The above picture is from last year's FTF Prom Meetup. It's a good group to hang out with, but one from which I am drifting away. Lately, my weekends are filled with time spent with RQS. And that's a good thing. Unlike my previous relationship, RQS is comfortable with me as Marian, though she prefers to see Mario. This is not a problem for me, as we are learning where each other's limits are in this and other areas of life.
Although I will still go to Yonkers game nights, my heart isn't in the games anymore. Instead, my heart is into being with people who accept me for who and what I am. Other meetup groups have mostly fallen by the wayside, as I don't have the interest in spending that much time in these groups, nor do I have the need to use meetups as a way of being with people.

Tonight, I attended a small meetup at a local craft brewery which held a few games of bingo hosted by a drag queen. It was interesting to hear the Queen mention an old, now closed, gay bar - "It's been a long while since I've seen you at the B Lounge." That's one person who had me pegged. But I had a good time, even though I still have to deal with issues related to buying a new car, getting all parts of Medicare insurance set up (A, B, D, & G), and getting my laundry done before RQS comes here for the weekend. Will I go to tomorrow's food truck meetup? Maybe. But I need to have everything ready to go for laundry to make that happen....
