She had been in the parade that day, and some of us were allowed a quick meet and greet. I was working with an LGBT community group, so we got the opportunity. She was still SF DA then and running for California AG at the time.

She's pretty charismatic. Tiny in person!

I'm at 72 now, and some mornings I don't think I'll be able to see the sunset. The mind is still there, but my body is giving me the finger. Hey, it is what it is. Just keep hoping and looking forward. Always forward.

Turning 72 in July. I'm in really good physical shape and have excellent health except for my eyesight is not great. But I'm a realist and I think that no one gets out of this aging process without a general downward trend, so you never know when the next day may bring a bad diagnosis. I've already seen too many of my family and friends, neighbors die plus all the icons of our glory days are slipping away.

I've been a feminist all my adult life. I so wanted Hillary to be President because she deserved it. Now I'm hoping that if Joe's around and wins a second term he'll pass the torch to Kamala.

I do try to work on looking towards the future but it's really easy and comforting sometimes to wallow in nostalgia for awhile. One of my sisters and I have a tradition of calling each other and reminiscing and we get some real laughs in about our childhood years. It's harmless fun for us.

My daughter and I went to vote that morning, then we took our "I Voted Today" stickers to Susan B. Anthony's gravesite in Mount Hope Cemetery. We both live just outside of Rochester, NY. There was a line a quarter mile long of people waiting to do the same thing. We waited though, and we were both so happy that day.

The rest, as you're well aware, is history. From joy and jubilation, to crushing despair in 24 hours. Now, times like those I can do without remembering. But yeah, I do my share of reminiscing as well. We certainly did live in interesting times. But the future's ahead, and that's what I'm aiming for, however many more laps around the sun I have coming.

Take care.

1.) She's a woman

2.) She's a woman of color.

Look at the way Malaria dressed. Look at her soft-porn photo shoots. THAT didn't bother them. But a black woman.....wearing....... it doesn't matter, because they can't get past those first two things.

would have absolutely no problem saying that in public. They've abandoned every claim they ever had for honesty, honor, dignity, decorum, taste and tact. They are truly vile, despicable creatures.

If you watch what they do, they're screaming all of that at the top of their lungs. Does that make any sense?

One tastelessly graffitied jacket expressing hate, racism, and intolerance devoid of empathy.
The other expressing "all are welcome, all are valued. "
We traded up, way up, back in November.
Makes me cringe thinking of those who would want the orange fuehrer and his venomous cohort back.
