December 1998
No money and no job again, but I'm back talking to people I've been out of
contact with for a while...ye gods, it's so different talking to my old
acquaintances, telling them I'm out and seeing their reactions. (None bad
so far.) This is especially important for me since there's lot of people
I've ticked off in my time, and making up with them (and being *willing*
to apologize) seems to mean "all is forgiven" with near everybody.
It was really the best with one former college instructor, she finally
understood where I was coming from, what my real problem always was; she
even told me how she was abused when she was younger, and about a friend
of hers who died of AIDS that she never knew he was gay until after he
died. Wow.
The big thing now is my family. This is becoming a slow and agonizing
part, but with my new-found confidence, I'm getting through to them and
helping them past it. Hopefully in time, they get over it.
Oh yeah! I almost forgot - I helped out with the setup and decoration
for the Christmas dance at the drop in center; couldn't go to the dance,
of course (money), and I missed the free part, the Christmas choir and
wine and cheese mixer. Hey, the TSN Skins Game was on (a pro curling
event, for you non-fans out there) and there was a hell of a game on
Hockey Night In Canada! (Just 'cause I'm bi, it doesn't mean I'm not
a neanderthalic sports fan! ^_^) After helping with the setup, I got
thanked with my first kiss...pretty good looking too, though he's taken.
