What a whirlwind couple of weeks it’s been — and continues to be! I got to go to the London Lesbian & Gay Film Festival, where my fiancee was showing two of her latest films, The Insomniacs and Godspeed. Then, we had a show of her films at the fabulous Femina Potens art gallery when […]

I just had a fabulous week and I have another great one coming up, so I thought I’d share. I just got back from Toronto, where I got to visit my adorable new baby “nephew” (hi, Samuel!) and his parents, my dear friends Sly and Sophie. While I was in town, I was fortunate enough […]
