goofy

thanks for hosting the boys' night. i enjoyed myself...even if one old guy fell asleep in the chair after the first 3 hrs of wii.

oiler, thanks for bringing the pizza and baking the cake.

ebon...well, thanks for showing up.

ash, thanks for the ride.

by the way, did you guys ever get the girls to give you nail polish tips?

Ebon · 03-12-2012, 08:05 AM

Everyone thanks for a great send off. I'm going to miss you guys very much and it was nice to laugh and smile with everyone. It's been a wonderful weekend. We had a brunch on Sunday that lasted until 8pm so it's been an awesome last weekend here in Austin.

Blush and Goofy I'm sorry I didn't get to see you guys but you are probably having a blast there in Disneyland.

Everyone else that wasn't able to make it I will miss you and sorry I didn't get to see you before I am leaving. Hopefully will see you at the reunion.

"ether man" rapist has been caught -

He assaulted a woman who lived across the street from me back in 2006. Never was I more thankful to live in the same house as my old roommate's big protective growly German shepherd. I'm glad this guy was caught.

A friend in Austin posted yesterday that there was an assault against a transperson in Austin over the weekend, but I haven't found any info on the news yet. Does anybody know what happened?

While looking for this information, I also searched for follow-up info regarding Norma Hurtado. She and her mother Maria were shot dead by her girlfriend's father in Austin last year. I found a youtube memorial put up by the victims' son/brother:

She was a cute little baby butch and I emphasize *baby* because I think she was only 23. I know that being out carries a higher risk of death, but I think one of the most tragic things about this was that her mother was also shot. If I were to be shot for being gay, I'd have to say it was worth it to live life as who I am, but if somebody shot my mom because of my orientation - that's just a whole other level of heartbreak.
