Rusty’s first post
Hello all of Yen’s blog readers. This is Rusty. I figured I would write at least one entry on here - we’ll see if he lets me write any future ones. 
To be honest, although I have of course known about Yen’s blog for the past few years, I have not visited the site, since I was worried that some of the material on here might make me sad.
Yen is such a gifted poet, and I know that having read many of his poems, most of them have me a bit downbeat. Even though they are so well written, so many of them are about death, and graves, and well, you get the picture.
I am writing from the Florida Keys. Yen and I are here at an extremely gay Bed & Breakfast, and my father is in visiting for a few days from Mississippi. It’s been a while since I last saw him. With his hairy chest and beer belly, I think he actually fits in better here than Yen and I do, since this is really more of a 40+ bear crowd.
I’ve been feeling so-so since we got here. I was sick all day yesterday and as a result, just sort of sat there during dinner, only able to eat half the bowl of potato soup I ordered.
This once again is contributing to Yen becoming more and more frustrated about everything.
Hell, if I can’t even enjoy a decent meal with him, then it’s like he’s taking care of an invalid, isn’t it? I am just hoping this surgery that I have coming up in about 10 days will take out a lot of tumor and make me feel better.
Everyone keep your fingers crossed!
Thanks to everyone who reads Yen’s blog. He’s such an amazing person that I wish everyone of you could meet him in person. I’m so proud to have him as my boyfriend.

FIRST! Because I am a loser who is still working at 3am, and procrastinating to boot.
Hello Jesse! It is great to hear from you. I know Yen from work. Sounds like you guys are having a great time in Florida — wish I were there (sigh… need a vacation BADLY)! But I am more desirous of your lovely NY apartment with the red walls.
All the best with your upcoming surgery. I’m sure Yen will tell us how it goes, and do write again if you can (I’m sure Yen will let you, lah). I’m keeping my fingers and toes crossed!

Hi Jesse, it’s good to hear from you. Glad to know that the two of you are on vacation getting away from it all.
Fingers crossed for the surgery! Our thoughts are with the both of you.

It’s so nice that both of you are proud of each other.

Hi Jesse, how nice to finally “meet” you. You are right, Yen is a great guy, and so are you. I pray that this surgery is extremely successful and that you are on the road to recovery very soon.

Yen is indeed an amazing person. I’m also immensely happy that he’s my friend. Hugs to you and Yen!

Jesse — it IS wonderful to meet you - even through just a post. You both are such amazing people…and I’ve said it before (and of course, will again) … you epitomize the phrases … for better or worse, in sickness or in health … You two make such a couple … and complement each other in so many ways …
My thoughts/prayers are with both/each of you … and Jesse — especially during the upcoming surgery ….
now, as the the 40+ bear crowd … just tell everyone you’re cubs in training or such …. LOL
>HUGE HUGE bear hug

Yen is a sweetheart and it’s very nice to hear from his muse, inspiration of his devotion.
You are both always in my prayers
Have a good time on your getaway!
