Spotted in San Francisco's Castro district last Saturday while slurping coffee with friends: the Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence, preparing for the Tour De Castro. This tricycle drag (queen) race benefits the AIDS Lifecycle charity, and it's part of a longstanding tradition. The air was warm, the outfits fabulous, the cause a noble one.
[Below], a friendly guy named Chris, who very kindly obliged when I asked if I might snap a photo of this fierce tattoo that stretched from shoulder to shoulder. "Your back looks amazing," I stutter, "I mean, you look great from the front, too, but --" He stops me. "Honey, don't worry," he sighs, "Everybody always wants it from behind."

And just to quell those blasted rumors that DC gays don't know how to have fun, this little email popped into my box this morning in reference to tonight's High Heel Race:
Ladies:
Tonight is the High Heel Race...and it's not too late to join us for
what's SURE to be a hilarious night of dragertainment! Beginning at 3PM today, a whole gaggle of us are getting all dolled-up at [a certain] be'ach's castle, [secret location deleted.]
Everyone we can squeeze into the be'ach's basement is welcome. Departure time: 7PM.
So grab that crazy cracked-out wig, a lot of booze, the blue eye shadow and a pair of your more becoming heels...and come along! At the moment, there are 12 of us crazies...and we want to make a STATEMENT on 17th Street! So join in on the fun!
Any questions, shoot me an email before Noon today...or call [the] Emergency Drag Queen Hotline @ 202.555.5555.
In case you're wondering where I'll be tonight. (Photos tomorrow, promise!)
