Wednesday, October 11, 2006 is National Coming Out Day.
Here’s a little info, directly from the HRC website, about the ‘Talk about it’ campaign:
You know how they say a picture is worth a thousand words? Well, I took a Snapshot the other day that is now part of an online public art project.
The project from the Human Rights Campaign celebrates gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender and straight Americans who support living openly and having conversations about the things that make us all different — and just as importantly, the ways that we are all the same.
To view my picture, and many others (including a rock star, a former Star Fleet captain and many other open, honest people) — simply click on this link: http://www.hrcsnapshot.org
Write up a little something about yourself here. Something short and sweet, or longer if you'd like.

It’s a truly sad day when we have to have a certain day to be open about our lives.

Very insightful sweetheart. It is true that society, plus religious zealots make it hard to come out, but truthfully it is even harder to live a lie. I was in my 20’s when I became truly out and free and I regret waiting THAT long. Muahz to u Angalee. You are not only beautiful, but very liberal and free. I thank God for people like you. Adrien

It’s easy to put your neck out there when it isn’t actually your neck people want to cut. kudos to all the real risk takers, the ones who, like you Adrien, not only live openly but proudly! the way it should be. To be honest in Angalee world it’s already that way, we also have flying cars and gumdrop trees!
P.S.
Thank You for being a loyal reader and I’ll see you at work this weekend, Yippee
