Fat guys (almost) make me hot

Yesterday I said something that I thought would never pass through my lips: "I'm on my way home from the Kansas Speedway."

In the paradoxical melee that I call my life, I married into a family that includes two red-necked brother-in-laws that love all things NASCAR and beer. I have oftened bitched and complained during family holidays because I can't carry on a conversation with my sister-in-law because the whine of cars racing around a track is too loud in the next room. I hate NASCAR. It's stupid.

With that said, I was oddly aroused when I actually went to the track.

Wait. Let me explain.

As a wedding present, my new sister-in-law bought my brother-in-law the Richard Petty Driving Experience. (Don't ever fucking call it the Tom Petty ... on accident. You'll be accused of being a moron.)

I have a thing for fast cars. It goes well with my thing for Harleys, tattoos, guys with goatees, and Gibson guitars, so bear with me. I also like to drive very fast. Combine the loud race car with the chance to drive 130 miles per hour and, well ... It was oddly erotic.

And then I turned around and saw him ... and remembered where the hell I was.

Let's just say, the Sahara doesn't even dry up that fast.

I'm just saying ...

I feel the same way at a Tegan & Sara concert. I'm in heaven until I get that angry stare from the tattooed bull dyke in the corner.

I like Gibson guitars; the older the better. I'm not crazy about their basses, though.

Don't look directly at the lesbian. Jez, Jack, didn't your mother teach you anything?
