I didn't take many pix for Acorn Outing this year. The vibe was weird for me & @Dianne. Back when I was living in Bl*ss and even when I was in law school, this was the most important event of my year - finally a chance to be my hippie progressive self in a community of hippies. Now, my life is very integrated and I have great friends here, I have a wonderful life every day. Acorn isn't necessary to my identity or my friendships. A weird realization to have sitting next to a huge bonfire on a Saturday night, but there it is.

My nephew Tyler visited us for Pride weekend. It was great to be able to introduce him to city life and the diversity of queer culture. Denise, @terry's wonderful mommy is also visiting. These pix are a blend of Saturday night's Dyke March and Sunday's events. So much fun! It was also my birthday on Saturday and I got to enjoy brunch with with @xandra, @Dianne, Tyler and Denise, then met the boys at the Harbor after the Skyride. We hung out in the back yard of the 24 where the wisteria was gorgeous and Basra was shoving @Dianne around on the canoe. @Dianne, @xandra, Tanya and I went to the dyke march, spent a few minutes at the party on Allen, then had Ethiopian food! Yummy! @flacidness, @hodown, e:zarkasm and her boy joined us. We went back to the 24 and played games, then hit Nietzsche's for Stripteasers' 10th anniversary party. Much love! :-)

love this neighborhood studabaker.

I'd also love to be riding bike, but enjoying a healing sunshiny day is about perfect.

Madison came to work today with her mommy, @thechefsky.

food, friends, <3

bean dip is @terry's favorite.

my note 2 is behaving badly since the last os update on Verizon. I can't publish photos to estrip thru the gallery or g+ photos. gallery doesn't work much at all. hangouts is also cranky and sometimes won't notify me or receive chats for hours on end, which is maddening when it's my primary way of communicating with @terry and @Dianne. I don't even know what additional information would be relevant to diagnosing, I'm having trouble even searching for the problem(s)/resolution because it's so nonspecific.

I have lots of images I'd like to share but I'm stuck with this tech problem. ideas on solutions? thanks :-)

it's very snowy in PA. I've been a little obsessed with origami lately. I made a classic butterfly yesterday.
