    It’s been a week now since the march, and it already seems like ages ago. It could be because we spent the march in glorious, sunny heat and returned to wintry cold. It’s as cold as a witch’s tit in a brass bra over here. Even though we can...

    We’re packing up the M-V and heading to Washington DC this weekend where we’re going to march for marriage equality on Sunday, October 11. It began as a throw-away question. “Hey, Gabriella. Let’s go to the National Equality March on the 1...

    Wednesday 29 July 2009. We may be driving to Canada tomorrow. Friends of ours relocated to Canada in June, and we threatened to go visit them at their summer home outside of Toronto. They called our bluff. Normally, a trip like this would have be...
