My Coming Out Anniversary!
Every year, October 11th is celebrated as National Coming Out Day. This day is always beautiful to me because not only do I see so many people taking the brave steps to come out but I also see so many allies reaching out and letting people know that they are safe to come out to.

I’ve been sick twice in the past week. Last week, I was hit with a sudden upset stomach that kept me out of work for a day since I couldn’t be far from the bathroom and the past two days, I’ve been achy, shaky, congested and frustrated with a sore throat.
