The one and only haikuster will be in town this weekend, so I propose that we dedicate epeep Thursday night at the Pink to her. One more event to add to that busy calendar.

In less than 48 hours, Congress will vote on an amendment to the U.S. Constitution that would permanently deny marriage equality to same-sex couples. This is unprecedented -- never before has our Constitution been amended to take away anyone's rights. We've got to fight back.

Please sign on to our emergency petition to Congress to stop this divisive amendment at:

I have to apologize to the epeeps that called me last night. I was in serious sleep mode and didn't get back to anyone.

A special apology goes out to (e:haikuster) for being too incoherent to remember it was her birthday.

Happy Birthday Deidre! Looking forward to seeing you next week.

There's a girls' dinner tonight with some people from work, one of which is Lisa Visco. She's from New Jersey, so she maintains that she can't be related to e-paul and e-mike. But I am certain they are long lost cousins. I need a digital camera so everyone can decide whether there is a resemblance.

Then it's off to the Mohawk Place dance party. All the epeeps should be there.

Those e-dudes are so cool - ice cold.

This isn't really elmwood related, but it's for a good cause.

My friend Kristen's nephew Thomas was born prematurely, and has had several medical complications. His family is having a fundraiser to help his parents with the financial costs of doctors visits, medications, and several surgeries.
