Well, it is officially Labor Day weekend for me. If I haven’t done it in a while, I try to clean the refrigerator. I got that done and it wasn’t too bad. I did screw up and forget that I had left 3 cans of frozen orange juice in the downstairs freezer after I . . . → Read More: Catching up on domestic stuff

I had an Obama steering committee at 9 AM and had been up way to late. I set my alarm for 7 AM, but fell back asleep. I ended up waking up at 8:55 and panicked. I just threw on some clothes and dashed out the door. Fortunately, the meeting was relatively close by. . . . → Read More: Political volunteering

My friend Jaeme, whom I first met about 18 years ago, was finally able to get the hip replacement surgery that she needed. She had been fairly incapacitated for a few years now.
What I like about Jaeme is that she has such a sunny outlook on life. She was just glad that she . . . → Read More: Hanging with the Pagans

Wow! I was out at a meeting last night and got back to catch most of Obama’s acceptance speech. Totally captivating, substantial and thrilling. I felt that he was strong and genuinely got where our country needs to go for the future.

Ouch, I guess this probably isn’t good news for McCain. It does look good when a family member won’t vote for you.
Hmm, McCain apparently referred to his wife with as a rather nasty term some years ago.

Well, I guess for a candidate who thinks that the lower limit for being rich (as opposed to middle class) is $5 million, and who is unsure about how many homes he has, this sort of thinking would make sense.

I wandered into the gay.com chat room tonight when there was discussion going on about the presidential election. There was one individual who is pushing for McCain – Romney. Let me state that although some are okay, I just don’t get gay Republicans. At first, he was trying to say that the two parties . . . → Read More: Annoying chat room conversation

This is so bittersweet. It is very sad that this wonderful woman has passed on. It is sad that her partner of 55 years has lost her beloved, but they did get the chance to FINALLY be legally married.

We had a very good turn out for folding the September 2008 issue of Erie Gay News tonight. Someone had asked about folding at their home, so we tried that. He got a few co-workers and even had snacks on hand. We powered through getting stuff done. Every month, I am just amazed and . . . → Read More: Folding went well

I went to a meeting at Craze Night Club tonight for GLBT folks for Obama. It went fairly well. My friend Chris Young was the organizer. I have known him about 17 years.
One young guy had formerly been a Hillary supporter and happened to wander in. He was reluctant at first, but he . . . → Read More: Evening with GLBT for Obama
