thirteenrocksOnce I discovered that my "crowning" number wasn't asked for, I knew that I had not won the pageant. However, standing in the row of the 6 contestants, my knees started to give, when the main competition got first runner up. Luckily, I didn't win. Something I was quite excited about. I didn't want to win.
Winning the crown, led to required "performances" throughout the next year. I was ambivolent about selling my soul, to do something that I have "done" before. I know the game.
Because drag queens are a dime-a-dozen in the gay community. They are as much as an Icon, as the leather daddy, The YMCA, Will and Grace Sitcomes, and bloody fucking Abba. But becareful, they can be nasty little things.
My lack of regular "performance" as a women, showed. I was slightly unprepared, unpracticed, and one step behind the others. What I was happy about, and proud of, is following through. I did it. My evening gown was flawless, and my talent will be talked about for awhile.
Saturday I went to La Crosse with friends to celebrate Shanes Birthday.
What I didn't appreciate was the immediate back-stabbing, and shade from the LA CROSSE GIRLS, at Players Bar-in La Crosse. Liza Hollywoodz-was totally shoving the smack in the my face. Then it was discovered that during the drag show (held earlier in the night), Tammy Whynot, decided to rip me on the mike. Believing that I wouldn't find out about it--- BIG MISTAKE. BECAUSE I DID. More than once.
I have NOTHING to be ashamed of. And Karma's a bitch. And to answer anyones burning question if I am going to start doing drag again, never say never. But I have to be much promted to do so....
