Potpourri!

I've had a ton of things I wanted to post on my blog lately. So here they are. First, a song. Beware of the F-bomb in this one. And look for the cuteness at 1:56. News to Jay Brannan... I want to be YOUR housewife.

Next, a picture. This is from Saturday night when I attended the Kinsey Sicks (A drag show in Idaho Falls! And at the Colonial Theatre! And sponsored by the Arts Council!). The premise of the show was a bunch of women (played by men, duh) who were hosts of a morning show similar to the view called, "Wake the Hell Up America." It was hilarious. And embarassingly, I was guest #3. River City Weekly sponsored the event, so I got to go to the after party. Here's my boss Melody and I with the girls! It was so fun. And so great to have an event like this in Idaho Falls. And so well-supported!
And third, some stories. I went to Utah to visit a friend this past weekend. I stayed with him in Logan and we drove to Salt Lake and went to the art walk and dancing at a gay club. It was so fun. It was busy, and I even saw a person I know.

And on Sunday, I went to my first PFLAG (Parents and Friends of Lesbians and Gays) meeting (Idaho Falls chapter). It was a delight. Lots of good people there, and something I wasn't expecting... gay couples with children. It was fantastic to see gay people living so normally, so happily, with their children. Not a large chapter, I'm guessing, but they were so supportive. We even played gay bingo (that means instead of saying Bingo! you say Fabulous! - that's the only difference); I won three times.

And also, Rachel and I are going to the U2 concert in Las Vegas on October 23! Dream of my life.

And another also... did you notice I'm on Twitter?

OK, enough rambling, and especially, enough gay rambling. Mmmm... bye.

    I don't even know you, and yet, your cute ramblings and picture and so forth sounded so GIDDY and happy it was contagious!
    I'm so pleased for you about ALL that stuff! (Seriously! I mean, GENUINELY, I am!)

    I did notice the Twitter and it's lovely that your boss is supporting you... she looked adorable in that pic... AND it IS TRULY FABULOUS that you got to play games and be interviewed and be IMMERSED in NORMAL gay FAMILY life. In IDAHO FRIGGIN FALLS? WHO KNEW?!

    I'm sort of experiencing a new BUDDING and FLOWERING in my own life... it's INSANELY wonderful to BLOSSOM as a person after a long period of... dark cocooning, HUH!

    (I told my hubbie about the PFLAG stuff and he is ALSO shocked there is something like that in Idaho Falls! AND I'm going to BEG RACH for details after YOU TWO go to U2 in Vegas in October!)

    I LOVE DREAMS COMING TRUE! For me, for you... for any and every dreamer anywhere! Thank you! I'm totally reminded of how FABULOUS I've been feeling, and...AM! Thanks!
