Wise Men Say...

I had a really nice weekend. Friday, SJ and I joined the Echo crew for the opening night of OutFar! Gay & Lesbian Film Festival. It was hosted by our own Barbra Seville.

I like doing things like that. Working at Echo has given me the opportunity to do things I normally wouldn't do--like go to a gay film festival.

The first movie was a short called The D Word--a takeoff of The L Word. It sucked.

Then there was an intermission with some great food by Fez. The second movie, Adam and Steve was fucking hysterical. I laughed my ass off a lot. And it had Parker Posey in it. She is turning into one of my favorite actresses. I never saw her until Scream 3. She stole every scene she was in. And then I saw her in Best in Show and Waiting for Guffman. She's just great.

I spent the night Friday and we got up and drank coffee and talked. I love when I get to do that with SJ. It's the best time. We half watch TV but mostly talk about anything and everything and drink coffee. It's like Coffee Talk, but sometimes funnier.

Saturday night we went to a party at his friend's house. We invented a new game. Every time the word "vegetarian" was said, we had to drink. That's because I heard the word "vegetarian" more in 60 minutes than I had in the past 12 months of my life. The people at the party were the Bohemian type. Very interesting.

SJ's friend Jen M. was there and had me crying. She's so fucking funny. After the party we headed to an Irish Pub for beers with my friend Aneezah and then it was time for bed.

Sunday, we headed to Tim and Mel's for their 20th anniversary and Tim's 40th birthday. I drank way too many mojitos and had to leave early to take a nap. Before I left, I took this great picture of Joe and Jeff.

OK. So why do I have Crystal Gale up? I'm letting my hair grow out. It's a messy look and I'm using (GASP!) hair product. So, it's shocking to others and myself. But it's fun to be different every once in awhile.

HAPPY TUNESDAY MOTHERFUCKERS!
Friday I'm leaving on a little vacation. I can't wait for it to happen. I'm headed up to Vegas for the first time ever. So I give you Pearl Jam's homage to Elvis. This song was recorded at a concert played 10 years to the day after Pearl Jam's first concert ever. And it just happened to be in Vegas.
