americans ; along with both retirees and its share of fucking rednecks. truth or consequences was one of the three places here in new mexico I had thought about living in since quickly leaving albuquerque- albuquerque being a place I maybe should have given more of a chance to before hurrying to get on the I-25 freeway and heading south. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;after exploring truth or consequences and seeing all those " new mexico meth watch" signs all over the place- I quickly got the impression that T or C had its share of problems despite having a well thriving artist community downtown in the hot springs historic district. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;needless to say I got back on the freeway that afternoon and drove back toward the place I knew best that had a small gay community with  a thriving LGBTQ center; a city of about 97,000 and growing quickly called las cruces, which in spanish or espanol' means " the crosses" . I did not go all the way there that night; rather to the next rest area along I-25 about 20 miles north of the city where I ended up spending a much warmer night sleeping in my car after listening to sunday night football on the el paso ESPN affliiate on AM radio; KROD I think it is called. the same rest area very awesomely landscaped with all sorts of desert plants, trees, and other shrubbery native to the chihuahuan desert of Southern New Mexico USA and northern Mexico's state of chihuahua &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;the very next day I drove straight down into good old las cruces, or CIUDAD LAS CRUCES in espanol' as it is called. that day I went to the gay and lesbian center after first picking up a cup of coffee at the valero convenience store and gas station at the corner of three crosses road and north main street. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;and so that it the story of how I ended up here in las cruces.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/24283143-3441260516712211200?l=cheryloropal.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://cheryloropal.blogspot.com/feeds/3441260516712211200/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://cheryloropal.blogspot.com/2011/11/that-night-of-sept.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24283143/posts/default/3441260516712211200'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24283143/posts/default/3441260516712211200'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://cheryloropal.blogspot.com/2011/11/that-night-of-sept.html' title=''/><author><name>Cheryl</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10239724355224966337</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_9HXCFGtdR64/SYvGAT9Xz_I/AAAAAAAAAvs/lerMOD449Hk/S220/Cheryl+Jan+2009+open+mike-+Ms.+Poetry+Bitch.JPG'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24283143.post-2711307489432248631</id><published>2011-11-01T18:08:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2011-11-03T17:51:18.643-07:00</updated><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-weight:bold;"&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.nmsu.http://www.blogger.com/img/blank.gifedu"&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt; GO FUCKING AGGIES. yeah it looks like the end to my long journey of being Homeless and Hopeless in the [ so called] Land of Opportunity called America. this to be the title of my second novel besides the still unfinished one titled Other Side of Gainesville that is still packed away in my Monroe, Connecticut Storage unit back east. I am so fucking glad to have gotten away from that god damn horrible homeless shelter back in brooklyn new york; the Institute for community living run by a so called non profit corporation of same name operated by peter campanelli- a catholic son of a bitch that the biased news writer [somebody that goes by the email of crichardson@nydailynews.com] at the new york daily news thought the most highly of by the way he praised this son of a mother fucking bastard in his article detailing the award that this son of a bastard bitch got from the american psychiatric association. [ perhaps more like the american psychological association]. little did he mention how things REALLY ARE on the INSIDE of the shelters that this supposedly not for profit corporation, scamming millions of dollars off the taxpayers of New York City and STATE. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;for example, right now my friend Diane is still living at their women's homeless shelter located at 200 tillary street in downtown Brooklyn, NY. [ I left there on august 29, 2011- disgusted with both the fucking place and the whole god damn rat's asshole of a city I now refer to new york shitty. a name originally given to it by a Midwesterner I worked with years ago down in Orlando, Florida. the elevator of the eight story building, which houses both the ICL for women and a seperate men's homeless shelter operated by another so called non-profit CORPORATION called CAMBA on prince street across from the NYPD precinct [ CAMBA logo: where you CAN]; has been shut down since the beginning of september from what she told me. this for replacement because the god damn thing was nothing more than an old piece of shit that kept breaking down about every two weeks.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;like myself back at the end of august when, fed up with the whole god damn east coast and especially new york shitty and its mostly rude people, I heard the call of the great Lord COYOTE say Go back west, bitch; she is still waiting for that elusive housing package. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;believe me I heard the same old shit from my fucking case manager I had during the 201 long days I spent at ICL tillary, the ghetto princess named bronique braithwaite [who had been known to favor certain clients, as residents of ICL tillary were called, over others]. in fact the words she said to me when, on the friday preceding that monday I finally got in my honda accord at exactly 11:22 PM on that still warm monday evening of august 29 and jetted down the brooklyn-queens freeway&lt;br /&gt;[ expressway ]toward eastern long island's rolling pine barrens, were similar.&lt;br /&gt;[ quote] are you sure about this?[ unquote] she said when I walked into her office the friday before hurricane irene blew through new york city and up into connecticut; bringing high winds and heavy rains- the worst of which devastated CONNECTICUT and long island's east end causing downed trees and major power outages.[ quote] YOU KNOW THAT YOUR HOUSING PACKAGE WAS APPROVED AND YOU'LL SOON BE GOING FOR YOUR HOUSING INTERVIEW WITH THE DHS {new york city department of homeless services-a major bureaucracy that oversees all the homeless shelters in the city of new york}[ unquote]. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; PERSONALLY I DID NOT CARE. this being something that this cunt and a half of a mother fucking case manager had been telling me since the middle of may 2011. I felt I was not losing out on anything; this even though ahead of me on that august evening of the 29th lied more than 2,000 miles of uncertainty as I first drove east to revisit eastern long island's hamptons and montauk before driving up to my sister in law's home in bridgeport, connecticut's creme de la creme neighborhood of black rock. a place I spent a week at after first camping in my car for a few days at the beautiful connecticut welcome center/rest area off exit 2 of the I-84 Yankee Freeway.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I knew that I wanted to go back to the west; this since my mom had died of old age at age 90 in parker jewish institute- the totally awesome new hyde park, new york&lt;br /&gt;[ queens] nursing home where she spent the last year of her life. this at 3 Pm on june 30, 2011. there was nothing left for me back fucking east besides my sister in great neck on long island; my sister in law in bridgeport connecticut; and my two friends also in connecticut; warren up in avon; and james in wallingford. the last being the infamous author of two awesome must read books titled &lt;span style="font-style:italic;"&gt; THE WOOLRIDGE TALE and THE LONELY HILL&lt;span style="font-style:italic;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;. both of which can be found at www.publishamerica.com and perhaps on amazon.com as well.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;that night as I left brooklyn at exactly 11:22 PM [ when that old crack addicted black woman panhandler with the amputated leg in her wheelchair rolled up toward my car at the red light on the corner of tillary and navy street near the R.W. Ingersoll housing projects ; prompting me to quickly roll up my fucking window], I had my sights set upon albuquerque. new mexico's largest city and one which has a large lesbian and gay community in it. how I ended up here in las cruces[ the city my sister cautioned me to stay away from due to its proximity to El Paso in western texas and its crime infested sister city south of the Mexican border called ciudad juarez]? well after staying about 5 days with my sister in law in Bridgeport, CT, I drove off at around 8:30 PM on Thursday Sept. 8. this after downing two huge cups of coffee, saying goodbye and thanking her for helping me out once again; passing by long island sound for one more look at the east coast, then stopping at the westport mc donalds one more time to grab a few mc chicken's to eat along the way. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; the time now about 9:15 PM,north along familiar roseville road I headed,driving toward cross highway, turning left, right onto Weston road[ which becomes route 57 and later route 53] and onto the westbound Merritt parkway[ Connecticut route 15]; an old fashioned expressway designed for passenger cars only which,when completed in 1939; was one of the most modern superhighways in the united states of America besides southern California's Pasadena parkway[ now Pasadena freeway]also completed around the same time.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;less than one hour later I was saying goodbye to the east coast which I knew all too well; an east coast I'd originally hoped to never return to when I first drove those back highways all the way west toward surf, california ; then up toward northern california's humboldt county and into rainy, but pretty and full of awesome people, central oregon. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;passing at about 70 miles per hour through white plains, memories of the many nights spent with the boys and girls at the former border's books cafe in the westchester mall annex; well as that hot aguust late night with john at the lazy boy pub when I declared that I [ quote] was growing my hair long like a chick to let out my innermost personality [ unquote]; I soon was crossing the all too familiar TAPPAN ZEE BRIDGE and THAT NEARLY MILE WIDE HUDSON RIVER MADE FAMOUS BY BILLY JOEL IN HIS SONG TITLED NEW YORK STATE OF MIND. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;from there it was north[ actually west in this section]onto I-90; a tollway otherwise known as the new york state thruway. [ made famous especially during the  august 1969 summer weekend of that most famous of outdoor hippie music festivals-WOODSTOCK up in sullivan county's bethel, new york when the dude named wavy gravy declared [ quote] THE NEW YORK STATE THRUWAY IS CLOSED, MAN. CAN YOU DIG IT? &lt;br /&gt;[ unquote]. quickly passing the first tollbooth which is now for commercial vehicles ONLY, I continued northbound on I-90 to the I-287 freeway; then headed south into new jersey's ramapo mountains where I stopped to get gas and use the ladies' room; then continued on toward the I-80 freeway and headed west into pennsylvania's pocono and endless mountains[ part of the allegheny chain, or northeastern Appalachian mountains]. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;about four hours later I was halfway through PA and just north of state college, home to the university of pennsylvania and the infamous nittany lions, an NCAA big ten football team which has been coached by the same head football coach since the middle 1960's. an 84 year old man they call the great Joe Pa, Joe Paterno. there I spent a warm and drizzly night camping in may car at a rest area, awakening around 8:30 in the morning to the most green, soft and rounded mountains one has ever seen.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; Friday,September 9&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;from there I continued on I-80 west,soon crossing the eastern continental divide of 2,280 feet above sea level; watching as those allegheny mountains of western pennsylvania slowly tapered off toward the rolling allegheny plateau, or foothills, of northeastern ohio. there I stopped for gas in some small town called godfrey before continuing on toward akron and onto I-76 as I passed the once great industrial giant of america known as the good year tire company's corporate headquarters and former tire factory.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I then drove south on I-71, the hills getting smaller and smaller and the sun finally coming out for the first time since thrusday afternoon back in bridgeport. about two hours later I was passing through columbus in central ohio; by this time it was afternoon and the weekend rush hour traffic just beginning as I continued toward interstate 70 west and into indiana. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;stopping  for gas one more time at the ohio/indiana state line, westbound through gently rolling prarie and farmland as far as the eye could see I drove; hitting the later half of the rush hour traffic as I cruised through indianapolis at about 65-70 miles an hour. the sun setting as I left that city and continued toward Illinois where I stopped at a pizza hut in some redneck as all get the fuck out town called CASEY. a place full of pickup truck driving REDNECK ASSHOLES that is quite similar to effingham ; another hillbilly city about 30 more miles west which is home to a nearly 200 foot tall aluminum fucking cross dedicated to all the christian-redneck douchebags who wouldn't know Jesus if he came back to life from the dead and SPIT IN THEIR HYPOCRITICAL FACES.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;now after 11:00 PM on a lovely , warm friday night in southern Illinois' REDNECK-DOM, heading into effingham, appropriately tiled THE CROSS-ROADS OF AMERICA because of its towering, million dollar monstrosity constructed by some midwestern industrialist desperate to publicly display his love for the long dead God figure called Jesus Christ; I got stuck in one big fucking hell of a late night traffic jam due to road construction along interstate 70 where it intersects with interstate 57&lt;br /&gt;[ which will take you north to Chicago and south toward carbondale and Anna, Illinois and the southern Illinois' Ozark foothills.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;now tired , soon as the next rest area came up, I pulled into it and , being the  perpetual homeless bitch that I was for so long; parked the mother fucking car and spent a delightfully warm, late summer's night in the low 70's listening to the sound of those loud crickets mingling with the sound of idling tractor trailer trucks; the scent of those tall red oaks growing upon that gently rolling prarie invigorating my sense of smell.&lt;br /&gt;saturday, sept.10 &lt;br /&gt;next day I had awakened to a busload full of midwestern high school boys headed for their saturday afternoon football game; getting a few stares of [ quote] what the fuck is that thing?[ unquote]by the looks of their eyes as I walked toward the women's room to finish brushing my teeth and change my clothes in the large, handicapped stall at the end. a few southern/midwestern style women also in there who gave some stares of uncomfortability but otherwise remained polite and did not say a word. [ my tits jetting out from my sleeveless top like rooftop headlights upon one of those four wheel drive redneck pick-em-up trucks pretty much telling the story as to why I was in that fucking women's room I am sure. negating the effects of the still remaining facial shadow even after two $100 sessions of laser hair removal done back in april and may at randee-elaine day spa at 180 7th ave. south in manhattan, new york city.].&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;back on the I-70 freeway and headed west toward saint louis, missouri; I exited at vandalia and took the old national road, US route 40, ten miles toward the hometown of country music superstar best known for her song titled REDNECK WOMAN; gretchen wilson of POCAHONTAS , ILLINOIS. 750 people, three bars to get all liquored up at on friday or saturday night, plenty of mother fucking conservative christian churches to get your god damn hung-over soul saved the sunday morning after, but NO FUCKING PUBLIC LIBRARY. oh yes, I forgot the country store, three antique shops[ one abandoned], a row of equally abandoned storefronts [ perhaps due to the effects of having two or three walmarts, all within 30 miles of pocahontas, illinois????], and yes, THE TOWN PARK WHICH IS NAMED AFTER WHO ELSE? DID ANYBODY SAY MS. GRETCHEN WILSON, HONEY? Gretchen Wilson park, which has a lovely fishing lake, ballfields, nice clean restrooms; you had to see those local folks passing by as they got a look at all those rainbow, gay pride bumper stickers on the back of my fucking honda accord. WHEEE-HAW Y'ALL. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;remembering the route, for the most part, from when I first passed through pocahontas, illinois; north past the infamous powhattan steak house with its huge sized country breakfast meals like the one named GRETCHEN'S FAVORITE and another titled POCAHONTAS PRIDE[ three eggs, a humongous stack of pancakes, country fried steak with awesome gravy]; this time I did not stop to eat, but continued north toward state road 146 I believe, then west all the way into alton. a city where one of my former unitarian ministers at woodbury, connecticut's mattituck UU society, carol, had lived for some time before coming back east within 100 miles of her native new jersey. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;while there I grabbed lunch at hardees'in godfrey, IL , a fast food place common to both midwestern, and southeastern states from maryland to florida; now owned by CKE enterprises- the same corporation which owns CARL'S JR. out here in the west which began in anaheim, california. from there I drove north along Illinois route 100, a road following the illinois river which resembles US route 9W in new york in the sense that it too has its cliffs known as the Palisades. getting into grafton, a tiny but very much artsy town located along the green banks of that mighty Illinois' river; I took the free ferry across that river into golden eagle and calhoun county. a place which has some of the highest rolling hills one will ever see between the green applachians near the east coast; and much dryer and browner pine tree and mesquite studded rocky mountains of colorado and new mexico.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;golden eagle is one cool little town for sure. there is a small post office there and, right next to it, an old fashioned country store with a soda fountain dating back to the 1930's; the golden eagle general store which is filled with old bicycles and world war II era model airplanes hanging from the ceilings. though a little pricey at about $4.00, it serves one of the best old fashioned ice cream floats I ever tasted. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;the young dude working there was very cool toward me, a self-proclaimed LIBERAL TO THE MAX living in the midst of a rather conservative, bible-belt farming region. this despite my obviously being a not that passable transsexual. his friend sitting there on a saturday afternoon was equally nice to me; this despite that CONFEDERATE FLAG BASEBALL STYLE CAP he wore as he sat waiting for his friend to get off of work in the old rocking chair. heading toward the golden eagle ferry which crosses the mighty old lady of middle america called the Mississippi river from golden eagle, IL into saint charles, missouri; I first drove around touring the local area. an area quickly becoming a connecticut or new jersey like semi-rural suburban bedroom community to many of saint louis' growing number of white collar corporate executives.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;the ferry cost exactly $8.00, cheaper than the bridges in and out of new york city like the triboro at $10.50 and george washington now at $12.50. taking photos of the same Mississippi river that I crossed once before on the grafton-saint charles ferry the first trip from east to west coasts; as the boat prepared to dock on that much flatter and swampier missouri side; on the AM radio in my car was none other then my sister's favorite FOX NEWS host; glen beck. discussing the recent tragedy which happened in nevada when the mentally ill gunman walked in to an IHOP [ international house of pancakes] chain restaurant and opened fire. for a minute the little bit of redneck in me came out as I definitely agreed with him on position number three; that if a law abiding person with a gun and knowledge of how to shoot the God damn thing walked in- the son of a bitch would have been shot and taught a very valuable lesson right quick.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;before leaving golden eagle , I questioned as to whether I should continue west toward Albuquerque? or stay in southern Illinois instead and make that my home. despite the rednecks, people in that part of Illinois are really quite nice; definitely VERY FRIENDLY WHEN COMPARED TO THOSE STUCK THE FUCK UP , UPTIGHT CORPORATE ASSHOLES IN CONNECTICUT AND MOSTLY NASTY BLACK BASTARDS IN NEW YORK CITY I LIVED WITH FOR NEARLY 7 MONTHS AT THAT SHELTER.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;yet I continued on, getting gas once more in st. charles, MO before heading back east along the eight lane I-70 freeway into saint louis; then south along I-270 toward I-44; the route which will take you southwest through the ozark mountains. &lt;br /&gt;[ by accident I ended up on I-64 west instead; going nearly 22 miles out of my way before turning back around and heading toward I-270 all over again. that sucked major ass, as by this time conserving gas began to become a major concern; the money in my direct express card account growing smaller as I traveled farther west.]&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;onward down I-44 west I drove, those ozark hills soon becoming mountains; the sky much clearer than it was back in illinois with those thunderclouds looming in the distance. finally the nearly full moon was out. exiting the freeway near rolla, missouri, I drove off down steeply rolling and surely winding and twisting country roads; hoping to find a place in that section of the mark twain national forest private enough where I could park the car and sleep for the night. instead I ended up on some state road leading toward a bridge and gate post of some army or air force base; having to back up and then turning around like the good old boys driving the four wheel drive truck ahead also had to. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;needless to say I gave up and chose to drive back to freeway I-44; passing through lebanon, MO. a town I remembered as the hometown of katie hogden- a freaky but really fucking major bitchen' to the max young woman I used to stay up till the wee hours of the morning and chat with online in the old marilyn manson shitty chat back when I was still living as the M thing. sleeping once again at yet another rest area about 17 miles southwest of lebanon; the next day sunday sept.11/ [day four of the trip] I felt compelled to turn around and go back to lebanon just to see if it really was the redneck fucking shithole full of narrow-minded assholes that katie often said that it was. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; she was  17 and a separated, semi-single mother of twins when I first knew her; first living in orange , texas; later returning at age 19 to Lebanon, MO where she grew up to try and make things work between the abusive fuckhead of a husband and father of her twins who'd often hit her. at that time, around 2002 or 2003[ when I was still living as 'It']she had a three bedroom apartment in lebanon which cost her only $350 a month. going so far as to offer me a place to live if I ever wanted to leave my mom's place where I had it easy for so many years in southbury, connecticut. to be honest, katie actually had a crush on me back then. as I remember she was bisexual, but much more into men than into women.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;she also had an interesting life when I first knew her. I know she worked by day at a walmart as a cashier; also moonlighting as a stripper doing birthday parties and stuff. something that at the time and still to this day I think is cool; it showed that she was a feminist in a way. actually what it does show, especially to all the asshole fucking FUNDAMENTALIST CHRISTIANS WHO VOTE REPUBLICAN-CONSERVATIVE, is this. THAT A SINGLE MOM BORN AND RAISED IN A BIBLE BELT ENVIRONMENT[ like missouri or most of texas] WHO DROPPED OUT OF HIGH SCHOOL BECAUSE SHE GOT PREGNANT AT AGE 16 SIMPLY CAN NOT SURVIVE ON WALMART'S LOW WAGES. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;it also showed that the more one grows up hearing about all the wonderful things that jesus did , from HOMOPHOBIC HYPOCRITES THAT WOULDN'T KNOW WHO JESUS WAS IF, UPON PAYING THEM ALL A PERSONAL VISIT ONE SUNDAY MORNING AT THEIR BIBLE-POUNDING EVANGELICAL CHRISTIAN AND BAPTIST CHURCHES, HE SMACKED THEM STRAIGHT IN THEIR GOD DAMN MOTHER FUCKING HYPOCRITICAL FACES; the more one is likely to  turn to ' satan' for comfort and allow this christian-invented character called ' satan' to show them the way in life. the late church of satan founder, anton szandor la vey surely was right when he said ' the more one is purged and scourged of ' sin' in their life by some white light religion; the more they will turn to the same life of ' sin' they were warned to stay away from. katie was actually a pagan-wiccan, much like myself.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;that said, as 'frog', she saw me as so very different than the other [ so called] men she knew; I'm now so sure that she sensed that feminine side desperately trying to sneak the fuck out from behind the so called ' male' masquerade I had lived as for way too long. I used to ask her some of the most personal questions one could ask any woman from the perspective of who I was living as back then. namely my number one curiosity of all which was: WHAT DOES A WOMAN SOUND LIKE WHEN SHE PEES INTO THE TOILET BOWL? if I remember right, katie was one of few women that knew about my secret fetish [ or so I thought]. I believe I had told her that, just to see what it felt like [ back then as It] to be a woman, I would often go out of my way to find a suitable unisex restroom in public so that I could sit down to pee. I did tell her that I always did this at home, and yes; that somebody told me that I was more than likely TRANSGENDER. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;yeah, as I drove around lebanon missouri, I thought about katie. she surely was right about the fucking place being a redneck shithole; a place where about the only thing good about it were those much cheaper than other areas of the USA rental prices. when I would tell her that one bedroom apartments, even then back in 2002-03, in danbury, conn. were renting for over $850 per month; she about shit after hearing that. lebanon surely was everything she told me it was, though. I walked in to get lunch at the wendy's and lo and behold; all these dumb as a dead tree stump by the looks upon their faces fucking hillbillies surely acted as if they done saw a fucking ghost. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;for a moment I felt like saying I'M CASPER THE FRIENDLY GHOST'S FUCKING WIFE- YOU STUPID MOTHER FUCKING ASSHOLES. that or the sweet transvestite from transsexual Transylvania played by tim curry in the all time cult classic titled the ROCKY HORROR PICTURE SHOW. a movie I just saw again during a friday night screening for members and allies at the new mexico LGBTQ center here in ciudad las cruces at 1210 north main street.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I felt like looking up katie and did upon my [ at the time] straight talk web enabled cell phone; a slow process which took over a half hour as I sat in my car at that rest area I slept the night before. but failing to get into yellowpages.com, I could not find her number. all that I could find was some comment about a now 26 year old single mom of five named Katie hogden asking a question about rentals in some nearby town close to Lebanon in Missouri. that and another one by woman of same name with ' Seattle Washington' as her hometown on Facebook or twitter- one of those. I take it she's still living someplace around that area of the ozarks? or maybe she moved to seattle area? Seattle would be more like her to be honest; katie was one of the kewlest women I even knew.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;anyway, back onto I-44 west and headed toward Oklahoma. destined to save money for better things like gas and food, I exited the I-44 freeway in Joplin, Missouri; another town where a few of the goth kids between the ages of 16-23 I used to know lived in or nearby to. I-44 becomes the will Rodgers turnpike in Oklahoma, so rather then piss money away on tolls, I got off of I-44 and instead followed the former US-route 66 [ now MO-66; KS-66; and later OK-66] into the south-easternmost corner of Kansas; passing an old iron suspension bridge dating back to the 1920's and, upon entering Oklahoma- following a mostly dirt road with a one lane strip of concrete pavement running down its center that originally was the former US route 66 until being De-commissioned sometime in the 1960's when I-44 was built I'm guessing.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;if I remember correctly, the old road then became US 261? when you turned left; then I followed that all the way to Oklahoma route 66; at which point the road turned to the west again and I continued following it all the way into both Tulsa[ the oral roberts university town] and later Oklahoma city- at which point I got back on I-40 west and continued all the way into texas. driving along the old US route 66, I got to see many small towns and one hell of a beautiful sunset. this as the surrounding landscape changed from the green, mostly pine tree covered ozark mountains of southwestern Missouri; to the dryer and dustier, yet equally hilly for the most part, ozark mountains of oklahoma. having never been through oklahoma, I did not realize that it was much hillier then its neighbor to the north, kansas- a state which actually does have rolling hills in many places, but can also be quite flat for miles as well.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;now dark as I traveled west along I-44, I continued all the way into the texas' panhandle; camping out in my car at what had to be one of the most interesting freeway rest areas I ever spent the night at. built into the side of a dirt hill to both shield it from the winds and conserve energy, this rest area and texas' welcome center was a curiousity all in itself. the electric power used to run the lighting worked off of a wind-powered turbine designed to well utilize the constantly blowing winds coming off of those open plains of that western texas' desert landscape. that night I had seen the brightest full moon I ever saw. that morning I had awakened to a landscape of nearly barren plains stretching for what seemed to be endless miles; all the way toward the panhandle of oklahoma and maybe toward kansas as well.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;september 12&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;now day 5 of my trip west, I continued west along interstate 40, stopping to get gas in a small town nestled among west texas dustbowl desert landscape called GROOM. A TOWN THAT, MUCH LIKE EFFINGHAM BACK IN ILLINOIS, IS FAMOUS FOR WHAT ELSE? ANOTHER GOD DAMN ILLUMINATED AT NIGHT CROSS TOWERING NEARLY 190 FEET ABOVE THE OTHERWISE NEARLY BARREN OF ALMOST ALL TREES EXCEPT FOR A FEW COTTONWOODS, LANDSCAPE. this one was erected by the knights of Columbus, supposedly as a symbol to all the so called unborn babies who died as victims of america's obsession with legal abortion. GAG ME WITH A FUCKING SPOON FOR SURE.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I had to see that cross, another one similar to the one back in effingham, illinois- about the same height tall, roughly 170 feet tall from what the sign said; this crucifix was dedicated to all the so callled ' innocent victims of american abortion.' [ I'm sure that the national organization for women would love this fucking thing; the asshole who built it as well.] much like the one back in Illinois, this one had all the ten stations of the cross surrounding it; each with its own lesson about one of the ten commandments. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;the best part was the bronze statue of the ' WEEPING JESUS', COMPLETE WITH WHAT WAS SUPPOSED TO BE AN ' UNBORN BABY' , OR FETUS TUCKED IN HIS HAND. WHAT A DEDICATION TO HOW THE CATHOLIC CHURCH RUN GROUP CALLLED THE KNIGHTS OF COLUMBUS VIEWS A WOMAN'S RIGHT TO CHOOSE WHAT SHE CAN DO WITH HER OWN BODY.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;like the cross garden back in effingham, IL this one as well comes complete with a gift shop and cafeteria serving meals for a donation. as a homeless transwoman I felt like going inside and seeing if they could help me out; this after viewing all the fucking coins of all denominations of money tossed into the fountain for use by the church group who runs this place. many senior citizens were also there, you had to see the way they stared at me upon seeing both my transgender asshole and upon reading all the gay/lesbian rights bumper stickers adorning the rear end of my honda accord. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;watching the way those mother fuckers whom , I am sure, consider themselves to be holier than thou ' Christians' , look at me as if I was some sort of satanic plague released by the god of the jewish underworld beelzebub himself; one only has to wonder how jesus would feel toward many of the sons of bastards whom supposedly believe in his teachings and follow his path to the letter of the bible?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;for the fuck of it I decided to text message my friend warren back in avon connecticut. his response being ' DANGER, DANGER WILL ROBINSON. REMOVE YOURSELF FROM DANGER IMMEDIATELY.' MEANING GET THE HELL OUT OF THAT BIBLE BELT TOWN AND NORTHWESTERN TEXAS AS A WHOLE. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;so I continued on, stopping next in amarillo, texas just to see that huge cowboy on the sign outside the big texan,a steakhouse made famous by adam on cable TV's travel channel in his show titled man vs food; well as by its great 72 ounce steak dinner challenge. if you can eat the whole fucking thing in one hour or less, the entire dinner not just that 4-1/2 pound steak; then you get the whole meal for FREE. walking into the big texan, suddenly I felt the eyes of many of the redneck cowboys there all over me- LOOKING AT ME AS IF I WAS SOMETHING WORSE THEN THE GOD DAMN GAY BUBONIC PLAGUE. seeing my fat ass in denim skirt, those mother fuckers did not know what to think; their PENISES and attached testicles OBVIOUSLY SERVING AS THEIR ONLY BRAINS.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;THE PLACE ITSELF IS NOTHING MORE THAN A ROUTE 66 TOURIST TRAP BY THE PRICES OF EVERYTHING UPON THE MENU. manhattan new york city prices in the middle of the west texas bible belt's other hellhole called AMARILLO; lubbock texas- the hometown of both natalie maines of the dixie chicks well as the late buddy holly being the alternate bible belt hellhole in west texas. for the most part I've got to admit, people there were relatively friendly toward me- at least the women were.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;taking a few photos of the big texan, I soon got back onto freeway I-40 and headed toward what I first thought was fixing to be my final destination; albuquerque, new mexico. about an hour later I arrived at the new mexico welcome center; a place where the butchy-femme looking woman working behind the counter seemed to welcome me with open arms. WHAT A DIFFERENCE BETWEEN NEW MEXICO AND ALL THOSE BIBLE BELT STATES PRECEEDING IT I TRAVELED THROUGH. the scenery gets slightly greener in new mexico then it is in the more flat and dryer, with far fewer plants, desert high plains of west texas' panhandle. [ I'm sure because of the way all those Republican ranchers really adhere to the idea of 'sustainability' and 'green farming' by allowing their god damn cattle to chew up nearly everything in sight for miles and miles. hey its the governor rick perry and senator ron paul way. something to consider when voting for out next presidental canidate.]&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;continuing farther into new mexico till I passed the small town of santa rosa, that night again I slept in my car at yet another rest area. new mexico seems to have some of the nicest freeway rest areas around; only connecticut's rest areas seem to rival them[ along with the rest area close to dover in delaware where diane and I spent the night back during the fourth of july weekend- the first time I ever got away from that nasty god damn shelter for a few days; the second time I actually got a weekend pass during the 201 days I lived at that fucking CESSPOOL.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; TUESDAY,september 13, 2011- FINALLY I MADE IT INTO ALBUQUERQUE.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;that rest area was just 45 miles to the east of albuquerque; the place I had originally set my sights upon as my future place to call home. it took about 50 minutes in all to get to the lesbian and gay center in albuquerque; yet when I got there it was closed. what they actually have in ABQ as they call the city, is more of a ' vitural center'; that is a center online in which the members of said LGBTQ center meet once a week at different venues all over albuquerque;  upscale yuppie-style restaurants and sports brew pubs- things like that. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;albuquerque did not impress me much. rather it seemed to be everything that I was trying to escape from by leaving the east coast. it obvoiusly had its gangbangers by the looks of some of the los angeles style mexicans I saw driving low riders; the drivers in general seemed RUDE AND NEARLY AS MUCH IN A HURRY AS THEY ARE BACK IN NEW YORK AND CONNECTICUT.observing the women driving in their mercedes and BMW's; I very quickly got the impression that albuquerque is the yuppiedale of new mexico. just another big city where status symbols and what you do for a living is what life is all about.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;after taking some time to explore the city, back onto the I-25 freeway I got; this time headed southbound as I saw that sign reading 'LAS CRUCES-218{MILES}'. southbound I drove as the more green landscape surrounding albuquerque quickly turned to a more dry desert landscape made up of mesquite trees and creosote bushes. nevertheless onward I continued till I got to truth or consequences at just after sunset; T or C being a place I had also considered as a future home after my friend warren told me that his old friend he was in the US Navy with, bill, had moved to from albuquerque because it was more affordable to live. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;warren, meanwhile,who I was taking with on the cell phone until service cut out, was busy looking online to see what resources there were around there for gays. upon hearing that I had gotten back onto I-25 south and was now headed for las cruces, he told me ' I'm looking up my favorite word of all, GAY'. sure enough he found out that they had a place in las cruces[ which means ' The Crosses' in espanol` by the way]called the new mexico GLBTQ centers ; located at 1210 north main street in las cruces. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;that night I again picked out a nice rest area about 20 miles north of las cruces to stay in my car at; something I'd been doing all the way west in order to maximize my money and make it last. this expecially considering that gas was at about $3.99 a gallon back in connecticut and $3.74 in new jersey; the rest of the way from ohio west it was between $3.42 and $3.59 until I got to las cruces where I paid only $3.29 a gallon.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;wednesday, september 14. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I awoke the next morning to the bright southern new mexico sun shinning into my car. the overnight was for the most part very warm and in the mid to upper 60's. a huge thunderstorm bringing heavy rains did hit, though, sometime during the night at about 1 AM; making me thankful for having a ' roof over my head' ; my trusty honda accord 1996 that made it all the way out here despite my deepest fears that the timing belt may go at any moment. [ something I was also afraid of when I headed from western new york's town of bath; to denver in colorado last summer- hoping to call colorado home.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;after close to 200 miles of hardly anything between belen, near albuquerque; and las cruces-the exception being the small town of truth or consequences and , farther up, Socorro; seeing las cruces was a welcome sight. exiting the freeway I-25 at US-70, I turned right and headed to the first gas station I could stop at to get myself some coffee; a vallero convenience store and gas station. walking in and getting some coffee, I asked the woman clerk ' how do I get to north main street, please?'; at which time she said ' this is north main'. I then told her I was looking for 1210, at which time she said the place was at 2700-something and that by turning right and heading toward town, that was where it would more then likely be at.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;so I did just that and , sure enough, I found the new mexico GLBTQ center over by some car dealer's lot at the corner of chestnut and north main. walking into the center, I was impressed at how friendly the people were. especially after coming from new york city where I lived for the past seven months at a brooklyn shelter- what a pleasant change I told myself. this younger college student was working there as a volunteer that day; he being a student at the nearby new mexico state university where I am now online at after getting my student ID just yesterday. I'm enrolled to attend the dona~ana community college branch of NMSU in january; the start of the spring semester. this as a associate of arts major, something similar to liberal arts as  right now I can not make up my mind between the AS degree program in media arts/digital arts[ something that I had considered studying at jamestown community college/state university of new york-cattaraugus county campus in olean, new york while living in wellsville last spring, located 34 miles to the east in rural and very conservative republican voting allegany county.]&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;anyway, I met another transgender woman that night at the LGBTQ center and we became quick friends. she even invited me to her apartment she just moved into so that I could take a shower , my first shower in about 6 days mind you. that right away gave me a good impression of las cruces. yet still I hadn't made up my mind and wanted to see what silver city was like; a small town in grant county about 110 miles northwest of las cruces. I was trying to decide between truth or consequences, silver city, and las cruces as the perfect place to live.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/24283143-2711307489432248631?l=cheryloropal.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://cheryloropal.blogspot.com/feeds/2711307489432248631/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://cheryloropal.blogspot.com/2011/11/go-fucking-aggies.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24283143/posts/default/2711307489432248631'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24283143/posts/default/2711307489432248631'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://cheryloropal.blogspot.com/2011/11/go-fucking-aggies.html' title=''/><author><name>Cheryl</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10239724355224966337</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_9HXCFGtdR64/SYvGAT9Xz_I/AAAAAAAAAvs/lerMOD449Hk/S220/Cheryl+Jan+2009+open+mike-+Ms.+Poetry+Bitch.JPG'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24283143.post-7381099266900747723</id><published>2011-04-05T19:52:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2011-04-05T19:52:00.205-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='how the fuck did I get back east?'/><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;strong&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; I guess they do not have color featured here at the new york public library , midtown manhattan branch in the heart of " business city USA" . so how did I end up back east for the third time around? well that room for rent in littleton CO back in november panned out; all because of a fucking background check upon which an old case from my past life as " It" showed up; the christine larson harrassment/threatening arrest from west hartford CT back in 2003. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;the gay man whose condo it was in which he had a room went over the background check , one costing $79.95 online which must've went so far into detail that I could only imagine; which his future husband to be. needless to say, his future hubby saw what he thought was a " domestic violence charge" upon my former life's record and that did me in. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;refusing to then rent me the room which would have been like so close to arapahoe community college where I was all signed up to go in the spring semester to study creative writing in their AA degree program; I ended up moving out of that place in " repugnican-ville cowdale" kiowa, CO where I was rooming with that " silent type" named Jen. despite him giving me back the check, I added two and two and thought to myself " 48 miles one way to littleton from kiowa doe-fuck-ville[ 96 round trip] is way too far to travel to go to college. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;that and I missed life in denver, going to charlies-denver , an awesome gay bar which had the best monday night football games in the " outdoor smoking area" , actually a huge tent made of plastic and , later that night; the weekly karaoke. I also missed spending football sunday's at HER bar- a mostly lesbian bar on east colfax ave right close to charlie's and the center[ LGBT] at 1301 east colfax ave.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;being that it was not yet the middle of the month [ turned out that my food stamp case was never transferred over to elbert county, nor was the SSI/medical colorado supplement even done yet in denver county human services] , the DHS would NOT help me with finding a temporary place to live at the infamous aristocrat family motel run by the volunteers of america[ the same douchebags whom also run the sorry assed Institute for Community Living- a jackass of a women's shelter located at 200 tillary street here in brooklyn NY in the midst of " Da hood" between the 12th precinct of NYPD and ingersoll housing projects] . &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; the weather in denver turned suddenly, from the ohh so warm days we'd been having for so long to a winterly mix of sleet and snow; one which I did not really want to sleep out in the car out at the freeway rest area along I-70 near bennett that night in. needless to say, by the time I got to the catholic charities good samaritan house; they no longer had any more couchers and were sending people to the denver police station on cherokee by the US mint [ where they print the money]. so I drove there, meanwhile along the way calling that single women's shelter I had stayed at for the first six weeks in denver; the delores project on king street. they had no beds and also were referring people to the police station.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;upon getting to the denver PD , I learned that because I did not have a colorado state ID/driver's license yet, one which stated that I lived in denver county as well; they COULD NOT HELP ME OUT WITH A MOTEL VOUCHER. [ nothing against mexicans, etc. but being that so many of them have children, they automatically qualify for housing help. and, like DANBURY CT AND NEW YORK CITY'S BROOKLYN, DENVER SURELY HAS MORE THAT ITS SHARE. ]&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;so I got into the car, crying and driving all the way to the LGBT center which was due to close at 8 PM. savannah- the tall lightskinned black woman working there whom was so nice to me suggested two options; the first being the $29.95 motel called the valley inn motel along sheridan road close to the US rte 36 freeway. the other being to spend $10 to get into the all-night peep show booths and then, view lesbian porno all night until I fell asleep in the booth. [ sounds crazy, but.......?] &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; after passing the valley inn but worrying about what would happen if I totally ran out of money and could NOT get help from the CO DHS, I ended up taking the wrong road and landed way the fuck up past boulder. here I was, calling my friend james back in connecticut and crying over the phone; asking him if I should just give up on denver and return to connecticut? or stay and tough it out, sleeping in the cold car if need be? &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;needless to say I ended up first in broomfield, CO at a fucking all night wal mart filled with friendly women, something that I now miss dearly about colorado in general in this cold assed of cold assed cities called NEW YORK NEW YORK. A PLACE FULL OF THE MOST UPTIGHT, STUCK THE FUCK UP WOMEN AROUND, MORE SO THAN CONNECTICUT'S FAIRFIELD COUNTY. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;from there it was back down into denver as I tried really hard to make a decision as to whether to go? or to stay? I ended up taking one more trip through downtown denver, CRYING, and then getting up on I-70 east and going; worried about all my stuff in storage if my mother ever passed away and lot more.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/24283143-7381099266900747723?l=cheryloropal.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://cheryloropal.blogspot.com/feeds/7381099266900747723/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://cheryloropal.blogspot.com/2011/04/i-guess-they-do-not-have-color-featured.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24283143/posts/default/7381099266900747723'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24283143/posts/default/7381099266900747723'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://cheryloropal.blogspot.com/2011/04/i-guess-they-do-not-have-color-featured.html' title=''/><author><name>Cheryl</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10239724355224966337</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_9HXCFGtdR64/SYvGAT9Xz_I/AAAAAAAAAvs/lerMOD449Hk/S220/Cheryl+Jan+2009+open+mike-+Ms.+Poetry+Bitch.JPG'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24283143.post-8886664256385120035</id><published>2010-11-03T23:40:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-11-04T15:01:17.089-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='CASTRATION- IT&apos;S ALL OVER- THE MONKEY I WAS BORN AS IS DEAD'/><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;and so ,my fucking asshole of a roommate is now all pissed off at me , saying " you can't stay here because you did not pay the rent yet." originally I had said that , if everything went as planned, I would be moving out on nov. 4th ; as tonight I went to meet with the gay guy whom I am , hopefully , going to be renting a room from . thing is this, he wants to first do a background check , something I already knew he would based upon his asking for a copy of my driver's license / ID .&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;so what am I to do in the meantime? tonight at the littleton mc donalds I paid him , by money order, for the first month's rent ; $350 including all utilities as long as they average under the $120 / month they are now paying . [ he's figuring on the fact that I would be home all day and that may use more power . I'd agree of this possibility more based upon when I start arapahoe community college and may be up all night almost putting the final touches on either homework, or being that I'm enrolled in creative writing ; an essay that was due ]&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;meanwhile , here I am existing , barely , on $694 a month total income. being that I had to pay him up front , something that is hinging upon my successful background check clearance within the next 48 hours. that I do not have the address proof from the landlord [ him in this case who's renting me both a room and use of my own bathroom, share of all common areas ] may make things harder for me as far as trying to get the $200 security deposit help from arapahoe county dept of human services ; who will require this in order for them to help with the security .&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;and so here I am , waiting for approval, and in the meantime, getting asked by&lt;br /&gt;" cunthole" , my fucking bitch of a 38 year old roommate named Jen whom I sincerely have no better name right now for ; to leave the premises. she forgets how I RUSHED INTO THINGS SO THAT SHE , WELL AS MYSELF , WOULD BOTH AVOID BEING HOMELESS ; as I was sick of the god damn shelter lifestyle and she fearful of having to go to a shelter and give up her 12 year old cat , Timon` , or&lt;br /&gt;" moaney" for short because he meows a lot .&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;so now I am perplexed as to what to do , she pushing me out and me having to fucking wait to see if everything goes as planned and I get that room in littleton .  and truthfully , it would take her a while to evict me anyway , so what am I getting so worried about ? a few more days over the rent is due by the nov. 4th date- tomorrow/thursday , say till monday the 8th at the latest ; maybe not so bad .&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I don't want to hurry up and start packing all that soon in case I do not get this place. he did say that he's only concerned about what, if anything crime wise, has happened in the past three years. so the best thing I can do is just to ignore and stall this bitch named Jen - being that she wants and has wanted me out since two weeks after we moved in together. she was " expecting somebody quiet and drama free" she said ; all because she does NOT have the brains to understand what I meant in my craigslist ad " seeking roommate " by the words " emotionally intense" [  " EMOTIONALLY INTENSE AT TIMES" MEANS  THE SAME AS DRAMA QUEEN - YOU GOD DAMN  BRAIN-DEAD MORON OF AN IRISH PRINCESS TURNED FAT PILE OF ROTTEN PUMPKIN WASTE ON ANTI-DEPRESSANTS; AND  GOOD FOR NOTHING MORE THEN WATCHING CRIME DRAMAS ON TV AND WORKING WITH THE DEVELOPMENTALLY DISABLED FOR $12 FUCKING DOLLARS PER HOUR, PART TIME WITH NO BENEFITS TRAVELING ALL OVER SHITHOLE ELBERT AND DOUGLAS COUNTIES. ]&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;and so , I hope that everything goes well , I mean now I had to text message this guy whom was willing to rent the room to me and tell him this .&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;meanwhile, in other things , I did it. I self castrated my fucking god damn left over parts , those nasty shrunken but still refusing to die completely testicles left over from my former life as the biological " male" I was born as and automatically assigned to for " gender" at birth.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;how I did this? well I had been planning this for a while ever since I read the article in the online encyclopedia called WIKI ; the one titled " castration " that , after having to ask the librarians back at the david howe library in wellsville , NY to override their censoring filters installed on all their public access computers; I then downloaded  and printed out .&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;one of the tricks suggested was to use something called an " elasticator" , which is essentially a rubber band clamp which is often used to castrate biologically male farm animals . the trick used is to first wrap this band around the base of the testicles and then pull it tight till you effectively shut off the blood supply to the scrotum ; something they warned would be excruciatingly  painful at times but would definitely destroy the god damn things within 12 to 24 hours' time.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;the " balls" then will turn first blue, later on  completely black from a lack of blood supply and oxygen and wham- the fucking testicles die and a form of " dry gangrene" will set in ; causing them to eventually fall off .&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;after reading this article , I then went to the wellsville Kmart and , asking the clerk in the auto section where I could find those plastic pull-ties which are used to hold wires to pipes , I bought a plastic jar full of them for about $7.95 plus tax .&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;these I had stored and carried with me , saying that one day when I finally moved into a permanent place , I would then perform this off and on painful act of self-castration . I was not very happy with the fact that, even after 4 fucking years of chemical castration using the spironolactone - a commonly used androgen blocker which blocks the biological male hormones called androgen's and , in turn shuts off the production of testosterone in the testicles ; the resulting consequence being sterility and the death of both sperm and ugly body hair growth [ in all areas but the face area/beard - which it only reduces ] ; that I was still getting those disgusting erections from time to time and sometimes nearly daily.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;that and the disgusting feeling of these squishy things taking up unnecessary space between my legs and even preventing my pee from flowing out quickly like a woman's is supposed to .&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;and so , being prepared for the inevitable pain that was to come with those hydrocodone pills[ for pain] and the antibiotics I had from the dentist when I went the previous monday for a toothache [ which I never went back for after the pain ended] ; at about 4 PM on sunday october 24 during the broncos football game's halftime , I took those pull ties out from that container and proceeded to do my own " operation" , so to speak .&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;this damn well knowing that 1. I may need to go to the emergency room at the local hospital afterward once infection set in - something that was highly possible; and 2. there was a very good chance that, if I went to the ER , I would probably end up being committed to the psychiatric ward for " mental health observation" .&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;being that I was sick and god damn fucking tired of carrying around those two, useless bags of shit down there[ nor the god damn piece of shit  penis] that I had no use for anymore, being legally a woman, also that I could not afford the $3,000 plus needed to go down to trinidad , colorado to see Dr Marcy bowers [ now believed to have moved to San  Francisco CA where she still practices sex change operations] ; into my own hand I took matters.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;grabbing those pull ties out , I looked for the longest one which would fit the best. then I first tried to wrap one around the base of those disgusting , now mostly shrunken testicles ; which did not work very well. so, I then took two of them and, hooking them together , managed to slip the resulting loop around successfully on the third attempt ; at which time I both held the thing in place and fucking PULLED IT AS TIGHT AS I COULD ; SQUEEZING THE GOD DAMN SCROTUM AT THE BASE VERY TIGHTLY SO AS TO " CHOKE" OFF THE SUPPLY OF BLOOD  TO THE GOD DAMN TESTICLES .&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I then took another one of those plastic pull ties , this time just one single pull tie and, wrapping that one around the same base of the scrotum , pulled that mother fucker really tight till I again heard it snap into place . I then began to take enough of those hydrocone pain pills, well as those antibiotics to prepare for the pain and possible infection to set in .&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I went back to the broncos game, one which they were losing  and, doing my best to take my mind off the throbbing , off and on again pain spells by telling myself&lt;br /&gt;" this is for the best " , I made it through the rest of the fucking night without my asshole roommate , Jen , knowing a god damn thing as to what I was up to .&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;there was another football game on the radio online on WFAN-AM 660 from New York, NY . so I just laid down on my air mattress and passed the time listening to the next game , something that helped me to forget about the off and on pain which continued hard  for the first 6-7 hours, slightly subsiding before getting worse again untill the full 24 hour period was over.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;within 12 hours' time , those fucking testicles had turned black and were getting quite numb - the much desired result . all the while I prayed to the goddess of wiccan lore to get me through this and to a new realization of my true feminine self. THAT WORKED QUITE WELL . I did not wrap that pull tie around my " hose" because I knew that I absolutely had to still be able to pee when necessary. needless to say that the whole shaft was pushed inside behind the testicles- something that would later create problems.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;and so, by 4 PM on the next day, those fucking balls had literally inflated to about 5 times their usual, post hormone treatment size . the skin of the scrotum was now beginning to crumble apart from where the blood vessels had exploded through the skin surrounding those disgusting lumps of useless shit called testicles. blood was now pouring out into my panties stuffed with huge lumps of toilet tissue so as to sop up the blood from those now bloody testicles all black in color .&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;meanwhile , I stayed as silent as I could with the help of the many hydrocone pain pills I had been taking all through this experience , also with the help of those antibiotics like my friend, richard , back in bath new york had told me to take if I was to attempt this self castration ritual .&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;later on that night  at about 12 midnight , the pain and bleeding became so bad that it became obvious I would have to go to the emergency room at the nearest hospital . still I held out as best as I could , thinking that I was too tired to risk driving to the hospital ; and that if I were to have called the fucking Kiowa , CO ambulance , those rednecks would be sure to make sure that I was definitely committed to the mental ward . that , or maybe take me out on some rural dirt road and well ....." kill the fucking faggot trans-testicle bastard " just for the fun of it  while all their macho male fireman buddies cheered them on , revving their pick up trucks loud as they could ; whooping and hollering. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;looking online , I saw that the nearest hospital to fucking rural kiowa is over to the west in parker - 35 miles away  and called Sky Ridge Medical center . and so , taking more pain pills , I returned to bed and planned on going by myself the very next morning .  which I did, as I awoke before my asshole roommates' annoying alarm that she never shuts off just to annoy me ever the more every day.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;so , up by about 6:30 AM , I hurried to get myself all shaved and dressed , packed three days worth of clothing; then ate and drank my coffee and was out of the house before the bitch was even up. this being tuesday morning . I then drove west on SR 86 all the way to the I-25 freeway north , exiting at the exit for sky ridge hospital before then getting back on and deciding my best bet was to instead continue north to denver and go to denver health hospital .&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;which I did , stopping at burger king to eat two quick whopper jr. hamburgers before continuing on down west colfax to bannock st ; turning right to get to denver health at the corner of bannock and speer blvd.                   &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/24283143-8886664256385120035?l=cheryloropal.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://cheryloropal.blogspot.com/feeds/8886664256385120035/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://cheryloropal.blogspot.com/2010/11/and-so-my-fucking-asshole-of-roommate.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24283143/posts/default/8886664256385120035'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24283143/posts/default/8886664256385120035'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://cheryloropal.blogspot.com/2010/11/and-so-my-fucking-asshole-of-roommate.html' title=''/><author><name>Cheryl</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10239724355224966337</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_9HXCFGtdR64/SYvGAT9Xz_I/AAAAAAAAAvs/lerMOD449Hk/S220/Cheryl+Jan+2009+open+mike-+Ms.+Poetry+Bitch.JPG'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24283143.post-7719449246739299106</id><published>2010-10-20T17:41:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-11-04T15:05:57.622-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Is it okay for a woman to badmouth another'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='deserving woman like my roommate?'/><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;and so, onward goes the saga between " Ms. Cuntwipe" , my terriffic roommate named Jen , whom with there is NO CONVERSATION, and I . every fucking day it is like this , today for example , when I said in general " oh? so this is what that Tv show you like, ' sons of anarchy' is like? huh?

EXCUSE ME?? what part of " highly emotional" and "controversial, talkative" says anything about my being some quiet little churchmouse? ; which she definitely is.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;this fucking chick has few brains , if any at all. I don't even think that she can read on a 6th grade level , a trait typical of those whom like to watch, on TV, crime drama shows like CSI and NCIS .&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;and so , I wanted to place the ad on craigslist sunday night , but the fucking thing did not work because of " Ms. Paranoia's " firewall obviously. well yesterday , while in denver , I went to the denver public library , the main one on broadway and 14th ave . and I placed the ad , and when craigslist erased it due to their new&lt;br /&gt;" authentication software". I asked the librarian if I could stay on another half hour; in which time I got it done.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;needless to say, in less than an hour when I first got up to charlie's , a denver gay bar where I was fixing to watch football; this woman called me on my cell , kristi, saying that she had a room for rent and would rent it for less than the original $500 she was asking . she said she'd let me have it at $350, which was what I stated in my ad I could afford.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;she and I seem to be, so far, compatible . like me, she talks, she has no problem watching football. the best part is that she is in englewood, which is about a 15 min drive to littleton and arapahoe comm. college ; and within a half hour of downtown denver, the LGBT center, and all the east colfax gay bars.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have to go and see this place.

close knit townies set in their evangelical , fundamentalist- christian mentality ways.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;as for roommates? hell I think I may have been far better off living with some loudmouth lesbian -oriented football lovin' DYKE than Ms polly prissy panties&lt;br /&gt;" good girl" , jen. that or some politically charged feminist woman who'd love to both watch football [ maybe basketball, baseball, or hockey which I could learn to like;

me the highly outspoken " I don't give a fuck what y'all  mother fuckers think" type .&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;true, in some ways this chick's been nice to me , letting me use her fucking old computer [ a dell PC which I am on right now], but here I am expected to pay 1/2 of the fucking god damn cable bill of $60 a month , and here I can NOT even watch my NFL games because..........well, she's got to watch all her " cunty" shows; from asshole NCIS  government cop [ pig] bullshit to every god damn stupid show designed for the average brain dead american working class asshole .&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;and she surely seems to be very much all that, one of the " average, all american douchebags" whom are well-skilled, UNLIKE ME, at blending in with the status quo .  in other words, an average , heterosexual woman and a schmuck to the max at times.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;as if it is not bad enough to be over 45 miles away from Kiowa to the one place I have any of a half assed attempt at a social life- DENVER ; an hour and one half drive at the " go the god damn speed limit " pace that so many of these Coloradans seem to inefficiently drive at; I can't even watch many of my games unless she is NOT at home .&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;jen, a 38 year old woman whom wears very little, if any makeup and never any lipstick, has blond half about 6" below her neckline , and is slightly plus sized[ not sure why as it takes this fucking girl over 20 minutes to simply fucking eat a six-inch sub LMAO. much like cinderella the fucking little femme princess fauntleroy from the other side of the tracks ] ;

FROM MY SWEARING WHICH SHE ASSUMES IS DIRECTED AT HER [ BECAUSE SHE IS A " KNOW IT ALL " STUPID BITCH AT TIMES]; TO MY CONSTANT CRITICIZING OF EVERYTHING AND ANYTHING .&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I was hated by over half the women at that Delores project homeless shelter [ 1390 king st. Denver ] because of the way I am , yet liked by Linda and a few others there; many of whom who were just simply indifferent toward me and Linda whom often called me " sweetie" and one I wish that I had gotten her cell phone number from .&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;and I seem to be hated by most people whom consider themselves to be " normal" and well-adjusted , which may just describe Jen as long as she takes her fucking psychiatric medication [ anti-depressants ] ; something which I feel makes her MAJOR BORING AND WAY TOO FUCKING QUIET AS WELL AS UNABLE TO SHARE HER FEELINGS WITHOUT "SHUTTING DOWN"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;no, I really feel that I made a big fucking mistake , both by thinking that jen and I would be able to work out ; along with wanting to move away from Denver where I at least had some form of a social life , gay/lesbian bars to go to like Her Bar on East Colfax Ave [ close to charlies- a mostly gay men's country-western themed bar as well as the Center ] , the transgender chat on thursday evenings , womyns circle on tuesdays . AND YES, KIOWA BEING 48 MILES ONE WAY DRIVE TO LITTLETON'S ARAPAHOE COMMUNITY COLLEGE , MAIN CAMPUS - I THINK I MADE A HUGE MISTAKE .&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;there is NOTHING in Kiowa for me . it is a boring, buck fuck hick town full of ranchers and their wives/girlfriends , some of whom can be friendly like Sheryl and the other woman working at the Elbert county dept. of human services ; others whom see me as the " gay agenda" out to corrupt their impressionable young children - boys whom , like their rancher fathers, wear their cowboy hats; women whom play the role of subservient wife/girlfriend to their rancher and firemanly-man, super macho husbands/boyfriends hell bent on being the&lt;br /&gt;" All-American heroes" that are so typical of small town life all over America .&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;in many ways , it's like I left bath and wellsville new york only to return to another "Peyton Place" just like the one/s that I left back east in both Steuben and Allegany counties of western New York's Southern Tier. only difference is this; Kiowa's slightly more of a " live and let live" type of place so typical of  rural colorado.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;as for the local scenery ? well it is more like KANSAS than it is like the fucking Colorado of John Denver's Colorado rocky mountain high song. nothing but high rolling plains more typical of western Kansas but slightly more rolling [ more so as you head west on CO route 86 into Elizabeth- a slightly larger town which is growing at a rate and becoming more like the Southbury , Connecticut of Denver, Colorado's ex-urban area to the south of Parker, CO] , Ponderosa scrub pines mostly mixed with cottonwoods and other vegetation best suited to a semi-arid climate growing among high rolling sand hills similar to what can be found on New York's Long Island out in Suffolk County ; or down in Florida along US route 27 from gainesville to south of sebring and state route 40 between inverness/ocala and the oklawaha river's high sandy banks [ ocala national forest area]&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;the autumn foliage is at best lame when you compare it to what we had back in connecticut with its beautiful maples, white oaks, and other deciduous trees; or those fabulous hickories mixed with maples and red oaks in western north carolina and north georgia.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;up in the colorado mountains , the aspen leaves turn an awesome shade of yellow, very much bright and sometimes slightly reddish; which, when set among those always green ponderosa and blue spruce pines; is quite bitchen' to see in late september.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;but around here , it is mostly fucking cottonwoods , which turn yellow but are quite dull because of the drought conditions so typical to eastern colorado . AND, LIKE WESTERN KANSAS' SLIGHTLY ROLLING PLAINS , NOT MANY TREES GROW AROUND HERE EITHER.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;WITH THE EXCEPTION OF THE MOUNTAIN VIEWS IN THE DISTANCE FROM KIOWA OF 14,140 FOOT PIKES PEAK WHICH IS WEST OF COLORADO SPRINGS BY 15-20 MILES, and the other views of the rocky mountain's front range seen better from elizabeth as you drive west on CO-86 toward castle rock; it is fucking UGLY . the god damn beef cattle seemed to have chewed up every fucking tree seedling for miles and miles on end around here in elbert county, CO .&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;and so , I feel that I made a big fucking mistake and, perhaps , should have stayed the fuck closer to DENVER . denver is actually a very green city with many trees and an even more progressive and gay-friendly population to boot. much the same as boulder, golden, other more expensive to live places closer to denver ; even evergreen , CO up in the mountains is nicer, majorly more progressive, then this piss-hole called kiowa.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;OR MAYBE, JUST MAYBE ? I SHOULD HAVE STAYED BACK EAST IN CONNECTICUT - A PLACE WHICH , ACTUALLY , IS QUITE PROGRESSIVE IN MANY WAYS DESPITE NOT BEING AS FRIENDLY WHEN YOU FIRST GET THERE . [ NOT TRUE FOR ALL OF CONNECTICUT , AS OUT EAST BEYOND THE CONNECTICUT RIVER VALLEY AND AWAY FROM HARTFORD AND NEW HAVEN, CONNECTICUT CAN BE A LOT MORE SLOWER PACED.]&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Connecticut is so expensive , but maybe if I had moved out toward eastern Connecticut around Putnam or Hampton [ both small towns which are close enough in to still enjoy CT's liberal lifestyle ] ; and done the roommate idea ; I could have instead gone back to college at quinnebaug community college in danielson and lived within a 30 mile drive of the very much gay to the max PROVIDENCE, RHODE ISLAND .&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;this way I would have not had to worry about my Connecticut driver's license expiring in about 4 days, and the hassles of getting my fucking license here in colorado so soon.  I am told, however, that it should be just about as easy to keep the " F" on my new CO license as it originally was back in connecticut , to bring those papers from that doctor just in case ; of which all I could find was the one I coated in plastic even though I knew that I had saved all the other copies from both dr johnson, PhD; and the ones from ward carpenter, MD at callen lorde.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;as for Jen and I getting along ? that I do not fucking know. but I now can see why, just why , her fucking husband of 15 fucking long years [ Joe] simply said " I want a divorce" and then; got the fuck out of the situation.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I NEED A NICE DYKE TOMBOI TO TALK TO . NOT SOME PRISSY ASS HETEROSEXUAL BITCH WITH AN ATTITUDE THAT LEAVES YOU GUESSING WHERE YOU STAND LIKE JEN'S FUCKING ATTITUDE.                  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/24283143-7014878996687276557?l=cheryloropal.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://cheryloropal.blogspot.com/feeds/7014878996687276557/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://cheryloropal.blogspot.com/2010/10/and-so-one-fucking-week-with-jen-living.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24283143/posts/default/7014878996687276557'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24283143/posts/default/7014878996687276557'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://cheryloropal.blogspot.com/2010/10/and-so-one-fucking-week-with-jen-living.html' title=''/><author><name>Cheryl</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10239724355224966337</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_9HXCFGtdR64/SYvGAT9Xz_I/AAAAAAAAAvs/lerMOD449Hk/S220/Cheryl+Jan+2009+open+mike-+Ms.+Poetry+Bitch.JPG'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24283143.post-5758370237018619476</id><published>2010-10-07T17:44:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-11-04T15:07:08.586-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='REPUBLICAN  RIGHT WING SHITBIRD-VILLE KIOWA'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='COLORADO'/><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;and so I sometimes wonder if I made a big fucking mistake , both about moving to tiny kiowa from denver where I temporarily resided at the delores project shelter ; and more importantly; by moving in with this 38 year old jen as roommate . so far she is fucking way unpredictable  and often acts dumb as a dead tree stump like some country hillbilly . &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;she acts, at times, like she is fucking annoyed with me , yet she never says shit . and yes, she is impossible to have an intellegent conversation with ; kind of fucking dumb like some dumb blue collar woman from the sticks. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;so now I am wondering if I moved in too fast ? more later.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/24283143-5758370237018619476?l=cheryloropal.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://cheryloropal.blogspot.com/feeds/5758370237018619476/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://cheryloropal.blogspot.com/2010/10/and-so-i-sometimes-wonder-if-i-made-big.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24283143/posts/default/5758370237018619476'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24283143/posts/default/5758370237018619476'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://cheryloropal.blogspot.com/2010/10/and-so-i-sometimes-wonder-if-i-made-big.html' title=''/><author><name>Cheryl</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10239724355224966337</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_9HXCFGtdR64/SYvGAT9Xz_I/AAAAAAAAAvs/lerMOD449Hk/S220/Cheryl+Jan+2009+open+mike-+Ms.+Poetry+Bitch.JPG'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24283143.post-3388273067864679741</id><published>2010-10-02T15:01:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-11-04T15:13:56.880-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='to Redneck Colorado and &quot; Ms. Pillbox&quot;'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='from Bath'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='redneck new york USA'/><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;" I'm a redneck woman - not no high class broad -I'm just a product of my raising- I saw hey y'all and hee haw.

A. and hartford CT [ 80% shithole ghettoes ] . she works in elbert county and I would rather live someplace where I don't have to fight for a decent parking place , get up and move the fucking car by 8 AM  everytime the street needs sweeping by the city ; someplace where....ummm... like, " the deer and the antelope play" as that old song goes. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;and so , things I guess are looking up in some ways . later this afternoon after all the college shit I wanted to accomplish in one visit was done  , I went to the fucking denver county/colorado dept . of human services to see just why ; 1. my food stamp EBT benefits card has never been mailed, and 2. to see why I'm still on the fucking list at the samaritan house [corner of park and lawrence in denver across from the rescue mission and " crackhead square park" ] as a " non-resident- do not re-voucher" for getting a motel voucher when needed. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;turned out that is because I do not yet have a colorado ID/driver's license ; not that I could afford to pay well over $150 fucking dollars to get the god damn car registered here in colorado and my colorado license; not do I yet have a valid street address here in colorado. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;this morning I was , as usual, listening to the denver hard rock/metal/alternative rock station better known as KBPI . [ &lt;a href="http://www.kbpi.com/"&gt;www.kbpi.com&lt;/a&gt; ] they had on these advice lawyers discussing the merits and drawbacks of filing for bankruptcy versus the impossible task for many low income people like myself wallowing deep, financially speaking, in the shit-filled Long Island [ NY ] Sewage cesspool called CREDIT CARD DEBT. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;a cesspool which, like the real thing buried in many long island, NY and cape cod , MA backyards, seems to just keep " filling up with shit faster than the local cesspool pumper can clean it out.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;for those making $50,000 a year or more with only $10,000 debt, that lawyer from denver's custer &amp;amp; robison law firm said it may make more sense to pay it off by using debt consolidation services. but for somebody like me , or some working class schmuck whom toils away at burger king , or me on a disability income of only $694 a month ; with over $700 on two unpaid capital one credit cards [ plus another sears card under the former monkey name of " It" oropal having more than $4,000 as the balance ] ; bankrupcy may actually make fucking sense and be the better choice. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;unsure , but I know all too well that my now bad credit has fucked me out of a few housing opportunities , including renting an income based, subsidized apartment at dayspring apts in corning new york. a small city of 30,000 where I was to attend corning community college till I decided to get the fuck out of mostly redneck republican western new york and head for the west again. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;so who knows what is or will be best ? I'm getting to feel that going into bankruptcy may be the best option , as right now they can not " garnish" my wages cause I have none, but if I decided to get something part time at burger fuckhole or wal-fart ? then those credit card banker assholes would ride my paycheck to southern baptist hell and back with the amount they'd take out for " payback" . &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;as for college and whether I can do well this time around, with my testosterone levels about 4% which is what an average biological woman's is about ; I'm not sure . all I know is that the one thing I do well is not anything which most people consider to be a viable career ; I am great at WRITING . &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;I can see myself finishing up my first book titled Other side of gainesville , maybe eventually self-publishing it like my friend jenette has done with two of hers . and with this wonderful experience associated with being homeless and hopeless since late september of 2009 when I arrived at the end of my long cross country journey ; all the way from 434-C heritage village in southbury, CT to the pacific waves at surf, california [ near lompoc in santa barbara county ] ; maybe I could take all of my journal writings and publish a fucking book which will open the eyes of many so-called " patriotic " americans . &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;many of these so called " patriotic " republican-voting , christo-fascist morons whom are about as stupid and blind as blind sheep standing in a thunderstorm awaiting lightning to strike them dead.

well on sat night I got into a heated debate with this fat girl whom everybody seems to like [ except me whom sees her as a bitch in many ways] , Jennifer . the debate was about  if or if not it is illegal for a women to go out in any public place like a supermarket or park; wearing, in summer, only a sports' bra, shorts, and sandals . something which I often do just to annoy the more conservative so called " christian " prudes and " do the right thing for all " happy homemaker types. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;well she tried like fucking hell to win the fucking argument and see it the way that, according to her , "other people who believe in public decency " feel about the subject . needless to say this mother fucking fat ass bitch of a prissy ass popular girl simply refused to hear my end of things ; wanting me to see things the way of herself and " how other decent people feel" about this . &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;well.....she then got so upset that she walked away and warned me " and don't you follow me or I'll go tell the staff ." well you know me , I like to get MY SIDE OF THINGS ACROSS TO ASSHOLES LIKE HER WHOM FEEL THAT THERE IS ONLY ONE WAY OF DOING THINGS IN LIFE - THE WAY THAT DOES NOT " OFFEND " THE MORAL MAJORITY OF PEOPLE IN THIS BASS- ACKWARDS COUNTRY CALLED AMERICA. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;needless to say the staff , michele and that fucking hitler twat in mexican colored skin  , christine , both called me in to the fucking office so we could have a talk .

[ actually in allegany county it was majorly easier than it is here in  steuben ] &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;then, after all that trouble , they told me that , myself having tossed out that letter of discontinuance from allegany county , that since they " hadn't any proof that I was, indeed; a homeless person, they could NOT offer me the temporary housing that monday night. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;and so, after first checking out what was a solemn vigil on the village green after, on sunday in bath, NY, they had a double murder when a distraught young man stabbed his girlfriend and her 3 year old baby; it was  off back to the interstate 86 freeway rest area just west of the exit for hammondsport/bath /SR-54.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt; that was where I spent the night in my car . that goddess this time it was summer and not like back in late march when the reasonably mild rain had turned to wet snowflakes just past elmira/corning and I slept in the cold car as the overnight temps dropped down to about 20 F. by morning and that west snow turned to glaze ice. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;being that they told me to come back the very next day at about 9 AM , I came in at like 10:15 and it still took ALL FUCKING DAY NEARLY to even get things going . first, being that " allegany county disqualified me for temporary housing" they did not allow me to get that motel voucher. then, they referred me to arbor development's HIRT program , a temporary housing program for the [ supposedly ] " severly developmentally disabled" which I because of getting social security disabliity automatically qualified for. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;and so , I am now , for 30 days from tuesday june 22 till july 22, placed in a temporary apartment at a place called colonial lawns ; just off liberty street in bath. part of what I must do to qualify  for this is seek affordable housing within 30 days . &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;the other part is kind of major horseshit in a way , but then again I may be able to make it work for me and get what I WANT OUT OF IT ; to seek mental health treatment from the steuben county mental health services. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;and yes, just like back in allegany county with the ARA counseling center, I am sort of afraid that those sons of bitches will , like they always did; try and railroad me into getting caught in their web of psychiatric dogshit ; with their fucking god damn " medication" bullshit and their god damn mother fucking " day program". &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt; a program which may have some good things about it, but obviously will have the usual &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;" employment rediness skills " training designed to turn one into a shopping cart pushing, overmedicated " retard" working part time at "fuck-mart" [ wal mart LOL] or any other bullshit big box retail establishment that pays shit per hour [ $7.50} and treats its employees like pieces of mindless robotic garbage.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;a program which , more then likely, also offers the usual " social skills" training , so called " important people skills" which if I have not been willing to learn by now they surely can FORGET ABOUT TRYING TO MAKE ME LEARN THEM . ' HOW TO KISS ASS, MAKE FRIENDS , AND INFLUENCE PEOPLE' , WHAT DALE CARNEGIE SHOULD HAVE CALLED HIS USELESS TO REBELS LIKE MYSELF FUCKING BOOK. [ hey I am a lot like marliyn manson /brian warner , as in one whom will defy all so called conventional logic as to that christo-fascist ideology of " love thy neighbor as thyself " horseshit. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;and so we will see. what I'd like to get out of that whole mental health system is this; I need another disgnosis of being " learning disabled" , or ADHD . THIS FOR CORNING COMMUNITY COLLEGE WHERE I WILL BE ATTENDING IN THE FALL. I was admitted formally into their fine arts and design AS degree program for the fall of 2010 ; starting in late august sometime. they expect me to make a bunch of goals as to, how I plan to overcome the attitudes that made me homeless. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;and so, for somebody that is a free spirit and does not really believe in " goals" and especially living a " structured lifestyle" like many "8-5" monday to friday working people seem to abide by ; this will be a pain in the ass. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;but we can always start . &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;goal #1 . to eventually complete myself physically down there and get my cunt ; so as to make me better able to be a very happy lesbian. [ even if this means, considering that having the money to do the surgery is looking like a long way off; to literally tie one of those plastic binding straps around those disgusting lumps of parasital shit called " testicles" { now well shrunken and sterile, thank goddess :) } and then ; pull the god damn straps tight so as to choke off the blood flow and cause dry gangrene to set in ; at which time they will just simply fall the fuck off . ] &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;goal #2. to either graduate from community college, or if not, at least get what the fuck I can get out of that barack obama, " government sponsored grade A education"  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;I will come up with a lot more, and if they do NOT approve , then they can stick their god damn mental health bullshit up their mother fucking ass; cause this here nigga bitch aint playin' their shee-it now y'all . &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;    &lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;   &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/24283143-3001470428675074088?l=cheryloropal.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://cheryloropal.blogspot.com/feeds/3001470428675074088/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://cheryloropal.blogspot.com/2010/06/welcome-to-bath-new-york.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24283143/posts/default/3001470428675074088'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24283143/posts/default/3001470428675074088'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://cheryloropal.blogspot.com/2010/06/welcome-to-bath-new-york.html' title=''/><author><name>Cheryl</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10239724355224966337</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_9HXCFGtdR64/SYvGAT9Xz_I/AAAAAAAAAvs/lerMOD449Hk/S220/Cheryl+Jan+2009+open+mike-+Ms.+Poetry+Bitch.JPG'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24283143.post-5396294108047799667</id><published>2010-06-19T18:37:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-06-19T20:43:17.103-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='the women double breasted'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='wellsville NY where the men are men'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='and the sheep are afraid'/><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;that about describes it the best I guess . and so, because of not keeping up with making my expected " 8 landlord contacts per week " , the allegany county dept of social services had told me that my temporary housing stay was to be ending on june the 17th of 2010 . and I'll admit that I fucked up and slacked off , this for three reasons&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;reason # 1. I was waiting till I heard back from alfred state technical college here in alfred , right up the hill from the terra cotta coffee shop [ www.terracotta.com ]. I had applied back in april to three local area colleges, and was hoping to get admitted  to alfred state's  AAS  degree  program - entrepreneurship ; which is the foundation for learning all the ins and outs about how to start your own business; all the legal shit and how to write the perfect business plan so as to impress the bankers whom offer business loans/states which offer grants and/or low-interest loans [ like connecticut does through its state business development sponsored programs ]&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;and nope, I did not get in , as whatever I said about what I had done with my fucked up life in the years that I was not attending college; simply was not what they wanted to hear  from a prospective  non-traditional college  applicant .&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;reason # 2.  having believed that , if alfred were to accept me , that this fuckwad red fucking  neck  douchbag  of a landlord, dennis I believe was his name, would ACTUALLY CALL ME BACK. yeah, the same mother fucker with that squealy like a pig sounding voice whom lives exactly 1.7 miles up elm valley road / CR-12 near alfred; in this big white farmhouse surrounded by at least 4-5 mobile homes; his&lt;br /&gt;" trailer court" I'll assume.  yes,the same jerk-off homophobic bastard with the blondish hair half balding  whose place I went to see  twice [ second time anonymously when I filled out his shitty ass, very small to write in unless you're a doctor with MD handwriting " rental application but I am sure that " prickwad " was looking out the window and saw that connecticut tag on my honda accord ].&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;anyway, he told me to call back on it and this I did the very next day after going to see it the first time on sunday , may 9th at 3 PM ; twice in fact to both his cell number and home one.  but " landlord from hell ass-balls"  never even had the courtesy to both to call back not let me known anything ; and so, having looked at maybe  4 places between then [ too few for my DSS  contract ]  , when I saw the same fucking  place in the wellsville daily reporter&lt;br /&gt;[ www.wellsvilledailyreporter.com ] that SCUZWAD  had for rent , I then called  and did not say my name, at which time  " landlord cum-dick", better known as dennis' exact words were " go ahead and look at it , the applications are on the counter . "&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;just to make jerk-dick think it was not again me , I asked for the directions again; as the first thing every wise woman must learn  is how  to be a  " cunty " bitch  when  necessary. this especially when it comes to dealing with heterosexual MEN like this dennis guy whom are all about using their fucking lower brain to both think and urinate with; along with its use for fucking to produce more offspring that their wives must take care of 100% of the time while they are busy working or drinking beer ' round the bonfire. :)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; I then filled out his fucking " appplication for rentals" which had spaces so small only a snail or an MD could fucking write within the lines on it. but did I ever hear from the jerkoff even though I was one of the  only two applicants whom placed and left their applications upon the counter ? NOPE , OF COURSE NOT .&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; I AM SURE THAT HE HAD TO REMEMBER ME . THAT OR , FROM WHAT I SAW EARILER TODAY AS I DROVE PAST AT ABOUT 7 PM, HE FOUND THE " TENANT THAT BEST FIT HIS CRITERIA" ; AS IN SOMEBODY WHOM WORKS CONSTRUCTION, DRINKS BUDWEISER WHEN NOT AT WORK ALL THE TIME DESPITE HIS WIFE NAGGING HIM ABOUT NEVER DOING ANY HOUSEWORK OR CHILD CARE ; AND YES, IS HETEROSEXUAL , FUCKS HIS WIFE AND HAS MANY&lt;br /&gt;" LOVELY LITTLE RUGRATS " JUST TO PROVE HOW MANLY HE TRULY IS.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;YES, A REDNECK .&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;OR BETTER YET , AS MY OLD FRIEND DON MEYERS BACK IN FLORIDA WOULD CALL THEM ; HAVING LIVED NEAR CRAWFORDVILLE UP ON THE FLORIDA PANHANDLE CLOSE TO STATE CAPITOL TALLAHASSEE .&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;" SHIT-BIRDS" after all , don was a former electronics engineer whom worked for mc donnel douglas, martin marietta, and others down there in florida close to cape canaveral ; along with a big electronics corporation based in that grand old lady of the deep south itself, Tallahassee, FL [ situated among the rolling , red " georgia clay" strewn hills studded with slash pine , live oak, and mixed hardwood trees and perhaps one of few places to spot autumn foliage colors in the state of FLORIDA ].&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;don was both born and lived all over the state of florida as well as missouri , and being a former alcoholic , he had drank often in the crawfordville tavern ; a bar well known for , ummmm.............REBELS DRIVING PICK EM UP TRUCKS WITH CONFEDERATE BATTLE FLAGS FLYING UPON THEM . YES, REAL REDNECKS , BABY , SOUTHERN BORN AND SOUTHERN FRIED TO THE MAX.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;and he often told me this. " redneck is too nice a word for these brain dead, gun toting jackasses who can do  little more than go hunting, fishing, work hard with their hands, DRINK  SHOTS OF WHISKEY WHICH THEY WASH DOWN WITH THEIR CHEAP BEER, and yes; keep their wives and girlfriends barefoot in winter and pregnant in summer. and so I call then ' shit birds' because that best describes what they actually have for brains. "&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;and so , lately I've been thinking about old don with his very wise name which he called those pathetic, brain dead men and their unfortunate wives and girlfriends whom love them till they either beat the hell out of them.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;or, like somebody I just learned whom is staying at wellsville's america's best value motel in room #1, on SR -417 where I've been at since march 23, 2010 ; a felon recently released from a NY state prison whom both parole and social services is putting up had done; sodomized his wife with a baseball bat and literally ripped apart her rectum[ asshole] .&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;                                                          "SHIT-BIRDS"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;yeah, hollow headed country hillbilly mother fuckers whom have been known to have sex with their 8 year old daughters, or even their pit bull " sweethearts" they keep chained up in the backyard dog pen .&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;or, in the lesser degree, those like that dumb as a dead tree stump good old boy whom toni , a really nice and sweet small town girl of 19 whom works part time as a housekeeper at america's best value motel; is supposedly engaged to and really seems to see me as the " abominable tranny snow bitch" that came to&lt;br /&gt;" wholesome" allegany county new york to destroy life as they all knew it .&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;SHITBIRDS, REDNECKS, OR WHATEVER YOU WANT TO CALL THEM, THEY ARE AN " INTERESTING BREED" OF SUBSTANDARD HUMAN BEING WHEN IT COMES TO BEING ABLE TO MAKE A RATIONAL DECISION ABOUT ANYTHING THEY DO NOT SIMPLY UNDERSTAND .&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;AND BOTH WELLSVILLE , AND MOST OF ALLEGANY COUNTY NEW YORK SEEMS TO BE FULL OF THEM . even the much more intelligent " christians" tend to be about as understanding of diversity as mnay of these hillbillies are .&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;not to knock the farmer , whom I hold a deep seated respect for ; as not many want to work hard as fuck and then some seven days per week in all kinds of weather including the three feet of snow on the ground.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;which brings me to reason # 3 . I was just so fucking depressed and seriously about to strongly consider either taking a fucking rope and hanging myself from some god damn tree ; or listening to those mental health mother fuckers , going on their god damn " medication " horseshit  and then; taking the whole bottle.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;and while much of this deep depression was attributed toward what a mother fucker of a hassle it has been to even find a place whose landlord will rent to me ; a good part of it has been based upon the realization that I WILL NEVER MAKE MANY FRIENDS HERE IN RURAL WELLSVILLE , NEW YORK.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; SO MUCH FOR GRETCHEN WILSON AND HER SONG " REDNECK WOMAN" . I JUST DO NOT HAVE WHAT IT TAKES TO BE ONE [ NOR IF I WENT BACK TO BEING " IT" , WOULD I HAVE WHAT IT TAKES TO BE A DUMB AS A DEAD TREE STUMP BASTARD LIKE TONI'S FIANCEE` ]&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; and so, as of monday the 21st of june , the first day of summer solstice , I will be once again homeless.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;but now for the awesome part , something which lifted my spirits this past friday when I got the letter . I HAVE BEEN FORMALLY ADMITTED TO THE STATE UNIVERSITY OF NEW YORK'S CORNING COMMUNITY COLLEGE IN CORNING , NY . THIS TO THEIR ASSOCIATE OF ARTS AND SCIENCE DEGREE PROGRAM CALLED " FINE AND STUDIO ARTS"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;and so , reason number 1 was a damn good reason to not be in any hurry to, in the allegany dept. of social services own fancy wording, " accept any  offer of suitable housing" that was offered to me by any landlord. i did not even know where I was going to be accepted and to what college yet ; having originally applied to #1. alfred state SUNY tech[ 12.5 miles from america's best value motel in wellsville, NY] ; #2. jamestown community college at cattaraugus county in olean, NY [  32.5 miles from tops supermarket on bolivar road / SR-417 near downtown wellsville] ; or #3 corning community college in corning, NY [ which is at least 45 miles from alfred , NY via hornell , and something like 53.5 miles from the motel in wellsville.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;WHAT REASON THEN, DO I HAVE TO EVEN WANT TO STAY IN ALLEGANY COUNTY, NEW YORK ; BESIDES THE BEAUTIFUL SCENERY AND SLOWER PACE OF LIFE ?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; AM I REALLY GOING TO HAVE ANYTHING IN COMMON WITH HOUSEWIVES MY AGE MARRIED TO HARD WORKING GOOD OLD BOYS WHO DRIVE FOUR WHEEL DRIVE PICK UP TRUCKS LIKE DODGE RAMS AND FORD&lt;br /&gt;F-150/250/350's ?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;perhaps I would have as much in common with them as I did with those yuppie homemaker mommies back in southbury CT , chico, CA , or westchester county , NY .&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; surely I can say " YEEE HAWW" as well if not better then any of them can . and yes, to some extent I actually like country western music ; not all of it but some of it. I love george strait , gretchen wilson , and yes, especially THE DIXIE CHICKS . and lady antibellum is okay , as well as miranda lambert with her awesome song titled " white liar"&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;and yes, I love cruising the fucking back roads out in the country on a moonlit night just like any of those good old girls would. not that stuben county NY lacks that same country atmosphere just west, south, and north of corning ; as they say down in the florida panhandle in the words of former florida state university coach , Bobby Bowden ; " THEY SHO DO NOW IN OLE STEW-BEN COUNTY , NEW YORK . SHO DO GOT SOME COUNTRY ROADS AND ALL THAT SHEE-IT NOW. "&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; but , much like leon county, florida which has its tallahassee, now a decent sized with neary 200,000 population , stuben county, NY has its corning . yes, the glass museum and factory , the corning corporation which has to be one of the largest employers in western NY's southern tier , many art galleries and coffee shops, and more.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; in nearby elmira it is said that they've even got a lesbian and gay bar which is very killer awesome. not sure as to what smaller corning has to offer in the LGBT scene, but it may have something .&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;all allegany county , on the other hand, has to offer for cultural offerings is the wellsville arts center , terra cotta coffee house here in alfred ; and little more except for , possiblly, an art gallery in angelica .&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;wellsville is best known for many bars catering to both the redneck assholes in pick up trucks  and the older bikers this area is full of . there are some excellent theatre and musical productions held downstairs at the David A Howe library;but that is about it . in fact there aren't even any nearby state parks and only oner state forest to go hiking in , providing that you dodge the fucking mudholes along the cross country ski trails dug up by , you guessed it, REDNECK MORONS DRIVING FOUR WHEEL DRIVE " QUADS" , OR ALL TERRAIN VEHICLES .&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;and so , wellsville new york, where the men are men , the women double breasted , barefoot in winter and pregnant nearly every summer ; and the sheep [ lesbians, gays,bisexuals,transgender] are afraid to come out of the closet and just be themselves.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;the only thing besides my two friends , ashley and walt and their toddler , matthew, and some of the younger folks at the wellsville open mike at wellsville arts , I will miss is not much besides deb at that motel, the manager and her granddaughter, trish .                                &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/24283143-5396294108047799667?l=cheryloropal.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://cheryloropal.blogspot.com/feeds/5396294108047799667/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://cheryloropal.blogspot.com/2010/06/that-about-describes-it-best-i-guess.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24283143/posts/default/5396294108047799667'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24283143/posts/default/5396294108047799667'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://cheryloropal.blogspot.com/2010/06/that-about-describes-it-best-i-guess.html' title=''/><author><name>Cheryl</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10239724355224966337</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_9HXCFGtdR64/SYvGAT9Xz_I/AAAAAAAAAvs/lerMOD449Hk/S220/Cheryl+Jan+2009+open+mike-+Ms.+Poetry+Bitch.JPG'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24283143.post-9162401228000094319</id><published>2010-05-28T13:46:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-06-06T14:22:20.623-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='life in wellsville'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='redneck new york USA'/><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;and so , life in wellsville NY . I applied for a mobile home in a trailer park named level acres, a place formerly known to be full of redneck assholes and dope dealers , but now being cleaned up by the new landlord. I learned of this place from my new neighbors at the america's best value motel in wellsville, NY ; ashley and walt; a younger couple with two kids[ and one on the way ] whom recently moved up from south carolina in the greenville area which is up in the applachian mountain foothills . they both are very nice as well as being okay with my being a transwoman . this unlike so many of the local fucking rednecks living around here in allegany county's wellsville NY and over the PA state line in a town called genesee, PA. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;sunday june 6 &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;and so , the mobile in that trailer park? I never heard back from that fucking skinny ass little twitbox whom is the office manager there. who the fuck knows why , either ? I joined up. but cancelled after the " free week" , this people search service online ; mostly so that I could look myself up under my now legal name , cheryl oropal, as well as " It" and see just exactly what these mostly fuckhead landlords are looking up when they run my background check . &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;the results? well I could find NO LINK BETWEEN THE THE TWO NAMES . and so , I am semi-relieved to know this ; sort of anyway . under the former name of " It" , I had something like a total of 12 convictions for this and that ; everything from that hit and run with injuries back in 1988 in daytona beach florida; to even those charges[ breach of peace and filing false statement]  brought about by a GOD DAMN CORRUPT POLICE FORCE BETTER KNOWN AS THE SOUTHBURY , CONNECTICUT POLICE DEPARTMENT . THIS WHEN CONNECTICUT STATE POLICE " SGT NAZI" , KEN KRAMER , WAS THE HEAD HONCHO IN CHARGE OF THESE COPS WHOM WERE MOSTLY A BUNCH OF REDNECK LOSERS. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;this after they sadly failed to do the investigation the correct , new york city police department way and instead chose to side with the younger pot dealers whom brutally assalted me [ back as the " M" creature ] ; cody labrie and david eisenbach. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;IN A SMALL TOWN , IT PAYS TO BE " ONE OF THEM" . &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;well that was then and this is now. here I am in one of the biggest  redneck fuckholes of new york state; a place called "wellsville 14895" located about 30 miles east of olean [ ole-eey-ann] and 80 SW of buffalo , NY. it has a population of about 9,000 people, a kmart , mc donalds, burger king , fashion bug, tops/giant IGA/save a lot supermarkets , monroe auto service center , about 4-5 gas stations , a hospital; and a somewhat thriving historic main street with the wellsville twin movie theater [ 1930's style] , dragon house chinese restaurant, and the famous place called " texas hot" serving the best god damn hotdog y'all ever had this side of the mason dixon line. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;it also features a coffee house better known as the wellsville arts center [ &lt;a href="http://www.wellsvilleartscenter.org/"&gt;www.wellsvilleartscenter.org&lt;/a&gt; ] , which hosts a , GAG ME TO THE MAX , weekly open mike billed as a " FAMILY FRIENDLY VENUE" [ choke me with a zircon encrusted spoon , I am sure ] . well at first it seemed like I was reasonably well-recieved at their weekly open mike night held a 7 Pm till about 10 every fucking wednesday . &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;I was not just the ONLY fucking POET reading there , this open mike catering to nearly all musicians , many of whom either do old rock and roll , biker-hippie shit like the grateful dead, ZZ top, stuff from the movie " easy rider " [ 1969] ; or, you guessed it ; COUNTRY MUSIC . &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;I actually liked country somewhat till I moved to this fucking god and devil forsaken place; referring to many of the locals, redneck jerk-asses whom drive huge pick-em-up , four wheel drive trucks like the dodge ram and ford F-150/F-250/F-350 series. vehicles generally designed for the many hard working men whom, around here " work hard for a dollar" doing farm work , construction on the natural gas wells , or maybe at alstom or dresser -rand.  [ and yes, the &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;" redneck women" whom drive big trucks , " love" and perfume their pussies up to the limit for their loyal man { whose probably out fucking every other younger woman around town he meets during his after work , volunteer fireman &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;" duties" sort of like old gearge strait in his song titled " the fireman" . LOL } while taking care of his 3-5 kids who'd go barefoot in winter and foodless , homeless if it were not for the " gracious" social services system here in allegany county , NY ; the state's 2nd poorest county by the way. ] &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;but now I swear that I am getting to HATE FUCKING COUNTRY MUSIC .

BUT.......the " wellsville , narrow minded parental brigade" seems to have had its way , as I was told just last week , because of the very few swearwords I used in two of my older poems ; that I must " tone it down as they had many e-mail complaints and it is a FAMILY ATMOSPHERE with many children present . &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;first of all , and this I told him, the owner of wellsville arts who is an aging hippie out of the new york city area ; THERE WERE NO CHILDREN PRESENT AT ALL THAT NIGHT . turns out he meant TEENAGERS BETWEEN 14-18 YEARS OF AGE - HARDLY WHAT I WOULD FUCKING CALL " CHILDREN" . &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;HERE IS THE PROBLEM .

I have been once again considering either selling avon or mary kay, but not really sure if that is the way&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/24283143-3329895779290211823?l=cheryloropal.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://cheryloropal.blogspot.com/feeds/3329895779290211823/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://cheryloropal.blogspot.com/2010/05/well.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24283143/posts/default/3329895779290211823'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24283143/posts/default/3329895779290211823'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://cheryloropal.blogspot.com/2010/05/well.html' title=''/><author><name>Cheryl</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10239724355224966337</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_9HXCFGtdR64/SYvGAT9Xz_I/AAAAAAAAAvs/lerMOD449Hk/S220/Cheryl+Jan+2009+open+mike-+Ms.+Poetry+Bitch.JPG'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24283143.post-8724713268369017238</id><published>2010-05-10T15:14:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2010-05-10T16:07:41.971-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='IS LIFE REALLY WORTH LIVING ?

[ besides my now dead brother's former girlfriend of 10 years, andrea kolodziev,{ and her bitch " princess, ashley} the god damn bitch that suprised him with her " little love child" and sucked his bank account dry like a leach.] ; that is.  and if they are, I wonder what they are thinking ?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt; I've had one fan so far , this god damn &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt; born again " christian" douchbag whom critized me for saying all those , in his words , " cusswords" that children and women may read on my blog. ISN'T IT FUNNY HOW THESE ASSHOLES THAT CALL THEMSELVES " CHRISTIANS" SEEM TO BE BAPTIST HELL BENT ON FORCING THEIR SUPPOSEDLY MORAL BULLSHIT ON EVERYBODY THEY DO NOT AGREE WITH ? &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;on the other hand , I must wonder who else is out there reading this blog , possibly relating to all this anger I have been spewing . maybe some awesome bi-dyke woman who would surely be more then worth getting to know better. [ e-mail me at : &lt;a href="mailto:trannilesbian69@gmail"&gt;trannilesbian69@gmail&lt;/a&gt; anytime , sweetie . :) as I could use a good hiking partner :) ] &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;anyway, so  like I said last week, " one step foward and 13 steps back ". seems to be the story of my often worthless , shitty ass life . and so, today I got this letter from the NY state dept of social services telling me that I do qualify  for food stamp benefits , based upon paying $ 508.40 month rent and that I am " staying at motel" . thing is all I will be getting is fucking $ 132 a month . THAT IS SHIT . IN CONNECTICUT I RECIEVED $200 IN F.S. PER MONTH BASED UPON " PAYING $470 A MONTH RENT PLUS UTILITIES ; SAME AS WHAT MY GIRLFRIEND , DEBBY , NOW LIVING IN HER SECTION 8 FUNDED 2 BR APT IN TAOS , NEW MEXICO ; IS GETTING OUT WEST THERE . &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;and so, I fucking figured out that this comes to ONLY $ 33 per week for food . THAT SUCKS ASS ! AND HERE I THOUGHT THAT FUCKING NEW YORK WAS SO GOD DAMN MOTHER FUCKING WONDERFUL ?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;in other things , well I drove all the way down to the city [ NewYork,NY ] on friday , and what a fucking long god damn ride it was.  starting out on andover road/ SR 417 where I am temporarily living at the motel across from alstom air preheater company ; I headed toward corning ; passing through many small towns including one in stuben county which had many amish people living in it. from there I got onto US 15 north and then  onto freeway I - 86 east to binghamton , NY; where I picked up I-81 south toward scranton , PA; then south on I-381 to I-80 and then headed into new jersey [the part of which lived up to its motto, " garden state " ] . I then went all the way into the shitter , more urban part of NJ  , exiting onto US 46 east at exit 53  , then onto NJ route 3 all the way to the mother fucking holland tunnel ; at which point it was about 3:30 Pm and fuck , the traffic got bad as hell . &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;what a mother fucking tiresome long ride of over 300 miles , and here I thought that I was not gonna get to callen lorde at 356 west 18th st by 4:30 PM when my appt with ward carpenter was at . well , luck had it that I did , and yes, thought I found a nice, close by parking spot which later turned out to be a " no parking between 8 Am to 6 Pm  monday-friday" zone . yeah, a ticket and $65 at that ; which I am not gonna be able to pay for the next few months at least ; as I am strapped for money and only anticipate things getting far worse before they even get halfway better. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;otherwise , trying hard to focus on the good things , the state univ. of NY got my application and now it's the waiting game to see if I get accepted into alfred SUNY tech . which , by the way , was close to where I'd looked at a 3 BR/1 BA mobile home this sunday [ yesterday] ; $350 per month plus $350 security deposit is what this guy wanted to move in ; utilities would be extra every month , of which both stove and heat run on propane gas , which could be fucking majorly expensive; along with the electric - national grid power co. . but the fucker has roommate potentials; as with alfred state tech [ which I'm hoping to get into] and alfred university- a private liberal arts college [ for mostly kids from wealthier families whom stay right there in campus apts ] right close by [ 7 miles ] ; it will not be too hard to find somebody to help with expenses . &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt; whether I'd get along with somebody else ? that's another story , as I do not even see myself having the potential for making friends around here ; this area being realitively conservative and rural and having mostly married heterosexual ; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;" dick fucks chick and they have many rugrats"  types of people . &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;BUT I WANTED TO BE OUT IN THE COUNTRY , RIGHT ?  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;ANYWAY , later on while in NY city , I went to the nuyorican poets cafe , $10 cover charge at the door to see one of the USA and the world's best poetry slams around held every friday night . in some ways , despite the frustration of city life and how it can be next to impossible to live there if you have a car, that plus the awfully high rents and how every body seems afraid ot talk to people they do not know because of crime, sexual assault fears ; new york and san francisco have one good thing about them. DIVERSITY HONEY . they are places where lesbians , transexuals ,  goths and freaks of all sorts , whatever you are , all seem to fit in by standing out. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;I met this really cool poet at nuyorican , Ra,  a guy whom works setting up audio systems for his company ; a great union job by the way . he can afford to lve anyplace he wishes . anyway , we smoked some herb and he later even treated me to an early morning brunch ; something you can do only in new york, NY or S.F. ; maybe orlando FL or miami and L.A. of course [ if you have a car ] so it was cool    &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/24283143-8724713268369017238?l=cheryloropal.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://cheryloropal.blogspot.com/feeds/8724713268369017238/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://cheryloropal.blogspot.com/2010/05/i-often-wonder-as-to-if-anybody-out.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24283143/posts/default/8724713268369017238'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24283143/posts/default/8724713268369017238'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://cheryloropal.blogspot.com/2010/05/i-often-wonder-as-to-if-anybody-out.html' title=''/><author><name>Cheryl</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10239724355224966337</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_9HXCFGtdR64/SYvGAT9Xz_I/AAAAAAAAAvs/lerMOD449Hk/S220/Cheryl+Jan+2009+open+mike-+Ms.+Poetry+Bitch.JPG'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24283143.post-7167851242585732184</id><published>2010-05-06T13:28:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-11-04T15:32:14.466-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='RURAL MAY BE AWESOME- BUT DISCRIMINATION FROM LANDLORDS IS COMMON HERE'/><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;I wish I knew the mother fucking landlord's name that I talked to last night  at 585-268-7236, because I would warn everybody about this DISCRIMINATORY FUCKING DICKHEAD. where do I begin ? well I was about to leave to go to the awesome wellsville open mike they have here at the wellsville arts center [ &lt;a href="http://www.wellsvilleartscenter.org/"&gt;www.wellsvilleartscenter.org&lt;/a&gt; ] , and this mother fucker was asking me every kind of question he could ; from where do I /what do I work at / do; to how many references I have from prior rentals. this to which I said " none" as I never really rented except twice under " It" oropal - something of course I do not put down as that  buck fuck ugly "monkey" name I was assigned at birth based upon a pile of fleshly shit I was unfortunately CURSED with and I am working hard to try and forget about to the point that I crossed out that former " gorrilla name" on my original GED diploma. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;well it ended up that this god damn mother fucker of a penis brain had then refused to even show me the place ; saying over the phone that he[ his own words] " had plenty of guys looking that were working ." WELL FUCK YOU THEN" IS WHAT I BOTH FELT AND SHOULD HAVE SAID TO HIM ; WITH THE EXTRA WORDS " YOU DICKHEAD ". I mean what a god damn asshole  , especially for the 2 BR " house trailer" which was a 10 ft by 60 ft place " out in the woods"  as he described it for just $350 a month plus utilities ; $700 to move in which the allegany social services and ACCORD would have helped me out with providing the place was " livable" . BY THE WAY " MR. DICKHEAD " SOUNDED , IT IS MORE THEN LIKELY A PIECE OF RAT INFESTED SHIT . &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt; and so , I could have gotten to the wellsville open mike much eariler rather then waste over 15 mins of my time dealing with " Mr dick-skull " , the LANDLORD FROM FUCKING SOUTHERN BAPTIST HOLY HELL . I bet when I showed up , this fuckwad of a penile implant would have done about the same shit as that guy with the place for rent up in caneadea; which by the way, is still up for rent and now $320 instead of $295 . turns out he is a roofing company owner with his home teck industries[ &lt;a href="http://www.hometeck.com/"&gt;www.hometeck.com&lt;/a&gt; ]  FUCKWAD # 1[ BIGOT HOMOPHOBE] and FUCKWAD #2[ DICKHEAD TO THE MAX] . &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;anyway , otherwise last night was a blast at the wellsville open mike. I read two poems I had just written, one last week titled " WHERE IS MY AMERICAN DREAM ? " , about all the bullshit that I've been going through for the past six months plus in dealing with trying to find a place to live ; from the lincoln and lane county housing authority in oregon ; to here in western new york state . that and all the bullshit one must go through just to apply for an $8.00 an hour, retail shit job at either Kmart or payless shoes. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;the second one, " lesbian? or not? ", was more toned down , and asked the question that I have been wondering. it is possible to be a transsexual lesbian? [ actually if you were born physically " male" and thought that you were " straight" , as in sexually attracted to women ; then once you cross over the line and come out as a transsexual female and &lt;em&gt;are still attracted to &lt;/em&gt;women ; you become a DYKE, or LESBIAN. ]  it is frustrating, as I surely am still , perhaps much more so , attracted to women ; like this awefully  cuter then cute, feminist boi looking  20-something librarian whom works here at wellsville library as well as the one in olean who I'm not sure if she is or not :) but am wondering as she's so awesome . yet those buck fuck ugly " leftovers" down there seem to get in the way of what I'd really love to have in my life ; as in an awesome killer parnership with  a compatable lesbian . maybe I need to find a nice bi-dyke woman ???? &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;otherwise , we had this huge thunderstorm last night and I went out for a drive down a few country roads , real COUNTRY ROADS NOT LIKE THOSE OVERTRAVELLED THINGS WE HAD BACK IN " YUPPIE-NECTICUT" . I thought about the nice things in life for once, the SIMPLE PLEASURES ONLY A COUNTRY GAL COULD NOT FIND BORING [ but may find even more enjoyable sharing them with a special guy if they are heterosexually inclined , or in my case ,  a nice " boi" , or dyke :) ]. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt; tomorrow I make the long , 5 and 1/2 hour drive into new york city to my lesbian and gay clinic where I've been recieving my hormones . I must go , or else they will stop prescribing them for me and I'd DEFINITELY MUCH RATHER BE DEAD THAN GO BACK TO THAT " MONKEY " CREATURE . I like how I now can get along with women so much better and how I now see most  STRAIGHT MEN as the fucking dicks they truly are . &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;it should be interesting to see NY city for the first time in over a year , as well as to see my endocrinologist , ward , or dr carpenter , MD . truthfully I am slightly worried , and I think I may have to find a closer place . but for now I will go .         &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/24283143-7167851242585732184?l=cheryloropal.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://cheryloropal.blogspot.com/feeds/7167851242585732184/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://cheryloropal.blogspot.com/2010/05/i-wish-i-knew-mother-fucking-landlords.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24283143/posts/default/7167851242585732184'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24283143/posts/default/7167851242585732184'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://cheryloropal.blogspot.com/2010/05/i-wish-i-knew-mother-fucking-landlords.html' title=''/><author><name>Cheryl</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10239724355224966337</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_9HXCFGtdR64/SYvGAT9Xz_I/AAAAAAAAAvs/lerMOD449Hk/S220/Cheryl+Jan+2009+open+mike-+Ms.+Poetry+Bitch.JPG'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24283143.post-8719268469267252415</id><published>2010-04-30T12:58:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-11-04T15:34:00.832-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='OLEAN'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='NEW YORK- THE BIG TOWN WITH THE &quot; BIG PIG&quot; - WPIG- COUNTRY MUSIC'/><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;div&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;so here I am today in olean, NY , which ' round here cowgrrl, is what locals call the " big city" not that I miss either the fucking suburbs or the big city; as both new york, san francisco, sacramento, etc. are nice places to visit; but they suck if you aint one of the " chosen yuppies" . speak of which, I have to either drive all the way down to manhattan , NY city next friday , or find out how much the trailways bus costs. if it is less than the estimated 2-1/2 tanks of gas @ about $35 each tank, then it may just be well worth it. that and the stress of driving with all those city driving assholes; something we don't see too much of up thisy here part of lil' ol' new york state. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;and so, yesterday I spoke with the person whom would have been my landlord had things worked out right . he said he has another mobile home, this one next to his folks' home on the hill right across from the original , 2 BR one; which, by the way , had its one drawback; the fucking parking situation . &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;you would have to either, 1. stop your car on the somewhat well travelled county road and back up , which I'd recommend doing like the truck driver's do with your emergency flashers on. the other way would be to fucking pull in,  but then you'd have to back out onto that fucking county road ; which during the day, while  not nearly as busy as old field road in southbury, CT or newtown's castle hill rd. ; but has the same kind of &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;" rural road driver mentality" in the sense that both the newer yuppies now coming into the olean " metropolitan" area as well as the fucking young buck REDNECKS with dicks so long they serve as their " central lower MALE brains" ; all go way too fucking fast. this even though I have to say that, for the most part, people ' round here seem to obey the posted speed limits because , 1. they aint all that much in a hurry to do the half a million things they've got to do [ unlike those busy all the time breeders down in southbury and newtown CT ] ; and 2. the new york state police around these parts are highly " ticket eager" and love to write tickets for anything they can get somebody on. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;and so, looks like I will be staying at the best value motel in wellsville for [ hopefully if the money does not run out before then ] another month or so; as I aint too thrilled to "accept the first offer of a &lt;em&gt;suitable&lt;/em&gt; apartment" like the fucking social services and ACCORD corpopration [ whom works with the DSS to help the homeless find " suitable" places]  expects me to do. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;

the younger landlord's a blues musician ; this I just learned today from his mom , a really super nice country lady with whom I had a awesomely long talk with over the phone[ he's on his way to st louis to do a few gigs, and he plays all over the world in places like germany and shit ] the place, I am told, should be ready in just a few weeks , he will resume work soon as he gets back in town. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;thing is, though , it is located just about 6.5 miles north of what they call the " five mile" in allegany NY ; and just 10.5 miles from olean [ pronounced " O-lee-ann" ] ; actually about 12 miles from jamestown community college's cattaraugus co. campus ; one of the two colleges I have recently applied to along with alfred state tech college in alfred. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt; so things may be looking up , and I hope to fucking hell I get this place. this is what I came up to this part of new york state for , not to have to live in some " buck fuck" apartment around a bunch of neighbors; some of whom may be nice people; but others whom may be potential assholes about the slightest thing I may do which they do not approve of. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/24283143-2979973210170694931?l=cheryloropal.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://cheryloropal.blogspot.com/feeds/2979973210170694931/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://cheryloropal.blogspot.com/2010/04/so-here-i-still-am-in-wellsville-ny.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24283143/posts/default/2979973210170694931'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24283143/posts/default/2979973210170694931'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://cheryloropal.blogspot.com/2010/04/so-here-i-still-am-in-wellsville-ny.html' title=''/><author><name>Cheryl</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10239724355224966337</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_9HXCFGtdR64/SYvGAT9Xz_I/AAAAAAAAAvs/lerMOD449Hk/S220/Cheryl+Jan+2009+open+mike-+Ms.+Poetry+Bitch.JPG'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24283143.post-2742041717082306190</id><published>2010-04-02T14:40:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-11-04T15:38:16.311-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='TEXAS ?

NO help from the state of CA/butte county dept of social services with security deposit funding; a place which they've now both merged with and then renamed " One Stop" or  the " Cal Works" office.[ " jobs first" , but in reality the truth is that even $8.00 an hour Mc donald's is not  hiring in butte county; by the way] &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;and so , having dealt with enough shit from that fucking 20-21 year old college student bitchbag , KIRA, one of the staff at the torres shelter at 101 silver dollar way in chico, CA[ &lt;a href="http://www.chicoshelter.org/"&gt;www.chicoshelter.org&lt;/a&gt;] and definitely THE HARDEST ONE WORKING THERE TO DEAL WITH ; I got my brakes fixed on my 1996 honda accord LX and , on march the 4th, 2010; I set out to drive back east to either new york state or connecticut. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;along the way, I was on the budget plan, by the way; sleeping in freeway/tollway rest areas in nevada, wyoming, iowa, illinois, indiana, new york[ both chataqua and sullivan counties] and finally ; the rest area/state tourist information center in danbury, connecticut at freeway I-84 exit 2. I ran out of money back in iowa; having used all of my monthly social security income on that well-needed front brake job at midas of chico, CA[ they do great work, by the way-awesome], one night to shower at motel 6 chico[ after six days of sleeping in the car because torres shelter banned me till friday , march 5 over the " Carolyn, key tossing incident"; and yes, all the gas I needed to get as far as I did. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;back in iowa, little did I know, but my $148 a month conn. state suppliment from the CT DSS ran out on the first day of march. being that I was hardly able to keep up with my mail , and I am sure that the state of CT did not foward it to cottage grove,OR/anna,IL/chico,CA from 434 c heritage village in southbury, CT 06488.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;and so, that sometimes wonderful, but " reality-based" older sister, linda hayduk; she came to my rescue for one, and only one, time. she was so gracious enough to help me by depositing , with my permission, $300 of her own , hard-earned money ; into my bank account at wachovia/wells- fargo- another one of those big ripoff USA banks for sure.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;and so, I was able to stay at a motel 6 in both palatine, IL [ near chicago] and another one in horseheads, NY[ near elmira] on the mostly finished I-86 freeway. I also had just enough in gas money, as well as was able to get myself a decent meal at both white castle in chicago's south end and mc donalds on the indiana turnpike tollway I-80/90. on yes, that $6.15 chinese buffet lunch at best buffet in fredonia NY. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;and so, I again got to see chicago on the cheap, taking more photos that I originally lost when my former camera got stolen while staying with that black , gay guy in murphysboro, IL back in dec. I was originally considering settling someplace reasonably affordable in western or central new york state close to elmira; but instead decided to continue on to connecticut; a place I mistakenly assumed still had their social services dept.'s " homeless motel vouchers" . well guess what? having gotten to bridgeport where my sister in law was nice enough to put me up for a few days,  yesterday I went to the CT DSS and discovered different. they no longer have any help for the homeless here in fucking connecticut. none whatsoever, all they do, much like california and new york , is tell you to find a homeless shelter to stay at. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;the state of CT will help you with your security deposit, though; but you must first find a place where the landlord accepts those. and so, here I am back in the fucking place I left , returned to, and again left. and YEECH, BRIDGEPORT CONNECTICUT [ exception being black rock and a small area of the north end] is the worst place to live if you are a transgender person. ] as for finding a local shelter, well I am hoping that the hope house in fairfield , CT will take me in and allow me to stay with the women like my CT driver's license states I should be allowed to do. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;I don't know what the fuck to do? as my sister in law, karen- whom is really nice, is already helping out her nephew whom is staying there.  I am thinking about renting a room on a farm in central NY  for $450 month. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/24283143-698217341577344581?l=cheryloropal.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://cheryloropal.blogspot.com/feeds/698217341577344581/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://cheryloropal.blogspot.com/2010/03/so-my-best-friend-warren-of-avon.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24283143/posts/default/698217341577344581'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24283143/posts/default/698217341577344581'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://cheryloropal.blogspot.com/2010/03/so-my-best-friend-warren-of-avon.html' title=''/><author><name>Cheryl</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10239724355224966337</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_9HXCFGtdR64/SYvGAT9Xz_I/AAAAAAAAAvs/lerMOD449Hk/S220/Cheryl+Jan+2009+open+mike-+Ms.+Poetry+Bitch.JPG'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24283143.post-7693729054349163460</id><published>2010-03-12T08:13:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2010-11-04T15:42:55.363-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='BACK TO MY HOME STATE - IT LOOKS LIKE'/><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;" I'm just taking a greyhound......on the hudson river line....... I'M IN A NEW YORK......STATE.....OF MIND........".&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;and so were those famous words of Billy Joel , better known as the " Piano Man" of long island new york , USA . I believe that he wrote this song after living out in , where else ? CALIFORNIA - in the southern part around that well known " LA LA Land" of plastic people better known as lost angeles [ note that I deliberately misspelled  Los Angeles , a city best known for hollywood fluff on one side, and the worst chicano/mexican, black, white, and asian gangs in all the USA . ]&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;anyway, after breifly toruing the amish country areas of both ohio , sleeping in freeway/tollway rest areas in nevada, wyoming, iowa,  and  staying one night at the motel 6 in palatine; a suburb close of chicago - a city I again wanted to see before heading back east .&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;truthfully, I'd much rather live in a small town than a big city, but I must admit that when it comes to crazy drivers in every urban/suburban area,  chicago drivers , while in a rush like every other fucking city and burb in the USA, are for the most part reasonably polite.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In chi-town and the surrounding area, they at least will let you in lane in traffic if you put your turn signal on , much more so then I can say for drivers my native long island NY and NYC, well as orlando, FL ,   western and hartford/new haven area of connecticut , and , to a good extent ; in Cali-fucked-up-fornia. [ Chico, CA and sacramento area being a place where, despite the high enforcement zones set up by the infamous C.H. i. P.'s [ CALIFORNIA HIGHWAY PATROL ] , signaling your turns and freeway /road merges seems to be " optional" at best for about half the drivers.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;and so, here I am back in one of the two so called " welfare states " , of course california being the [ now former and 20 billion in the red state budget ] " # 1 welfare state of them all. but don't worry , they've always got the crystal meth trade to provide a good income for those in 18 % unemployed chico and oroville.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;so , having started out last thursday , march 25 at 6:30 PM , here I am on friday march 12 in elmira new york ; a place best known for being on the tail end of the western-central-northern new york snowbelt.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;rents seem reasonably " affordable" around here, not that, for overpriced and overrated california, they were not in chico/oroville /butte/tehama/shasta/siskiyou county areas. [ must be the 100-110+ summer temps from june 15 to sept 10 in the lower elevations of the calif. central valley??? hummmm? ]&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;anyway, so here I am, having debated whether to return to, as my friend warren of avon says, " boring connecticut " ; a place with high rents and housing costs similar to anywhere desirable in california . [ and even places so remote like lassen county up in the high sierra mtns in the middle of nowhere and 20 miles from the nearest town ] connecticut has great social services for those that are poor and need govt assistance , sort of like new york state , I believe ; this unless things have changed since I, in the " former life" ; lived briefly in rural delaware county, NY  13 miles out of delhi in a mobile home on a farm.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;well, they do say that this area, much like butte and shasta counties in CA , is rather conservative when compared to new york city , chicago, or san francisco. but you can find a nice, maybe older mobile home , apt, or even a house for between $300-$700 a month.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;that and , like gail whom worked at the motel 6 in elmira, some really awesomw and down to earth people . not that chico and CA in general did not have some really awesome people.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;it did,  as well it had  some of the NASTIEST MOTHER FUCKING, WHITE REDNECK BIGOTS TO BE FOUND ANYPLACE IN AMERICA- especially in places like paradise and magilia, CA where I had two fucking rednecky " good old dickheads" literally loudly singing that old , 1970's rock song titled " walk on the wild side" when they saw me{ and their lower male brains, their cocks got caught in their zippers-OUCH }&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I will miss many of the nicer people I met at the chico, CA unitarian fellowship on filbert ave , people like dorothy , an older woman whom tried to really help me by asking me  things like " what kind of job do you think you can get ? " , and " what would you really  like to do in life? did you ever think about going back to college , as butte college is a really good school to find yourself in."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;not that the state of new york does NOT have great colleges, the state U of NY , or S.U.N.Y. colleges , both the community colleges such as cortland-tompkins , NY state college of  forestry [ at syracuse U ] , alfred SUNY college, and the delhi college of technology , a " two year" college in delhi NY ; are all great colleges and some of the best in the USA.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;yeah , I think I want to first go down to the local DSS  and see what they have here in NY state . then I'd love to look around to see what is out there to rent , be it a mobile home, small house, or if worst comes to worst ; an apartment either here in elmira-horseheads or , preferably in one of the nearby smaller villages like watkins glen [ a place with the most bitchen' waterfalls running through a huge, hemlock wooded gorge one has ever seen this side of green and much rainy northern OREGON. ]&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;yeah, I like it here, and yes, it looks like I am back in my state of birth, that NEW YORK....STATE.....OF.......MIND.         &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/24283143-7693729054349163460?l=cheryloropal.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://cheryloropal.blogspot.com/feeds/7693729054349163460/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://cheryloropal.blogspot.com/2010/03/im-just-taking-greyhound.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24283143/posts/default/7693729054349163460'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24283143/posts/default/7693729054349163460'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://cheryloropal.blogspot.com/2010/03/im-just-taking-greyhound.html' title=''/><author><name>Cheryl</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10239724355224966337</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_9HXCFGtdR64/SYvGAT9Xz_I/AAAAAAAAAvs/lerMOD449Hk/S220/Cheryl+Jan+2009+open+mike-+Ms.+Poetry+Bitch.JPG'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24283143.post-4382838555992119668</id><published>2010-03-02T16:23:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2010-11-04T15:44:23.908-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='LIFE AT THE CHICO'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='CA TORRES SHELTER FOR THE HOMELESS'/><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;from just " two days" to what the fuck ? yeah, it has been more then two days , try nearly five without a shower; as so far, sat., sun, monday and now tuesday , wednesday, and fucking thursday nights. well today I had met with both pat clark , my service coordinator at the torres shelter at 101 silver dollar way here in chico, CA and yes, " fair weather" louise; a the woman in charge who can be both a really nice and helpful person , then ever so quickly change like the kansas summer weather during tornado season into a mother fucking BITCH . &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;yeah, here I assumed that it was fixing to be just two days untill last night when I did not get back until nearly the 6:00 PM PST deadline. and so, pat , my SC , had already left and FUCKING KIRA- THE LITTLE COLLEGE BITCH OF BITCHES WHOM OFTEN WORKS THERE AT NIGHT FROM 4:30 pm TILL MIDNIGHT - TOLD ME " SINCE YOU DIDN'T GET HERE AT 4:30 LIKE YOU WERE EXPECTED TO TO SEE PAT, YOU HAVE TO STAY OUT ONE MORE NIGHT AND THEN CALL PAT IN THE MORNING AFTER TEN.

I do admit that , at first, I found carolyn very attractive; her man-like butch ways and how she cusses all the time, tells fart jokes.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;I mean WHAT LESBIAN , TRANSSEXUAL OR OTHERWISE, COULD NOT BE TURNED ON BY SOMEBODY LIKE HER [ even though she's a hillbilly who grew up all of her life in willows, CA, a tough redneck town south of orland , CA along the I-5 freeway which is best known for a truck stop, and all the farms employing both the naturalized and wetback mexicans who work really had in the fields here in northern calif. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;as you already know, she soon turned on me after that and became my biggest ENEMY at the shelter even since misty and I went for that long drive to oregon that monday. I do admit that I misinterpreted her brief affectionate ways , like how she helf my hand briefly the day I was talking about killing myself in the car when we went to the chico unitarian fellowship that first sunday after she arrived at the torres shelter. this after her long time girlfriend, of 7 years, Pam and she got into a really big fight and she busted a coffee cup directly over pam's head ; she told me. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;and so , louise , who can sometimes really be a mother fucking bitch , and patrick , had a long talk . this being the FIRST FUCKING TIME SINCE I ARRIVED AT THE TORRES SHELTER THAT HE HAD ANY SORT OF FUCKING MEETING WITH ME. okay, so what did they both say , and what did I say ? &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;well about the fucking accusations that carolyn said about what I did , she exaggerated at lot of what happened. she said shit like I " pinched her on her ass really hard" , when all that I did was to tap her. she also told them that " the second time I picked up that [padlock] key and threw it at her; this when all I did was pitch it on the ground like a fucking bowling ball. I WAS MAD AT HER GOD DAMN ASSHOLE OF AN ATTITUDE , THE REASON THAT I DID THIS. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;now on to what fucking louise and my service coordinator , pat, had to say in my behalf. well one of their comments was that " I have been on vacation in california and staying at the torres emergency shelter with no intent of finding housing and making chico my permanent home. FIRSTLY , I TOLD THEM THAT I DO NOT WANT TO LIVE HERE IN CHICO , I HATE ALL CITIES AND FEEL &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;" CLUSTERFUCKED". then I went on and explained , upon deaf ears nevetheless; how I already came out to california, ended up in oregon homeless; then at mom's suggestion , returned to the east coast to connecticut where the social service, she felt and was damn well fucking correct ; were so much better than oregon.

" pat's words, " how they are busting their butts just so that we all have a roof over our heads until we can find permanent housing her in chico." which in some way they are right, as this was why I again left connecticut over the not wanting to live in some shithole ghetto in some CRAMPED EFFICIENCY APT. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;thia after explaing that last nonth the car needed tires , this month I need brakes. the way that they look at things, I should simply let all this go and instead , ride the mother fucking bus all over chico while saving my SSDI/SSI money for an apartment in " wonderful chico" ; a place while having some really killer people; is even more like what I left back in CT - a yuppie shithole full of stuck up young mommies with kids whom are brats, jogging " california beauties" [ more like anorexic bitches] and little more . &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;and so, I have two more nights till I can go back to the god damn torres shelter . but will I do what they recommend , forgo the brake job on my honda accord 1996 just so I can have money to find a place to live here in wonderful, butte county, california- the former land of dreams turned " welfare reform nighmare" for the poor? &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;NO MOTHER FUCKING WAY , PAT AND LOUISE. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;I DECIDED THAT I WILL INSTEAD RETURN TO THE EAST COAST , PROBABLY TO CONNECTICUT WHERE I AM STILL LEGALLY A STATE RESIDENT .

MURDER OR SUICIDE IN CHICO? yesterday, at about 11:30 AM , while driving by along park ave just past the god damn jesus center , I noticed a crowd standing at the bridge over little chico creek; along with the chico police and chico/butte co. fire dept. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;and so, circling the blocks looking for parking , I finally parked on park ave in the meterless, " 2 hour parking" spot by the auto dealer. well after crossing the street, " jaywalking" style as they call it here in CA [ when you go across between the corners] , I, along with other homeless people I knew from both the torres shelter and the jesus center ; upon asking were told by the cops and firemen to " move on, there's nothing to see." &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;well what happened? somebody earlier spotted a body lying face down in the waters of the stream , which is fast-moving at this time of the year , but often dry as fuck in the summer's usual, calif. from may till november; drought with a few puddles. apparently, there was , as the chico enterprise record said today , " an unidentified vagrant lying face down in the water" . gotta love the way the fucking cops and fire-MEN say that now. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;anyway, one black dude from the jesus center, one of the many homeless people living on the streets because they can't deal with the shelter's rules at either the sabbath house @ the jesus center [ for women born with their VAGINAS ONLY ] or the torres shelter [ operated by the city of chico and a private partnership called &lt;a href="http://www.chicochelter.org/"&gt;http://www.chicochelter.org/&lt;/a&gt; and very open toward transgender being segregated in with their chosen gender , myself being legally female - yet still pre-op SRS ] ; he said something to the effect of " that's victor" or something like that. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;personally, I never got to see ther body, but had thought of this two ways. 1. " oh fuck...I hope it is NOT buckeye. " and when I heard that the guy had a stab wound across his neck whom was dead, my first reaction was #2. " I HOPE IT IS FUCKING BRIAN, THAT NAZI DICKHEAD WHOM HARRASSES ME ALL THE TIME. HE DESERVES IT. [ needless to mention that , when the cops literally tried to twist the story around when he called them to give his LIES, which were " it tried to run me over with it's car", later that night, I threw a curse on him asking the goddess to curse him, " brian jacobs", as per the police printout; dead by the means of the dark god of light, " lucifer" :) ] &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt; well last night while in the ladies restroom while back at the shelter, my friend  when told about the possible murder and how it may be a " tweeker" or meth-head, she said " IT'S BRIAN I THINK. " she then added with " BUT DON'T GO AROUND SAYING ANYTHING , CHERYL. " well, needless to say , I later went outside and thanked the goddess for my dark, but well-deserved curse having hopefully worked. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;I will tell y'all more when I find out , but if it is indeed brian jacobs and he is fucking dead, well I only wish that I could get drunk and "party like it's 1999 all over again." I WOULD BE SO THRILLED IF HE IS DEAD, THAT NO GOOD SON OF A BASTARD , MOTHER-RAPING FATHER WHOM HARRASSED ME CONSTANTLY. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;I feel sorry for his girlfriend whom I heard is carrying his little " bastard" , I mean not yet born fetus; but maybe that will be the wake up call telling her to go find either a nice man or , better yet, a lesbian partner to help her raise the little bastard. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;I SINCERELY HOPE THAT IT IS FUCKING BRIAN. THAT IS ALL I HAVE TO SAY.   &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;by the way, last week while at the vagina monologues play at chico state U , I got myself a " rape/assault whistle" , this just in case I need to create a scene if and when that SCUMBAG brian comes to harrass me ever again. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;I SINCERELY HOPE THAT IT IS THAT FUCKING PILE OF SHIT.

[ maybe I should have applied for that one in mendocino county, CA , in willits ; best known for some real marijuana growing . [ could always stay stoned on good pot as , perhaps, the best way tp deal with a boring ass, go nowhere job at someplace like mc donalds, right ? or become a " tweeker" , as in do meth. LOL ] &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;anyway, who'd ever believe what one must fucking go through just to get some $9.00 an hour job at mc donalds today ; a whole fucking test designed to weed out the average fast food worker; one whom usually gets sick of working at places like Mc D's and quits within three months. they ask shit like if you were ever late to work , if you failed or passed in school, and if others often seek your advice. WHAT A FUCKING JOKE.  TO WORK AT MC DONALDS?????? HA HA HA . &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;then.....I did more research as to what I need to do to get a small , work from home and say " fuck the commute" business started; thing like how to finance the business, etc. first , you need to write a descriptive business plan, something which the small business administration walks you through step by step in it's online business plan development help. it is hard to do this, but there is so much help out there , from small business loans for those whom would not otherwise qualify for bank funding; to using S.C.O.R.E. the service corps of retired executives help to help you write the best business plan that you can write. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;and so, it looks like my life is going in a better direction.

[ not that there are many, and what is available, 1,000 plus unemployed Mexicans are in line to get it first. no offense meant toward the mexicans, as they are very nice people , I have found. hard workers too. ] &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;and so, once on their computers , I was online looking at what states may be the best for starting my small business the right way; as personally, with little experience and a work history with huge gaps of years in it; I don't see myself getting hired even by shit fucking hole WAL-FART [ I MEAN WAL*MART ] . &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;anyway, so yes, governor M.

I have not clue, but she is okay , MUCH NOT TO THE THANKS OF FUCKING A.J. ;  " MARINE FOR LIFE" AND FUCKING JAILBIRD WHOM IS ACTING LIKE HER " BIG BROTHER" ' NOR HIS WIFE, MARIA.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;anyway, so I really feel that I want to get the fuck out of california. I see nothing for me here and should've seen this the first time around. at least this time I can say that I " lived here for almost 2 months." &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;I'M IN THAT ................NEW YORK...................................STATE......OF......MIND............YEAH.....YEAHHH. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/24283143-3394170101596154469?l=cheryloropal.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://cheryloropal.blogspot.com/feeds/3394170101596154469/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://cheryloropal.blogspot.com/2010/02/three-words-are-on-my-mind-right-now.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24283143/posts/default/3394170101596154469'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24283143/posts/default/3394170101596154469'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://cheryloropal.blogspot.com/2010/02/three-words-are-on-my-mind-right-now.html' title=''/><author><name>Cheryl</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10239724355224966337</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_9HXCFGtdR64/SYvGAT9Xz_I/AAAAAAAAAvs/lerMOD449Hk/S220/Cheryl+Jan+2009+open+mike-+Ms.+Poetry+Bitch.JPG'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24283143.post-858240623674450921</id><published>2010-02-18T15:15:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2010-02-18T16:43:04.356-08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='FRIENDS CAN BE ENEMIES'/><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;and so, life in fucking chico and especially at the torres shelter is about to possibllybecome a nightmare for me! what caused this? well on monday my friend, misty k. [ whom her " protectors " like A.J. , maria- A.J.'s wife , and many others including that lesbian chick , carolyn ; are all trying to keep away from me now] and I went for a long drive out into the country . first , we headed to red bluff, a smallish california hillbilly town located in tehama county. we then toured red bluff, a town both misty and I did NOT feel was as " redneck" as many here in fucking , so called ' liberal " and " enlightened" chico warned me it was. we then went on toward redding , which now has become a fucking L.A. outpost chock full of malls, other strip malls, apt complexes , and all that sort of garbage! REDDING[ CA, not the pretty, semi-rural, but rich one in connecticut ] FUCKING SUCKS !&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;from there we took a long drive up freeway I-5 and went all the way into OREGON , ashland to be exact. well needless to say , after walking the town and going to all the killer little shops downtown that misty [ mostly] wanted to see; we ran out of time ; being that , at the torres shelter at 101 silver dollar way in chico; those staying there must be back NO LATER than 6 PM . that is, unless they've got a pass or somehow get stuck like I did when the fucking handa accord blew a fucking tire on hwy/shithole freeway CA-99 . and so , I had called to say that we " probably would be later than 6 PM " , and who else but the biggest " cunty" bitch on the shelter staff, answered ; KIRA . (:    THIS CHICK HAS GOT THE ATTITUDE OF BOTH DRILL SARGEANT AND SUPER RESPONSIBLE , SUPER ORGANIZED ADULT BITCH PREFESSIONAL ; ALL WRAPPED UP IN ONE 21 YEAR OLD BODY OF A CAL STATE CHICO STUDENT. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;well , it took us very long to get back, even though I took to safely , yet still &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;" speeding-ticket-ly" , driving well over the posted/ CHiP's enforced, speed limits once we got back to redding, CA and south. yet it still took us to nearly 9 PM to get back. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;and so, we both got kicked out for that night and were told to call our " service coordinators" the very next day after 10 AM . well, mine is patrick - whom is kinda kewl , hers is becky . we both still got told that we were " banned for 3 nights" and misty was told that monday night did NOT count; while pat said that monday night counted for me. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;well the first night , we drove all the fucking way out to the I-5 freeway rest stop just above corning, CA ; an olive growing , farming town 12 miles south of red bluff. everybody was worried for misty's safety , yet all but one woman , my friend and ally at torres shelter, dana; COULD REALLY GIVE A RAT'S MOTHER FUCKING ASS ABOUT ME! IN FACT , MARIA, HER MARINE CORPS HUSBAND , A.J. , EVEN FUCKING CAROLYN [ that ex-army dyke whom I thought was cool in the beginning ] ; ALL DECIDED THAT , BECAUSE I WAS THE DRIVER AND OLDER; I WAS 100% AT FAULT . &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;anyway, at the advice of dana , the next two night we had slept in my honda accord, which just came out from the shop after being repaired from the rear end accident which almost drove me to consider suicide , along with all the other shit like the asshole at the jesus center and the CORRUPT, USELESS CHICO COPS WHOM ALL KNOW NAZI BRIAN AND HIS RECORD.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;she was right about the food maxx parking lot being safe , both from harrassing police and criminals [ sometimes not sure which is worse anymore? ] . misty and I had NO PROBLEMA .   in fact she and I get along quite well, desipte what fucking maria , A.J. , and all at torres who see her as their " little sister they need to protect" ; all feel . &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;well guess what happened? well on the morning of fucking 2-18-10 , at roughly 7:30 AM , who the fuck else but " sgt A.J. comes up and tells misty to come with him and get something to eat. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;soon as I walked up to the food maxx to use their woman's room to brush my teeth [ havn't for 2 days ] and piss; fucking A.J. gets in my face and says; in a very nasty and threatening tone of voice ; " I AM VERY ANGRY AT WHAT YOU DID TO MISTY; GETTING HER KICKED OUT FROM THE SHELTER. I AM WARNING YOU THAT YOU'D BETTER STAY AWAY FROM MISTY , AND IN FACT I WILL ADVISE YOU THAT EVEN THOUGH THE STAFF SAY THAT YOU CAN COME BACK TO THE SHELTER TONIGHT; WHEN YOU FINALLY LEAVE; YOU WILL NOT MAKE IT FROM THE DOORS TO YOUR CAR. DO YOU HEAR ME? NOW, IF YOU EVEN COME CLOSE TO MISTY AT THE BARNES AND NOBLE [ BOOK STORE] , OR WORSE, TAKE MISTY WITH YOU IN YOUR CAR- YOU AND I WILL HAVE PROBLEMS AND I WILL CALL THE POLICE AND HAVE THEM ARREST YOU FOR KIDNAPPING .  NOW GET THE FUCK AWAY FROM MY LITTLE SISTER,  MISTY OR I MAY GET VIOLENT. UNDERSTOOD? "&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;and so, I did just that , as there was NO EXPLAINING THAT MISTY AND I WERE/ARE FRIENDS. AFTER ALL , A.J. IS TO BE FEARED , AS HE CAN KILL WITH HIS BARE HAND VERY EASY [ once a fucking MARINE, always a MARINE .]  after going to the upper bidwell park to eat my cold breakfast bought by CT food stamps , I went back to barnes and noble, where A.J. and another  mean looking dude sat and watched to make sure that I did not get close to misty. so I waited till he got the fuck out of there and went back with his wife after she got out of school ; and then I stayed and sat alone, reading some book called " 100 people who are screwing up america" by goldman. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;I did see misty being walked off by A.J. , his wife, maria [ whom now is  a real beyotch toward me after first being nice in the beginning] ; and the rest including joyce[ in the wheelchair]  and tony- her husband . they all looked like one angry mob out to protect misty . &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;I then called the shelter and asked to speak to pat, my service coordinator whom is assigned to help me with my transition toward becoming fully self sufficient and getting an apartment [ not that I want to live in fuck-hole chico in some tiny pisshole of a studio apt. , a place I now see as filled with PHONY " LIBERALS" AND OTHER , PLASTIC L.A. LA LAND TYPES FROM SOUTHERN CA AND THE GODDAMN BAY AREA. ] . leaving a message , I then got a call back from becky , the on duty SC ; telling her about the percived and maybe not so percieved DANGER I MAY BE IN FOR WHEN I RETURNED ; WHICH WILL BE TONIGHT; as 5 days without a shower is getting to me. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;she then said that from now on , I must inform the staff rather then deal with things on my own, and in fact ; I did what was right . she told me what A.J. and crew said and how they are blaming ME 100% for " taking their little sister away from the shelter and getting her tossed  out ", is WRONG. IT IS, LIKE I AND SHE SEE IT,  HALF MISTY'S FAULT , AS WE WERE BOTH IN THIS TOGETHER DESPITE WHAT HER " LOYAL PROTECTORS" ARE ALL SAYING . &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;she also went on to say that I should meet with my service coordinator next week and discuss my plans as to get out on my own and responsible. right now I fucking HATE CALIFORNIA, AS IT IS NO LONGER THE WONDERFUL STATE THAT IT WAS BACK IN THE 1970's AND 1980's . RATHER IT IS A PLACE FILLED HALF WITH REDNECKS MEANER THEN A GEORGIA RATTLESNAKE ; AND MORE SO, FULL OF PLASTIC , SIZE ZERO TO FOUR , " FEMBOTS" WITH VAGINA'S THAT PASS AS WOMEN . FUCK CALIFORNIA. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;yeah, weird, but half the reason both misty[ who has never been out of butte or sutter county, CA and grew up in oroville { " meth-capital of the world"}, yuba city , and palermo]  and I drove all the fucking way up to oregon is that we both hate this fucking area. she's been here all of her life , me, just about 5-1/2 weeks. and even weirdder was that this transman , jordin from eugene oregon whom I met at the gay bar called SNAFU in downtown eugene, OR ; had just called me last night wondering what happened to me . &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;so now , I am confused as to what to do; return to rainy from sept through early may northern oregon ? to either eugene or maybe yachats- a small town of about 850 which I loved for the people ; yet hated for the nasty , rainy from sept till june and cooler in summer but sunny , weather? &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;or get the fuck back east to one of those prized " welfare states" which still have help for people like me whom can NOT manage on their own . my sister's suggestiong was to come back to long island , NY , as they've got a rental subsidy program for the " mentally disabled but independent " which helps with rents, jobs, and such.[ mc donalds "career" AT $8.00 hr STARTING WAGE ? NO THANKS.]  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt; come to think about it, my reason for wanting to come out west was to live in a much more laid back area, one preferably RURAL ; in a mobile or house on land and NOT a stinking apartment in some town. I probably could get help anywhere in new york state , deal with the snow in the long winters, but someplace NICE and SAFE; FREE FROM THE METH AND PROBLEMS OUT HERE EVERYWHERE IN THE WEST FOR THE MOST PART. and I could live in some smaller town. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;or I could go back to CONNECTICUT-  a place filled with yuppie, " positive" and &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;" health-oriented" busy professionals; much like california but perhaps NOT AS BAD. at least , I was told, that if you demand what yoyu want from the dept of social services in CT , YOU DO NOT HAVE TO LIVE WITH THE HIP HOP " GOONS" IN ONE OF THE SHITHOLE CITIES LIKE WATERBURY , NEW BRITIAN , OR BRIDGEPORT'S GHETTO SECTION. I was told over the phone by chris, my sister in law, karen's nephew, that one can get sect. 8 help and get on the emergency housing list; then hold out until they find you a house or apt . in someplace nice and safe; he's demanding they find him something in milford , monroe, easton, or shelton. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;I'd rather be in the small towney northwest , still fairly-rural litchfield county; or out east someplace in still mostly rural windham, eastern tolland, or still " rural" and poor northern new london counties. that or maybe mystic or stonington, CT along the quiet coastal areas[ except during summer tourist season ] &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;and so , I did not make the friends I though I would make here in fucking california. rather, I have made very few friends and many more enemies. I no longer see either CA or the west as the place I want to really be . it is much nicer back east or in the rednecky, rural midwest of  southern illinois. the midwest is especially friendly, conservative in many ways, BUT VERY FRIENDLY AND REAL . OPPOSITE OF FLAKE-A-FORNIA AND EVEN EUGENE, OREGON. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;and so , next week I hope to talk with patrick and see what plan is the best ; i think that my sister was right  in some ways about returning to the east to connecticut ; as was my mother especially[ whom no longer can help me out financially] &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#cc33cc;"&gt;THE WEST MAY NOT BE THE BEST ANYMORE?

I was told by a member whom also stays at the torres shelter for the homeless that since stairways is a seperate entity that leases space from the jesus center but is NOT affiliated with said place; that I was welcome even after the jesus center banned me indefinitely[ 30 days] from their premises after my temper tantrum created by the ongoing harrassment and threats from that same dickhead guy , BRIAN. I think the jesus center uses him as their " white aryan thug in service to the lord" , to help control the " bad people" when they get out of hand while at the jesus center's premises. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 0, 0);"&gt;anyway, I heard wrong from the girl whom stays with me; at least according to &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 0, 0);"&gt;" MR. JESUS" HIMSELF, better known as pastor rich young, director of the fucking jesus center. he gave me his final lecture about how i'm no longer allowed on the property indefinitely after what he described as my driving out fast and nearly hitting a child. [ I remember stopping quickly and was just trying to get away from all of brian's crew of thugs; this after their " princess" , more like WHORE, spat all over the fucking driver's side window of my car in retaliation for my calling the useless chico [ CA] police the sunday before after their ringleader in dick-headed-ness, BRIAN , had threatened me for turning him in to the jesus center .&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 0, 0);"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 0, 0);"&gt;I ALSO LET HIM KNOW THAT " A CERTAIN WOMAN I WILL NOT NAME LOOKED UP THE JESUS CENTER'S MOST RECENT HEALTH DEPT. KITCHEN INSPECTION AFTER SHE AND MANY OTHERS INCUDING MYSELF , GOT STOMACH SICKNESS FROM EATING THEIR FOOD; THE MARCH 7, 2009 ONE ONLINE. IT LISTED MANY MAJOR HEALTH DEPT. FOOD HANDLER'S VIOLATIONS; FROM IMPROPER WARMING OF FOOD, TO DIRTY UTENSILS NOT SANITIZED AND NO HAIR NETS ON THE FOOD HANDLERS. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 0, 0);"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 0, 0);"&gt;and so, " Mr Jesus" went on saying how I " showed no remorse" for what I had done that sunday, blah blah. but I came back right at him , saying " what did you do when that jerk brian and his pack of rabid hyenas were harrassing me? huh? you told me to NOT call the cops on him, saying you would take care of things y'all's selves. YOU DID NOTHING BUT BLAME ME FOR EVERYTHING! from my [ perfectly LEGAL] use of the women's restroom by the kitchen, to blaming ME for " provoking" the harrassment done by brian, bobby [ jail buzzard] and the rest of the jailbirds whom dominate the grounds of the fucking jesus center. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 0, 0);"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 0, 0);"&gt;AGAIN, MR YOUNG, I MUST WONDER IF YOUR MOTHER FUCKING BASTARD , SO CALLED " LORD" , JESUS THE SO CALLED " CHRIST" ; WAS AS MUCH OF A FUCKING HYPOCRITE AS Y'ALL ARE WHOM RUM THE JESUS CENTER AT 1297 PARK AVE , CHICO, CA 95926 ? [ HATE TO TELL YOU, BUT JESUS THE JEW'S BEEN DEAD FOR OVER 2,000 YEARS BY THE WAY.] &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 0, 0);"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 0, 0);"&gt;anyway, so I went to the fucking chico police, with little hope as to the resolving of the situation and much apprehension . I spoke with detective Jose` at the chico ploice, this after waiting nearly 45 minutes for somebody to come out. and what did he have to say, that I, whom was banned from the jesus center's premises; "should go there tommorrow and speak to either lori m., charles, or bev; and ask them what Brian's last name is ; then have them call him . &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 0, 0);"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 0, 0);"&gt;SOUNDS LIKE A BIG SET UP IN WHICH I WILL BE THE " BAD PERSON" WHOM WILL TAKE THE FALL , ENDING UP GETTING MY ASS ARRESTED INSTEAD OF THAT FUCKER, BRIAN, THE ONE WHOM IS RESPONSIBLE FOR MY BLOWING UP FINALLY?

WHY? BECAUSE I AM A TRANSGENDER WOMAN WHOM THEY STILL SEE AS " male" . granted the jesus center does a lot of good things here in the greater chico community for both the homeless and low income , things like serving meals and allowing people living either on the street or at one of chico, CA's homeless shelters to use their computers. and lori whom works up in the office is really kewl with me.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;but the rest of the crew there have harrassed me about EVERYTHING ; FROM WHICH RESTROOM I AM ALLOWED TO USE [ LEGALLY THAT IS THE WOMEN'S AS MY CONNECTICUT DRIVER'S LICENSE SAYS " F" FOR FEMALE- AND CALIFORNIA IS A TRANSGENDER RIGHTS STATE ! ] to nearly everything else! they had the fucking god damn nerve to insist that I use the god damn mother fucking " men's " room, a place for me with&lt;br /&gt;" C-CUP" TITS AND wearing makeup and women's clothes would at minimum be DEGRADING and DANGEROUS! I mean what the fuck do they think I do? stand the fuck up like that asshole brian and his band of dickheaded male monkeys to piss? ASSHOLES FOR JESUS INDEED ! JESUS WOULD HATE HIS FOLLOWERS LIKE THOSE AT THE JESUS CENTER FOR SURE; THAT IS IF HE WERE STILL ALIVE TODAY!!!! [ historically he is fucking long dead, y'all know! read bible scholar robert w funk's book " honest to jesus" !]&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;okay , well then kira , one of the young college women working at the torres shelter found out from somebody about what I did , how I went ballistic last sunday at the fucking jesus center. I had to deal with her " concerned for my and other's safety " bullshit interview this past weds. ; this after haveing a good day otherwise.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I am getting to hate both chico and this fucked up state of california; this to the point that I am striongly considering returning to live in either connecticut [ if I could find a safe , smaller town to live in. that or new york state someplace .&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;why would anyone want to leave lovely and diverse california. well for one thing , there are FEW OR NO MORE SOCIAL SERVICES LEFT HERE IN ONE OF THE MOST EXPENSIVE STATES IN THE USA [ BESIDES CONNECTICUT AND NEW JERSEY and the NYC metro area, of course and just about every major metro area on the west coast and in denver, colorado ] . I discovered that well, my SSDI income of $639 / mth plus the SSI of $55 , totalling $694; here in CA would go up to $865- the highest in the nation. BUT......back in CT I was also getting a state GA suppliment of $148  as well as $200 in food stamp benefits! that totals , according to california logic , $1,042 per month. so subtract from $1,042 the $865 calif. max total SSD = SSI and that would be about $170 more!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;so what would you do , leave this meth infested place. more later&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/24283143-8208202041012062027?l=cheryloropal.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://cheryloropal.blogspot.com/feeds/8208202041012062027/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://cheryloropal.blogspot.com/2010/02/fucking-jesus-center-well-they-ought-to.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24283143/posts/default/8208202041012062027'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24283143/posts/default/8208202041012062027'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://cheryloropal.blogspot.com/2010/02/fucking-jesus-center-well-they-ought-to.html' title=''/><author><name>Cheryl</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10239724355224966337</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_9HXCFGtdR64/SYvGAT9Xz_I/AAAAAAAAAvs/lerMOD449Hk/S220/Cheryl+Jan+2009+open+mike-+Ms.+Poetry+Bitch.JPG'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24283143.post-5055361395919039469</id><published>2010-01-22T13:06:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2010-02-18T15:15:47.736-08:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='CALIFORNIA HERE I COME'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='AND YOU GOT NO MOINEY FOR'/><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="COLOR: rgb(204,51,204)"&gt;&lt;span style="FONT-WEIGHT: bold"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;so here I am back in fucking california again. yeah, just like the song " california here I come-right back where I started from - open up that golden gate....." and I definitely came at the wrong time to the once great " WELFARE STATE" OF THE WEST. [ NEW YORK'S ALL THAT BACK EAST :) ] yeah, you guessed it, governor asshole , I mean SWARTZENNEGGER, THE GOVERNOR WHOM " TERMINATED CALIFORNIA AS WE ONCE KNEW IT!" he fucked everything up as far as the state's one well-funded entitlement and educational programs go. all so the wealthy would not have to pay taxes on their yachts and real estate investments[ the investments part was unanimously passed under the disguise of " tax breaks for homeowners"&lt;br /&gt;[ those down in LA LA LAND over in beverly stuck up hills!]&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;and so , wonderful , I will get a increase in my SSI check of $151 per month. sounds good? right? WRONG!!!!! they then will cut whatever food stamps benefits I may get under GA or general state assistance- up to $259 but one has to be living in her car to get this.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;and so, up to $845 month, but no food stamps here in sunny cali-fucked-up-forn-eee-i-a. compare this with connecticut and what I was getting [ still am as I've never told them I had " left CT " yet, and was back there in nov. of 2009] and so , from oregon where I have got to admit that I really LOVED THE PEOPLE IN Yachats [ Ya-hats] at that landmark cafe; back all the fucking way to connecticut where my mom[ not I ] felt that the social services would better help me.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I HATE TO SAY THAT MOM KNEW BEST! SHE DID. IT WAS JUST THAT BEING AROUND BOTH THOSE STUCK THE FUCK UP, " PROFESSIONAL" DOUCHEBAG WOMEN IN CT AND DOWNSTATE NEW YORK WOULD HAVE MADE ME SICK! I COULD SEE THAT WHEN THAT UPTIGHT " PRIVATE" TYPE BITCH LITERALLY GOT ALL PISSY ASS WHEN I HAD ASKED HER, IN GENERAL CONVERSATION,&lt;br /&gt;" DOES SHE GO TO THE S.U.N.Y. NEARBY OR WHAT? " [ I'M NOT A GOD DAMN MAD WOMAN AND RAPIST YOU MOTHER FUCKING UPTIGHT " PRIVATE" HO' !]&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;THAT DID IT RIGHT THERE, AND THEN I SO QUICKLY KNEW WHY I HATED NEARLY EVERYONES GUTS BACK IN THE EAST , RURAL UPSTATE-WESTERN NEW YORK STATE AND NORTHERN NEW ENGLAND/ RURAL PA. EXCLUDED!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;and so, first, it was off to new mexico by way of southern illinois. down to the carbondale area where I knew there were lots of mobile homes out in the country and yes, they've got HILLS! I was in anna, jonesboro, metropolis[ 30 ft tall superman statue in front of the courthouse] , looking all over that area. three weeks later I ended up in this shelter called the good samaritan house after the carbondale women's shelter had no beds available. while there, I met C. J. , aka victor- a black gay man whom literally hated " caucasians" , or crackers, honkies, whites. he saw a potential to change me and make me into a better person, but he was, while in many ways right, one fucking hell of a doninating , EMOTIONALLY ABUSIVE BASTARD! his whole thing revolved around the fact that I needed to, as he felt, " learn how to respect somebody else's place, or home[ his new apt in murphysboro]&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;he wanted for us to be roommates, something that may have been good for me financially, but I could just see he and I getting along. he is one to lay down the rules; while I am one whom could give a fuck less for " structure" in living. COULD YOU SEE US AS ROOMIES? he also saw me, a transsexual woman, as still very much the " man" and an " ugly ass woman at that" . see , he was once a crossdresser himself back when he was younger in his 20's and living in then, a much more conservative and yes, RACIST murphysboro, illinois. [ on IL-13 west of carbondale and the home of the southern illinois university]&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;so , back to the good sam's house where they told me that I could not come back until being out a full two weeks. the social worker there suggested that I head on toward st. louis, which was both good and bad as far as LGBT and hmelessness is concerned. the karen house, owned by the catholic charities of saint louis MO , was awesome! one of the social workers thre told me that , even though they had no rooms available, they could put me up for a night or two in the family room if no other shelters were open to me. they then sent me to the missionaries of charity, run by the fucking archdiocese of st louis MO , where the god damn sister, [ head NUN] there literally told me that " you have to stay at the men's shelter" . this after the younger sister whom interviewed me for over a fucking hour and KNEW THAT MY DRIVER'S LICENSE SAID " F" FOR FEMALE, THEN ASKED THE GOD DAMN HEAD SISTER .&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I then went on back to the karen house, a place I wish that I had stayed [ though missouri has NO transgender rights and is run by the southern baptists , like southern IL but far more conservative!] . finally, they sent me to this rough downtown shelter which, like the fucking god damn nuns, gave me more of a HASSLE about the whole staying with the women thing despite the driver's license saying " F". this old CHRISTIAN REDNECK FUCKER THERE AT NEW LIFE EVANGELICAL CENTER ON 1411 LOCUST ST IN DOWNTOWN ST. LOUIS, MO, BOB, A RETIRED MARINE CORPS BASTARD WITH THAT " MAN'S MAN ATTITUDE OF " BORN WITH A COCK=MAN" ; BOTH HIM AND THE GOD DAMN REVEREND FINALLY ALLOWED ME TO STAY AT NEW LIFE . www.newlifeevangelicalcenter.org BUT I HAD TO STAY DOWNSTAIRS ON THE FLOOR!

I had wanted to live in california more then here , originally , but california is far too expensive. even in yreka / siskiyou county, the rents are quite high [ for being in a remote, rural- wilderness area!] at around $600 and UP+++. so at the suggestion of my mom , I went on to fucking oregon, " because my neice[ jamie] lives there and she may be able to help you find a place."  well did you ever feel like your own family was good for little more then shit ???? well that was how jamie made me feel , and I have a feeling that it is her fucking husband rick whom is the reason that she would not allow, or even ask me, to at least stay with her till I got a place of my own [ somehow , on a shitty $694 month total SSDI + SSI check! ???? GOD DAMN AMERICA!!! ] he is a catholic , so that perhaps explains half of it. the rest? well he is also a newport OR cop of two years , and like most of them  whom are in the good ole boys network ... well you get the drift???&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;well ....... so here I am living in a tent about 17 miles south of yachats, OR , a reasonably liberal town with an interesting mix of rednecks, artists, service workers[ mostly half unemployed during the winter rainy season] , just a shit mix of some nice, friendly, and interesting people. the tolerance level of yachats seems to be bitchen' to the max, err AWESOME. but it is cliquish to the max as well . I've met some killer people, a lesbian named kathryn whom was seemingly nice , as well as janet, a woman about my age , and more. even most of the hillbillies here in this small town called Yachats [ pronounced YA-HAATZ , and yes OR-Y-GUN ! not ORE-GON ! HE HE HE ] seem to be tolerant, well all but this one bull-headed, mean lokking mother fucker whom justy gives me the stare down at the landmark inn. the bartenders are nice, matt, from california originally, is really bitchen' kewl  and so are all the rest!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;so why am I already sick of this fucking place called OR-Y-GUN ?????  well all it does is rain and rain , 6 of seven days per week from oct 1st till june! I never felt as COLD as I do here with all the humidity , worse then back east in april's rainy season!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;plus, the god damn fucking oregon social services, called the oregon dept of human services [ www.oregon.gov ] has absolutely NO RENTAL ASSISTANCE, even the food stamps would be less for me here, in CT , for example, I get $200 / month [ based upon that " rent cost of $470 / month plus utils. of $157 - which I never really paid and freeloaded off of mom . and as for the so called " progressives" here on the west coast ? well it seem more HORSESHIT THAN REALITY !&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;but last night at the landmark inn bar was why I feel the way that I do. some bitch ass bar whore named kelli , or calli, her real name , invited me over to her sister's place. she knew that I was a transwoman , but I think she still saw me as the " M thing" more then anything else. well, needless to fucking say , she was coming on to me all fucking night like the drunken sass that she was , and then, at the same time asking me shit like " so, are you a man? or a woman? " FUCKING C-U-N-T !!!! BITCH! HO' !!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;anyway, so I did take her offer and stay over, but in thwe morning  when she invited me to come with her sister and she, plus sam , her sister's boyfriend, down to the beach by the yachats river , after her sister walked off with sam down romantic lane ; she walked down to the beach with me and then ; LIKE THE CUNT SHE TURNED OUT TO BE; LITERALLY LEFT ME SITTING THERE ON A ROCK.  am I mad ?? why yes , as I do not like game players .&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;anyway , all I have to say is this. FUCK YOU KELLI , CALLI, OR WHATEVER THE FUCK YOUR NAME IS ! I LEFT CT BECAUSE OF THOSE LIKE YOU .&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;MORE LATER....&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;okay, jamie, the neice. well she was so nice enough to treat me to my big birthday dinner at some chinese restaurant in florence, OR, about 12 miles from where I am camping&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/24283143-6603053120759564513?l=cheryloropal.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://cheryloropal.blogspot.com/feeds/6603053120759564513/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://cheryloropal.blogspot.com/2009/11/well-here-i-am-in-fucking-oregon-and.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24283143/posts/default/6603053120759564513'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24283143/posts/default/6603053120759564513'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://cheryloropal.blogspot.com/2009/11/well-here-i-am-in-fucking-oregon-and.html' title=''/><author><name>Cheryl</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10239724355224966337</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_9HXCFGtdR64/SYvGAT9Xz_I/AAAAAAAAAvs/lerMOD449Hk/S220/Cheryl+Jan+2009+open+mike-+Ms.+Poetry+Bitch.JPG'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24283143.post-1993780691438892686</id><published>2009-08-15T12:25:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-11-04T15:54:04.174-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='WESTWARD HO- KANSAS- IT&apos;S ACTUALLY QUITE PRETTY'/><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;well here I am in kansas someplace , on my way west . so far I've been through punxsutwaney, PA and saw Phil's roost in the town library ; then rolling southern ohio into seymour indiana ; the hometown of singer john mellencamp .

ALL THOSE BAD WORDS YOU SAID ABOUT [SKANK] WHO WORKS IN MY OFFICE AND HER DAUGHTER WHO'S AN HONOR ROLL STUDENT! YOU SHOULD BE ASAHMED OF YOURSELF! "&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I THEN LET HIM HAVE IT, SAYING , " FOR YOUR INFORMATION, SHE DESERVES IT FOR WHAT SHE DID TO MY BROTHER, MY MOM SHELLED OUT THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS TO GET HER OFF MY BROTHERS BACK. MY BROTHER DIED OF CANCER AND SHE PLAYED A BIG PART IN HIS DEATH WITH HER GOLD DIGGING WAYS , JUST SO THAT LITTLE PIECE OF SHIT NAMED ****** , AND NOT ONE OF OUR FAMILY EITHER BECAUSE JOE AND GOLD DIGGER NEVER WERE MARRIED; COULD HAVE HER EDUCATION!

AS IN SEXUAL HARRASSMENT !&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;WELL , ANYWAY , I HAVE NOT BEEN IN HERE TILL TODAY BECAUSE I HAVE BEEN PACKING AND GETTING READY FOR THE LONG, TRIP ACROSS THIS USA ; UPON WHICH I HAVE DECIDED TO TAKE ALL BACK ROUTES ACROSS THE COUNTRY AND NEVER GET ONTO EVEN ONE MILE OF INTERSTATE HIGHWAY/FREEWAY/EXPRESSWAY/PARKWAY - UNTIL I REACH EITHER SANTA YNEZ [  THE LATE MICHAEL JACKSON'S RANCH HOMETOWN] AND GAVIOTA; OR GOING THE OTHER TRACK - PISMO BEACH, CALIFORNIA !&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;this trip will be taking me through 13 states , in this order . CT,NY,NJ,PA,OH,IN,IL,MO,KS,CO,NM,AZ,and finally CALIFORNIA ! I will be going through   Joe Paterno's State College, PA , along with John Cougar Mellencamp's Seymour Indiana, Gretchen Wilson's Pocahontas, Illinois [ country music outlaw with a vagina, singer, in her song " Pocahontas Proud" on the CD- Here for the Party].&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I will then cross the missisippi river at golden eagle IL on the golden eagle ferry { $7.00 one way]  into missouri , then go up toward Hannibal, MO, mark twain's boyhood hometown. from there, it'll be straight on over 200 miles , across MO to Melissa Etheridge's hometown of Leavenworth, Kansas; then across Kansas-  perhaps one of the most conservative bible belt states in the united state's of america; through Salina [ where my late brother, Joe's first wife, Donna, was from . the one he had met and married back in 1964 while in the US air force and stationed in wichita, KS ] ; then onto Hayes, trego Center , Cedar bluff state park , Russell , and finally weskan, KS , up to mount sunflower [ kansas' highest point ]&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;and then over through cheyenne wells, CO,  toward littleton , colorado - the unlikely home of my favorite example of bullying in high school gone too far - DYLAN KLIEBOLD . the guy whom, with eric harris, went on that rampage back in april of 1999 and then, shot 12 students [ all jocks, honor students, and preppie-christians! so called popular students whom , perhaps , deserved what they got in some ways. ] and one teacher.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;from there it will be on toward the rocky mountains and Pike's Peak - at elevation of 14,410 feet above sea level the second highest mountain in the continental USA next to mount whitney in CA at 14,446 ft. I think . I think I'll take the cog railway up to the top , saving both wear and tear on the car and well.....the chance of getting far too dizzy from the higher elevations along the top of that auto road- a toll road by the way like mount washington in new hampshire . then it will be across the great rockies and the continental divide as I head into buene vista CO and over toward almont on a county road going up through the highest of mountains and the rocky mountain national forest ! it shall be awesome, I just hope the car can handle it- but after having everything checked, I know that the coolant is good, brakes were about halfway worn- which is great with 15,000 to 20,000 miles left n them approximately.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;from there , it will be down toward silverton CO and then durango, CO ; all the way down into new mexico near farmington, NM . then over into the high desert of AZ , kayenta, the grand canyon's south rim and grand canyon natl. park ; down and over through willaha, supei, along the indian service roads , state/federal highways but dirt roads , I believe. then, into peach springs, AZ and over toward boulder city and the HOOVER DAM. into las vegas on the strip and then, eventually going into CALIFORNIA and the death valley .&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;from there, it will be over and up into the sierra nevada mountains and the sequoias and sequoia national park's south boundary[ perhaps into it as well for some camping ! if I can get in this time of the year? maybe should make reservations ahead by cell phone! ] . then down into the vast and quite dry central valley just above bakersfield and again, over the coastal ranges and then ; it will be all downhill toward the mighty pacific Ocean ; coming out either through santa ynez into gaviota, CA; or just above , or below, there into either santa barbara or possibly pismo beach. I then will follow the california state route 1 all the fucking way north toward carmel and the 17 mile drive[ which you must pay for $9.50 toll but can have that deducted if you spend over $25 at any restaurant - Roy's, a hawaiian steakhouse , is highly recommended and one can dress casual{ but perhaps not just in sports' bra tops !!! LOL } ]&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I will next perhaps stop off at san francisco to see steve , this dude I knew from Irvington new york and the white plains borders on friday nights with marshall, hank,  jim, bob, and all the others including julie . this back , of course, in the old , " former life's days " if you know what I mean- though steve knows I am a transsexual woman now! as does hank and I'm sure , bob as well whom keeps up with hank/ henry .&lt;br /&gt;then, form there , it will be off to northern california, following the same state road 1 all the way toward eureka with side trips into inland mendocino county , humboldt county; at which pint i will cross over into weaverville, CA - that very same town with only 4,000 people in it that I wanted to see as " It" back in sept. of 1996 when arriving in overdeveloped and apartmentalized redding , california on that grey-dog bus [ greyhound] . I will probably ventrure on up toward yreka as well as into southern oregon and probably see my neice , jamie .&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;that is if she is okay still with me and DOES NOT SIDE WITH THAT FUCKING GOLD DIGGER WHORE ******* !!!!! ???????? THE BITCH WHOM POUNDED THE FINAL NAIL INTO HER FATHER'S, AND MY BROTHER'S , COFFIN !!!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;as for now, I am still undecided as to where I will move to , I'll have to fucking look around and see where , and what , I like better .  far northern isolated northern california? or southern, maybe central INLAND Oregon ???? like I have been telling everybody whom asks as if I was Ms . fucking yuppie bitch with her pockect pen planner in her hand ; I have no [ fucking] clue ! someplace in between chico california to the south , and eugene, oregon to the north. between mendocino and humboldt counties inland at least 20 miles where summers get hotter ; and possibly over toward bend oregon area, cascadia , OR - ANY FUCKING PLACE WHERE I CEN GET AS FAR AWAY FROM THESE YUPPIE " PROFESSIONAL " MONEY MAKING DOUCHBAGS I HATE HERE ON THE EAST FUCKING COAST IN SHIT-NECTICUT AND FUCKING WESTCHESTER COUNTY , NEW YORK !&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I DON'T NEED THE FUCKING OVERPRICED ARTS , " CULTURAL " BULLSHIT OF THE GOD DAMN FUCKING CITIES WITH ALL THE YUPPIE, " WELL-ATTIRED" , SHIT DOES NOT SMELL, PRISSY- ASS SNOTBAGS IN THEIR HIGH FUCKIN' HEELS! BISTROS, WITH THEIR SORRY ASS, OVERPRICED AND UNDER-PORTIONED " HEALTH FOOD", CALORIE COUNTER'S  BULLSHIT , I DON'T NEED! ALONG WITH ALL THE FUCKING, STUPID " SPRIITUAL SEEKING " PLASTIC&lt;br /&gt;" ENLIGHTENED" EX-HIPPIES LISTENING TO THEIR GOD DAMN FUCKING DAVE MATTHEWS BAND " MUSIC FOR THE FUCKING PEOPLE , POSITIVE AND UPLIFTING " HORSESHIT !&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;GET ME OUT IN THE FUCKING COUNTRY , WHERE BEEF IS WHAT'S FOR DINNER ! YET WHERE I WILL STILL HAVE MY LGBT RIGHTS ! THAT IS WHERE I WANT TO LIVE !  A TRAILER IN THE MOUNTAINS OR VALLEY , ON A DIRT ROAD SEVEN MILES LONG ! AS FAR AWAY FROM FUCKING SHALLOW ASSED , GO-GETTER, AMBITION-DRIVEN " PROFESSIONALS" AS I POSSSIBLY COULD LIVE!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;WHEN I GET TO THAT PLACE , I WILL KNOW IT ! AND THAT IS WHERE I WANT TO BE RIGHT ABOUT NOW . I DON'T NEED MALLS, MOVIE THEATERS, RIGHT CLOSE BY . I DON'T NEED NEIGHBORS POLLUTING MY BREATHING SPACE IN SOME FUCKING APARTMENT COMPLEX! I LIKE PEOPLE BETTER WHEN I DON'T HAVE TO LIVE IN REALLY CLOSE PROXIMITY TO THEM ! THE FEWER THE BETTER! AS MANY OF THEM BECOME TOTALLY USELESS TO ME AFTER A FEW MONTHS OR A YEAR !&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;THINKING BACK , I LIKED WHERE I WAS ON ELK CREEK ROAD IN MEREDITH , NEW YORK UPSTATE , 15 MILES TO WAL MART OF ONEONTA [ 16 MILES DOWNTOWN AND SUNY STATE COLLEGE ONEONTA ] . THE NEAREST SHOPPING SUPERMARKET BEING IN THE VILLAGE OF DELHI, NY - 12.8 MILES AWAY . THE ONLY THING THAT WAS BAD WAS THE WINTERS ! ALL THAT SNOW, AND YES, THOSE ASSHOLE NEW YORK DRIVERS WHOM MOVED FROM NEW YORK CITY AND LONG ISLAND UP THAT WAY !&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;AND SO, TRINITY COUNTY, CA , SISKIYOU CO, INLAND HUMBOLDT OR MENDOCINO[ WHERE THEY GROW THE POT ! ] ; PERHAPS JOSEPHINE CO, BEND CO, LAND CO, DOUGLAS COUNTY, OREGON . WHEREVER THAT TWO LAND ROAD , IN THE WORDS OF FORMER SOUTHERNER AND COMEDIAN, JEFF FOXWORTHY , SAYS " IF  TELLING OUT OF TOWN GUESTS THE DIRECTIONS TO YOUR NEW HOME INCLUDE TURN LEFT OFF THE PAVED ROAD! { THEN YOU MIGHT BE A REDNECK !} "&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;YES SWEETIE! THAT IS THE PLACE WHERE I WANT TO BE AGAIN!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;and so, july 23, 2009 , I will again return to where I started out back in september of 1996 , as that fucking miserable " M" thing I lived as for far too long . as long as I can still drive to the city or wherever I have to to get my hormones every 3-6 months , I will be happy being the cunt'ry  lesbian bitch!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;as for now? I am looking foward to driveing the back routes across america , and yes, seeing how those conservative " bible thumpers" really react to me . I NOW KNOW ENOUGH TO STEP BACK AND GET THE FUCK OUT OF THERE WHEN HOSTILITY IS ALL AROUND ! MAYBE IT IS REALLY NOT AS BAD AS ALL THESE&lt;br /&gt;" EAST FUCKING COAST EDUCATED INTELLECTUALS " , FROM WHOM I CAN'T EXPECT TO GET FROZEN SHIT IN THAT UPSTATE NEW YORK COW PASTURE IN WINTER FROM; SAY THAT IT IS IN KANSAS???&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;WILLING TO FIND OUT SOON !                                       &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(51, 204, 0);"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:180%;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(51, 204, 0);"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(51, 204, 0);"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:180%;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(51, 204, 0);"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/24283143-3179416099566182572?l=cheryloropal.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://cheryloropal.blogspot.com/feeds/3179416099566182572/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://cheryloropal.blogspot.com/2009/07/living-room-at-434-c-heritage-village.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24283143/posts/default/3179416099566182572'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24283143/posts/default/3179416099566182572'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://cheryloropal.blogspot.com/2009/07/living-room-at-434-c-heritage-village.html' title=''/><author><name>Cheryl</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10239724355224966337</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_9HXCFGtdR64/SYvGAT9Xz_I/AAAAAAAAAvs/lerMOD449Hk/S220/Cheryl+Jan+2009+open+mike-+Ms.+Poetry+Bitch.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_9HXCFGtdR64/SlvqWRzY1qI/AAAAAAAAA4s/UcTaha6GwIo/s72-c/living+room+1+FP.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24283143.post-3560146118432549562</id><published>2009-07-01T18:48:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-11-04T15:58:51.260-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='SCENIC  WASHINGTON CONNECTICUT'/><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_9HXCFGtdR64/SkwXgp9oDdI/AAAAAAAAA4E/l0IK6fIjOkA/s1600-h/IMG_0009.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px;

I will definitely miss my endocrinogist down at the callen lorde center in manhattan NY at 356 west 18th street near 9th ave. I'll miss riding those fun subways everytime I go down to the city , the drive from white plains NY to southbury along the back routes and town roads.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I will miss MOM most of all , whom has given me a free ride in life for much longer then I deserved, causing me to never learn to rither grow up , or commit suicide eventually! maybe overdose on crack cocaine and get shot by the many bad people I used to associate with as " It" Oropal .&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I will miss the niceness of southbury connecticut , the scenery and the many forests , places like the paradise hill preserve, where I first hiked on a snowy new years eve as ' It ' ; back in 2003 and discovered the place!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I WILL MISS PISSING OFF THE FUCKING YUPPIE HOUSEWIVES IN TOWN BY WEARING MY SPORTS' BRAS IN SUMMER TO THE SUPERMARKET - ESPECIALLY DEB AND THAT CUNT , SHERRI - BOTH ASSISTANT MNANAGERS OF SHAWS SOUTHBURY- DEB BEING THE ONE WHOM TOLD ME " MY MANAGER SAID YOU CAN'T COME IN THE STORE WITHOUT A SHIRT ON ANYMORE!

But, as I began to transition , started wearing skirts and dresses,  and legally became CHERYL- she warmed up and became very nice toward me everytime I came in . I LEARNED SHE WAS NOT SO STUCK UP AND RATHER A VERY COOL CHICK  WITH A VERY REBELLIOUS SIDE TO HER!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2. cathy at stop and shop of southbury - whom , now front end manager , is always very nice toward me and treats me like any woman shopper would expect to be treated!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3. alice and the girls at CVS drugs pharmacy - all whom have eventually come around and accepted me as one of the girls here in town.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4.

FUCK YOU , JANET AND THE REST OF YOU " PROPER SOUTHBURY BITCHES" !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;7.

Nikki - the 20 year old, bisexual,  hispanic puerto rican girl whom worked, for the longest time, at southbury's stop and shop. [ she tended to be nicer when she was dating women !  and one of her uncles , she told me once, is part owner or manager of Danbury's Triangles - one of the only two gay bars in western&lt;br /&gt;connecticut north of lower failfield county's westport - the cedar brook cafe .&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;10.

THIS FOR THE SECOND TIME DURING WHICH, YES, AGAIN THEY LOST WITH 31-6 !  I WENT WITH WARREN THE WEEK BEFORE THE FIRST TIME , THIS AFTER CONNECTICUT PRIDE 2009 ON JUNE 7th.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I later met warren after driving back on the back routes  of route US 44 into simsbury CT at the mc donalds' ; talking on my cell phone's bluetooth as I drove along hartford's worst neighborhood's main street called ALBANY AVE. -ONE OF THE BADDEST BLACK NEIGHBORHOODS IN ALL OF CONNECTICUT NORTH OF NEW HAVEN!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;he later showed me his cramped living quarters above that garage in avon CT , we talked for a couple hours. I then left as that nasty rainstorm continued all night long; driving the still fairly rural state roads through burlington, harwinton, torrington's southernmost end; into thomaston and then picked up US 6 into watertown, woodbury, and finally southbury CT .&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I thought about how many years I lived here before moving to florida , how I knew each and everyone of these roads , how , for the most part; it has kind of stayed pretty much the same in many ways! the state is still mostly wodded and still has that " rural" lifestyle, at least as far as the homes being far apart from one another and the towns being still relatively small without too many shopping centers ; or any in many of them like harwinton and burlington! the roads are mostly still only two lanes , with wooden guardrails still along the sides and those little , white reflectors attached to them .&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;FUCKING CONNECTICUT ! THE MORE IT HAS CHANGED- THE MORE IT NEVER REALLY DID ACTUALLY CHANGE - EXCEPTION BEING HOW THE DRIVERS' HAVE NOW BECOME A BUNCH OF ALWAYS IN A HURRY ASSHOLES LIKE DOWNSTATE NEW YORK, AND YES, MASSACHUSETTS " MASS-HOLE" DRIVER'S EVEN MORE SO TEND TO BE!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I have traveled nearly every fucking state road in this state , from new london, voluntown, sterling and thompson along still rural route 149; to north porchuck road and john street in greenwich, long lots and compo roads in westport. I have hiked many trails here in connecticut, ridden many back roads back when they had very few houses in places like chester and hadlyme ! I have camped in the devil's hopyard state park's campground with just the outhouse toilets  and no showers! I have been to those same waterfalls along eight mile brook in haddam , millington green nearby- all has become so frantically busy with more and more people always in a hurry.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;CONNECTICUT, WHILE STILL A VERY PRETTY SMALL STATE; HAS SURELY LOST ITS FORMER CHARM ! THE " SMALL TOWNS" ARE REALLY NOT SMALL ANYMORE ! THEY HAVE BEEN TAKEN OVER BY YUPPIES BUILDING HUGE $400,000 TO OVER ONE MILLION DOLLARS HOMES ON 1-5 ACRE LOTS ; ALL OF WHOM STRUGGLE TO MAINTAIN " BALANCE" IN THEIR BUSY, CORPORATE WORKING LIVES!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;sure, this state , well as downstate new york , has all its arts and theater offeri ngs, but what good are those if you are NOT one of the " chosen many " living here whom can afford to go to , say ; a play at the hartford bushnell , new haven's long wharf theatre ; or even the Goodspeed Opera House ; an historical  dinner-theatre situated in an old Country Inn set right along the banks of the Connecticut River in Haddam CT ; about 30 miles southeast of hartford, the constitution state's capitol city just across that famous drawbridge leading from portland CT west on route 66 .&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;plays at those places range in ticket prices from about $45-80 each!!!! WHO THE FUCK CAN AFFORD TO ENJOY CONNECTICUT'S  CULTURAL OFFERINGS UNLESS THEY ARE A FUCKIN G GOD DAMN " PROFESSIONAL" PERSON ?????? NOT THE BUCHER, BAKER , OR CANDLESTICK MAKER! THAT IS FOR SURE!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;EVEN THE PLUMBER - WHOM COULD STILL, WHEN HE FINDS THE TIME OFF; TAKE THE FAMILY CAMPING AT ONE OF CONNECTCUT'S MANY STATE PARK CAMPGROUNDS OUT EAST NEAR THE FOXWOODS AND MOHEGAN SUN&lt;br /&gt;" INDIAN" GAMBLING CASINOS!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;but the real truth is this. connecticut has to be one of the fucking hardest place to live if you are not a family person , or at least wealthy and single!  [ this includes lesbians and gays as well ! ]  it is a place where one must volunteer for this, that , and about 50 other things in the community!   belong to this and that professional organization or theatre group or troupe!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;if you do not fit into the " work hard to get ahead in life , further your education with this and that degree; than DO NOT EXPECT TO MAKE ANY FRIENDS HERE IN CONNECTICUT. THAT IS, UNLESS YOU GREW UP IN ONE OF THIS STATE'S MANY BLUE COLLAR TOWNS LIKE NAUGATUCK, WATERBURY, OR EAST HARTFORD, ARE STILL CATHOLIC AND CLOSE TO YOUR FAMILY , ETC.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;PUT SIMPLY, EVEN WHEN IT COMES TO MAKING FRIENDS IN THE GAY, LESBIAN, BISEXUAL, OR TRANSGENDER COMMUNITIES HERE IN&lt;br /&gt;CONNECTICUT, YOU HAVE TO FALL INTO ONE OF THE ABOVE CATEGORIES , OR YOU WILL BE A LONER!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;WHAT THE FUCK GOOD IS " EQUAL MARRIAGE " IF YOU WILL NEVER HAVE THE CHANCE TO FIND A SUITABLE PARTNER IN LIFE ? WHEN EVEN MANY OF THE FUCKING LESBIANS ARE A BUNCH OF STUCK THE FUCK UP , CORPORATE PROFESSIONAL , OR COLLEGIATE STUDYING TO BECOME ONE OF THOSE PROFESSIONALS ; BITCHES?????&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;GET MY POINT? even the woman whom was so big with Love Makes a Family&lt;br /&gt;[ www.lovesmakesafamilyct.org ] , anne stanback ; toward me has often acted like a " cunty" , professional , family-oriented bitch. as much as I really respect her and all that she has done so far to win us LGBT marriage and all . as much as I also respect Jerimarie lisegang , a sister transsexual woman like myself ; for allo that she has done for connecticut's transgender citizens with her CT transadvocacy coalition , I will have to say that she, too; acted fucking really CUNTY , toward me  after a while .&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;GET MY POINT ????? WHAT GOOD IS EQUAL MARRIAGE RIGHTS WHEN  YOU WILL NEVER , EVER, EVEN GET THE CHANCE TO MEET ANYBODY COMPATIBLE , WHEN EVEN EVERY FUCKING DYKE ON MATCH.CO M HERE IN CONNECTICUT, AND WESTCHESTER COUNTY NEW YORK FOR THE MOST PART; IS A  FUCKING " CUNTY" PROFESSIONAL, FORMALLY EDUCATED , SO CALLED " LIBERAL" WOMAN !&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;WHAT GOOD IS EQUAL MARRIAGE RIGHTS IN A STATE WHERE YOU, BECAUSE OF YOUR ATTITUDE TOWARD SUCCESS AND REFUSAL TO ACT IN THAT " DALE CARNEGIE" APPROVED MANNER OF BEHAVIOR ; WILL NEVER HOOK UP WITH ANYONE EVER??????&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;WHAT GOOD IS EQUAL MARRIAGE RIGHTS IF YOU ARE 1. L-G-B-T , and yes&lt;br /&gt;2. ARE NOT ONE OF THE CHOSEN MANY IN LIFE , WITH THAT GREAT CAREER and GREAT POSITIVE, HINT : PHONY - CAN DO, " LIFE IS GOOD!"  ATTITUDE????&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;IF YOU ARE NOT " ONE OF THEM" , THEN YOU WILL NEVER BE ABLE TO MEET ANYBODY SUITABLE FOR A LIFE PARTNERSHIP !&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;AND SO, WHAT GOOD IS LGBT MARRIAGE IN A PLACE WHERE I WILL NEVER BE ONE TO ENJOY WHAT THOSE CHOSEN " PROFESSIONALLY EMPLOYED" , ARTSY FARTSY , CULTURALLY, SOCIALLY, AND FUNCTIONALLY LITERATE; COUPLES GET TO ENJOY ?????&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;WHAT GOOD, FOR THOSE LIKE ME WHOM  NEVER MADE IT IN LIFE , IS LGBT EQUAL MARRIAGE ???????&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I OFTEN WONDER IF THINGS ARE FIXING TO BE ANY DIFFERENT WHEREVER I GO ???? OR WILL THE SAME BE TRUE OF EVERYWHERE????? WE WILL SEE, I GUESS.             &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;      &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/24283143-8762973648273972468?l=cheryloropal.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://cheryloropal.blogspot.com/feeds/8762973648273972468/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://cheryloropal.blogspot.com/2009/06/harlem-river-where-it-meets-east-river.html#comment-form' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24283143/posts/default/8762973648273972468'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/24283143/posts/default/8762973648273972468'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://cheryloropal.blogspot.com/2009/06/harlem-river-where-it-meets-east-river.html' title=''/><author><name>Cheryl</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/10239724355224966337</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='24' height='32' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_9HXCFGtdR64/SYvGAT9Xz_I/AAAAAAAAAvs/lerMOD449Hk/S220/Cheryl+Jan+2009+open+mike-+Ms.+Poetry+Bitch.JPG'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_9HXCFGtdR64/Sjc4nqIAaXI/AAAAAAAAA2M/Ai9CWidYnok/s72-c/last+trip+to+New+York+City+_20090603_0022.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24283143.post-1406235627514305473</id><published>2009-05-27T09:42:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2010-11-04T16:01:13.098-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='DREAMS OF CALIFORNICATION'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='OR OREGONICATION?'/><title type='text'></title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_9HXCFGtdR64/Sh1t6EHeMbI/AAAAAAAAA08/KUT29tA8Imc/s1600-h/deck+view+1.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_9HXCFGtdR64/Sh1t6EHeMbI/AAAAAAAAA08/KUT29tA8Imc/s400/deck+view+1.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5340545577436197298" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;the condo where I still live at, but soon will be venturing off from into a brave , new world of trying to survive , in inland central/south Oregon. along Lake court in heritage village.  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_9HXCFGtdR64/Sh1t53Nmq6I/AAAAAAAAA00/7l2yvusnGzI/s1600-h/Cheryl+Jan+2009+with+anne+marie+marra-+famous+poet.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_9HXCFGtdR64/Sh1t53Nmq6I/AAAAAAAAA00/7l2yvusnGzI/s400/Cheryl+Jan+2009+with+anne+marie+marra-+famous+poet.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5340545573972257698" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;center photo = me standing at the hudson valley writer's center where we have the open mike nights every third friday of each month ; unless a really bad snowstorm cancels it in winter. thinking back, while central Oregon has a winter with snow and all , in the lower elevations, it is nowhere near as fucked up confusing and bad as it is here in new york state, PA,  northern new jersey and new england. yes, they get down to the 10-20 degree mark as well , sometimes ; depending upon your local elevation . and this year, they'va had several nasty snow and ice storms out that way as far south and down in elevation as redding CA - 600 ft above sea level. but winters do NOT last as long as they do here in the northeast .&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;in the front of me is the late anne marie marra , of putnam valley , new york ; a great poet we often called " the poetry whore" [ her own title ! ] whom used to read both at the hudson valley[ sleepy hollow NY ]  every third friday night from 8-10/11:30 PM ; well as studio two in peekskill NY on the first friday night of the month. she died recently back in april of a heart attack, I believe . I though she was simply awesome and recently last month at the hudson valley writers open mike, we had a memorial service for her led by her now semi- famous writer brother, reggie marra of naugatuck CT . they both were originally from yonkers, NY , and so, how I knew them.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;anne marie read at those two poetry reading series I have gone to and still do,  and, occasionally; that fucking " ENLIGHTENED AND EDUCATED LIBERAL,  KUNT &amp;amp; COFFEE KLATCH " BETTER KNOWN AS THE BETHEL , WEDNESDAY NIGHT POETRY SERIES; HELD EVERY FUCKING WEDS. NIGHT AT BETHEL, CONNECTICUT'S MOLTEN JAVA COFFEE HOUSE. A PLACE SERVING UP MANY OVERPRICED AND OVERRATED FAVORITES SUCH AS CAPPUCINO` TO ALL THE YUPPIE TWATBAGS AND FUCKING WESTERN CONNECTICUT STATE UNIVERSITY " VICTIM FEMINISTS" ;   AS WELL AS THEIR COCK JOB , SHAVED HEAD WITH PIERCINGS, BOYFRIENDS!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;as you can tell, I have " much love" for all the people I have gotten to know here in fucking connecticut after returning from firts briefly living way up in central new york state , in meredith; a farming community of about 1, 300 people between delhi, NY [ 3,781] and oneonta [ about 20,000 ] , NY .  anyway , anna marie, I will miss, as same goes for my friends, sarah young [ garrison, NY ]   and&lt;br /&gt;shishi maisa [ fort montgomery, NY] . both from mthe hudson valley and peekskill readings.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;here in connecticut, I will miss my best friend of all, warren busha, as well as james buchanan [ aka: ' jenette' ] whom is also a writer. but I will be leaving with much bitterness , this from all the fucking people here in both westchester county , NY and especially CONNECTICUT AS A WHOLE; many of whom , I feel , both before and after, made me feel " wrong " for just being myself .&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;then again, maybe it is ME after all whom gets annoyed with how people expect one to act, dress, talk, etc. I am not into refined people, nor city dweller types such as most hip hop lovers,  and sometimes I wonder if I will just , very simply; feel alientaed wherever I live ????? maybe I want to be alienated ? as here in southbury and woodbury, I never wanted to become a part of anything here in town; even though I've met some really nice people in some of the groups I have attended but once or twice.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;anyway, speak of james , the writer whom works at fucking wal mart now , unfortunately after getting laid off from the cafeteria services company at bristol meyers in wallingford, CT some two months ago . I will be going over to the wallingford public library tonight at 6:30 PM to listen to some woman speaker talk about how to get your novel published . it should be awesome interesting  for sure. I will probably wear my new sundress I got at Kmart last week.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;in other news, the california supreme court ruled monday that proposition 8 is totally valid  and will stand ; something that sucks for the many LGBT people in california . those whom did marry during that brief time from march till november's election day ballot question in 2008 ; will be able to stay married , I hear . now fucking oregon has the same law worded differently as " measure 36" or "measure 38" , I think .&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;in other words, the fucking asshole " christian" fundamentalists , along with many catholics whom are complete shitheads and listen to that god dammed Nazi German Pope fucker , benedict II ; got all alarmed and figured this would be the end of their " sacred" fucking  heterosexual marriage as we know it. which is total major fucking bullshit , as so many of those marriges don't even last nearly as long as how long tammy lynn smith ? I think; has been partnered with her spouse, the well-known MELISSA ETHERIDGE. FORMERLY OF LEAVENWORTH, KANSAS- YES, KANSAS! YOU GOD DAMN SACKS OF CHRISTO-FASCIST SHIT WHOM ONLY THINK YOU KNOW THE HISTORIAL JESUS !&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;anyway, speak of catholics and oregon, I just sincerely hope that my neice, jamie , is NOT among the many catholics whom can count themrselves to be some of the most IGNORANT SONS OF BITCHES THAT AMERICA CAN CALL " WHOLESOME" AND "MORAL"  CITIZENS!!!! she married this guy , rick, whose whole family is catholic , whom insisted upon them both having this big, formal  to the&lt;br /&gt;nine west's ; huge family wedding at some rich people's resort in southern oregon.&lt;br /&gt;  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_9HXCFGtdR64/Sh1t5SzsT9I/AAAAAAAAA0s/1tBb-0ybpEc/s1600-h/Cheryl+Jan+2009+open+mike-+Ms.+Poetry+Bitch.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_9HXCFGtdR64/Sh1t5SzsT9I/AAAAAAAAA0s/1tBb-0ybpEc/s400/Cheryl+Jan+2009+open+mike-+Ms.+Poetry+Bitch.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5340545564199899090" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="color: rgb(204, 51, 204);"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;speak of " poetry whores" this here is the " Poetry Kunt " , better known as Cheryl Lynne Oropal . yes, this was me at that hudson valley writer's open mike back in jan 2009 , a very cold night where the temps. outside were about 4 below zero when I finally left after midnight with maureen hatch ; the woman whom I was slowly becoming friends with but that died off after she got all " cunty" over something I said about her in fucking facebook's stupid " kiss and tell game" called 8-BALL. when it asked the general question if I ever had a crush on maureen , I said I did , sort of, because I found her to be nicer than so many of the so called " feminist" c
