Polos have feelings too

I shall not apologize for my dislike of polo shirts, but please know that it doesn't stop me from liking those that wear them. Some of my favorite people have this cotton collared apparel and wear them often, and with pride. If you are wondering where my recent polo anger stemmed from....it is simply this. I was "highly encouraged" to wear one at an event last Friday night. I would like you all to think back to a time when you have seen me in a polo, that was white, with a logo. Exactly. Never. Hence my hostility.

I 'Heart' Wisconsin

Did ya hear? Did ya hear that Wisconsin hates Jessica Simpson? That made me terribly proud to be a Wisconsinite at heart. Jessica was heckled at her debut country performance at the Country Thunder music festival (somewhere near Kenosha?) over the weekend, and that just made me giggle. The Kenosha Times had some great quotes from fans including, "She's an embarrassment to country music", " It's crap", "I don't hear the twang; she's not good enough to be here". It certainly didn't help that she tried to do a cover from Willie Nelson. Hasn't that silly blonde heard? You don't go to Wisconsin and insult the cheese, brats, cows, the Packers, or the real country music. Wisconsin, you make us all proud.

Bingo, Mosquitos and Drag Queens

Drag Queens typically aren't that pretty. Drag Queens outside in the humid, hot North Carolina weather tackling grassy stairs in heels are certainly not pretty. They are damn entertaining though.

Last night we joined some friends at the Raleigh Little Theatre for Drag Bingo. All proceeds benefit the Alliance for AIDS Services - Carolina, so you not only get to play bingo outside, you are entertained for a great cause. The show was all of 10 minutes in when the glorious emcee - Mary K.Mart - spotted Michael in the crowd and said he was yummy. Of course I agree, but was slightly thankful when "she" turned her attention to other eye candy in the audience. I really didn't need to go a round in the parking lot later with a 6'1 drag queen in skimpy lingerie.

One of the delightful guys next to us fortunately sprayed me down with bug repellent. I am an idiot for going anywhere in this state without it! You would have thought I learned my lesson after being chomped on 19 times in 5 minutes by mosquitos the other night.

We had a great time with great company and we'll definitely make a repeat visit on August 2nd for Garden Party Bingo. We both agreed that we've never spent the night with that many Drag Queens before...sober.
