Some great pics from last year's Ms Bienestar pageant are up on Scott and Ben's excellent blog. Bienestar is a tremendous community service organization, that provides important care and counseling and support to the Latin LGBT community. In addition to all their other good works, they put on an annual pageant, which I always try to attend, even though its done entirely in Spanish and I only hablo un poco :) It doesn't matter because the transgender community here in LA is is a shared one, even when languages are not.

Nite Spots
Just a quick pic from a fun Saturday nite at the Oxwood Inn, in Van Nuys. You can find more information about it along with pics of all the events here. If you want my slant on it, it's the place to be, every weekend. :)

Rest in Peace
a pic in front of my long time friend Tom's beloved classic Porsche. He was well known and respected in the online TG community as LAGent. Sadly, he recently suddenly passed away a few weeks after this picture and I think this was the last nite I saw him, He was the consummate gentleman, who I could always count on for a bent ear or a kind word, and the diet coke, he unfailingly would get me without asking every time we ran into each other. We had worked together behind the scenes for the last few years on a project to help memorialize girls who pass too soon, and now, he too has done so. He is well remembered and will be surely missed.

soft cell
I only got one bar with my T-Mobile inspired look, but fortunately, it was the Palms, where there is always good service :) My friend Amaya Jade's look was off the hook and got a great reception too.

Crowning Around
in a carnival orange colored dress at the Queen USA back in July. I love a good pageant and this was a great one, with many beautiful contestants and really deserving winner.
That's Carla, who did really well in her very first pageant.
Melissa, who is always gorgeous and gracious in every pageant, Juliana, who is always a joy to see and Isabella, who showed poise equal to her beauty in the question and answer session,
and finally, my good friend Carolina, who may never have done a pageant but is no less a Queen for all the good work she does as a volunteer at them.
