By my junior year of high school, I was more or less “out” to the whole student body, and my beloved grandmother was deep in a state of denial about it. I set myself a goal: I was going to go on a date before I graduated. Easier said than done… its not like there was a pool of eligible guys in the hall ways of a Texas country high school. But, with the help of a good friend, an internet connection, and a series of lies to my legal guardian, I made good on my goal.
