Whether it’s going to a gay and lesbian film festival, a Cher concert, or still trying to fit into my Debbie Gibson dress; every weekend is a gay weekend for me. However some weekends are more gay than others and last weekend was, in my gay opinion, the pinnacle of gayness so far. It all…
Last week I went on vacation with my two favorite people, my partner and my sister. We went to Washington DC for five days. We arrived Tuesday afternoon by Amtrak train at Union Station (50 Massachusetts Ave NE). Sure we could have drove in roughly the same amount of time but I wouldn’t drive in…
Back in May, in honor of Mother’s Day, I did a post about my mom who pretty much raised me solo. My father died when I was eleven, but before that, he wasn’t around much. He was on the road a lot driving tractor trailers (bringing home small trinkets from time to time), moving trucks…
In my gay opinion, religion is something very personal and, in life, you have to figure out what works for you. Growing up I was raised Catholic. I was taught to pray by my grandmother and I would only go to church once a year with my sister’s family on Christmas Eve for midnight mass…
Ever since I’ve been going to New York City, one thing I’ve always wanted to do was go to the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade. It never happened because I had no interest in getting up at some ungodly hour to get into the city early enough to stalk out a good spot on the parade…
Where are you going to attend college? Who are you going to marry? What career are you best suited for? What’s for dinner? We all have choices and decisions to make that impact the rest of our lives. Stress bears down on us at every turn. We’ve all been there. Last month, I found myself…
I never had much interest in visiting Nashville because it’s the country music capital of the world and I’m not much of a country music fan. However, after getting hooked on the TV show Nashville, I decided it was somewhere I’d like to visit. My sister came home a few years back raving about it…
My partner and I had a week off this month and were looking for somewhere to go on vacation. My partner suggested Atlanta, Georgia for a couple reasons. First they have good public transportation (neither of us like to drive when on vacation), secondly it was more in the path of the eclipse than Connecticut,…
In my gay opinion, moving sucks. I’ve moved a couple times in the past few years and with each move I downsize and get rid of stuff I no longer use. However there have been a few items that I just haven’t been able to bare to part with until now. Back in the day,…
Lately I’ve been hearing a lot of talk about racism in the media, between building a wall to keep Mexicans out of the U.S.A and bans on Muslims flying in. People seem to have forgotten that The American Dream was built by immigrants and people searching for freedom of religion. Unfortunately the cost was slaughtering…
