Happy Pride everyone!
That's me walking in the Pride Parade with GMHC and Heritage of Pride. It was a great experience, spreading the spirit of Pride by making people scream at the top of their lungs. I hope you also had the chance to spread yourself in your own special way. Tee hee.
Here's part of the dinner conversation I had with my friend Steve after seeing Jumping Blind at GayFest:
Me: "That play reminds me of this book I read, Suite Française, ever heard of it?"
Steve: "Nope."
"It also takes place during the German occupation of France. It's a great read; funny. And endearing. I really liked it."
"Really?"
"Yep. What's also fascinating is that this book was written during that time but only published recently."
"Oh yea?"
"Yep. She was killed before she could finish writing her books, but they found them, and her notes too, and published them. She was Jewish and the Germans took her to Alcatraz, and that's where she died."
"You mean Auschwitz."
"Uh yea, that's what I meant."
Honest mistake, right?
Did I mention that Steve's Jewish? Hah! I'm such an idiot sometimes.
Wow. Is it June already?
Yep. And that means it's Pride month again! Happy Pride ya'll! Can't wait to see what kind of craziness happens this year!
