    Ok, so...

    I'm out to one friend, but she moved away. She just called to tell me Dallas' Pride Parade is tomorrow, and that 2 of my friends are going (I'm not out to them). So I might go with them... I'm pretty nervous. She's calling 'em to ask if I can come because they don't know that I know that they're in a relationship (did you follow that? lol). So basically I just came out to two more people.

    Potential updates tomorrow?

    Good Luck!

    I found out there was a pride parade a couple weeks ago in a section of Eureka called Old Town when my friends mom posted pics of her and her daughter (my friend) going there (mom was there to support friend). I was like "DAMN! I'm so out of the loop!" lol

    Okay, so I went! (Pictures later?)

    It was a lot of fun. I got lots of free stuff by jumping up and down and yelling at the people on floats, including a free Chipotle burrito! It made my day.

    Well, besides being around gay-friendly people. That made my day, too. Usually in large social situations I tend to cross my arms, but today I only did once because I was bored. I thought I would be really nervous, but it was really nice.

    I tried posting some pictures. I got three up, then decided it was taking way too long, so I took them down.

    BUT!

    Here's a 7 second video. I'm posting it for obvious reasons...
