the Chicago Spirit Squad
Sunday, July 24, 2005
SHout outs to A. for inviting us to help out at the Disability Pride Parade. it was good to march as an ally, and good to be a part of it. Hope it gets even better turnout next year.
Conversation today between S. and me:
S(softly): So, do you think any of the members of the Chicago Spirit Squad (an adult team of cheerleaders who performed at the parade) might have been...gay?
Me: No. No, I think they were entirely all straight. (muffled laugh) Straight as an arrow.
Pause.
Me: Straight as a ruler.
S: Hm. Straight as a non-Euclidean reference mollusc?
this, friends, is why i love him.
