Atlanta Pride


HAPPY PRIDE! Today was "GAY PRIDE" in Atlanta. It literally rained on the parade, but it was fun, nevertheless. I have to say, after this weekend, I have no pride left.

If you've seen "Sordid Lives," a gay cult classic by Del Shores, then you know, of course, Del Shores! Del and actress Ann Walker (LaVonda) were at today's festivities. I met Del and even got Ann's autograph (but spilled wine on it and threw it away.) Anyhoo, the television series of "Sordid Lives" airs on Logo beginning July 23rd. If you attended pride, then you may have been one of the lucky ones to catch the first two episodes (like I did).

The religious zealots were particularly aggressive today, picketing the parade and telling people they are going to hell. (They have no fashion sense and their signs lacked style, creativity and flair, which, in my opinion, is the real transgression deserving of eternal damnation.)

Okay, that's IT for tonight. Someone here needs to go to bed!

(Oh, THANKS to new friend Zane for hosting last night's PRE-pride party. This guy knows everyone and had about 100 of his closest friends over. It was f-u-n, fun, so THANKS again for the invite.)

Have a good week everyone!

L-U-V,

"Kev"

I like THIS song. I hope you will enjoy it as well...

And I'll bet that those religious zealot types weren't appropriately accessorized!

Well, when your life is spent on a picket line you don't have time to glam it up. It's go go go, all the time! Pack lunch, throw it in the igloo cooler, hop into your Ford Escort, and off to demonstrate!

They should take a day off and spend some time with a personal shopper at Nordstrom. Or have a cocktail (which I'm sure they do!!!).

I think that the more you wear your religion on your sleeve, the more you want to be a part of what it is that you protest. They only wish they were in the parade.

Atlanta was so good to us this weekend. Love you guys!

Hey EVERYONE (and special guest Del Shores!!!)
Yes, those protesters were a bit scary (for me anyway). One man kept telling them he wasn't gay and they kept shouting "liar" at him... As if... (I just walked by and said, like I say to everyone, "Happy Pride Girl!")
Have a GREAT week y'all!
