February
1993
This picture was taken after my sister's wedding at the Fort Worth Club downtown. I was only 17 years old, and I absolutely can't stand tuxedos, I decided on that day. My sister later divorced the guy she married and moved on to bigger, better things...
March
1996
This is the first of three cruises I've been one. We were on the ms. Noordam stopping in Ocho Rios, Jamaica for the day. It was pretty hot there, but the people are very laid back and friendly. Each store I went into offered me a sample of their local rum. Twenty shots later, this photo was taken...Was I drunk? Guess... When I got back to my room on the ship (pictured behind me) I threw up twice and missed the shipwide party going on while I stayed in bed & ordered tea.
October 1996
That Spring, I went to Alaska to an
Eskimo village called Kotzebue with my family, and there I met a girl named
Sidney who wanted me to keep in touch. She also wanted a picture of me, so
I got my brother to take about a dozen pictures of me in my parents backyard by
the swimming pool. This was one of them. In the end, I couldn't make
up my mind which one to send her, so I sent her all of them. We still talk
occasionally, but she's a busy girl in college now.
MARCH 1998
Living it up at the Hotel Novanox in
Paris, France. France is a very different country from the U.S., as are
most European nations. Old buildings are preserved, not torn down. I
had spent all day at a food/wine/antique fair just outside Paris, and it was
great being able to enjoy the sunshine without sweating, something you don't get
to do much of in Texas...
May 1998
Totally buzzing at my 23rd birthday
party at my sister Cathy's house. Pictured here is Eric, a most great and
well-respected friend. We always make each other laugh, and he has a
kick-ass sense of humor. We've been through more things than almost anyone
else I know. He recently got a Master's in Psychology. I've known
him longer than all my other current friends. Believe it or not, we met in
HUMAN SEXUALITY class in college, of all places......... Our gaydars detected
each other from the beginning, and the craziness continues...
JUNE 1998
Standing outside a quaint log cabin
restaurant in Canon Beach, Oregon. The food here was great (continental
& seafood) and had two fireplaces inside. I went to Oregon with my
boyfriend at the time, Robert Cox. He took me there to attend his friends
wedding. Oregon was really enjoyable. The breezy coast at Canon
Beach, the northwest flavor of coffee shops and alternative music, and the
clean, cool weather are things you don't see everywhere in Texas......
AUGUST,
1998
Outside a cafe on some Spanish islands in the middle of the Mediterranean Sea, as part of my second cruise. We stopped at Spain, Monaco, Italy, and the Vatican. I especially enjoyed the Isle Of Capri. This time, the ship was named the SS Rembrandt.
August
1998
After dinner coffee aboard the SS Rembrandt on the same cruise as the above picture. The restaurant on the ship was one of many. The food at this restaurant was unmatched to any restaurants I've been to in Fort Worth. One day they had an all-you-can-eat buffet of King crab legs............ I'm getting hungry already.
OCTOBER
1998
Me and Eric (my priceless friend) at a Halloween party. Eric was dressed up as a Pimp Daddy, and I was his all-too-eager-to-please call boy/slave. Eric won 1st place!! We had a great time and BOY was it a FUCKED UP evening!!

MARCH
1999
This picture was a totally candid shot as I was taking Eric and his "then" boyfriend Jay (who I might add turned out to be the biggest back-stabbing a**hole we had ever met) to San Antonio, Texas. We strolled the tree-lined River Walk and shopped, as well as dining at outdoor cafes there.
SEPTEMBER
1999
I had a totally awesome day here at Gay Day Six Flags. It was actually a coincidence that my college friend Kim called me up and asked me if I wanted to go to Six Flags with her, and it also happened to be Gay Day, although she didn't know it. Even though I met up with almost two dozen of my friends there, it was a nice "date" with Kim. Here I am pictured near the front entrance of the park.
December
1999
Okay, so my eyes are shut... From left to right is James, me, and Casey. They are cool friends I met through a great gay educational/social group that meets Friday nites. Here we are pictured at a Christmas party around the 18th of the month. The food and drinks were great, but I will tell you: the eggnog was so alcoholic that it tasted like Draino!!
APRIL
2000
OK, either me and Anthony were in the middle of an argument, or I missed the boat on the River Walk, , or I just found out we were the last gay people in San Antonio......... I don't know what, but I look pretty pissed off in this picture LOL. Yes, I'm back in San Antonio again, but this time with Anthony, his mom Dalene, and my friend Zebulon. We stayed in an exclusive bed & breakfast, "The Painted Lady Inn on Broadway". It was very luxurious and extraordinary. I felt honored to be in such a great place owned by gays FOR gays.
September
2001
Again here at Gay Day at Six Flags Over Texas. Here I am with
Chris, a friend and actor who stars in great plays at Sage & Silo, a
gay-owned theatre in Fort Worth
DECEMBER 2001
After a long break, I've decided to add another photo. This is a webcam picture my brother Greg took of me (a slightly blurry one; it's a cheap webcam lol) So yes I'm still adding pictures and haven't fallen off the face of the earth :)
February 2002
Lounging around and testing a new digital camera on a lazy Saturday.
Me and my old, old minivan with nearly 200,000 miles on it. I'm looking into getting a dark green convertible...
