I had a wonderful time yesterday! For the 6th year, there was an LGBT contingent in the Millcreek 4th of July Parade. This year we had about 20 folks, or maybe a few more. I felt really happy that we had such diversity within our contingent. My friend John wanted to be a part . . . → Read More: A fun 4th of July

Drenched Fur is going well. I was watching a table, and things were slow, so I returned a call for some tech support stuff. My friend Raven saw that I was on the phone, and was being coyly and playfully suggestive while I was talking with the other party. I helped her through the . . . → Read More: Drenched Fur Hijinks Today was kind of crazy/stressful. I had a hair appointment originally scheduled for Friday morning, and was texted if I could move to today at 5:30 PM That would leave Friday free for Drenched Fur stuff, so I figured that I would go for it. What I was not counting on was a call . . . → Read More: The dead are not on Facebook, apparently. I had a pretty good, if non-traditional, Christmas Eve. I had decided to take the Erie Gay News copies to Jamestown and Ripley tonight. I had taken the copies last year on Christmas Eve, and had a very nice time at the party that night at Sneakers. The funny part is that after making . . . → Read More: Christmas Eve I was reminded tonight how very lucky I am. I got some geek stuff done for the newsletter and the copies showed up for folding.

So I got back . . . → Read More: Everything I really need I already have I had a belated birthday dinner tonight at Mom’s. I picked up my brother and we all had a nice time visiting. My stepfather brought over a package of yarn that my Mom had bid for on Ravelry.com, a knitting site that she particularly enjoys.

The meeting was quite productive. I then went home and posted some upcoming events, including . . . → Read More: A busy birthday My step-grandfather, Emmett AKA Mac, passed on yesterday. He was a kind and gentle man. He married my Grandma back in October 2005. (My grandpa died in April 2002 and Mac’s first wife Charlotte had died just before then.) Since he was 6 years younger than Grandma, we tended to refer to him . . . → Read More: Farewell to Mac Friday was rather busy. When we were folding Erie Gay News the night before, my friend Erin mentioned that she was going to be off the next day, so I asked her if she would be up for picking up some items for the upcoming Pride Picnic. She very kindly said that she would, . . . → Read More: An oddly connected evening Because of a scheduling conflict, we had Easter dinner last night (Monday), which worked out fine. My brother brought his friend Karen over and Mom made a turkey breast, which was pretty good. My late father was something of a character, and years ago, Mom was kind of scandalized that we had tacos for . . . → Read More: Belated Easter dinner with the family |
