Weekend Update With Daniel
Hello from Sunny San Diego, where today it rained. For like 5 minutes. Luckily I wasn’t having a parade! LOL, no. Just a day at the beach with my Hungarian Man. We wanted to something different, away from the constant company of friends and booze. So we went to the beach with a make-shift picnic lunch and some bottled water. We ate at a table amongst all of the tourists at Mission Beach and then went on a long hike/walk around the paths throughout the park. It was nice. We actually chatted the entire time about a lot of things. It’s can be awkward, that first actually *alone together* date. We did just fine. *grin*
In other news, the weekend was again a blast. I think my new job will have to offer weekends off. They are my favorite times!! Thursday was our early weekend kick off hanging with @lazSD and his roomies as well as some lingering out-of-towners from pride. I may or may not have drank too much and was home early (thanks to @lazSD). Friday was a much needed night in. My cat has been under the weather with her missing meow and meds. She needed love. I also rented two movies to burn through these free movie coupons from my cable provider Time Warner. So then Saturday I went with @lazSD to take his cat Tigger to the doctor. He has been peeing out of the box, which can be a sign of a UTI. We’ll know Monday. After that we lunched with his roomies (a really great couple) as well as out-of-towners and another couple we are friends with. (Those last guys are online and review places and food on a blog. I’ll have to see if I can link to them…)
Anyway, the unemployed (me) and the frugal (@lazSD) were outvoted and we ended up the the exclusive Martini’s Above Fourth for the rest of the evening. Cheap drinks in a fancy gourmet martini bar? No fun. But we did it. The company was good and we had the whole patio to ourselves. Yay. (There was a drag queen performing inside. If you follow me on Instagram you may have seen her in her ComicCon finery…)
And today is where I started. You are all caught up! Have a fantabulous Monday!
Hello Interweb!
And so I said to myself, “Self, (that’s what I call myself when talking to myself) you should blog something today”. And here we are. How are YOU? I am good. I have had a HUGE two weeks. Huge. Yes, in all caps.
First we had to suffer through the Fourth of July. Ugh. Bad times. Let’s not talk about it. Then it was Pride Week here in the lovely San Diego. The weather was amazing. I actually didn’t mind being unemployed that week to be honest. Haha. Now if you know me, I have boycotted all of SD Pride since moving here. After San Francisco and all that, well, it just never was important. Plus I was in my relationship and all… We did our own thing. Anyhoo, I had a great Pride. Friday I did what we call “Top of the Park”, which is a weekly men’s martini night atop one of the more glamorous old hotels in the gayborhood with an amazing view. It was packed, but we were spoiled as my Hungarian BF works there and was bar tending for the event. I was with a friend from Palm Springs and his pal, a comedian from New York. We had a blast mingling and chatting with the mens. These guys knew like everyone I didn’t so basically we knew a lot of people. HA! After that we dined across the street at the fabulous Jimmy Carter’s. It’s Mexican food. I know you can’t tell by the name. Also they have a full bar now. With the right glasses and such. Give them a go if you are in town. Amazing mole. Of course I had to whisk my out-of-towners to my favorite place. Urban Mo’s. It was amazingly packed. A line for tables around the block. We were seated in like 5 minutes. I LOVE THAT PLACE. My friends, as well as myself, were impressed. We drank more, looked at the pretty people, ect… it was cool.
Saturday I called Time-out. I stayed home. My guy was working again and I didn’t want to crash his friends weekend. Invites from my people were nonexistent. I have no idea what they all did. Sunday tho. OMG. You guys. I have to preface this.
I WENT TO MY FIRST EVER CIRCUIT PARTY.
It was amazing. The San Diego Zoo Pride Party. So gorgeous. A great venue. Had a blast. Danced my damn face off actually. Long story. Then an AFTER PARTY. Me. I haven’t done that in YEARS. All my SF days came flooding back…. It was fun. We were safe and had a great time. Finished off the evening with an early breakfast at the Denny’s.
Anyhoo, now I have the Lion installed on my iMac. We have been playing touchy-feely all day. I love Lion and my Trackpad. I haven’t been at my desk this much in years…. LOL
Marisol’s Birthday @ Urban Mo’s
We LOVE this gal!!
