Eek. An education in blogging begins. Hitting "post & publish" results in typos and poor grammar representing you to the world. Lesson learned.

Tuesday night is Buffy the Vampire Slayer nite. How the fuck can a piece of crap show like Queer as Folk win a GLAAD media award when a show like Buffy is on the air?? The relationship between Willow and Tara has been, without any doubt in my mind, the best portrayal ever of a gay or lesbian couple on television.

No other show has ever represented the love and dignity of a gay relationship so well. The development of Willow and Tara as a couple has been a joy to watch. There's not been a false note a single time in the development of their relationship. Watching friendship grow into respect and admiration and those traits grown into love between these two characters has been an absolute joy. The smallest looks between the two and some of the best written dialogue on tv has made me believe in the complete and pure love between these characters.

So, the things that happened in tonight's show... hurt. And hurt bad. I cried. I guess part of me will always be a big sissy. And I don't care.

Watch Buffy already.
