It's not too hard to bring out the gay boy in me, but Kristen did it with astounding skill. She wrote "grace" on my lower back. It was lovely. I didn't even see it until I got home. I was going to resist the temptation to look in the mirror (I wanted to wait until the photograph came out), but I couldn't! I looked and saw it backwards.

And then, it came out so great in the photo. I love the fish swimming just below. You see the fish?There're two of them.

This is my writer's outfit. A sarong and a tank top. If I could walk around like this ALL the time, I would. And I do. As often as possible. Now that I know how gay I actually look, I'm even more excited.

And thank you for the gift of grace!
