I'm finishing up my last paper of the semester. It's chock full of awesomeness about gay archives...although since I of course procrastinated as usual, it will probably be lamer than it should. Still, I heart gay archives, and like pizza or bahn mi, they can never be that bad.

I'm obsessed with the Lesbian Herstory Archives. I went and hung out there yesterday and it was 2 hours of the best time I can possibly have without involving Jen and/or alchohol. I just had some coffee and chatted with the intern and rifled through their stashes of lesbo comix and queer ass special collections. Its just amazing that a) the archives are in a beautiful townhouse in a very classy part of park slope and b) they let you have coffee and food while you paw their stuff and c) its really about interacting with the community there...they're not fucking around about basing their work on a collective mindset rather than an institutional one. That's sort of what my paper deals with, the difference between the two the movement of materials from one to another... Its just so fun, liberating and empowering to actually experience that difference. If you are at all lesbianically inclined, or if you just love archives, or if you haven't seen enough drawings of vaginas lately, stop by the LHA. You'll be amazed.

I'm also obsessed with late 90s sitcom Cybill. Remember Cybill? Cybill Shepard and Christine Baranski and some ex husbands and a lot of martinis. Its the best EVER, mainly because of Baranski. Although also partly because its a show about ladies who are pals, which you just don't get enough of anywhere. Anyway, I love it and I DVR it every morning and watch it while i eat my breakfast and take my vitamins. I just posted about this on my facebook status and a bunch of gays were like YEAH!!! Which was just tiny but great.

It's just nice to get a camp moment in the day. Or engage in the feminist sepratist ethos of the LHA. Gays are always being so professional and mainstream these days. And of course I want and deserve equal rights. Let's just not lose sight of the things that make us weird and superior.
