Secrets

Just discovered the PostSecret blog thanks to this guy’s links (who I started reading after reading a great post of his that the Daily Kos posted).. Damn funny images they got up there on PostSecret…

hows that for a odd trail of links? 🙂

now back to reality..

Vacation Season

I don’t know why it has to happen this way but I can’t complain.. It seems that vacation season is fast upon us… Matt and Brian and Drew and Adrian are going with us for a week in Mexico next week. We got a week in a condo in Puerta Vallarta from the silent auction at the HRC ball and decided to go with these guys over Halloween. Figured it’d be interesting to be there for that time of year and I’m happy to escape the Castro for that night…

Then i’ve got a week off from work for Thanksgiving – Steve decided to shut us down for the week as a reward so I need to find something to do to pass the time given that Kevin doesn’t have the day off… Granted I’ll be spending part of it writing performance reviews… but still will be nice to have it off.. Then there’s christmas week… So I should have plenty of time over the next months to get some of my steam back.. Just gotta figure out what to do with it! 🙂

Heterosexual Marriage

Just browsing my news as I eat my lunch and this article caught my eye and made me giggle:

Texas Anti-Gay Amendment Could Nix Straight Marriages
by 365Gay.com Newscenter Staff

(Austin, Texas) A proposed amendment to ban same-sex marriage in Texas could also be used to nullify traditional marriages a group of straight couples says.

…

I’m sure there is plenty of nuance and fine print that leaves this open to interpretation.. But still made me giggle… And the last bit about the KKK being against gay marriage just added to the giggles… Love that they’ve got people like Fred Phelps and the KKK supporting their efforts.. I’m sure it’ll help…

Sorry.. just had to share…

So then came Saturday night… A bunch of guys I know throw this huge party at The Archbishops Mansion over by Alamo Square and Kevin and I went this year… Theme was ‘The Sporting Life’ and everyone was dressed up in a sports theme including us in Karate Gi’s… The party was a lot of fun but kinda nuts… Lots of crazy people, hot guys, and cool costumes… Check out the pictures for your self… I claim no responsibility for the content (though I did keep a few o the pix to myself! :):))

My Friday night with Varla

To start of our weekend Kevin and I went to an Oktoberfest party for one of his vendor’s from work (Splash Events if you’re curious) after which we blazed up to the city to see Varla Jean Merman perform in the mission. SUCH a funny show and such a fun crowd. In case you don’t know who she is you NEED to rent Girls will be Girls – she’s in it along with Coco Peru and Evie Harris… Then go see her… really damn funny! 🙂

I’ve spent a bunch of time weeding through all of my pix and stumbled across this cute one of my little sis and her beau… Was taken on that infamous trip to Houston for my cousin’s wedding… I don’t remember the name of the bar but it was a cool bar tucked back in a strip mall near the Houstonian… Figured I’d share! 🙂
