I don't get it though. He was acting sort of weird. Part of the time he was "playing along with my joke" but the rest of the time he wasn't believing me. Like at first he said "Dude, we all know. We've known for a while.", but then he was like "you're just pulling one big joke on me."

I know he will be fine in the end. His mom is a lesbian.

I posted this in a blog on myspace and have got nothing but good responses so far. It feels fucking great.

I like that show Queer as Folk, if you know what I mean.

I think Madonna's Ray of Light is a fabulous song, if you catch my drift.

I am not exactly "down" with vagina's, if you know what I'm saying.

What I'm trying to say is, I'm gay. I'm a fag. I'm a queer. I'm a big fat queen. And this is no joke.

In the end, it hardly changes who I am, and I hope it doesn't change your opinion of me. If you have a question, ask me, I'll be happy to answer. If you're opinion of me has changed for the worse (though, I don't see how it could have gotten worse. Ha!), I'm sorry and if you'd like to talk, please feel free. I want you to be as comfortable with it as possible because I'm hardly a different person than you thought I was a few minutes before you read this.

To the people who already knew (you all know who you are): Thank you. I wouldn't have been able to do this without you.
To the people that I am close to but have not told: I'm sorry. If I didn't tell you, don't feel like we aren't close. Telling people one on one is just uncomfortable.

-Alex.

P.S. If you know any other gay guys, hook me up?

That video and song pretty much describe everything I'm feeling right now.

Everything is fucking great today.

All this reminds me of the time when one of my best friends nervously told me that he is an illegal alien. I gave him a hard time for thinking that I would hold it against him.

Hey, well I finally told someone in my family. I told my sister, she told me it was okay. Blah blah blah.

Yay! You don't sound too thrilled.

I am, I feel I am being more myself. I also feel like whatever, let's move on.

i think it would be better if you just got it over with because they don't have to like it, but they do have to accept it because they can't change the fact that you're gay.

Well yeah, but I want to tell them before I leave. Not right now that I am living with them. They are already crazy, I do not need to add more and be here when that happens.
