I officially became gay on November 15th, 1997!



Long time ago, during the years before youtube, there were no 'accidentally leaked' songs, no previews, no itunes promo, no nothing! So, if you wanted to dance naked in your bedroom to your favorite pop diva of choice, you had to pretty much go to walmart and get your own cd when they put it out. Also, it was during those years when I was a starving student and didn't have any money to go out. Soooo, what do you do when you're more broke than Toni Braxton circa 2010? You go and get 3 TKT light caguamas en el OXXO de la esquina, and stay your skanky ass home on a saturday night, watching SNL, of course.
Claire Danes was hosting it that night, and Miss Mariah Carey was the musical guest.
After having been taken somewhere else by then-Miss Carey's "Butterfly", it came 'My All", and as the song was ending, I noticed that...umm...sort of like...ummm... had tears in my eyes! Yes, I was crying!!! It was the first time I had cried sin darme cuenta! That was the moment when I knew Mariah would play a very important role in my gay life, and who would also, provide me with the power ballads that everybody else would hate for the rest of my life.
So here's what I witnessed that night:
