My Mom can’t believe Ricky Martin is actually gay!
Well, it’s about time, Ricky. Even Clay Aiken beat you to it.
Ann Coulter really needs attention…
Something tells me she’s been a rabble-rouser since preschool. I’m not even going to dignify her by restating her obvious attempts to garner attention here, but suffice to say that she is playing the victim game. This woman seriously needs to get laid, and according to her strict moral values she must, of course, be a virgin, because she has never been married.
Watched “Where the Wild Things Are” last night…
really liked it and reminded me of Narnia and Coraline.

RIP Gene Baugh
You were my friend with whom I had so much in common for so many years. You were a rock. I can’t believe this.
Just got terrible news about losing one of my closest gaydad friends in the world, Gene Baugh, in Columbus, who raised his five kids. I read his autobiography, although I don’t think it was ever published. He was a huge fan of the Spanish language and had spent time in Spain in his youth. I flew to Columbus to be in his marriage to a man in 1998, and he and I also spent time together at various gay parenting conventions around the country. We originally met in 1996 in Minneapolis and stayed in touch quite regularly the whole time, sharing the drama of our kids and our lives before and after coming out. He was only 56, and a big bear of a man (also very tall).
His daughter, Ruth, who lives on the West Coast now, as I do, went with my daughter and me to our first Provincetown Family Week. Ruth and I recently got back in touch with each other and today she emailed me with the news that he had been taken off life support as he had requested be done if he should ever be in this state. He had a stroke on Friday.
