Oh, my God! He’s gay!! Who’d'a thought? Besides everyone, that is? Same for Clay Aiken. To their credit, I know it must be helleriffic to try to decide whether to “come out,” or not, not knowing how one’s fans would respond. Anyhoo…life goes on. Still, I am glad that he’s happier now.

I’ve been working on the same emergency computer call since 9:30 this morning! I think the end is in sight, though. The pain is in trying to cram in all the other pre-scheduled calls into tomorrow’s schedule.
