SHARE has become the place I get my clothes these days. Two pair of capri pants this summer, a really nice blue long sleeve L.L.Bean shirt, a really nice soft tan suede like (but washable) jacket. Jan sent me home with some overalls but I haven't tried them on yet.<br /><br />And yes, that video brought tears to my eyes too.

I think sports is the last bastion for gay men when it comes to shame and possible acceptance and I truly admire the men who come out as their true selves. On the other hand, I think we almost expect women in sports to be lesbians. Oh! The stereotypes! <br />Jessie didn't want the dress. We were just amused by its oddness. <br />Glen and I did talk but he didn't discuss the weather much.
