Nayland Blake’s opening was last night. It was crowded and the work looked great. My favorite photo from the evening is from dinner afterwards: Nayland and Maura Reilly, the curator for the exhibit. I like her. Some people think he looks like a roadie.

Twilight in Central Park

KD is one of the hottest butches in NYC. We walked through Central Park one evening and stopped at Bethesda Fountain. KD told me about the sculptor, Emma Stebbins.
