A Brief Break for Levity





... Beloved-style.

Lest you think it's all drama and angst over here at Coming Out Central...

The other morning Beloved and I had coffee
in our favorite spot. She met me at the usual locale, and we walked over to our favorite place. I noticed she had a shopping bag from a local bookstore (independently-owned), and I asked her what was in the bag.

Oh, I have something for T., she said, indicating the owner of the coffee shop.

As we sat down, a large Hazelnut and a large Sumatra, half-decaf, she confessed, this isn't really for T. It's for you. I reached into the bag, and this is what I found: a selection of books, specially picked for me.

Isn't she the best? My girlfriend.

Love it!

DTWOF rocks. If you're really a fan, there's this (Alison Bechdel's blog, with lots of comments from "the community.") Have fun.

I am intrigued by "So You Want to Become a Lesbian". Surely you are or you are not - does it mean something you are and aspiring to be in practise???!!!! Let me know which are good reads - as a newly emerging butterfly of homosexuality myself. God Bless
