Still Straight

9/4/11

Went to a gay bar tonight. Kimber has a new BFF and I'm out : ) Kegan has a couple of gay friends and we all went out.

I shouldn't have gone with them just because I decided earlier today to get drunk at the pool and set about my goal with zest, meeting it with great success. After getting pissed and stumbling around for awhile at the pool, I changed to water and began to sober up. Of course that left me really too tired to go out but I ate and took a nap and got ready to go and because I don't go out too often, out I went.

It's small place on a back road in Ocala called the "Pub". They have a drag show on Saturday nights but as Laurie pointed out via text message "those Ocala "girls" are burly". Which turned out to be very true.

It was a shame I was too tired because it would have been fun and there was no weird pressure on my side because Kegan was there. They were all over him. He's a young good looking kid. He danced (slow) with a queen...twice. The second dance had some--well, ass rubbing. Very gay, and good for the queen I guess.

Everyone was very nice and the only mistake I think I made was politely lighting the cigarette of an aging and worn out queen who took the opportunity to rub my arm (a little creepily) and asked what was wrong because I didn't look to be enjoying myself. I was enjoying myself a hell of a lot more before that moment I can assure you.

The vast majority of the time I sat at the bar and tried to stay as close as possible to Kimber which proved difficult because she got very involved with Ocala's gay community tonight. I am however, very glad she had such a great time.

All is well and I am still very straight. It was an experience but regret not being rested enough to have more fun.

Apparently most people thought I was scared and though I may have looked it I was not. Mostly.

Batman Forever was on the TV over the bar and I watched most of it. That's the one with Robin and appropriate I think for a gay bar experience.

It is now 20 after 3 a.m. and exhausted I will try to sleep. One second, one minute, one hour...I continue and survive.
