My First "God Hates Fags" Letter

Hi Everyone!

Sorry I've been absent for awhile. I don't really have much of an excuse except I needed a bit of a break. I don't know if I can hope to catch up on what's been going on here, but I'll try and take a look back and see what you've all been writing about.
