Good times and bum times, I've seen 'em all, and, my dear...

 

Here I am!! It's the end of 2025, I'm still alive, single and happy!
I'll be honest with you all, I started posting a lot less because I got paranoid about making things easy for Identity thieves as well as giving the current administration fodder for persecution.  Even so, life still happened, I got busy and gave it my best to BE MORE GAY!  You, see, when that awful man and the evil-doers behind him were back in that office, I went into a tailspin and saw nothing but darkness and gloom for me and others like me.  Then a voice in my balls, rose up in my head and said "Be More Gay!" That's when I decided, "no hiding."  Never mind the still painful origins of our Pride symbol, the Pink Triangle and worries of gay bashings, I decided to be more gay.  What did that mean for me, since I'm not in the closet? Well it meant not pausing at my door before stepping out and thinking about my shirt or outfit, "Is this too gay?"  It means not stopping myself from saying something about being attracted to a guy in public.  No more censoring my thoughts and feeling for other people's comfort! 

"Be More Gay" became my slogan, so much so that I commissioned my friend and ancient idol, Jackie Beat to make an art piece featuring the very words!  SIDE STORY:  Jackie Beat was shopping and something terrible caught her eye.  It was this generic wall art thing, meant to pander to the gay dollar, featuring a rainbow protruding out of the word "Together". What made it so offensive (Especially to Jackie) was the poor choice of colors to feature in the rainbow; Peach, Sky Blue and Avocado Green instead of (and in addition to) the traditional primary colors.  She grabbed a bunch and decided to do her thing, Viola! Jackie had a little side gig selling her artwork and commissions.  I immediately ordered my commissioned piece, then, a little later, went to her fancy showing at Outfitters Wigs in Hollywood.  There was a little show, snacks, drinks and, of course, Jackie's (f)artwork for sale!  It was a great time.  Here's pictures to prove it.

My favorite piece (Other than my own)

Enjoying the show with Dennis Hensley, Drew Droege and the top of Frank DeCaro's head.
It's Frank's photo. Don't tell him I stole it!

I had a great time at the show and wish I had more disposable funds to have bought another piece, but I think Jackie's doing pretty well.  I think she's only doing commissions now, but check out her Insta and see what's happening!

Speaking of what's happening, I'll do a little review of my 2025 and fill you in with what kept me busy, if not a delicious boyfriend man who loves me as much as I love him.

Meanwhile, I'm still happy and single and being more gay!

Until then, please enjoy my semi-permanent Facebook Cover Photo.

 

MisDrag Pride-GameCon

 

Drag Season is on and hitting pretty hard!

First up was a mini-project for fun and promo... 

I donned my Reba Areba drag to take on Nicole Kidman and her AMC pre-show screener,
as seen in in my previous post to promote Dennis Hensley's The Mismatch Game.

Before the Mismatch Game was ready to be played, I was seduced by Ru Paul's DragCon!

I almost sat this one out, because I felt a little overwhelmed by the drag explosion in my home that would sit around waiting to be cleaned up for about 3 (potentially 5) weeks.  A home in disarray can be quite a deterrent, because why pack everything away when you're just gonna roll it all out 2 or 3 times again in a couple of days... Despite my misgivings about the mess and my basic sense of laziness, I decided that Reba Areba could use the photo opportunities and that I might get to stand next to some shirtless hot guys for a picture or 6.  I'm glad I did!

I had a great time.  I saw some of my favorite drag queens...

Most important of all, I stood next to some hot guys...

Then, a favorite moment... A pink Wookie!

(I apologize if we took a pic together and it wasn't included here, but darn, I have a lot of pics!)

While I had a fabulous time, I also felt like I had been hit by 2 trucks by the time I got home.
I arrived at the RuPaul's Dragcon at 10am and walked around in my dress & cowgirl boots 'til a little after 5pm, add to that carrying around my purse, my camera and all the crap I had to buy to see some drag queens and stuff I bought to support some indie artists & merchants... getting heavier and heavier as the day dragged on...  Boy, was I pooped!  I crashed so very hard! I thought I was going down for a half hour nap, but I ended up going in and out of consciousness thinking, 'It's too hot, I should turn on a fan, but I can't move because I'm too hot.' for about 3 hours.  I was so groggy when I finally got up and moving, then I remembered that I had 2 nights of The Mismatch Game the very next week!

More of that in my next post as Drag Season continues...
