My first ever NYC pride experience.

All the other years I sorta hid away
for lack of being part of some large
contingent of guys. This year though,
I was. So I got myself out of bed and
had a fantastic time. So fantastic that
I can barely move today.

no. not that kind of fantastic.

An hour after New York passed Gay Marriage, the Empire State Building
lit up with the rainbow colours. I'd say this is a fantastic kick off
to this weekends festivities. Perhaps I will even go to the parade this year.

Films: Midnight in Paris, Woody Allen (2011)

Fantastic.

Where I've been...

The Build up of stress proved too much to deal with.
So I took up an offer to visit my best friend from
undergrad and her family at a lovely house in the forest.
What followed was a very much needed respite from my
present existence. Five days of trees, water, sun and
cooking from scratch. Throw in some lovely babies with
an affinity for hand bells and about four dozen cookies
and you get some idea of this lil' slice-o-heaven.

I will be doing my best to return next year. And am
kicking myself for being too busy the past few years
to go. Stupid work.

I also learned some life lessons from a one year old.
They are as follows:

1. Say no often and mean it. Even if you want to say yes.
2. Guard your property with a vengance.
3. If your 'no' is not well received, scream until it is.

And now some pictures.

Cancer Free!!

But I have to take a weeks worth of
Atomic sized doses of steroids and
antibiotics to deal with the ick.
