also j0rd don't let the "am i fucking this up?" thing get the best of you (he says, from experience) - it's tough to be clear-eyed about this sort of thing but alfred's advice is good

which, speaking of: the martini with a splash of st. germain is my favorite discovery of the week, thanks alfred!

my bf & i sort of talked about it and i've talked to some other friends of mine who basically gave me the same advice but the anxiety is still there

anyway, thx

chicago gays: have you heard anything about this? friend of mine who lives there just posted this on FB:

whoa, i lived just around the corner from archie's for a year and i really liked it. it always struck me as an archetypal chicago corner bar--it's been around for like 50 years, everyone there is super friendly, they have an old hamm's sign ("from the land of sky blue waters"), and they have homemade cheese puffs for bar snacks. one of the bartenders would always say hi to me when i saw her around the neighborhood. i never got to any of the queer nights there, though. really sucks to hear about this.

I had not heard of this group or about the incident at Archie's. Corey lives very near there.

My pleasure! Isn't this refreshing? The sourness of the gin complements the St. Germain.

Oh wow, that story about Archie's is terrible. I'm never going there again.

JF is gone, but I'm curled up in his bed with his cat reading a book.

My bf Phillip is watching Myrrha for me while I'm in FL for the week. She apparently slept cuddled next to him - something she never does with me. ;_;

He is chewing on a blanket, which according to Google is calling smurgling? Why are there words for very particular cat behaviours. I don't understand.

xp Aw. Maybe she just misses your presence and needs more comfort than usual?

actually it's probably the fact that she sleeps by the radiator at home, and his place doesn't have one

according to google or according to crazy cat owners?

(yourselves excluded from the crazy bit, obv)

As much as I talk to my cat, I definitely qualify as crazy.

The house I'm abt to move into comes with the most hyperactive kitten I have evah seen and it mews
and snuggles and then darts across the kitchen and dining room at like 300mph

who else is visiting NYC in holiday interregnum besides donna? and river wolf?

judith, who art thou?

judith is plax

I will be in NYC from the 30th to the 4th! how exciting!

The boy and I are (probably) going to be in NYC from January 2 until the 6th or 7th, but I'm still trying to figure out reasonable accommodations etc. before buying bus tickets.

I'd totally be down for a FAP, but I'm not sure how skittish JF will decide to be. He can be a bit shy.

oh hey.

sarge, i was noticing the other day that you continue to look really fine.

also, morbz and lou and everyone in nyc: i'm sorry. it was a whirlwind weekend, a bit less than 48 hours, and all i could muster was going out and getting wasted with a few of my best friends, then spending the next day recovering, then doing it all again, then eating brunch and leaving.

ha, thanks man

and hey, my boyfriend and i missed each other so much when i was gone it was paaaainnnful, almost. lots of silly text messages. we pulled a "wahoo" in a famous Castro diner the night i got back.

i've sent sooo many gay text messages in the two days that my bf has been gone

the boy and i think that we are the only ones who use emoticons. i do the winking one constantly, as in, ;-) (what i really want to say is that i want to bone you right now)

*code*

i'm trying to test my bf's level of emoticon usage. i can get on some pai mei shit.

he started it with me and i used to be grossed out by it. but then....he converted me.

What is a "wahoo", tabes?

Assuming it's not just an expression of glee at seeing someone you have missed.
