"October 11 is National Coming Out Day. Young people across the country are thinking about coming out as lesbian, gay, bisexual, or transgender (LGBT*). Many have high hopes that coming out will give them relief. Maybe they've been hiding a secret for a long time and hunger for the freedom to be themselves with the people they love. Sadly, the one thing they may fear the most is rejection from their parents or caregivers. We can change this."

I'd never heard of it either. Great concept.
But just my luck it falls on my wife's and my anniversary. That is SO not going to work! :P

Happy anniversary!
Being on the other side of the date line means it'll be on my birthday! So I plan to relax and watch the drama and feel the feels on the internet.
