The Bed Is Calling

By Joe

Happy Independence Day weekend to all of my friends in the United States! I hope everyone has a safe, fun, and relaxing holiday, whether you’re spending it with family, watching fireworks, firing up the grill, or just enjoying a long weekend.

As for me, I’m taking full advantage of having the day off. Isabella has already made sure she got her breakfast, so my responsibilities for the morning are officially complete. Now my bed is calling, and I fully intend to answer. Sleeping in sounds like the perfect way to start the holiday weekend.

Have a wonderful Fourth of July! 🇺🇸

I began my life in the South and for five years lived as a closeted teacher, but am now making a new life for myself as an oral historian in New England. I think my life will work out the way it was always meant to be. That doesn't mean there won't be ups and downs; that's all part of life. It means I just have to be patient. I feel like October 7, 2015 is my new birthday. It's a beginning filled with great hope. It's a second chance to live my life…not anyone else's. My profile picture is "David and Me," 2001 painting by artist Steve Walker. It happens to be one of my favorite modern gay art pieces. View all posts by Joe
