Sara, have you seen Hotel Rwanda before?

Newp. I knew the story, though. Still ooof.

Even if I don't share your love, losing hurts. All there is to know is there is grief. A warm I'm sorry is a balm.

Need to go to bed, don't I?

Like she's trying to convince women to be gay.

Yeah, that's totally what it sounds like.

You know, if I could get some of the random shit out my head, god knows what I could get done. I'm watching a random ancient L&O, and recognize the little kid who played the kid on New York Undercover later.

I suck at planning. For the record.

You do OK.

I'm assuming she is about convincing women to come out. But either way, it's a strange sexual/gender identity

That's very weird indeed. Especially for a work poster, honestly. I mean, I know a lot of people with kinda odd sexual/gender identities (including someone who identifies as a "gendernaut"), but...probably wouldn't necessarily use those for a POSTER AT WORK. (Also, I find that poster a little odd. I mean, really?? It's nice to know I CAN come out at work, but a poster sponsored by work ENCOURAGING me to?? I'd be like "save the money and give me a bonus instead...seriously...")

Lesbians hardly need to be evangelists, men do fine on their own.

Just came back from a neighborhood Italian restaurant, and I'm still kind of shocked at how far yelp is from reality if you've been to an actual good Italian place. I was in the mood for red sauce Italian, but still. If you ask a waiter what kind of reds they have by the glass, and he rattles off "merlot, cabernet sauvignon, chianti, pinot noir," who confidently chooses from that list? It's just dispiriting.

Juliebird, good for you on choosing the right words. and good for your brother on recognizing them .

and for the record, I don't think anyone has the right to ask me to comeout about anything, unless it directly effects something

There's this poster up at work encouraging coming out at the workplace. It has thumbnail pics of people that did and apparently felt better.

I find that very odd. Especially the photos. I mean, I know that many workplaces have photos of workers who've done things, but aren't they usually work-related?

There's actually a shelf of books in the lunchroom touting coming out at work. I hadn't realised it was a market.

What's the definition of red sauce Italian?

I don't know thing one about wine, but I can tell when a restaurant is talking to my level of savvy.

I have everyblock for my zip code in my RSS feed, so I get to see every time someone yelps a business in my neighbourhood. People are weird, yo.

Traditional American Italian food -- veal parmesan, eggplant parmesan, meatballs, shrimp fra diavolo, things that combine chicken and broccoli. I didn't make it up: [link]
