Who Are These People?

I can barely keep the events of my life in focus through the end of June — the Chorus' Pride concerts the last weekend of June are the furthest-out things I have planned. And yet I have friends with tickets to see Wicked in Tampa next March, and I just stumbled across information on next year's all-gay cruise to Alaska, a trip I covet dearly, and it's in September, 2007. And entire categories are already on waitlist or nearly sold out?!?
