CHRISTOPHER JOSEPH PETERSEN IN THE NURTURING ARMS OF DAX GREGORY MICHAELS!

OR AS IT NOW APPEARS,

(DAX GREGORY MICHAELS IN THE NURTURING ARMS OF CHRISTOPHER JOSEPH PETERSEN!)

Many people speak of getting in touch with their inner selves.

Well, I did and my inner self's name is Dax (Gregory) Michaels. 

I first created Dax Michaels as an online alias at a time when putting personal information online was still a ponderous subject.

Since then, I have gotten completely over the uneasiness of using my real name Christopher Joseph Petersen online and readily do so.

However, Dax Michaels had already established himself as a familiar name!

Many internet denizens had heard of Dax Michaels but not of Christopher Joseph Petersen.

Then I pondered switching everything over to my real name!

But after giving it some thought, I figured, why get should I get rid of DAX?

Should I get rid of DAX on account of other people's perceived notions of how they would/could interpret this?

NO!!!

Wouldn't this be a conforming action?

YES!!!

Wouldn't this conforming action be an insult to my butch, macho, I'm-in-control personality?

YES!!!

BESIDES, I LIKE MY DAX MICHAELS IDENTITY!!!

HE WAS MY BAD-BOY IMAGE! AND FOR SOMEONE WHO HAD SPENT HIS EARLY YOUTH STUDYING AND BEING A GOOD BOY, MY BAD BOY PERSONIFICATION WAS QUITE A WELCOME CHANGE!!!

BESIDES, THE DAX MICHAELS BAD-BOY IMAGE GOT CHRISTOPHER JOSEPH PETERSEN TO GET IN TOUCH WITH HIS INNER SELF AND BECOME THE MAN HE ALWAYS WANTED TO BE AND NOW LIVE THE LIFE HE ALWAYS DREAMED OF LIVING!!!

HEY, I'M DOING MY THING BECAUSE; AS HAS BEEN SAID, THIS LIFE HAS NO DRESS REHEARSALS!!!

Just Hang In LONG Enough

The signs are getting clearer, clearer than you need
The writing's on the wall, for you to see

You never thought you'd ever get the taste
You never thought that it could be this good
Just tell me what you want and I'll find the key
Reach out and touch it's all yours.

If you hang in long enough, you'll do it
Just hang in long enough

You're down on the ground , or so you say
You'd sell the hole in your pocket, if you could find a way
Don't ask me how I know, you don't wanna hear
It's been a long hard road, and the end is getting near.

You never thought you'd ever get the chance
You never thought your break would come along
If you tell me what you want, I'll find the key
Just reach out and touch it's all yours

If you hang in ...

They always say
The best things in life are free
But you want to have everything
Well you're going to have to beg if you want it all.

So hang in long enough, you'll do it
Hang in long enough

They'll let you out, the n pull you in
Playing hell with your emotions,
You'll feel like giving in.

So just hang in long enough ...
