I'd like to thank everyone for their kind words (about myself, fellow bilerico contributor Linda Perdue, and the Indiana Equality Region 8 team) concerning the passage of Proposition 622. The work on the HRO took a lot of personal investment and energy. I've taken a few days off from everything but Christmas shopping and cleaning my house as well as the opportunity to catch up on two other important personal issues - romance and sleep! *grins*

I thought I'd post some links to some of the HRO media that I didn't post throughout the week. After Christmas posts will continue regularly.
