Yep, bisexuals count. Where was the funny hat parade? That sounds neat.

The parade was in Rock Hall.

See my answer to Gayle in this entry for the bisexual part.

And don't forget I'm bisexual too! Theoretically, anyway. (It's all theoretical these days.)

Re: p.s.

[groovesinorbit]

Gotcha. Hey, it's theoretical over here, too, but not forgotten.

Welcome Home!

That reminds me of the old days when I felt that "politically, I'm a lesbian, just not sexually." It's not the same thing at all. But since we're talking about identities based on theoreticals. ;-)

Glad you're back!

Which reminds me of when a workmate of mine was going on about how she was a lesbian because of this political thing and that political thing, and another normally demure co-worker chimed in and said, "I thought we were lesbians cuz we liked to fuck women." It's always the quiet ones.

I love how no one (no one?) knew what a booty call was. Amazing. Amazing, too, the puritanical attitude. Feh! These are liberals?

Thanks! Me, too. Hope to see you and A soon. Any social time in the sched? I'm also looking at dates to try to book you for that ceremonial rite of passage of sorts we discussed. (Mum's the word here for now.)

I think D&K are going to see Gold Diggers of 1935 with me at the Mich tomorrow night a 7. With maybe an illicit visit to the alley first, just to enhance the experience.

Woo, count me in for rite of passage, definitely.

Tomorrow night sounds like fun, but I have a nolose phone conference @ 9:30. So, sounds a little tight.

My schedule's pretty flexible for T/W/Th, though. Dinner? rite o'passage? Whatnot? All sounds good. xoxo
