I drink therefore I am
Friday evening I got a call from my friend Marc who was here last month on a layover with the airlines. He is back in town for the weekend. For those who don’t know Marc, he is originally from Rochester, NY, now lives in Phoenix, and we have known each other for about 10 years now. He’s a great friend whom I have a lot of history with as friends.
So anyway, I met up with him and his friend Rick who is also from Rochester but now lives here. They were at Moby Dicks and we hung out there pretty much all night. Jason met up with us finally and after they left around 1am, Jason and I continued on for a couple more drinks at Daddys and Midnight Sun.
Saturday was a stay at home day and I began rearranging my room, as well as cleaning my desk. It was long overdue and for some reason, once I got the energy to start, it just continued on for the rest of the day. I started a project of scanning all my printed photos so I can create a hard copy backup and put these away for good. I also re-watched all episodes of Heroes (well listened while I worked) and pretty much came up with several thoughts on the show.
I especially wondered about the 3rd episode as to whether Claires father is good or bad and determined he a) kidnapped and drugged the cop and had his memory erased, and b) tried to kidnap the congressman. Hmmmm…. Good or bad? I wonder.
Saturday night I met up with Stephen and we went out for a bit. We later met up with Marc and Rick again and went to see the drag show at Harvey’s. Marc reminded me of the many nights watching the shows in Rochester. They did seem much better but the drag here is very different from the shows back home. After a few other bars, they left and Stephen and I did too.
Sunday I had to push myself to go to the gym. Since I started the new job its been tough to find the time to go. I get done early on Tuesdays and Thursdays so those seem to be the only days I can go and if something new comes up (as it has seemed to), I end up going once during the week. I haven’t had the energy to go on the weekends since we switched from daylight savings time so Im trying to get back in the habit of going 3 times a week.
Sunday afternoon was the photo shoot. I wasn’t sure what to expect but as it turned out they wanted me and another guy in our jocks with temporary tattoos on our butts. The photo shoot lasted about ½ hour and then it was beer bust time. It was the second half of the SOMA Bare Chest Calendar Men auction and its always a good time. I left around 6 as I usually do and headed home for sleep.
Today was a bit rough but the day is almost done and I will go home to continue my scanning project as well as converting VHS to DVD. Hopefully the rest of my bar came so I can get that put together finally. We shall see what fate has in store.
