"There's something that straight people just don't get about gay people, something that we do. Gee, don't know how to say this but--we look exactly like you! Yes, it would be easier if we were purple with horns, but this way we are able to walk among you!" -Elvira Kurt

She's such an awesome comedian. And no, I didn't get hooked on her just because she's a lezzy (that just happened to be an added bonus); she's genuinely funny.

"At this point the audience thinks: 'Wait, so if you're a lesbian... and we were laughing at you... does that mean... that we're gay?' Let me just clear this up for all of you: yes, you are."

"I didn't start doing gay jokes because I didn't know I was gay. I just thought I was different... because I was doing comedy... And that is a queer thing to do, right there!"

And on that queer-themed comedy show on Showtime: "This has been another edition of Queertime. Viewing this program does not in any way make you gay. But, if you watch it one more time, you're an official bisexual."

Anyways, today was... asi asi. Nothing too remarkable besides me going to shop at the Goodwill store (and finding one of those now hard-to-find red DARE shirts, along with a first-print edition of Positively Gay circa 1979), sleeping in my room after reading one of the essays in my book, getting woken up just so the family could go eat at 5'n'Diner, and me being generally quiet with my head down throwing dagger stares at people when they addressed me.

At least I finally got 'round to burning that Ash remix CD. Now I can listen to "Angel Interceptor" without the computer!

(speaking of which: the monitor's starting to show signs of aging. yes, it spontaneously turns off)
