So I've had this itch to write, but quite frankly I don't even know where to begin. There has been so much going on that I have to actually sit down and organize my thoughts.
We all know that last week was Gay Pride and that I'm still recovering but let me tell you - I had so much fun. Who doesn't want to be trashed by noon, followed by hot men and dance around to amazing music? I mean hello!?! I've networked and made so many new friends..started a new job (kinda on the DL) and even met a few famous people. About a week ago, Laura Linney and Eric McCorrmick both came into my store a day apart from each other, but Laura came in three times that week...to the point that she and I talked about weather, dogs and being busy. She now knows me by a first name basis and I now know her drink - Grande Chi Latte. (Eric's was a double tall skim extra foam latte in case you were interested ;) ) I've found a few cute bars down in the village that are my latest hot spots to 'wine & dine' and dance like a complete fool and to be honest, I love it. I was so excited too, when my BEST friend Lauren came into town for a Bachellorette Party. She spent the first day and 1/2 with me and came to party with me and my boys and let me just tell you..I think we have to have a pt. 2. I celebrated most of my pride week drunk, hanging out with all the boys and watching them kick out the creepy old men from bars who seem to think it's okay to touch themselves in public to the point of erection and think nothing of it. What was his excuse after Edward told him off, "Fuck you mannnn" and he peaced out. And fast. Day after day, I was bar hopping and anticipating the parade and let me tell you...I opened from 5-9am then went to brunch from 10:30-1:30 and then another party from then to 6:00 and then hit the sack. I was soo tired that I think I slept in til 3pm the next day. I've never had so much fun, which is why this weekend I'm taking it a notch down. It's too crazy and it's all rainy and shit and I much rather curl up to a good movie with beer and chips and salsa.
Mr. Black is always amazing. Getting dolled up and wearing wrestling slinglets carrying tray after tray of free shots and drink orders..always fun. The men, the women, the house music. The staff already has a nickname picked out for me...wrestle boy jr. I think it's pretty much fantastic. Considering that I get to be me..half-naked, dancing and drinking booze. I've turned into what my man Jeff calls a "nightlife monkey". Sure enough that's what I am. I work mid-day, and serve the drinks at night. I was serious when I was telling all of you that I wanted to give gogoing/bartending a shot. I'm just lucky that I found all the right connections. Last night, I helped a friend from Barracuda film a music video for his latest single and it was getting glammed up (body glitter, tons of eyeliner, and again the wrestling slinglet) and dance in his video. I can't wait for the Ari Gold video shoot coming up. Speaking of dancing, I was excited to see Nima and Dustin in the lastest issue of HX because I'm also in there from the night I was gogoing at Mr. Black. I look horrible, but it's fun to see familiar faces magazines.
I'm a little burned out, but mehhh that's what summer is all about. ;)
...more later
