And it’s his birthday today!! Let’s celebrate by gazing at his hawtness…
I have actually met him (Fred is a friend of his) and he is just as beautiful in reality. He is also a very nice guy, which I imagine is kinda rare in “gay-celeb” land.. So Happy Birthday Reichen!
Oh look! I DO have a blog!
How is life? Mine, well, pretty good actually. My parents just left Saturday after a fun 7 day visit. Yes, I did say fun. My parents are young for my age as well as young for their ages (it makes sense, think about it). So we were on the go every day. I woke up early, well early for me, every day and took them on an adventure!
Saturday, after fetching them from the San Diego Airport we stopped off at C Level to toast their arrival and enjoy the view. Sunday we headed off to Old Town, where to my surprise there was an Art Festival! We looked at everything. After we were done there, Mom insisted on a trip to the Swap Meet. Ew… we capped off the day with dinner at the Turf Supper Club. Awesome place! What better way to follow up a meal in a dive than a trip to the shishy-est sky bar Altitude?? Monday was all about rest and a home cooked (by me!) meal. Tuesday we did the Geocaching with dad, since it was Richard’s day off. Plus, we wanted to try it with our iPhones. It works! So now we have a log in at the site and 7 caches under our belt. LOL. Obviously Mom had other plans, and was off for a Shopping Day with one of our friends. Later we de-parented at the big SDTweet-Up (#sdtweetup). That was, as always an amazing time! Wednesday my folks and I were off to Temecula Valley Wine Country for a day of tasting and scenery. Fantastic! Thursday was more Geocaching around town. That Geocaching is a great way to see some great sights you wouldn’t otherwise… That night I was pooped so Dad manned the grill and we dined out on the patio at home. Friday was when I finally had to sleep in! Well, till 9:30.. we lazed at the house till Richard got home. He had ditched work early so we shopped and hit up Bing Crosby’s Piano Lounge until it was time for the crowning jewel of the visit: dinner at Kous Kous. My folks got to eat well (very well! you MUST go to Kous Kous!) and meet up with our friends and generally have a great night out. Although we had drinks first at Martinis Above 4th, where the owner stressed me out when he KISSED Richard hello in front of my father. That’s when my father realized we had taken him to a GAY bar. OMG OMG OMG. He never would have known otherwise… Oh well. No harm was done. All was erased by the amazing food at Kous Kous!
As for Saturday… Well that was for packing and the Airport. Buh-bye!
You know what?
Home from our Big Gay LA Adventure…
But now I am tired. But I promise details soon!
Since moving to San Diego Richard and I have been very lucky to have become part of a circle of friends. We all hang out, separately or all together all the time. We always have fun. Whether it’s our weekly SYTYCD parties, movie nights, BBQ’s, or going out to Hillcrest or Downtown and “painting the town”. I consider these people my San Diego family! But lately we have been noticing that we are a bit of a clique. There aren’t really any new faces (well, since Richard and I). No fresh blood. We just aren’t meeting any new people and that makes it tough for the single kids in the group. Not that we want to be matchmakers. Good gawd no! But when you hang out with new people you meet their people… Maybe one of their people might know another single guy and through just getting together our single kids will be exposed to more quality singles? Cause let’s face it, when you hang out at bars every week to meet people you are going to meet people that like hanging out in bars. And aside from all of that, we are a group that likes to entertain. It’s more fun with more people! Right? We decided that Sheila’s BBQ was our big event. We were all to bring new people.
So for me, I am not surprised by any of this. I have been trying to meet people with interests like mine lately, going to the SD Tweet-ups and Blogger Meet-ups, and actually going out and meeting the people I have been talking to on my various online social networks. My goal has been to get some friends who understand what the hell I am talking about with my SEO, CMS, tweets, plurks, and whatnots. People who understand why I constantly check my phone! In the meantime I have met a fair amount of people that I see or talk to regularly enough. So for this past BBQ I was pretty confident that I could get some new folks to come around. As it turned out, not so much. I do understand tho. One I asked at the last minute, and the others, well I mean given the choice I think I’d pick existing friends over newbies… I guess.
Okay wow. I need to make an effort to never record after a early work weekend ever again. Whatever. A sleep deprived me has a cocktail and tries to speak intelligently. The rest is just what you’d expect. So I added a hawt song at the end. As a reward yo… You deserve it if you get there.
I think I was pressured into this one… First, I felt possessive. Second, I need to make sure iTunes still loves me. And 3rd… well, more internet whoring. Heh. Why not? Also, find out why I feel like I stole Christmas....
I just discovered “San Diego’s first GAY THEMED podcast”!!
Huh. The site has been up only since January. The first podcast was in… erm… February.
Okay, so I was gay with a podcast (a gay themed podcast even!) and in San Diego in (believe it or not..) July of ‘06. Check! It’s in the archives.. I’ll wait. I even show up in Google on page 7 for “San Diego gay podcast”. That’s like 3 pages higher than this one.
Just sayin’.

Where did you eat?
I have just finished reading Blind Fall. It’s the latest by Christopher Rice. I have read all his books. I am such a good gay like that. He is gay after all, as well as Anne Rice’s kid. Actually, all that aside he has become one of my favorite authors, and I was looking forward to reading this one. I have to admit it started slow. I feel like Randy Jackson right now, but yo yo dawg, check it out, it was kinda weird for me in the beginning. I think that this story was more of a stretch, I mean in my opinion it had to be difficult for a gay man to create and bring to life a straight Marine character. Luckily, the weirdness in the beginning faded fast and I got completely hooked on the story. As I tend to do if I like the book. It is not uncommon for me to finish a good book in one or two sittings. I think I read this one in three. That’s still a very good book. In the end I was sobbing too. But I won’t give away plot. I suck at that and will ruin it somehow.... How’s about the Barnes & Noble synopsis?
