Day 7 – To the rim
I am not walking the picket lines today, the weekends are sacred Me and DR Time. We will have a delicious breakfast and then we’ll go and and visit Church St and see friends and… wait a minute… Church St during Pride is EXACTLY the same thing I’ve been doing all week!!! I just march up and down the same old street, see the same people, a little action happen here, a little action happen there. Shit, the only difference is I’m not wearing a Local 79 sign with a message within a group of people who think alike, I’m wearing a cute t-shirt with a message within a group of people who think alike…
One girl walking the circle of strike earlier this week was chatting with friends about the upcoming Pride celebration, she said that her Pride Wish was that we got back to work with a fair contract, she didn’t want to get laid, she just wanted a fair contract. Let’s hope for all our sake that she, in fact, didn’t get laid.
Happy Pride!

It’s funny how we congregate in our little tribes…
Happy Pride my homohusband!
Happy Pride!
As a fellow 79′er can’t we just have this over? I’m not on the picket I’ve got a couple of crotch fruit to take care of and can’t make enough bread on the line.
Nothing I’d like more William, I want my salary back, this is really painful.
“crotch fruit”? Holy shit that’s hillareeous!
Seriously, I’m >< close to asking for a return to work form, it's so bad, and stuff, but cripes, I just started back with the city in May.
And as for Crotch Fruit, that's the term I have for the helicopter type parents who think their precious little snuflaken are all bound to be the triple threat winners of Idol, Scripps, and get called to the Bar, or their MD's etc.
