Sheroe

One day, I walked up behind Sheroe, turned my back to her's, close but not touching. When she looked over her shoulder, I kept shifting. She was talking to someone else so I just said hi and walked off. Women were watching, and I just smiled. I like messing with people. I rode with my cousin from work one day. Sheroe sat up front and I was in back with a woman and a man. The woman sat between me and the guy. She put her head on my shoulder and I could see cousin glancing back. When I got out of the car, Sheroe held out her hand to me. I wouldn't touch her, for one I was dirty from work and felt grimy and she looked so clean. The other reason, I just stared in her eyes but didn't touch her, cause I knew it wouldn't stop with a touch. Just for information, she wasn't the one I was sitting beside during break. I occasionally saw her mother before clocking in, and I asked her once how was her lovely daughter. It just slipped out. On another day, when I drove, cousin sat beside me, and Sheroe sat in back with the other two. Our eyes kept meeting in the rear view mirror. After the plant closed down, one day, with cousin and her kids, we ran into Sheroe. Sheroe stood close to me and then finally put her elbow on my shoulder. Okay, she wanted to touch me, and I wanted that touch. Nothing overt to get the attention of mall shoppers. She probably gets the same as I do when we're with women not in the life - can't get but so close unless they initiate body contact first. A woman from church, who I had not seen in a long while, but had heard that she had not been well, gave me a strange look when I embraced her outside a grocery store. I was just happy to see her. Since when is a simple hug suppose to be flirting? When a guy hugs me, which I don't get often, I know the difference between a flirt and a hello hug. Maybe the next time I see Sheroe, I'll give her a hug and see what happens. (wink) I'm trying to get the confidence to take on women again. The country song with the line - been lonely too long - just started repeating in my head. I'm going to see if YouTube has the video.

The Agenda-Civil Rights

Support for the LGBT Community: While we have come a long way since the Stonewall riots in 1969, we still have a lot of work to do. Too often, the issue of LGBT rights is exploited by those seeking to divide us. But at its core, this issue is about who we are as Americans. It's about whether this nation is going to live up to its founding promise of equality by treating all its citizens with dignity and respect. Federal law should not discriminate in any way against gay and lesbian couples. ... young & old, rich & poor, democrat & republican, black white hispanic asian native american gay straight disable and not disable ... we are and always will be the United States of America. --Barack Obama, (More)
