Rainbows over Kelly's backyard
Remember when I first took up Kelly’s Pride Challenge back in 2006, 2007 and 2008… Well it’s that time of the year again to show your GLBT blogging pride! Post the photo above on your site and let Kelly know so he can post your link on his blog, Rambling along in life…
Remember when I told you that I won the Ru Paul Gender Fun contest. Well the book arrived on April 26th with a lovely card from Adrian Acosta and Amnesia Sparkles :)
Remember when I told you about how I saw This American Life Live in the theater. Well the Return to the Scene of the Crime episode is now available to listen to.
Remember how I blogged about getting new glasses and asked witch pair do you like? Well I got two new pairs of glasses. One pair is rimless and the other pair is kinda like Ooo wee ooo, I look just like Buddy Holly or Rivers Cuomo.
Remember when I said that I would not get a Twitter account saying I didn’t want to add another thingie and I didn’t want to follow the pack? Well I finally gave it a try and now you can stalk me follow me on Twitter.
Remember when I said I had a Facebook account, but asked you to not friend me on FB unless you were a real life friend? Well now you there’s a VJnet page on Facebook where you can get the latest updates connect with me and all that jazz.
Remember when I marched in the 2007 NY Pride parade with Erin from the Fagbug? Well she finished the Fagbug documentary. So check your local film festivals for screenings. Speaking of the NYC Pride parade, I will be marching with the New York City Bloggers & Digital Activist this year! It’s organized by Father Tony of Farmboyz / Perge Modo.

The March starts at Tompkins Square Park in the East Village, gathering at 7PM at the Saint Mark’s Place/8th street entrance to the park, stepping off just before sunset, ending in the West Village in front of the Stonewall Inn Bar.”
