just got an e-mail from the friend performing in the show saying that "EX-FRIEND" basically told him he was going to hell for his life style. I e-mail Drag Friend telling him I will be there than e-mailed EX-Friend and told her she's going to hell for her narrow-minded views and not to bother me anymore.


Never expected "EX-FRIEND" do be that much of a bitch.


Thank you all for your support. I thought I was doing the right thing but I wanted to make absolutely sure. I come from a very small town in PA and well my first "outed" friends came during my college years and well this would be my first Drag show I would be going to and considering I make Peggy Olsen-1st season Mad Men(episode 1) look like an experience woman (Gay friend's little joke to me and I know it is meant with love) I didn't know if I would do my friend more harm than good.
