Support group forming for lesbians living in the East Bay & dealing w/hands-on care for a loved one with dementia.

A meet-and-greet gathering for this next Saturday, Jan. 3 @10 am at a public cafe in the Rockridge area of Oakland.
Duration: 2 hours Location: contact me directly (off list) Time: 10 am to noon Cost: pay for whatever you eat/order on your own
It seems that even a one-time meet is helpful to those who come together to share their stories, but we’re looking to build a solid support system by our regular meetings.
peace, joey brite

Got a Bad Christmas Gift? Go “Shopping!” and Do Some Good For the AIDS Healthcare Foundation
What do you do with that sequined reindeer sweater from Aunt Martha? How about that 3 foot pooper scooper from your neighbor? You got a crappy Christmas gift? Get some good out of the bad!
Shopping! The Musical’s annual “Bad Christmas Gift Swap” happens this Saturday, January 3rd at SF’s Shelton Theatre. Bring that awful thing and swap it for a $10 ticket to that night’s 8 PM show. And….even better…your gift is donated to Bay Area “Out of the Closet” thrift stores which benefit the AIDS Healthcare Foundation.
Bring that bad (or even good!) gift to the Shelton Theatre - 533 Sutter Street at Powell in SF’s Union Square. The “Shopping!” box office opens at 7 PM. Tickets subject to availability. And hey…there’s cheap beer and wine before the show. Woo Hoo!
No bad gifts? Then stop by starting at 7 PM and see the collection of holiday horrors. Your holiday isn’t complete until you can laugh at other people’s misfortune. We’re not kidding about that pooper scooper.
Now in its third hit year, “Shopping! The Musical” is currently SF’s longest running originally composed musical. This only in SF show features comedy songs and sketches about stores, customers, those “oh-so-helpful” sales people and more. Winner of the prestigious Bay Area Theatre Critic’s Circle award.
