Merry Pridemas!!!!

Last weekend I was amongst my people, partyin' and bull*+#& (Shout out to Rita Ora for performing)!!!! Growing up I was always told that "gay is bad" but then I met and fell in love with my Jonnie Bear. Though I was mad at him in the beginning b/c he and I liked the same guy, I soon realized that our similar taste in men meant that we probably had many other similar interest. When I chose to explore it, I gained one of my bestest friends in the world. I wouldn't trade Jonathan Martin for anybody on anyday for anything!! He is the reason I have attended Pride here in Atlanta every year since I've been here and contribute through out the year toward gay rights and initives. After all the crap I have been through in my life it pales in comparison to what the community as a whole has been through and thus we are bonded through our struggles and triumphs. I may not be doing a great job getting my feelings captured in print form but I hope that at least my love does. Pride is one of my favorite expressions of love, openess, acceptance and peace. No matter what your beliefs in the end love conquers all (que sappy song). I captured some photos (Lady Bunny of Ru Paul's Drag U is my fave) of my weekend to share with ya'll I and just hope that all of the blogger world can appreciate that love is limitless no matter who you are. Until next post....laters

Just gotta be me

So I went home this weekend...I had so much fun...I miss my family so much sometimes, but while I was home I learned something about myself I can't live MY life for my family. It's time for me to venture out into to the world with the training they have given me and do my own thing...therefore I'm getting a tattoo...this is just a sign of my personal growth and freedom..God forbid my parent trip but like I said this isn't about rebelling it's about doing ME

Three states, One Girl

No, this is not the beginning of a bad joke. It's actually the beginning of a cool trip. I had a conference in Boston a couple of weeks ago. That was my first time in MA, while there I took the opportunity to check off a couple of additional NE states that I'd never been too. Depending on who you ask NY may or may not be considered NE but in any case previously I'd only been as far north as CT. With this trip I also saw NH & ME. I actually had to look up the abbreviation for Maine because I'd never been and couldn't remember what it was 😅.  Coastal Maine was beautiful. I've obviously been on the east coast waters before but seeing it as a lush green forestscape was another thing entirely. I definitely see why it's the setting of so many Stephen King stories, it's hauntingly beautiful. New Hampshire was a bit more rustic than I expected in the most delightful way. Massachusetts (Boston) was fun to explore and I spent so much time doing something I ne...
