I suddenly realized that I’m having a great morning so far. I mean, sure, no one wants to get up before 6 with a crying baby. Yeah. Crying. She used to wake up happy, she used to play in her crib and over the monitor I would hear coos and giggles. I peeked once, sheContinue reading “A July Morning of Awesome”

Bay Lights
Bay Lights Grand Lighting Promo from The Bay Lights on Vimeo. Very cool work of art. I probably won’t tune in at 8:30 tonight as I will be recovering from bedtime with Ella and hopefully hanging out with some lovely girlfriends… but I can’t wait to see the video of it after the fact. (AndContinue reading “Bay Lights”
Ruby Tuesday: The Return!
I used to take part in a weekly photo blog meme called Ruby Tuesday and I have decided to jump back in. Basically you post photos of things that are red… I used it as a way of giving a small slice of my life. The original meme was done by Mary The Teach, butContinue reading “Ruby Tuesday: The Return!”
NOH8!!
Whew, now that the 500th post is behind me, I can get back to writing! I want to tell you all about NOH8. This photographic project started in late 2008 after Prop 8 passed (which as you probably know took away the right to marry from same-sex couples). First with friends, then with celebrities, andContinue reading “NOH8!!”
Boys on Bikes, God, and A Rainbow Connection
Ever since I interviewed Matt Mazzei about his grassroots organization, the Rainbow Delegation, (for GayFresn.com, read the article here), I have proudly worn my own rainbow bracelet. I don’t bother to take it off at that pool or in the shower. It has, like my support of the LGBT community, become an unavoidable part of myself. The braceletsContinue reading “Boys on Bikes, God, and A Rainbow Connection”

What does it mean to be an ally?
My latest post for GayFresno is up! Here’s the teaser. Last week I attended the Fresno City College Pride Celebration. Unsurprisingly, I heard a lot of talk about equality, about the need for change, about hate crime statues, about the overcoming of challenges. All those things were great to talk about, but one thing reallyContinue reading “What does it mean to be an ally?”
Adventure in Questions
Things I was asked today while I was out and about… aka Why I need to not leave my headphone at home while out in public. (I had to go across town to pick up a pay check.) Are you gay? This was asked by a blond man as he gestured to my rainbow bracelet. UponContinue reading “Adventure in Questions”
Wait a Minute Mister "Postman"
Last week I went to the post office. Or, I tried. See, I had this left over Christmas present that was supposed to go to someone I thoughtI would see over the New Years. But. He didn’t come over. So. I needed to mail it. I pulled out my trusty google map and looked upContinue reading “Wait a Minute Mister "Postman"”
