To Be a Man
I was depressed most of the week. To the point that I didn’t really get anything done at all until about Wednesday. I’m feeling much better now.
Tonight was really good. I didn’t much care for the birthday party that we went to, but that’s okay. It was mostly just the company that was a bit boring. Beforehand, we rand some errands and afterward we saw a movie and went back and watched some of his Will & Grace DVDs. It was just nice, because it was a fairly engaging evening. We did lots of stuff together. Much better than most visits.
The other day, my manhood was called into question. I don’t know what other people think of me, but apparently not too highly of me. It really kind of hurt. I basically considered myself a good man. Apparently that’s wrong on the account that there’s no way I could be a man, period. I hate being told that I can’t do something. Am I really that much of a sissy? Does sissiness really have anything to do with manhood? I wonder what it takes to be a man?

It takes one thing to be a man, my friend, and that is a lifetime membership in the PEN15 club. Would you like to join the PEN15 club? I’ll have to write PEN15 on your hand.
