In fact, my two weeks can be summed up easily -- boys, birthdays, booze and bayous!   I was off to the races so to speak on Monday when I participated in the NOAGE (New Orleans Advocates for … [Read more...] about Party Down August 13, 2019

Party Down This was another Mardi Gras for the memory book.  From the streets to the ballrooms, the city came alive with beads, boas and sequins.  It was a gay dream come true.  The week prior to Mardi Gras I spent either working or getting ready for the Krewe of Armeinius’ ball on Saturday night.  Many reasons made this year special starting with the fact that it was moved … [Read more...] about Under the Gaydar
