Equality California, Prop 8, The unimaginable happened last night

I get these in my email, I thought I'd share.

The unimaginable happened last night

Dear supporter,

Yesterday, in the bluest of blue states, Massachusetts voters elected a right-wing, anti-equality candidate to the U.S. Senate seat held by Edward Kennedy since 1962. And the group behind Prop. 8, the National Organization for Marriage, played a major role.

The volatile electorate, coupled with fierce opposition determined to deny us equality, makes 2010 a critical year to preserve and expand our right to legal equality. We all must engage in this critical election year and do everything we can to elect pro-equality candidates. EQCA's political action committee only endorses candidates and works to elect those who are 100% in support of our rights. Make a contribution to Equality California's PAC so that we can protect our gains and continue to expand our rights.

With truly historic state races for Governor, Attorney General and Insurance Commissioner, as well as nearly half the California Senate seats and the entire Assembly up for grabs this year (and key U.S. Senate and Congressional races including Senator Barbara Boxer's seat) what happens in the next election will dictate not only who will fight for our rights for years to come but whether we can protect our gains and achieve true equality.

You, EQCA members, can make the difference in these elections by working with our 20 field managers in nine offices throughout the state. We can only do this work with your support. Please, donate now!

Too much hangs in the balance to wait to get involved. Consider volunteering with our field team, and make a contribution to our PAC so we can target key races for support.

‘Pants on the Ground’ American Idol
Larry Platt sings Pants on the Ground, an awesome original song that seriously needs to be recorded.

Pants on the ground
Pants on the ground
Looking like a fool with your pants on the ground
With the gold in your mouth
Hat turned sideways
Pants on the ground
Call yourself a cool kat
Lookin like a fool
Walking downtown with your pants on the ground
Get your pants off the ground

[Repeat like 500 million times over]

TO A NEW YEAR & DECADE!!! Goodbye to the worst year of my life!

*¨*•♫♪ HAPPY♪♫•*¨•.¸¸.•**•♫♪ NEW♪♫•*¨•.¸¸.•*¨• ♪YEAR♪♫•*¨*•.♪♫•*¨*2010*¨*•♫♪ •*¨*•♫♪ HAPPY♪♫•*¨•.¸¸.•**•♫♪ NEW♪♫•*¨•.¸¸.•*¨• ♪YEAR♪♫•

Goodbye 2009, you were the worst thing that ever happened to me and I hate you and I won't ever forget it, even after death! You fucker!

Altho, I am finally living in my own beautiful home by the Sea (what I always wanted). I have new things this year that I have always wanted and have made new great forever kind of friends in my new city here, and experienced things I never had before, learned some great things and was taught a few a lessons! These are all good things...

But, It's timing is way off, or maybe it was meant to be this way? I never got to share this with My Dearest Grandma, Mother, Best Friend. It wasn't supossed to be like this.

It's all been bittersweet, when I find myself happy, I say "wait a minute", you can't be happy. You just lost the only thing that ever meant anything to you. So, It's happy filled with Sorrow.

It's so strange!... I can put down in words.

I did something today I was supossed to do 11 months ago & it feels pretty freakin' good!

In a way, to me it doesn't even seem like New Year's to me. Am I the only one that feels this way? It's weird, it went by way too fast!

Hopefully THIS YEAR & beyond people will start to care more about each other, this planet we live on, the animals we share it with instead... of celebrities...& go out & LIVE!!!!! Get all the things you wished & dreamed for done for yourself. Don't live thru others! love, care, share.

I HAPPEN TO GET A FEW SHOTS OF THE MOON WHILE I WAS DRIVING! DOESN'T DO IT JUSTICE! http://twitgoo.com/atd9y

I blast this song every New Year's,ever since the song came out!Cause it's the fucking truth! ♫ http://blip.fm/~ikkv5

I'm so glad it's over with!

I am the Rain King (When I think of heaven, Deliver me in a black-winged bird)

When I think of heaven

Deliver me in a black-winged bird

I think of flying down into a sea of pens and feathers

And all other instruments of faith and sex and God

In the belly of a black-winged bird.

Don't try to feed me'Cause I've been here before

And I deserve a little more

I belong in the service of the Queen

I belong anywhere but in between

She's been crying and I've been thinking

And I am the Rain King

And I said Mummah, Mummah, Mummah, why am I so alone

I can't go outside

I'm scared I might not make it home

I'm alive, I'm alive

But I'm sinking in

If there's anyone at home at your place, darling

Why don't you invite me in?

Don't try to bleed me 'Cause I've been there before

And I deserve a little more

I belong in the service of the Queen

I belong anywhere but in between

She's been lying and I've been sinking

And I am the Rain King

Hey, I only want the same as anyone

Henderson is waiting for the sun

Oh, it seems night endlessly begins and ends

After all the dreaming I come home again

When I think of heaven

Deliver me in a black-winged birdI think of dying

Lay me down in a field of flame and heather

Render up my body into the burning heart of God

In the belly of a black-winged bird

Don't try to bleed me'Cause I've been here before

And I deserve a little more

I belong in the service of the queen

I belong anywhere but in between

She's been dying and I've been drinkingAnd I am the Rain King

I said that I am the Rain King

Well I said that I I I I I

yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah

Well I am the Rain King.... Yeah!

what I love about real musicians is that they can improvise. When I was younger, it would throw me off if an artist changed the words in the live version. I appreciate that now, because it's more expressive and sincere to the artists expression. That's music, man.

I went to the fair & even forgot what time it was!

I went to the Morrissey concert the night before and was up really late, well up in the weirdest early morning hours and it was all a blur. I had to "recover" from what I went thru the prior night. I knew Bernadette and I had made plans to go to the to the Harbour for the boat light parade the following night on Saturday. I was so tired from only getting a few hrs of sleep, so much so that I was delirious! But Bernie called me and off we went. It was funny! I was hung over (not from drinking, just hung over) & I was all giggles for no reason!

I grabbed all my The Smiths Cd's (because my ONLY way OUT is to go SO FAR IN) and a sweater, Peacoat, scarf and a bottled water. Thank all the gods, for it was FREEZING! By the Sea of course! I met Bernadette at a local record store called http://www.salzers.com/ . We went in for some Adam Lambert, Susan Boyle, anything Morrissey I may have forgotten, and looking at used cheap crap before we realised we better get going before we miss all the action!

We both didn't eat anything as of 6pm, so off to din din, after high-fiving each other like a couple of geeks when we both agreed on EL POLLO LOCO! (my fav. place). Nachos here I come!

We both were starving and ate like we were eating our "last supper" as on lookers we're horrified. OH WELL. I asked the owners if they had any "I love El Pollo Loco" bumper stickers, but no good! My friend was asking for a hat, lol, I even wouldn't wear that shit! They prolly thought we were drunk! Anyways, out of there...

I was following dette at some point, oh yeah, that was after the record store, then to a gas station that was too bright and blaring music to me. Ekk! Put gas in the tank and off we went down a dark road to the harbour, she following me this time. We got there and it was PACKED!!

We searched for parking as I almost crashed a few times because I was mesmerized by all the boats with X-mas lights & I didn't know there was going to be a fair there either! Dette didn't tell me! I was excited like a little kid. I like these sort of things. I'm a kid at heart!


She finally found a parking spot & then I. She found me some how & popped out of nowhere! We walked up & I was excited about the slip and slide, but then I saw the cotton candy and had bernadette buy me a mulit-coloured one (it was gross, stick w/the blue or pink).

After that, I saw the yellow rubber duckies and it was all over with. I ran over there and poor bernie had to deal w/me standing around this one booth for like 45 minutes! You don't know how much I like to people watch and I just love reptiles!

One of the lighted boats!
Cotton Candy!

I just came back from the boat light parade, didn't know there was going to be a FAIR!

It snowed on us!! What fun!
wipe my nose, get my new boots on... After all was said and done, I walked away w/my baby turtle and bernadette and I just walked around the water's edge. I had so much fun that night and it was all but maybe 3 hours? and all totally spontaneous! Thanks Bernadette for inviting me!

I should really be the Octopus. Doing 8 things at once all the time!
Finally, I have Green hair! Yippee!
Me and Bernie played half a game of checkers, before my ADD had us running to the next thing!;p
