While I'm still basking in the glow that is this country post election, I am more than sadly disappointed in my home state of California for passing Proposition 8. I was informed this afternoon that while protesting in West Hollywood, protestors were attacked by police!
I am not a fan of these shenannies.
Everyone with the capacity to love should have the right. Who are we to tell them who they can or can't share eternity with? Who they can or can not wake up to? Go through the rough roads with?
It's funny, while watching Chocolate News last night, DAG was asking, "Who will be the next oppressed minority??" And god forbid it be the gays because I really like them! Without them we wouldn't have "fierce", vogueing or hot tranny messes. We would not have the complete and utter frankness that comes from living a life constantly having to combat ignorant comments. We would never be completely honest about fashion faux paus or complete no no's and let's face it we'd be forced to shop with our boyfriends and who wants to do that?

- I'm blunt...and rather observant...DUH that means I should blog! I suffer from, no let me rephrase, I combat living with an AVM on a daily basis. An AVM is an Abnormal Veinous Malformation which affects about 250,000 people in the US (http://www.cumc.columbia.edu/dept/cerebro/AVM.htm#Link8). It affects everyone differently, for me it's caused a constant headache since 2003...litterally. I've been in countless doctors offices, been poked and proded, been through the emotions of being misdiagnosed with a brain tumor. Needless to say, I've been through a lot and not just because of my...let's call it an ailment. Above all I've developed a less than common outlook on life and perception of things.Don't for one minute misconstrue, I'm in no way a victim, I'm self-sufficient almost to a fault and encourage others to turn their weaknesses into empowerment. It builds character and makes for one hell of a screenplay ha! That combined with growing up immersed in a semi-charmed world, and the glitz and glamour of Hollyweird leads to some interesting anecdotes...Here are my thoughts...
