    On Sunday I got interviewed for 30 minutes on an LGBT radio show on a local college radio station. Me and 1 other guy were there to talk about a social event our men's group is planning. They also talked about our stories coming out.

    Last night I went to a gay bar for the first time in my life. I met some friends I've made at our community center and played team trivia. Our team got beat by 2 points but at least we had fun. I still went home with a prize. I think I'll go back next week.

    Sounds like you're having a great week, and it's only Wednesday! Who knows what could happen on Friday or Saturday night (!)

    Congrats! I know how huge these little victories are. I've driven past a local gay bar several times... So I get it.
