Topic the First:

Tomorrow is the Houston Gay Pride Festival and Parade. I haven't ever been except for the year my house was just off Westheimer, in which case I was part of the parade route. I'm so annoyed over the state-level votes and what passes for political discourse, I'm going to show my support for true equal rights for all Americans and to prove that not all Texans are hateful bigots.

That sounds all angry but I'm actually quite excited. I loved going to Westheimer events when I lived in the Montrose. I suspect this is the only festival that still happens on the street now that the "Westheimer" Art Festival is exiled. Too bad it isn't in March or April, when it's more pleasant to be outdoors around here. *grin*
