I found out today that one of my oldest friends is facing some rather significant health issues that are related to a similar issue from childhood. I feel confident that it will all work out and there will be a return to good health. I feel really bad because I haven’t called her in . . . → Read More: Concern for a friend facing some health issues

I went to my 30th high school reunion tonight. I had this weird neurotic fear that I would get there, and not be able to remember anyone or anything, and the evening would just be awkward. It went fine. I was surprised by how much I remembered, and everyone was very nice and friendly.

I was recently talking with a friend, who had helped me out with some work on my house. (I have pretty much all of my windows replaced.) His father had passed on a few months ago, and he mentioned that there were 2 antique autos from the Hudson Motor Car Company that had seen . . . → Read More: Names for 2 cars

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

This really makes me happy! My first gay friend, Keith (AKA Justin Lymner) is marrying his boyfriend, Ed. They have been together for a number of years, and apparently just after the marriage victory in New York, Keith popped the question, and Ed has accepted. They live in Syracuse.

So, Drenched Fur went quite well, and I am really happy to work with the other committee members. We did a pretty good of responding quickly when needed. I was supposed to pick up the subs from a nearby market on Friday between 5 and 7. I was finishing dinner and had forgotten about . . . → Read More: I am the meat delivery guy

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.

The weekend is off to a kind of bizarre start. I went to a social thing Friday night, and one of the guys there mentioned about Drenched Fur coming up next weekend, and asked if I thought if we was an Otter or Wolf. (I forget what a Wolf is in the Bear community.) . . . → Read More: A series of odd exchanges

I just had a call from a friend, who had gotten an email at work with a subject line of GLBT. Although she’s straight, she knows about the Gay Lesbian Bisexual and Transgender community, which is what most of us associate with that abbreviation. (Sometimes it’s LGBT.) She was slightly taken aback until she . . . → Read More: You might want to rethink that abbreviation

I had a hair appointment this morning and afterward, since I was on that side of town, I decided to go out to visit my friend John at the nursing home he is at. I had forgotten my hat there last week, so John had been kind enough to save it for me. We . . . → Read More: A new job title
