ANDY SMOKES: Oh, Brian, what
were you thinking? Kidding, I love you! I am so proud of you and the
man you have become. Also, when you cry like a baby over everything
like that? Yeah, kinda hot....Also kidding! Maybe....Let me know what I
can do to help!
BERNIE/ANITA:
double
decade! Thank you so much for being here. It was brilliant to see you,
and you are still so amazing, as a performer and a friend, after all
these years! (I won't bitch about my back and you don't bitch about
your hip and they'll all still think we're twenty, right?). Honestly,
it's been lots of years, and this still remains true: I wish you still
lived here; I miss you.
BRENT:
Oh, sweetie, you make me proud to call you WTT *L* Thank
you for being
here, and you ought to make it a more permanent destination! Love you
lots!!
CHRIS: Wow!
Thank you for being so generous with your time and affection this
weekend. No, really! You were kind and sweet and funny and chivalrous
(no, guys, really, he was--no, shut up! Quit laughing, he was!!!) and I
appreciate it. And remember: ~The More You Know~
DICK HURTZ--a
decade? Really? My god, we really are fucking old, aren't we? Awesome
number, sweetie and you look fantastic! All I ask is be happy! Oh, and
I need you to hook me up for the cougar weekend--we'll talk!
JASON&WHITNEY&BUMP:
Thank you for coming out to play in gayland this weekend and I hope you
had fun. Life is full of challenges right now for me, for you two, and
even though the Hershey company has assured us that CHANGE IS BAD! I
couldn't be happier for you during this new chapter in your lives, and
you will always be two of my best friends!
JENNY TALIA:
I'm grateful to the community for allowing you a comfort zone to be
yourself--because you are amazing. I have faith in you and your
decisions, and you know you can always count on me to have your back.
Also, I hope that your purse is getting a last walk next year!
KERRY:
There will never be a time that
you will not be my/the
best Emperor ever!!! But keep away from my ears! Congrats on the house,
and remember, you'll still be just 45 minutes away from coffee!
KORINNE: Dear
Blacked Out Korinne--thank you for taking my picture, and I take no
responsibility for your Japanese Tourist side. Now be a good sport and
let Sober Korinne show up for brunch, wouldja? Love, Sassy!Michele
KRICKET:Oh honey, you need to smile.
It's not that bad, and even when it is, you've got friends. No need to
self-medicate, just trust as I do that things will work out right a
ridiculous amount of the time, and you'll find all the happiness you
deserve. Love you!!

LEXY: You are beautiful and
creative and talented and deserve to go far in the Court and in all you
do! But keep your fucking hands off my candy! *L*
MIRANDA
AND JAMES (And COURTNEY too!): You
are not only an adorable family, but so generous with your time and
energy when it comes to this community. You are an inspiration! Can't
wait to dust off my Fez in July!!
MITCHELL: You
are amazing, and the work you do for this community is ridiculous.
Also, it's been ages since you lost at crib. Chicken night soon! Oh,
and could you pick up some milk? I forgot!
NINATRON: Brilliant to see
you as always, and thanks for the talk on Saturday. Take care of
yourself, and I can't wait to see you hobble your way into our part of
town again soon!
RENE:
I have a theory, it
could be bunnies....or crazy numbers that fascinate me and scare me at
the same time! You are imaginitive, sweet and funny, and I hope you
never change!
SIMONE: MY
HERO!!! On so many levels, but honestly, you win at life for that ride
home (that's what her last date said too!) Know that I am always here
for you, as ineffective as that can be, but I can always listen.
STEPHANIE ST ASIA: Oh
Steven! It was so so SO brilliant to have you here! What a flood of
memories, and now new ones to add to them! Thank you for coming and I
hope you had a good time in the Queen City! You are truly wonderful and
I hope we can see each other again soon! Viva La Parkside!!!
THOMAS: Oh,
child, you make me think things....thank you for all your hard work. I
can't wait to see what you do next. Just remember to respect your
elders little boy, and you won't go wrong!
TRIXIE: Panamana! Oh Pixie Trans Am,
I'm so glad you've been a part of the Court this year and found the
time to visit us so often. I miss you a lot, you old farmgirl--you're
far too northend for my liking now! Can't wait for your show, what with
you working so hard on it and all *L* Also, <insert stewardess/fly
the friendly Pan Am skies/dirty farmer joke here> And for the
last time, there is no fucking pizza and offsale at my house!
TYRA:
One of these days we're gonna
sit down and talk, honey! I truly hope you make it out in June--I'd
want no other by my side while I'm mocking Mitchell on a microphone!
Hugs!!

will literally pay you cash to stop talking."

SCOOTER DOWN-LOW:
Congratulations on a brilliant year. You worked hard, managed to not
get too muddled or get killed by your Miss, and you always tried to
keep things fun and be creative. Remember, it's great fun to play in
this playground, but take time for home too. Stay happy and believe in
yourself!
RUBY HYMEN I
had no idea what to expect from you, if I'm honest. But your creativity
is truly the stuff of legend. You made everyone realize they better
step up their game or get out of the way. And also, "ASSESS YOUR LIFE"
is one of the greatest things to come out of a drag queen's mouth,
EVER!
