★ HOUSTON PRIDE
“for things to stay the same they have to change again”
this is definitely the story of our friendship.
kiana and i have been friends since high school so for our relationship to stay the same it’s had to evolve many times. relationships, kids, moving across the country. all of these things change how we connect but the -connection- is the same.
i remember being scared to tell her i was gay. fast forward some years later: it’s pride weekend in houston. i got some kind of militant queer space cowboy afro-futurism type shit on, my boyfriend looking like he in the wild wild west and kiana riding shotgun in some brand new cowgirl boots as we speeding down route 44 headed to beyonce.
my first real ally 🤝🌈

do you see the fangs? they gave me fangs.
i told a story about my grandma’s last few days which just so happened to be the first few days of the covid pandemic. imagine trying to show up for someone in the most important moment -their last moment- while the world is locking down and trying to keep you from seeing her. i cannot believe it’s been 5 years.
spikey ass virus 🙄
i’ve never done live storytelling or stand up so when my friend @jenniferlynmurray asked me to perform on a show she was producing called GOOD GRIEF, a comedy show about loss…i wanted to say no. i don’t know why she thought i could do this but, she did. something about her just assuming -knowing- i could do it unlocked something in me.
auditioning post covid is not a creative experience for me. it’s a job interview where i interview myself, answer my own questions and then usually dont get the job. im burned out. and have been for a long time now. so jen’s text came right on time. i needed to do something new. something scary. something that was MINE.
i needed….to do my stuff 😉
i got my sense of humor from my grandma and my sensitivity from my mom. so i promise its ok to laugh. or cry.
i haven’t really talked much about it but im an “creator” now so my thoughts, life and body are for sell.
this is my first youtube video 🙇🏾♂️
