Pride Daze

[cabenson]

We made our first trek to the pool today. I actually swam 10 lengths which I thought was a good start considering I haven't done much more than a slow-paced walk over the last month. We were sitting at the edge, catching our breath, when an older woman (we were no doubt the "youngsters" in the pool)came up and started talking to us. I had a hard time keeping a straight face, because she reminded me of "Madame" from Madame's Place.



And when she asked if we were related-because god knows we look soooo much alike- I told her that we were partners. "Oh I think it's wonderful you came out and said that," was her response. Very open-minded for someone who looks like a puppet.


This weekend is our Gay Pride Celebration, so of course, it is already 90 F out. Mrs. CB wants to go to Rocking In The Street tonight. Depending on how hot it gets (I'm a wuss in the heat) and how my back feels, I may try to go. The Parade is tomorrow, but she'll be out of town, so I'll probably just stay home.

I need a nap.

One of the things I love about CB is how open she is. Donna, aka Madam, asked me first and all I said was, "No we're not."
Donna had a funny remark. She said, "I think that's great. I wish everyone would tend to their own gardens! Some people like rutabegas and I don't. So what, not everybody eats rutabegas. You look happy."

I'm with Madame... er, Donna, rutabegas suck.
