The Hissy Pedestrian

What do you do when your both stupid and uncoordinated. You find a sport that's easy....you can't beat walking. It's good for you and it always gives you something to gripe about. I shall share with all of you my adventures walking around my favorite city.

Cntrl Alt Delete-Reboot

Dear Pedestrian's,

I lost my voice. Seriously, it's gone. I went to the doctor on Sunday and he directed to remain home. It's only been 1.5 months into the year and I've called in sick twice. Obviously, there must be something wrong with what I'm doing. I saw two magazines sitting on my table. The first one is "YES! Magazine" which talks about how are progressives are actually doing things correctly. The second one is a PETA magazine I stole from the food place "Monty's Blue Plate Diner" which has a small amount of vegan selections.  I have gone vegan before....about 8 months and lost 50 lbs. I've still maintained that amount off. I wonder if I could get 50 more. I mean look at that studly boyfriend (fiance)...guy on left of mine. DAMN!

He's such a keeper. I always say, "blah, I'm too fat."

His response: "You're beautiful the way you are, I wouldn't change a thing about you."

I honestly didn't believe people like him exist...but I guess I was wrong. I want to be the best person for him. I'm the luckiest mo in the world. My partner is a soldier in the United States Army.  Even though the U.S. Military see eye to eye on......nothing. I'm proud of him. Who would have thought a granola crunching, near pacifist would fall in love with a soldier. I suppose stranger things would happen.

There are few things in this world I like. I like to eat and I love to walk (mentioned before).

Today, I was walking downtown. It was over 60 minutes from my house to downtown ;). I reached my first complaint.

BIKERS >O HISSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

Bikers, the sidewalk belongs to my fat ass. GET OFF MY SIDEWALK. You have 5 million plus lanes. Now, I'm not going to squish my fat ass and run up the snow bank so you can ride fast as hell down MY SPACE which is ILLEGAL for you to be driving on (in certain areas of they city). So please, take your two wheel abomination and get back on the road so you can get hit by cars.

Thank you!

Sincerely yours,

The Hissy Pedestrian

27 years.......

Happy Birthday to ME :D. I figure there is no better way to celebrate than creating a new blog that I probably won't keep up with. However, why wouldn't I?

For one thing, my partner of over a year has joined the military. Yes, I am male, yes, I love men, yes my partner is male......makes things a little complicated. Currently, he has passed basic training and I'm going to see him in the great state of South Carolina. The only state where they feel it is necessary to remind America how backwards they are by displaying the Confederate flag at the state capital. There's no place like home....Currently, my Ork (nickname) is asked for my hand in marriage in state where it's illegal (an punishable with 9 months in prison....not interested).

I'm from the People's Republic of Madison where you can be gay, green and happy. There is no happier place on Earth in my humble opinion (other than Marquette maybe). I am...slightly obsessed with the people and the culture there. Madison is emerging as a first rate city and with that,there are some growing pains coming along the way. I'm rather excited to ride these out.

If you haven't noticed, my favorite activity in the world is simple....walking. I walk everywhere. I plan on picking up the habit and walking 6 miles home from work everyday and I plan on blogging about it. Walking....makes for a happy a mo. My mother an partner hate that I walk around the city like it's some sort of magical playground. I can't help it gives me such joy to walk around a great city like Madison.

Well, time to celebrate my birthday in style.
