Happy National Coming Out Day

My word, yes… if she saw your Amazon list, she’s gotta know!

Don’t I remember something about you writing a letter to them a couple of years ago? What came of that?

I just had a look at it myself. Good God! Any man who likes show tunes that much and isn’t Jewish obviously must be gay (even if you don’t notice the “gay men’s fiction” anthology).

Could it perhaps be possible that your mother figured it out some time ago, and has either accepted you or decided not to mention it?

I did send them an email 3 years ago that they never acknowledged. I’m sure they have to know by now, and I’ve just been waiting for them to bring it up. But it’s probably my uncomfortness with the subject (then knowing) that’s kept us from talking about it.
