Yes Dorothy there are Fairies in the Arctic!

Just wanted to say hi from the high arctic.

Only now realized there was a GLBT forum not a lot of posts though.

I tried private chatting with a couple of women on here but I think they thought I was hitting on them. I can see their point, so I decided to out myself and let you know I am not a creepy fat dude looking for dates. :svengo:

I am hoping to have my surgery at the end of June or early July in TJ. If there is anyone out there that has gone to TJ and wants to talk or can settle my nerves please let me know. I am considering Alamanza, Osuna or Ortega.

(Yes I have read and reread the posts on Alamanza).

Also if anyone is looking for a surgery buddy my schedule is open just waiting on my passport.

I am getting flack from my partner about having the surgery. I think he is just freaking out because he cares and thinks I am just fine the way I am. But he is one of those people who can eat a tub of ice cream and half a chocolate cake every evening and not gain an ounce. I don't think he get's it.

I on the other hand gain wait just walking by the stuff. I can live on rice cakes only on not drop a pound. I have obesity in my family and can see the pattern. I just don't want to go there.

Sorry now I'm just rambling.

Thanks and peace.

Happy Day Folks! :biggrin0:

Will

So was Judy Garland Gay? I never knew that.

No, Judy Garland was straight, but she was an advocate for the gay community, and gay rights.

Correct me if I'm wrong Will, but I'm pretty sure that's why she is considered a gay icon.

Oh okay, I get it now. That makes more sense.

Hi Will. I haven't been on this forum in ages. I thought you were family though from your posts on other forums. Something about your other posts made my gaydar go ding ding ding. :-)

What are you doing in Yellowknife? Are you from there? Do you get midnight sun? I live in the SW desert so Yellowknife seems exotic.

Hi Lisa,

Now I haven't been on in ages and just saw your post.

Yes I was born close to Yellowknife in a village called Deninu k'ue (very tiny place).

Our summers are beautiful 24 hours of sun. Plus this area is very arid so there are no clouds or rain in the summer. Unfortunately in the winter we also get 24 hours of dark, but you adjust.

Thank you for the nice post and I apologies for the tardiness of my reply.

Will

How did I miss this thread! Congratulations on your weight loss Will, I'm jealous nearly 7 weeks out and lost a bit less than you, but I know men lose quicker than woman, my husband's losing weight and I'm the one with the sleeve! Just had to mention I LOVE GAY Guys, you're the best, my best friend is gay and I love him to bits! Good luck on the rest of your journey.

Part of the Dorothy thing is the song in Wizard of Oz, "Somewhere over the Rainbow" as the rainbow flag is a symbol of the gay community. The idea of dancing down the road with good friends, etc. The Witch wrote in the sky, Surrender Dorothy. This sort of suggests that one should not be fighting who they are.

Just some thoughts.
