i should have known at 14!

i'm 26. and i came out to myself when i was 16.

and every now and then i have these little flashbacks to things that happened, or things i saw/heard when i was a teenager, where i say to myself, "THATS why i reacted like that..." or "THATS why i liked that so much." etc. and the "THATS" = "cause i was a dyke and didnt know it!" like a scene i used to rewind over and over in one of my fav movies called "Secret of My Success" where you can see nipple in a pool for about 1.5 seconds.

aaanyway, i bought a Prince album called "Come" on amazon a few nights ago and it arrived today. i just played the entire thing, and the last track is called "Orgasm." that Prince is so subtle.

if youve never heard it, its basically prince whisperin' to this chick AND shredding a guitar (mult-eye-talentid) while this chick...has an orgasm. i used to have this album when i was 14/15. and listening to this reminded me that i used to listen to the track on my headphones over and over and over again. didnt know why i loved the sound so much.

ah, memory lane.

just had to share.

that ever happen to you?

I have "THAT'S" moments all the time. Sheesh... in 5th grade I hung out... well, bothered, this beautiful young woman who watched all the afterschool kids. I still remember her ... and her hugs.:)

I have so many like that! "THAT'S why I liked Princess Leia when she was in that scene with the bikini and I was 7."

Because I thought she was way hot and I was attracted to every single Disney female, and their princes.......and I'm a big big big mostly female orientated bisexual.

Oh yes. That's why.

But I love those realisations...

this is gonna sound sooo lame, but when i was like 5-6, i remember watching scooby-doo. lol. i remember looking around to see if anyone was looking and then kissing the tv. and i remember that part in "secret to my success",too! "auntie vera" i think. plus,when i was 8-9, me and my "best friend" always played house. she always made me be the husband,though. i sucked at being the wife;_)
