according to a lot of people, Portsmouth would be considered a gay mecca in New Hampshire. everyone who hung out in downtown knows about Outright is, and if nothing else they know the legend that is George aka The Queen of Downtown (sorry Robin, but you're easily the first runner up).
while working in Portsmouth/Newington, i wouldn't have been able to tell. granted, i had a few interesting admirers: while working at Gloria Jean's/Halloween Scene there was Sean at Trade Secret and that wierd preoperative transexual whose name i don't remember (or really care to), at Genip Tree there was that guy from Terra Mogra who was charged with prostitution (though he claimed to have just been at "the wrong place at the wrong time".... yeah... having sex for money, you freak!), at Friendly's in Portsmouth there was that wierd kid who wore body glitter all the time that was friends with Chris and one of our dish washers... who subsequently got into a car accident and i thankfully didn't need to deal with afterward, and who could forget the loveable antics of transvestite Zack? however, as their descriptions suggest, none of them were really people i was interested in (unless that interest was pertaining to people i may want to file a restraining order against).
in Exeter, i've been hit on twice, recieved a phone number from someone's fag hag, and just recently had someone else leave me their e-mail address! more to the point, all of these people were seemingly normal individuals (though one was in his late 30s/early 40s). what's up with that?! i just sent an e-mail to the most recent of these, which is what prompted this post. what i'm wondering is though... am i doing something different? if i am, what, and how do i use this new power for evil?
