Me, cigar.

A few nights ago, one of my gym partners and I were discussing hairstyles as an offshoot of a discussion about those women who wear full makeup to the gym. My hair is really long now and she's never known me to wear it any other way so she asked if I had ever had short hair. I said yes, of course, I used to wear my hair so short that I didn't even own a comb because I didn't need one. She laughed and asked, "Are you sure you're not a lesbian?!" And that question made me think of this photo.
This photo was taken when I was nineteen and very, very drunk on beer and tequila. I don't remember whose idea the cigar was, but it was found and lit and everyone in the room passed it around and someone took photos. I look pretty goofy here, but I also think that I look happier in this photo than in any other photo that's ever been taken of me. I love it.
And, no. I am, as the kids say, straight but not narrow.
