I Knew When

I got to work half my day from home yesterday and was able to indulge myself in such treasures as Beverly Hills 90210 and Oprah.

After learning valuable life lessons about AIDS on 90210, I switched the channel to see who was on Oprah and she was doing an episode on "When I knew I was gay"... So people like Carson Kressey (Queer Eye for the Straight Guy) divulged he knew he was gay when he was 4 and was in love with Lee Majors (that wasn't his story but it was someone's) But I'm watching the photo montage of a 4 year old Carson in smart polyester suits carrying women's handbags when I recalled that I knew I was a geek magnet at 3.



Yes, I think I first knew I was a geek magnet when I was 3 and I made Potsie from Happy Days my boyfriend. Yes, I came into the kitchen where my mom was puttering and she asked me what I was doing. I answered that I was on a date. She asked with whom? I say, Potsie... Just so matter of fact. Whenever I was scooting around, I had my boyfriend Potsie with me.

Yup, my fate was sealed a loooooong time ago.

I hope that one day if I'm ever immortal, someone doesn't bring him to me as a gag. You know, I'm sitting on Oprah's couch & he's brought out to give me a hug & a kiss on the cheek, everyone claps. So that the joke is that all of my fantasies have come true.

Because if someone is really going to indulge my fantasies, I've got this list I've been compiling of late & well.... it's not fit for this venue.... maybe I can call up that cab driver that likes pain.. he'll know what to do.
