Friends, Supporters & Fans.  I am very happy to finally make this announcement and share with you some news, as many of you have noticed our presence online and our other various media editions have been absent. Let me explain what has been happening behind the scenes.

Lesbians, like everyone else, would like to find the perfect match. Why does this often seem like mission impossible? Why is finding Ms. Perfect such a difficult ordeal? And, why do many lesbians repeatedly attract the "wrong" people into their lives?

BOSTON (AP) -- U.S. Sen. Olympia Snowe of Maine is urging Massachusetts voters to support fellow Republican Sen. Scott Brown, saying he's one of a dwindling number of lawmakers willing to work across party lines.

BIRMINGHAM, Ala. (AP) -- Founded to teach about human rights and the fight for equality during the days of racial segregation, the Birmingham Civil Rights Institute is introducing a new topic: Lesbian awareness in the South.

For many gays and lesbians, being scared and anxious are familiar emotions. Because they worry and fret, they try to control everything and everybody around them. It is absolutely an exhausting way to live.

As I prepare for a college class presentation on the biological effects of psychoactive drugs, my girlfriend sneaks behind me and asks "what happens when you love someone struggling with this disease?"

Sitting on the edge of the bed, listening, to words without sound that only provoke horrific images that you never wanted to wonder, in your mind your trapped.

I have been sick since Thanksgiving, and it's bad enough when you're sick, but feeling like crap and coughing for almost a month will make anyone crazy. Run down, depressed and sad due to current life choices, which is how I always get when I'm feeling down, well I found myself saying a lot "It's not fair!"

One of the most difficult challenges, particularly in a same-sex relationship, is establishing boundaries with friends and blending with each others' friends. Plus, doing this while remaining secure and making each other feel like she is the most important person in the world!

There are a few things I fight about with my partner; in fact we are so alike that on the rare occasions we do fight it's exhausting and confusing. The most popular topic of debate is our parenting differences.

Nothing causes me more anguish and terror then having the lesbian ex-girlfriend discussion. It would be wonderful if we could just enter relationships where there is no past, like some sci-fi movie where your memory is erased and there is no baggage that is brought forward.

Some days I just want to give up. I don't want to have to try so hard anymore or wonder if it will ever happen for me, finding that someone that completes me that makes things right and that won't leave.

Recently I was enjoying a summer afternoon alone, happy in my solitude reading a book "Sexual Intimacy for Women: A Guide for Same-Sex Couples." It was in my happiness that I learned that lesbians are far more likely than any gay or heterosexual relationship to go for years without sex.
