My posse's on Broadway, erm, I mean Polk Street

Spent Friday night with my two favorite guys - Michael and Nick.  We were at Bar Johnny for Jess' birthday bonanza.  The place was wee and crowded but their cocktail menu was sweet!  I had a few cocktails made with tequila, basil and some other sheesh.  Don't remember what they called it but it has the word "posse" in the name - what's not to like?

So, with this posse beverage in my hand (and belly) and Michael and Nick (the two silliest guys I know) by my side you know it was a good time.  I don't remember a lot of details except for the foxy bartender, Michael's friend's checkerboard slip-on Vans (meow!), "I Want Your Sex" on the jukebox, my saying something totally inappropriate (and untrue) about Michael's and my relationship to his co-worker (yikes...) and the warm, tasty, maple-y goodness from Bob's.

Spending time with Michael and Nick made me nostalgic for the good old days.  Two Beer Wednesday anyone?

Land of the free and the home of the wave

I'm watching Dirty Jobs on the tele tonight (Mike Rowe - meow!).  He's working on an alligator farm and the guy who runs the farm is wearing a Tulane t-shirt (you know, IAH's alma mater and sheesh).  Way to represent, alley-gay-dah man.

You're so beautiful you could be a part-time model

Another glass of hell?

Had dinner last night with Ann, Sarah and The Tami at the Schnitzel Haus.  The food was good (albeit heavy) and the company was fabulous (highlight of the night [and there were many] was Sarah yelping "Yes, that guy's a pussy!" to The Tami's tale of a pussy boyfriend spotted at a sports bar this past weekend).  

Oh, yeah - and this song was playing in the background - enjoy:

Another highlight was the beer menu.  While we didn't recognize any of the options we felt we had to imbibe.  The first option on the menu had the word hell in it - how could I resist a tall glass of hell?  And, I'll tell you what - that glass of hell sure was good.  If hell is really that smooth and tasty - count me in.

Need more pup in your life?

Check out this precious pup cam.  I'm going to make a cuppa cocoa, bring the laptop to the wee couch and cancel the rest of today's plans.

I think that their squeaks translate to "I love you, Aunt IAH".  In fact, I know they do.

Douchebags on parade

Went to the mall today (don't judge me!) and, well, yikes...

Things I learned at the mall today:

• young girls dress like whores
• their moms wear too much makeup (and hair spray)
• perfume gives me a headache (except for the one I wear, of course)
• the kiosks in the middle of the mall floor sell nothing but total poo (Clip on hair extensions?)
• handbags at Nordstrom are expensive
• handbags at H&M are cheapy
• people seem to think it's acceptable to talk on the phone all the time (e.g., in the bathroom, while shopping)
• I have become either a total crabbypants and/or mean old lady
• I have a crush on Tim Robbins 
• almost everybody at the mall call be classified as a douchebag (in my book, that is)

A weekend so good I'm only now (sort of) recovering

Oh, jeez - I don't even know where to begin.  All I can say is that it was the most fun-, action-, food- and friend-filled weekend I've had in a while.

Friday night was dinner in Santa Cruz with Jose, Juan Jose and Dana.  I miss seeing Jose and Juan Jose every day - those guys just kill me.  And Dana?  Well, she's just the best hostess in the whole wide world.  Delicious cocktails and wicked good food (oysters with bacon, people, oysters with bacon!!).

Saturday was spent napping/ recovering and then off to Loraine's birthday dinner.  Had a great time and the food was very good.  Elsie and I had some kind of peanut curry tofu - yes, please.  Finished the night off with The Tami's homemade cupcakes - oh, yeah...

Spent Sunday with Paul and Matt.  Celebrated Paul's birthday with lunch at Benihana (in Concord, of course - ay dios mio!).  The food was really good (as were the mai tai and sake).  And these boys are so precious they even watched a couple of episodes of Real Chance of Love with me :)

Who has the greatest friends in the whole world?  IAH does, that's who.
