Time to get this blog rollin along!!
It's been close to two months now since I've been consistently able to sing for more than a few days. For one reason or another I keep losing my voice, which really worries me as I have a show coming up soon. (If you're reading this then you found it on facebook, there's an event on there with all of the info about my show! COME!!) I'm not sure if I'm simply over working my voice, this show has more belting in it than I've ever done for one production, or if it's something more serious. I don't know what that more serious something would be, but I suppose it's worth going to a throat doctor or something.
This week has been an interesting one. Generally in a good way. Monday was an incredible day, though no one would ever have guessed it from my status on facebook. I talked down my first homophobe and was incredibly proud of myself. I always say that I am proud of who I have become, and it was after I had stood up to him that I realized yet another part of who that person I am is. I am no longer the timid gay boy who apologizes for who he is. When I first came out I was very uncomfortable with it. It's a scary world, people aren't always accepting and they're willing to hurt you to prove it at times. No matter what happens to me I'm proud I am gay, and I don't need everyone to be okay with that to be happy. I may not have the typical family when I grow up but I will have the family that makes me happy.
I leave in about 20 minutes to go down to Lotus, should be a fun evening. Dea and myself are meeting up with Gilbert and his crew as well as Joe and his friend Sarah. Should be an eventful evening. So I suppose this is it for the evening. I'll try and get another post up this weekend. Lets see if I get an audience!
