Fabulous New First Family

Thanks to Mrs. O where I first saw this pic from bobster on Flickr with photo credit to REUTERS/Jason Reed (UNITED STATES)

What a smart and gorgeous family! I’m very much looking forward to seeing them in the White House. I can’t wait to regularly listen to a President who easily constructs intelligent sentences.

feeling the love

November 4, 2008 · Leave a Comment

on my walk home tonight, up market street, from civic center towards the castro, I was blissfully assaulted multiple times by people holding No On Prop 8 signs on street corners and yelling and whistling at cars. I know I live in a bubble and tonight, after weeks and months of anxiety over Prop 8 I felt overwhelming support and love for the first time. I’m wearing part of the same outfit that Michelle Obama wore on the Tonight Show last week-hoping for President Obama. Now I’m hanging at the Westin St Francis with the No On 8 crowd which is much fun and excitement. I filled my flask with an Old Pal cocktail (whisky, campari, dry vermouth, blood orange) and “had” to share it so I’m going to find another drink soon.
