Lookin’ Out a Dirty Window to a Beautiful Scene
Sometimes you can’t explain feeling out-of-sorts when everything is going very well. Since our last Morning Edition more than ten days ago, I landed a new position, am making more money, have leveled off at 150 pounds and have met an incredibly beautiful and smart man. I’m grateful for all the wonderful new milestones in my life and know that as I begin meeting some goals, I get harder and harder on myself. I recognize that it’s okay to enjoy these moments when things have come together. So, I say this more to me than to you – get off my back and let me enjoy this moment; the now; my new gig begins Wednesday, July 5.
The Petersons and the Pea
Henry and Winona Peterson are expecting another addition to their family. With their first baby now a toddler, they now have a holiday pumpkin on the way. Please keep them in your prayers as Winnie is prone to some technical difficulties. Congratulations!
All About the Arc
Noah’s Arc is repeating its first season for all those folks who just can’t find a moment in their busy schedules to sit for the sometimes cheesy, but oh-so-gorgeous men of Logo’s runaway hit. Last Friday I purchased the first season on DVD and intend to overdose on the show before the second season begins August 9. It really is groundbreaking to have a cast completely made of men-of-color on prime time television. Bury your insecurities and step aboard the Arc. It is being praised as a male Sex and the City.
Pride; Twenty Years Later
When I was 17 I attended my first NYC Pride Celebration and had my eyes opened to the widest spectrum of the gay life I had ever experienced. Don’t get me wrong, I had been openly gay since I was 15, but at 17 I had settled into myself and was finally meeting people who were more like me. This year I’m celebrating 20 years in the life. It’s a hugely nostalgic experience filled with wild memories and painful recollections all jumbled to make for a time to celebrate my identity. Survival and happiness; two blessings I celebrate this Pride weekend.
Time to Revise the List
The Morning Edition has been around for years, but the blog set officially celebrated its 1st Anniversary this April. It’s time to revise our subscriber list. If you want to add a name, change the e-mail address your reminder arrives to or want to fall back and leave the family, please hit me up at hcruzny@aol.com
On Blast
Trial and error and fix…There are plenty of instances in your life (even repeated ones) that have changed an important aspect of your personality and actually made you take-on traits that are not inherently yours. For example: You’re pretty talkative, but rather keep your business to yourself to protect your feelings. What would you say is a trait you possess that is not you, but works in your life?
Keep passin’ the open windows…

Hector, I would like to say congratulations on all of your successes! They couldn't have happened to a better, more deserving person. I love you Sweetie and you continue to stay strong and positive.
20 years in the life?, do the math; 17+20= "you made a mistake in your addition"; don't ya think?
Congrads on the New Positions: on the job and with the man, smile, you skinny lill' #*^@!
On Blast, surpress, hold back and things of that nature have been delete from my level of self expression. "Buckle your seat belts..."
JMOO

CONGRATULATIONS Hector on the new gig and the new love.
This monogomy trait is something that I have grown into because it wasn't me until I gave birth to my first daughter and then another - He knew what He was doing. Now that they are older I'm still stuck here and it seems to work for me. Oh well!!!
Miracles and Blessing
Thanks for the congrats!
I've made no mistake... I came out (completely) at about 17. I was on the street actin' a fool at 15. Enough said. I'm 37 this August - you do the math.
On Blast: My example is my tidbit... I will listen to virtually anything and I will share what I think is appropriate, but I try to keep things I really don't want the opinions of others on, to myself. All said, I don't mind making the wrong decisions every now and again, so long as I feel the decision has been completely mine. At least the outcome is easier to live with.
Congratulations to you HECTOR! You deserve all the best life has to offer you. Congratulations Winnie and Henry! :)
MJ
