I call this still life: “It’s 330am here in Sydney and I’m suffering from jet lag - which I’m usually quite impervious to - and so I’ve been awake for 2 hours and now slowly-but-surely filling with anxious, sparking dread on how to survive the day mentally. Thanks for coming to my Ted Talk.” Or possibly just “SIGH” for short. . . . . #jetlag #whycantisleep #sigh #awake #cantsleep #displeased #restoftodayisgonnasuck #caffeineIVplease

Outwardly in 1985, I was avidly playing with my multitude of He-Man action figures. And I really did enjoy the make-believe battles with them (as well as their insanely buff bods😉). Inwardly, however, I desperately wanted to play with She-Ra as her world just felt so full of magic 🌈 and light 💫. Mom would have been totally fine with this, I suspect. Probably Dad would have been, too. But I was just too hung up on boys vs. girls norms of the time. Hell, I was afraid to play with red color toys as I thought they were too ‘girlie’ 🤦🏻‍♂️. Happy to let my inner She-Ra shine in 2019 and to all the parents who have moved beyond gender norms I 👏🏻 applaud 👏🏻 you 👏🏻. Thanks to @daniel_royston for knowing me so well and surprising me with my new fave T-shirt! ❤️❤️❤️ . . . . #instagay #instabeard #shera #princessofpower #tshirt #youdoyou #lgbtq #gay #lgbt #80s #80skid #mattel #beardedgay

Things I miss about America: really freakin’ good BBQ! Had a most wonderful dinner last night @missionbbq outside in the spring warmth catching up with Max, Kat and the effervescent, extroverted Vivian Rose. So thankful we got to carve out some time together! ❤️ . . . . #bbq #friends #maryland #catchup #allthemeat #dinner #spring #america

Landed just over 24 hours ago from India and now it’s SYD ➡️ DFW ➡️ IAD today for a week of business at Marriott HQ + onboarding to my new role. Staying in Bethesda Sunday-Thursday so any DC friends have to come visit me in the burbs! 🤣 . . . . #sydney #washingtondc #instagay #instabeard #lgbt #lgbtq #gay #queer #beardgang #beardedgay #beard #scruff #beardo #travel #business #daddyaf
