Don't forget to cup da balls... vuduchyl April 21 2006, 04:20:36 UTC
The first time was at Hudson's, I believe. I reserved my judgment then 'cause, well, he was being a complete dick to you, and you weren't really yourself.

Years later, I can't remember exactly when, you grew on me. You're the only man—only transvestite, for that matter—I've made out with in front of a audience. (Or not in front of an audience. In fact, you're the only man I've made out with, period, though I've had my thumb up Cash's ass.) You're probably the only man I've had naked in my bedroom. I even cupped your balls once, for crissakes, if I recall correctly. So whatever you did to make a better impression, it obviously worked for me.

Silliness aside, you've a sharp wit and a frightening amount of acting talent. You're usually the one giving us a bizarre twist on reality that is at once disturbing and enlightening. Probably no one displays such deep sympathy towards, concern for, and devotion to his friends than you.

And, of course, the fact that we're still friends now, though perhaps not as close as before, speaks volumes.

Whoever this was, I'd wager, was hiding behind "most people" to justify their own reservations, share the burden of their own guilt for not accepting you right away. I'm not so sure it's worth cutting them out completely (sorry, Angela—my philosophy on such matters has changed over the years), but try to chalk it up to human frailty and forgive them anyhow if you can. That's a peculiarly strong quality of yours.
