I'm bad at this game I mean the love game. I got lucky in my last relationship that's for sure. I don't know where this one picked me up...

So once upon a time there was this young girl, the ripe young age of 21. Her name was Consuelo and she had just moved to Denver. The first person she met took her out to The Roxy, which at the time, was the happenin' gay spot in town. She then proceeded to buy Consuelo shot after shot of Patron. Consuelo found herself gettin' freaky on one of the lounge tables and had found she had somehow misplaced her pants. As she danced, she brought attention to herself and started meeting the lesbians about the town. Amongst these lesbians, was a young girl named Jeanna.

Jeanna was originally from California and this was her going away party as she was about to move back in a couple of days. Both of us being completely wasted, we moved on with our night enjoying our own separate good times. The next morning, Consuelo awoke with an awful hangover and with a spotted and vague memory of the night before. The memory of Jeanna would never again arise but Consuelo would hear about this girl again dun dun DUN!!!!

For the next year Consuelo would continue to hear about this girl Jeanna. She came to visit a few times and having mutual friends, there were always plans for the two groups to meet up. However, every time something would come up or someone would leave early so Consuelo and Jeanna would only continue to hear about one another. They eventually became friends on MySpace but the friendship was nothing more than a comment here or a message "hello" there yadda yadda yadda.

In a strange twist of fate, Consuelo and Jeanna continued to talk more before Jeanna's next visit to Colorado and they agreed to hang out this particular visit. Then Consuelo went to JR's for "Dollar Beer Thursdays" (of course) where Jeanna spotted her. Unfortunately Jeanna only spotted her as she was leaving to venture elsewhere. Consuelo woke up the next morning and received an IM from Jeanna saying, "I saw you last night" and Consuelo replied with the obvious response, "so you're stalking me now?!" Jeanna said, "yes" but then explained that she only saw Consuelo as she was leaving. So Consuelo asked Jeanna if she was planning on going to First Friday that night. Then they agreed once again to meet up and actually meet each other in person and remember it.

But of course everything in Consuelo's life being a ridiculous adventure, and due to circumstances of an ex girlfriend and a brick wall, their planned meeting was once again foiled. The next day, they covered each other's MySpace walls with conversation. Intrigued by this girl, Consuelo sent Jeanna her phone number. Day and night it seemed that they would text each other. On a whim, Consuelo suggested coming out to visit and spending her Thanksgiving in California with Jeanna. Within a week the ticket was purchased and another week later, Consuelo was en route to California, thinking it would be nothing more than just fun, maybe a little more than fun (wink wink) and just time for them to enjoy each other's company. Little did they both know, what would happen next...

Consuelo landed and hit the bars, Jeanna was not there yet, but on her way. Consuelo had two Jager Bombs and a Vodka RedBull. Jeanna called to let Consuelo know that she had arrived at the airport and Consuelo walked out to meet this girl face to face for the first time. Jeanna found Consuelo and she too was carrying a Vodka RedBull. (The drinks were there to calm the nerves). Before going out, Jeanna needed to stop by her work at the porn store. After finishing what she needed to get done, they stepped outside and shared their first kiss. Most might find this crazy, it was a first kiss outside of a porn store after all, but for them it was as if they had been touched by Cupid himself.

The end of the trip came and Consuelo had to return to Denver and what they thought was going to be a good time with new friends was starting to bud into something more. For the next year, they would go back and forth between Colorado and California, slowly building their relationship.

Right around Jeanna's birthday, Consuelo headed out as she had time and time before with a backpack and roll-on. Something was different this time though, she only had a one-way ticket. There were plans of her coming back, they just weren't sure of when. They shared a conversation and it was decided for Consuelo to stay. They had lots of fun, Consuelo started performing with a dance group and Jeanna continued with her Roller Derby and life was good.

While the past seven months had been great, there were issues financially and Consuelo's friends and support system were still in Denver. So Consuelo decided that it was for the best and they would both be happiest that for this next time that they both went to visit Denver to visit family and friends, Consuelo would stay in Denver. Alas, the distance between Consuelo and Jeanna was too much and they decided to break up. Even though they are no longer a couple, they have remained friends and their relationship will always have an influence on their lives in a positive way.

The End

Consuelo
