A late afternoon on Poodle Beach

Storms from a different mother

I was in Washington, D.C., when yesterday’s storm pummeled the five boroughs, but a different tempest of sorts continues to brew in Delaware in the wake of Christine O’Donnell’s victory in the First State’s Republican Senate primary.

My boyfriend and I are heading out to Rehoboth Beach tomorrow morning, but I am sure Delaware Pride attendees will drop more than a few teabagger jokes and masturbation-inspired sound bites in their O’Donnell reflections. For the record, however, I heard none of these while at the rest area outside of Wilmington on Interstate 95 on Wednesday, Sept. 15.
