In the bathroom of the Continental Club last night, as Dale Watson played. I left my heart in South Congress.

Dear Dave Holmes:

I just want to let you know I’ve completely forgiven you for the time I said hi to you when you came to the Rocky Horror Picture Show in 2003. That was when I was going to tell you how I’d been rooting for you all the way on “Wanna be a VJ”, and how it had been so cool watching you hosting as I’d found you to be both personable and likable. I really identified with you as a young gay male in a small Texas town – the only out boy in my high school – although I know you weren’t really out at the time. But then, you did get to shamelessly flirt on live television with the Backstreet Boys so it’s not like you were really hiding it, right? At this point depending on if I’d started to feel like I had been characteristically babbling, I might have told you how I thought you were cute, as well.

Of course I didn’t get to say any of those things, because as soon as I said hi you rolled your eyes in disgust and turned your back to me, staring fixedly at the pretty young boy(friend?) you’d brought with you.

So I just wanted to say I’ve forgiven you. I’m completely over it. I hope you go in peace.

– ❤ ❤ Ted ❤ ❤
