The Texas State Democratic Convention went underway this weekend, and boy was it a hot tranny mess on a stick. We were there for hours on end with bitchy hippies, tragic queens that make Palm Springs look like a hotspot for attractive people, and fired up youngin's with something to prove.
The brother and I were both elected to be delegates, so it was our duty to actually show up, even though Hillary was planning to endorse Obama on Saturday. It had been a long journey and it was finally coming to an end for the two us (thank God!)
I spent so much time trapped in small spaces with the smelly bitchy rude ass people this weekend part of me felt like going to the Republican Convention (mmmm hot closeted Republicans).
Although I can say there were TONS of hot menses (daddy
bears aplenty) up in the place, but 99.9% of them were straight, and the one or two that was family was so sporadic it made for a very frustrating weekend. I am sure there were plenty of toe tapping closet queens, but unfortunately my gaydar doesn't work for those kinds all the time, especially in such a clusterfuck of eye candy.
[we started at our SD to get credentials]
[this hot tranny mess is in my SD and was definitely representin']
[the brother is not happy to be there this early in the morning]
[hot daddy alert!]
Right after we got credentialed and got a few wicked jokes about trannies and hippies out the way, we strolled on in to the Stonewall Caucus (teh gayz).
Oh. My. God. It was tragic. The room filled up with people, but we kept waiting for the hot ones to arrive... and they didn't. Finally when the doors were about to close, one cute
bear man walked in, but he sat far away and some butch lesbian was blocking my view.
The caucus met and briefly discussed the tarnishing our President has caused since he was caught sucking dick in a park (really? coming out means you don't need to go trolling the parks!)
Then we had candidates pander to us a little and talk about how "cool they are with teh gayz." Then we elected some officers, made a few more tranny and hippy jokes, then parted ways to go get some lunch (we sat in there for a couple hours and thats all that happened.)
[Stonewall = gay gay gayyyyy!]
[this couple was everywhere, and the thin one kept giving me mean looks for some reason]
[teh gayz coming out for change I guess]
[notice the lack of attractive people]
[Rick Noriega, opponent to John Cornyn for US Senate, enjoys pandering to us gays]
[this is like the only cute guy around, but I never saw him again all weekend :( ]
[I had to get a picture of him at least, he was HOT HOT HOT!]
[at lunch this cute bear kept smiling over at me, but I am unsure if he is fams or not]
So the brother and I decided to go to our Senate District Caucus after a nice tasty PF Chang's lunch, and hurried back to the convention center. Unfortunately it was more hours of grandstanding and bullshit, with 8,467 people running for each office of "committee member for boring something or other" and we had to listen to each of these crackpots give some longwinded speech.
I for one played on my iPhone the whole time and just raised my voting badge whenever my brother did which means I probably voted for a bunch of Express Men models and not viable people.
[this lady's ass is what I saw whenever I lifted my eyes from the iPhone, hence why I never looked up]
After our Senate District Caucus convened for the general session, we mosied our way into the main Exhibit Hall and found our seats. This place was PACKED with more stinky hippies and bitchy queens (some pretty ghetto ass Obama fans as well), but we found a nice spot that didn't smell like patchouli or refried beans or stank ass non deodorant wearing arm pits.
[lotsa Hillz fans in the audience were fired up!]
[we decided to give in to change]
[Hillary! Hillary!]
The general session was comprised of several montage-y videos and pontificating politicians. At one point they even had all 100 and something state representatives come out and speak.
Yeah, it was like 300 minutes of the same god damn "I'm who the fuck cares from San Antonio and I'm proud to be an asshole" speeches.
Then Chelsea came out and said her moms was going to give a speech on Saturday (which we all knew was a concession speech), and how she was now a Barack Obama supporter too.
[Chelsea only spoke for like 1.5 minutes]
[people started leaving after Chelsea]
[more crowd shots cause I got bored sitting down in one spot]
I went out for a smoke break at some point, then came back in and waited and waited some more. I decided to just walk around and take pictures while state representative number 74 from McAllen was speaking in Spanish to the entire crowd.
Finally around 10 something they let us depart into our Senate Delegations again (which would only take another few 4 or 5 fucking hours!)
[this queen was alll dressed up for her big convention debut!]
[in our Senate Convention the good lady won nation delegate]
So we get to our Senate District and our "chair" or whatever lady is talking into a bull horn GW style, except the bitch didn't talk loud enough so we couldn't hear a single word.
Also she decided to run for like 40 different offices and it got kind of annoying when she'd give some wonky ass speech before each one trying to convince us why she should be the only one elected for any of the different positions (fucking bitch, I hated her).
Luckily we elected someone not as annoying or cuntastic for our national female delegate, and put lady Stalin in her place.
We finally got out of that shit burg a little after midnight, so I did as any good young gay alcoholic would do and I ran my ass to the closest gay bar I could find, and immediately started double fisting (as in holding two beers at a time you Folsom perves!)
[finally got out of there around midnight, man was I being bitchy!]
The next day came to a faily unwelcome start after 4 hours of sleep (I got my drink on a bit too much in two hours' time), so Sammy was a bit sluggish and hung over.
Luckily Advil and Propel were invented for Saturdays at my house, and I packed accordingly. The brother bought me breakfast, and it was yummy, so I was kind of ready to go.
We sat through more boring ass speeches and videos about illegal immigrants, took some breaks, got some lunch at Iron Works Bbq (yum!), and sat around some more.
[this queen totally started flirting with me]
[he actually said, "do you want a picture of my faggoty shoes?"]
[Dimple was the hotness]
A friend of ours from Dallas was also a delegate, and she seemed to be having issues with the Obama delegates. They kept wanting to "holla" at her, and said how she had nice "caramel skin," and how they "really liked Indian girls."
She came over to sit by us and said, "jesus christ, is this the convention, or the club?"
Soon after I decided to take my happy ass to the vendor mart, and see what kind of cheap ass trinkets I may find.
[this lady was hawking her donkey Christmas Ornaments]
[the Stonewall gays were bitter cause I could afford was in the Federal Club]
[Equality Texas needs to stop spamming my damn e-mail box]
[these two straight douches were profiting on the closet gays!]
[this guy totally hit on my on boredgay.com]
[I was looking pretty cute, and better dressed than most of those dirty hippies]
[do the aviators make me look like a tool?]
[this queen totally didn't look in a mirror before wearing that outfit!]
[I couldn't get away fast enough from this hobbit and his laptop]
[me and the hottest man in Texas, former Attorney General Jim Mattox]
Sooo as the convention was finally coming to a close, and I was getting my happy ass outta there to go to some bear party with a
chaser buddy of mine (little brother Sterling), some police officer runs in and yells "everyone outside now!"
So the place erupts into commotion as 15,000 Democrats spill into the street cause of some fire alarm or something. I have no idea what is going on, I just know that I couldn't escape fast enough.
[help us the Republicans are coming!]
[15,000 Democrats paint the street with their patchouli stank]
