Well, as you know my Name is George, I am gay, I was first diagnosed with HIV on April 4, 1994, in Denver Colorado. I was diagnosed with full blown Aid's in November 1999. I quit the work atmosphere in early 2000 after realizing I was calling out sick more then I actually worked. I have just returned back to work though only part-time in November 2002. I met my partner Michael in Denver Colorado in Aug of 1997, We have lived in many places together. I have never been involved with a woman nor has there ever been a desire to be with one. I love animals, kids I can deal with on a need to be basis. I love country music, though I grew up in Jersey my background will always be country, there once was a time when a lot of New Jersey was farms and country not that many would know that today but there is some place we came up with the name the garden state. I am a non-drug user well lets rephrase that after all I do have Aid's I am a non-illegal drug user. Nondrinker, and yes Gays can be Christians also. I don't think of myself as your typical Christian, I think of Christianity like Touched by an Angel on Pax TV would. I love certain sitcoms like Smallville, Reba, Everybody loves Raymond, yea OK I guess I like WB 11 TV. When I became an adult I worked a lot never really had time or the effort in me to run with the crowd or have hobbies outside of work.
I don't have many hobbies, Lately here I have taken up sewing with my Mom's old machine I think this could become a great thing for me once I learn how to put the machine on, (LOL). I learned how to two step in Denver, CO, then I thought I knew how to two step until moving to Oklahoma wow can those people in Oklahoma dance. I started playing darts when I met my second partner in Denver, CO, from time to time I still play darts. I guess my favorite hobby would be helping people next to that would be the Internet and the computer. My partner introduced me to Cyber Land I instantly fell in love with the computer though it is a love-hate relationship I have with this here machine, when it works and does what I want I love it when it tells me illegal function or system must be shut down, etc., etc. I hate it. I have tried many Internet providers but have always come back to AOL having to start all over again.
I am the third of my parent's four children, I try and succeed at being a very neat and orderly guy, I am a definite animal lover mostly of dog's, my favorite breed at this point in time is Beagle's. My partner and I adopted a Basset-Beagle from the St.Louis Humane Society while we were living in Missouri she is a wonderful friend and after reading up on basset and beagles, it is obvious to my partner and I both that Daisey May is mostly Beagle. I only had one other dog in my life that I felt this close to and on December 19, 1983, he was killed along the side of the road. I am amazed by animals of all kinds.
I enjoy country music, older cars and a simple way of life. I am very close to my family currently these days, there was a time when we had our hardships over my lifestyle and way of life, but a few family tragedies later we have overcome those issues. I left NJ when I was just passed my 20th birthday, at the time I wanted to see what was out there beyond the tri-state area, I have lived in many places and some places two or three times. Friends and familles have a Phone Book for address's and then a George phone book. My partner and I decided in 1999 that we needed to find a way to relocate to New Jersey but the high cost of living in Jersey kept us out west longer then we predicted.
On my spare time I work on our home, I am the type of guy that constantly needs change, the furniture is never in the same place as it was a week ago and most times the furniture itself is not even the same. I visit my family on a daily basis, and try to help out as many people as I can fit into the twenty-four hour day. I am not your T-shirt type of guy, I have always been a pressed long sleeve shirt type of guy. (Though I do not have any anything against t-shirt type guys)I am very out spoken about my HIV status, and even more out spoken about my lifestyle. I am a democrat not just because of my lifestyle but also because I feel we all have a right to live our lives as we want. I don't have many favorites. The thing I miss most about being a gay man is I know I would make a wonderful Father, not that if I had been born straight I would have any kids of my own, being who I am and seeing the world through my own eyes I would have adopted a child no preference to a boy or girl. I have never been known to hang out with people of my own age group though here lately I am growing older myself so the age gaps aren't as severe as they once were. My best friend as a teen-ager was my Grandmother she passed on Febuary 28,1997 Visit the page I made and dedicate to her located at http://george_watrous.tripod.com/Granny/
Into my adult life a met an older woman that owned an Antique Store in Garfield NJ she and I became very close after moving out west, I met an older man that became my roommate, not sugar daddy we were just roommate's he had his room I had my room and both beds were used on a nightly basis.
These days my Partner our dog and my Mom are my life. My partner and I are very much alike yet so different. I have come to know that I do dislike the human race more and more everyday, I believe money is the root of most of the evil in our lives. I do my best to spread the smile, I can usually turn any angry customer into a very satisfied and happy person before they leave me. I am the guy who will strike up a conversation with all the people in the line at the grocery store. I dislike how parents are being forced to raise their children these days. There is no uniform or discipline that I see of. Parents in today's world are to scared to discipline their children in fear they will be locked up and their kids taken away. I don't believe in aggressive beating but punishment and discipline is needed. I feel if the government continues to restrict the parents on their rights to raise their children that the world will be a very scary place to live in 50 years from now. I watch as the parent's and children come through my store I work at, Mom will say no if the kid is under seven years old he/she will throw a fit getting the attention of everyone in hearing distance if they are over seven they will yell words that I even as an adult would not even speak in front of my parents. Eventually I watch the child regardless of age get their way as the parent just hurriedly gets done in the store. The thing I hate worst is animal abuse, child abuse can be reported and taken care of spouse abuse the abused person can get up and pack their bags and be gone. But animals have no protection they can't talk they can't run away in most cases, all they can do is sit there and be miserable waiting for the pet angel to come for them. When a person adopts a pet they are adopting a child, and most people feel as if pets are possessions they are not, they were put here as God's creation and we have adapted them and spoiled them into our human ways, so now that we have done that we should take responsibility for them. Having your pet spayed or neutered is the first of that responsibility. There are so many unwanted pets in this world why let you dog bring another twenty or thirty of them here in their lifetime. I have a big heart when it comes to animals but I also know my limitations and it hurts me so much when I pass a stray pet on the street.
Do you think you know me?
Here are a few hints if you do.
