It's National Gay Donut Day!
I've been waiting for this day all year! It's National Donut Day!
It also happens to be the first day of Boston Pride, which I discovered by accident this morning in an old copy of South End News, hidden in the fifth paragraph of an article with a headline, if I recall, reading "How Did The South End Get So Gay?"
Check out the Pride Committee's positively joyless website to see what sort of celebration they can eek out of this year's bacchanal of social responsibility, with the giddy theme "Sustaining Our Community, Conserving Our World." Pretty titillating, huh? I'm interested to see what role poppers and crystal play in all that.
I think they should have capitalized on National Donut Day, myself. The donut as metaphor just seems right to me on so many levels. For everything. In fact, I don't know why every day isn't Donut Day. Just like Pride.
So, in honor of two of my favorite things: donuts and gayness (in roughly that order), I am declaring today the first annual National Gay Donut Day. Squirt some extra cream in that Boston Cream for me, 'kay? Let's have a little fun.
I think donuts are better and possibly much gayer than the Pride "festivities" if they can be called such.
Festivity implies, well, festive. Boston Pride is more like a Presbyterian Sunday Social. Only less fun.
I'll take a plain donut and one of the bavarian cremes. Hey, it's national donut day. Live it up and have 2.

Pride is soooooooooooooooooooo boring, boring, boring.
So, if you could BE a donut, what kind of donut would you be? As for me: Needless to say, I'd be something filled with cream - of course.
Did I mention the Boston's Pride is boring?

I guess I'd be jelly-filled, cuz I'm so sweet inside.
