I forgot to mention this in yesterday’s blog. This happened yesterday.

I got to Helios at about 12:30. At about 12:45, I read a blog entry belonging to tigerbearnc, in which he stated:

Will be going to Helios Coffee in Raleigh at 1:00 pm today. Invited a few people by email if they wanted to join me. Just a casual thing.

I posted this comment to his entry:

Ironically, I am reading this right now at Helios, and it’s 12:48. Guess you and your entourage will be arriving directly. 🙂

After hitting the send button to post it, I looked up and to the right out the windows, where I saw tiberbearnc and his partner arriving. Shortly thereafter, the place was teeming with gay folks.

Just as I thought, “Lord, this place can’t get any gayer,” up walks Kevin (av8rdude), his boyfriend, Joey, and their friend Glenn.

It was like Gay Day at DisneyWorld in there today — without the vitriolic follow-up by the Christian Right, that is.


I spent a couple hours at Helios today, where I caught up my blog, and read Guidelines for Student Chapter Achievement Awards in preparation for our STC meeting tomrrow.

At about 6:30, I called Joe to see what he was up to, and to see if he wanted to meet for dinner. He did, and we decided on Applebee’s.

In the parking lot, I shared the list of drag names with him, over which we had a good laugh.


Inside, we received a waiter who had tattoos on each side of his neck — large, script-written words, which to the best that we could determine without blatant staring, said, one word on each side of his neck:

Loyalty            Royalty

The family sitting in the booth behind me had a child in a high chair pulled up to their table, who let out absolutely ear-piercing screams intermittently throughout our dining experience.


I came up with a short list of ideas to help us meet our STC student chapter requirement of “holding a minimum of five substantive program meetings (speaker or panel discussion, as well as chapter-wide social functions) per year.”
