Last night was one of the best experiences of my life. I marched in the Trans March in San Francisco. I was with 3 of my girlfriends and a couple that met us through this site. Tristetta and her wife Olivia were so sweet! Of course Allie SF was with us, the grande dame of the march! It was simply overwhelming to march down Market street with thousands of trans people and supporters.
After the march we heard about an impromptu block party on Castro Street. How could we miss the celebration for marriage equality? We couldn't! The jubilation was so powerful! People were dancing and singing while waving equality flags. It was a historic moment and I was there, Suzanne born a boy from Kentucky.
Then we met up with my friend Theresa Sparks, who is a powerful trans woman who heads the Human Rights Commission for the city of San Francisco. What a lovely dinner with great friends. Again I couldn't really believe we were there.
Finally, we just couldn't end the evening without a night club. We headed to the End Up for dancing and celebrating. Us four girls out on the dance floor dancing, being us. I had to tear myself away and drive home late in the morning. I kissed my beautiful sleeping wife and the night was over.
Tomorrow my wife and I are heading to the Pride Parade. It will be our first time! What a beautiful, messy and exciting life.
Suzanne
