Before, we kept making and changing plans to go out dancing at one of the queer spots in Vegas. Whatever that feeling is that those outside-the-home experiences gave me, I miss it.Īfter turning our apartment into a tea parlor, a fancy restaurant, a spa, and a beach, it was only a matter of time before my girlfriend and I decided to make a fake gay club. Or overhearing gay drama at the coffee shop.
Or striking up conversation with a stranger while waiting in line for something dumb. Like running into a friend unexpectedly while doing errands. The little everyday feelings that we probably took for granted.
#Meet you at the gay bar song series
I confess that I wasn’t entirely sure what this series would be until I started writing it ( story of my life!), but it essentially has become: My girlfriend and I did this weird, fun thing during quarantine and idk maybe you could try some variation of it if you want a distraction or an activity or just a small crumb of that thing that I think a lot of us are longing for.
