That That Don't Kill Me

Welcome to my page. If you live in Johnson County, chances are you recognize me, but the name is Garret Pierce. Yes, I am that Garret and yes, I am gay. You, more than likely, have a problem with it, so instead of sending me any hate for something I can't change, you can focus on the other thing I can't change. My great skills on the football field as the Rio Vista Dragons' Team Captain and Wide Receiver.

You know I thought that taking someone’s clothes while they’re showering was a guy thing. I hope they know I have no problem walking home in a towel. 

[receivingpierce]

Sorry to hear that you got pranked. Hopefully the walk home won't be too terrible.

[receivingpierce]

Ugh, I hate Wednesdays.

[lanaxhearst-blog]

Wednesdays are pretty pointless days, what even happens on wednesday anyways? Nothing.

[receivingpierce]

I actually have to agree with that. At least, I always saw them as pointless growing up, even before realizing that I didn't exactly fit into the church's view of a "good Christian".

And don't even get me started on those that call the day "Hump Day". As far as I'm concerned, they're a breed of people I don't want to associate with.

[receivingpierce]

Ugh, I hate Wednesdays.

They're almost as bad as Sundays.

Do I want to go to church and be subjected to stares, or should I just stay at home since I'm damned regardless?

Remind me --

Never to drink anything carbonated before a test again.  I think I nearly bounced my way out of my seat instead of actually concentrating on the darn thing.

[receivingpierce]

Probably not a good idea. Maybe next time you could trade the soda for a peppermint or a piece of gum.

[tasteofstella]

Okay fabulous! At least we both agree. But next time you’re hosting a pity party I’d like a formal invite. 

[receivingpierce]

I don't see why anyone needs an invite for something that's not even happening but sure, end the conversation. It's no skin off my back and it's certainly not a grand prize talking to you, either.

Y’know Pierce, I’m surprised you can even see us peasants from up upon your high horse.

[receivingpierce]

Did I ever do anything to you to warrant this hostility? I know we're supposed to be rivals, but there's really no need to be this upset that I was giving the truth, or at least what I view as the truth from what I've seen.

[tasteofstella]

Good, because I don’t exactly want to attend your pathetic little pity party you have going on here. Too much of a downer. And you don’t seem like you’re willing to put much into the conversation so…see you around?

[receivingpierce]

Considering you haven't really put too much into this conversation either, you can't really put all the blame on me. But fine. Go ahead and end this conversation. It's no skin off my back.

[theroyaltyhelacked-blog-blog]

Yeah, but in Grandview, our teachers aren’t hardheaded idiots.

[receivingpierce]

They have hardheaded idiots wherever you go. It's not something you magically avoid by going to a different town.

Besides, I said that because "my brother ate my homework" sounds a lot like the whole "my dog ate my homework" excuse, and no teacher would believe that. I, unlike you, wasn't making it a rivalry thing. That's the truth.

[the-bonnieandnotclyde-blog]

I’d hope you all weren’t. You got bigger things to worry about on Friday nights than the people on the sidelines.

[receivingpierce]

Well, that and I don't really like looking at the cheerleaders, even when I'm not on the field. No offense, you all are very pretty, but not my thing.

[receivingpierce]

Not really looking forward to the end of the season.

[invisiqb2-blog]

That’s a really good way to think about it.

I know, man, I know. Well you seem like a nice guy, I don’t think anybody should be giving you hell ‘bout something like that. ‘Pose a lot of people ‘round here just haven’t seen something like this, ya’know? I mean, I know I haven’t. Still no reason to be dumb ‘bout it. Long as you don’t mind, I can’t help but be a lil’ curious, ya’know? Hearin’ so much ‘bout ‘Garrett Pierce’ and all. Thanks, man… I guess it is. I haven’t checked in awhile, but when I tried out they told me 58, I think.

[receivingpierce]

It's the right way to look at it. Some people just take the rivalry a little too far.

Thanks, I try to be. It doesn't really change anything, but I figure you catch more flies with honey than vinegar. Maybe, or maybe they're just so dug into their old-fashioned morals that they can't envision anything else besides man and woman. I get it, and if you have anything else you want to ask, just go ahead. Really? Huh. Well, if you ever feel up for it, we could meet up and I could see just how far you throw. Of course, not the same as actually playing and having linebackers targeting you, but still it should be fun.

It was nice to know what I was actually cheerin’ for every now and again, rather than just shaking a set of pom poms for everything that happened to look remotely positive. Helped a lot with not makin’ absolute fools of the squad.

[receivingpierce]

Guess that is true, though I don't really pay attention to the squad so it's not really something I'd know about.

[receivingpierce]

Not really looking forward to the end of the season.

[invisiqb2-blog]

I’ll keep you in mind, man, thanks…

'Pose you get a lot of hell 'bout, huh? I mean—that's nosey of me to ask, isn't it? I'm sorry. It's none of my business, honest. I'm not a nosey person, I swear. Well yeah, I'm the QB2, so I don't get much play time, ya'know..?

[receivingpierce]

No problem. Just because we may be rivals on the field it doesn't mean we have to be rivals off of it.

I do, actually. A lot. It sucks but... It's Johnson County, you know? And no, you're fine. Your questions are a refreshing change of pace, trust me. I know, but still, to be a player for the Eagles is pretty impressive, even if you don't get much time. What's the farthest you can throw?

[goodgolly-missmollyxoxxxx]

I found a penny on the street today!

[goodgolly-missmollyxoxxxx]

You’re definitely right.  I wonder what I would even do if I found more money just lying on the street - like, how would I know who to return it to?

[receivingpierce]

That would depend on if people were honest and if they'd actually say who it was that dropped it, but since this is the real world, you'd have people who'd probably lie and say that it's their own.
