Come with me, if you will, back to Pride Weekend 1996
Damn it, Norman. Can’t you be cool for once?
No. No, he could not.
Norman was a playwright of a certain age, and he was FURIOUS all the time. He was engaged in a multi year feud with my other neighbor Josh. The subject of their battle shifted as necessary, and was not important anyway. The FIGHT was the thing.
Wow, I could see and hear all of that. Brilliant.
Thank you kindly, Bev. I tried to do it justice. It’s a favorite memory.
So sweet and wonderful. I can see the haze of purple from the streetlights in my mind’s eye.
Did you go to the Halloween Parade in Greenwich Village? That was so much fun when I used to go with my mom in the early ‘80s! (I was
11)
I did, a couple of times -- I was so sick during those years it was tough to leave my house -- but when I went it was magical.
I once went to the Halloween parade the first day I too some psychoactive medication. I should write that story up for Halloween!
So wonderful, read in the cool of the evening of a long day just like her visit.
Excellent, excellent piece. It's a shame Pride parades are being canceled left and right here in Florida.
Thank you, Joseph!
