So, here's Pride in Providence, and it's also Bloomsday, and it's doubtful I'll be celebrating either. Which is bullshit, but there you go. Regardless, downtown Providence is awash with queers, police cars, blocked-off streets, and the Irish pubs are already filling up.

I've meant to bring "In My Skin" over. I can't say enough good things about that film. A truly inspiring work.

What exactly qualifies as a Kid Night in your home then?

Also, the fucking around when one should be working. Yes, I feel. And I have one of those normal, go to office sort of jobs. It's just the rest of the time I fuck around with. Grrr.

In the beginning, "kid food" and the cheesiest monster movies we could find.
