I thought I had done all the crying I was going to do about the loss of George [MORE THAN THE BEST CAT EVER, I STILL THINK OF HIM AS A FRIEND.] at least all that I needed to. But I found myself bawling my eyes out about him after I got out of the shower. I was weeping in a way I hadn't yet. I miss him.

Quotes by Aaron Fricke  (?)

“My sexual exploits with my neighborhood playmates continued. I lived a busy homosexual childhood, somehow managing to avoid venereal disease through all my toddler years. By first grade I was sexually active with many friends. In fact, a small group of us regularly met in the grammar school lavatory to perform fellatio on one another. A typical week’s schedule would be Aaron and Michael on Monday during lunch; Michael and Johnny on Tuesday after school; Fred and Timmy at noon Wednesday; Aaron and Timmy after school on Thursday. None of us ever got caught, but we never worried about it anyway. We all understood that what we were doing was not to be discussed freely with adults but we viewed it as a fun sort of confidential activity. None of us had any guilty feelings about it; we figured everyone did it. Why shouldn’t they?”
Aaron Fricke, Reflections of a Rock Lobster: A Story About Growing Up Gay

“To be hated for what you are is to have been cursed from birth; to be loved for what you are is to be blessed.”
Aaron Fricke, Reflections of a Rock Lobster: A Story About Growing Up Gay

“All I wanted was to take my place in the world alongside everyone else, and for that simple wish, people hated me.”
Aaron Fricke, Reflections of a Rock Lobster: A Story About Growing Up Gay
