Yesterday was National Coming Out Day, so to those of you who are out, congratulations, and if any of you aren't, it is a journey well worth taking!
Coming out is scary and wonderful. I started the process in my teens, and it is a rocky one. And a great learning curve. It goes on for life. Some friends and family fall away, others come closer. You come out ahead.

Hahaha! And here I thought your "I am Snoopy" statement WAS your coming out moment! *wink-wink*
I was soooo convinced I was a lesbian I got my husband involved in a threesome... Turns out I much prefer sausage to taco. And THAT was my trying to come out moment. This message was brought to you by Taco Bell!
Oh, honey. Trust me; you did not miss Coming Out Day. Otherwise, we would not be (happily) married and on holiday. By the way, where are we going next?
Where are we going next? Geez, we arent even halfway through this vacation...
Happy BELATED National Coming Out Day!
Congratulations on the nomination!
