woosh

It is now just a matter of time. I have been on a permanent vacation that will soon end. I look forward to the following months.. of rushing to catch trains.. to some sad place that will take up half of my waking hours... and on fridays I will collect my sad little paycheck of which the government has kept almost half my earnings... only to find three decades later that there is nothing left in social security for me to survive. So for now I will enjoy the last bits of freedom. I will sleep in.. stay up late.. cuddle in bed with my cat and my man. Enjoy the falling leaves and chill night air.

Until I find a new job.

To Have Not

And so it begins.. reality is sinking.. the economy is down the toilet and I can't seem to find a job!
Although I have become very comfortable being unemployed and have had tons of adventures I fear that the end is near. At this point I should just settle for a job at the local fast food joint.. at least i will get free burgers and biggie fries.

Kisses

End of Sumer Blues!

So the end has come. The days are now shorter and the nights are colder. And although I can safely say that I have had a wonderful summer it still saddens me to have it end. What I have to look forward to know is freezing winds and frozen tears!

This summer brought me.. joy, fun, drinks, kisses and an incredible tan. I guess I know know what it must be like to be "A Lady Who Lunches".. not a care in the world. Oh sure there have been plenty of times that I have wondered how I was going to pay my rent.. or how I was going to avoid getting my phone turned off.. but in the end.. it was worth it. Now I must buckle down and find a big boy job and bundle up for the forth coming winter.

Have fun and remember that sunny days will return again!

They have to eat something...

Garbage!

So as a gay of a certain age I was very excited when I heard the they where remaking the teen drama classic.. 90210! So we waited for weeks for the premiere.. and planned a fun viewing party night.. when the ball finally dropped.. sigh. One of the worst shows on TV.. worse than: Reba, Life According to Jim and Tool Time!

Don't bother I say. Bring me teen dramas with Bulimia, Coke Addictions, Teen Pregnancy, Closeted Gays, Rich Jews, Back Stabbing BFFS..

The Boys of Summer

Kisses followed by Kisses..

that is all I shall write.

For those kids with no manners!

Lena can always teach you something new..

Poor

So as many of you know.. I have been unemployed since March. In an effort to better myself I have been trying to focus on starting my own multi line showroom. As of now I only represent one tiny tshirt line that has brought in zero $$ in profit! Ha! And I think I know why..
For the last few months I have been Boozing like an old french whore! There has been no stopping me.. or my friends for that matter. My poor liver is on it's last stitch and my wallet is empty. Although, I must admit that this has been one of the most enjoyable summers ever! Spending almost everyday sunbathing and drinking is very uplifting!

K.I.T.

Love, what is it good for?

I was chatting with a pal yesterday and we came across the topic of love, as one often does on a boring sunday aftrenoon. And we came to one simple conclusion.. Love, what is it good for? Nothing! Sure it's nice to have someone to share interest, bills and bodily fluids with. But then what? What else can be gained by such enterprises? I can't get pregnat.. or get married. So what's the purpose? Why do we waste away our days and nights fighting and complaining and comparing battle scars?
I think I should start a list..
Pros:
$
Kisses

Cons:
$
Punches

Hmm.. this is harder than I thought.


I suppose we all really just want the same thing..
Free room and board on Fire Island!

Don't look at me!

So as far as spring goes I am over it! It seems that NYC is having some kind of weird wet spring. I was hoping for sunny days, flowers blossoming on trees.. shorts and sandals! Instead we have cold rain and windy nights.. I might as well be living in Oregon. Oh how gross! I say bring me the sun, the hot sun, where one can tan and sweat and tan some more. Bring me the days of being hot, lazy, with excessive drinking and free bar-b-ques!

Our day will come...

The Married Life

Sometimes I wonder if I will ever marry. I'm sure there are plenty of you out there who don't believe in such old fashioned ideals. But I have always considered myself old fashioned and have always pictured myself in a white dress walking down the alter to the tune of Married with Children.
Now it seems that I'm not the only GAY under 30 who feels the same way. This Sunday in the Times there was an article on young gays and marriage. There might still be hope.

Ring Ring Ring

A few years ago I was introduced to the amazingness that is Raffaella Carra! She's a huge star in parts of Europe and South America.. my favorite part of her videos is her use of scantily clad male dancers.. sooooo hot! Here's one of my favorites involving a huge red phone.

So long poverty!

and hello unemployment!
Sometimes it does pay to quit your job. Or at least to quit your job and then have your jerk bosses ask you to leave without finishing your two weeks. In the last month and a half I have been on 15 job interviews.. I have dressed up, dressed down, been told that I was under qualified, over qualified... to no avail. But at least we can always count on Uncle Sam.

Cheers and happy job hunting!

Peg Leg and Morphine

When I lived in SF I did lots of horrible things. I attended very scandalous after hour parties and partook on very seedy drug binges. But this is not new to you. One particularly seedy after party took place deep in the Mission. I had been performing at a local drag bar and during closing time was forced to wait outside with the rest of the drunk patrons for what is known as a "sidewalk sale". A bunch of underfed hipsters were looking to keep the party going. I ended up sharing a cab with them to an unknown location. At the party were a number of kooky characters.. trannies, hipsters, junkies, trannie hipsters.. and so on. There was this one gentleman.. much older than the rest.. Vietnam vet, with a prosthetic leg and an eye patch I believe. He had a giant plastic advil container.. full of Morphine. Let's say that he was the hit pf the party. He started passing around pills to all the needy hipsters and spilling a few. I being the selfish junkie that I was picked up the pills that he had spilled on the dirty carpet and swallowed about five of them. Next thing I know I was being kicked by the guy who actually lived in the apartment and the sun was out. It was 3pm on a hot sunny Mission day. I was still in full makeup and had left an impression on the carpet.. like a mirror, sleeping dragqueen! I remember not being able to move and feeling very nauseous. My friends were also sprawled out on the floor.. everybody fully dressed. Sadly I had passed out during the height of the party and nobody had bothered to wake me or move me. I wonder how many people had stepped on me, or taken naughty pictures of my drugged out body... in full Heather Locklier drag!!! Feathered wig and all! Besides feeling like I could throw up at any second we were being forced to leave and go out into the harsh daylight. And I in runny drag makeup had to face the world looking like a common street whore. I managed to quickly wash my face and steal a pair of boxers and snuck out. Walking the streets of the dirty dirty mission in mid day wearing only boxers and carrying last nights skirt and wig was quite humbling. I didn't mind the curious stares from all the Mexicans that walked the streets. I didn't mind the fact that at any second I could step on a dirty needle or broken beer bottle. At this point it could not get worse. I still remember that one legged man with the unlimited supply of Morphine and wish that I had scored his phone number. Can you imagine if I had? I probably wouldn't be sitting here now typing this.

Craigslist Post of the Week

So last summer there was an incident on Staten Island involving a former "commune" member shooting her former leader. It was all over the news and quite funny. It turns out that the "commune" or cult, owns and runs a trendy thrift shop chain on Staten Island. So me and my husband took a trip out there to check things out. We found creepy cultish zombies with happy retail smiles lurking in every corner of these shops. We did manage to snag some great deals on some awesome LPs. Ok.. so today I am checking out Craigslist.. as I often do when I am bored and came across this amazing job opportunity. If you don't apply I will!!!
