• Shafted!

    I’ve been wanting to write this story for a while, but I can’t find the one picture I have of it. Oh well, when I find it I’ll just add it on to the end. Full from dinner, we get into the elevator as we always do. The rumor is that the more likely one…

  • I Have an Advertiser!

    Today is a big day for btyb. Why? I have an actual advertiser besides google. Actually, google has recently been paying me about twice what I used to get. I have no idea why. My best guess is that they’re getting better at figuring out what sorts of ads are appropriate for my site, and…

  • Japan is Better than the US

    Instead of writing a million more posts about Japan, I’m going to finish it off here so that I can start writing other things. When you boil all of my experiences in Japan down, you’re left with one common theme – Japan is way better than the US. In America we’re all so proud that…

  • I’m Pregnant

    A monday afternoon some time ago, she texts me with, “Call me. It’s important.” Strange. I’m in the car, so I ponder what’s so important as we drive back to the office. I can’t figure it out. We get to the office and I step into the echoey stairwell for some semblance of privacy. I…

  • Sad

    Since Krunkaoke got shut down, I go to Rain every Wednesday. It’s a gay club that does Karaoke on Wednesday nights. They have a good selection of songs, a cool light up stage, and a laid back attitude towards me including “nigga” in all of my songs. The downside is that I get hit on…
