The fall and spring are Boston’s busy season for fundraisers, balls and the like. Earlier this month I attended AIDS Action Committee’s ARTcetera fundraiser and tonight I’ll be dashing off to attend the GLAD “Spirit of Justice Awards”. GLAD (often confused with GLAAD) is based in Boston and stands for Gay and Lesbian Advocates and Defenders. This was the group that successfully argued and won the Goodridge case in Mass. in 2003 legalizing same sex marriage in Massachusetts (the first in the US).
GLAD’s accomplishments predate and continue beyond this landmark case and their work benefits the GLBT community through out the United States. Normally I’d shy away from a room of lawyers, but this event is more casual than many of the other GLBT fundraisers so I’m looking forward to attending the cocktail reception and dinner tonight.
Why the distracting photo of Cristiano Ronaldo modelling Armani underwear you inquire? Well prior to stepping out to the GLAD fundraiser, I’ve been invited to the Armani reception (not related to the GLAD event – but near by). Yes, I know – I’m quite the fancy BosGuy today.

Looking forward to tonight especially if that model will be there – yes/no?
