Homeward Bound

I’m extremely surprised that I slept at all last night, but I did. I slept a full 6 hours which is quite rare for me. When I woke up this morning, all that was required was a quick shower and to throw my remaining toiletries in my luggage and go. As advised by American Express [...]

Splash, Detox, And Be Sinful This Weekend In NYC

There’s nothing like spring and summer in New York City. The people are definitely coming out from hibernation, and the list of weekend activities in and around New York City is plentiful. I’ve been watching my mailing lists and parsing Facebook groups for new or different events that I haven’t yet attended. I have placed details [...]

Winter Party 2009

I think I’m going to attend the Winter Party Festival again this year. Last year was my first trip to the Winter Party, and I had an amazing time. I met a lot of cool people that I still see at some of the other parties I have been to over the past year. And now [...]

Popular

Wow, tonight was a good ego boost for me. I really feel popular this evening. First, the man I will refer to as my New Jersey friend called. My New Jersey friend is a gentleman that I met while living in New Jersey (obviously) that liked to participate in oral sex in the bathroom of [...]

Lowering The Rent

I wrote a letter to my landlord earlier this week. I told her that I have to vacate my apartment on November 1st. I had to find a less expensive space to live in. I am a little sad to be leaving this place. It was a great find. Kathy and I found it on Craigslist. It [...]

Dancing Queen

When it comes to dancing, I’m a whore. Not even 24 hours have passed since I learned I wouldn’t be going to Virginia Beach and running in the Rock ‘N Roll Half Marathon, and I already have my tickets to both Alegria and to Peter Rauhofer’s Work Party at the Highline Ballroom (both of which appear [...]

WordPress for iPhone

The App store has finally released WordPress for the iPhone. Now there is even more opportunity to blog and capture events. In this test, I wrote an entry, saved it as a draft, and added pictures before publishing. So far, so good. But it doesn’t use a wysiwyg text editor, and I don’t know how [...]

Possible Return of the Roxy

In this morning’s edition of AM New York, there was an article on page 5 indicating that the Roxy may reopen. My heart immediately skipped a beat. I had heard of the legendary parties at the Roxy before I had even moved to the New York City area. Upon arrival, I went twice within the [...]

This is Amanda's 'model' pose.

4th of July 2008 in Hoboken

I wasn’t feeling very well on the 4th of July, my allergies are usually in full swing every July. My nose was running, my throat was sore from the post nasal drip, and I had a headache. So I did what any logical allergy sufferer would do – I pumped myself full of Claritin D [...]

The crowd gathers to dance.

NYC Gay Pride Pier Dance 2008

Well, I didn’t make the Gay Pride Parade yet again this year. I attended entirely too many back to back events and needed to rest before the next one, the Pier Dance. I’ve heard many good things about the Pier Dance, but I have to tell you I was a little hesitant to go. The two [...]

This is my before shot. Laser in hand, I ran off to Alegria. I was only able to wear my shirt for 2 minutes upon entering. It was very hot!

NYC Alegria Pride 2008

Alegria only happens a few times throughout the year. There was a disappointing Alegria event in May for Memorial Day Weekend. Fortunately, Alegria Pride was much better. Once again the event was held at New York City’s Webster Hall. Some people don’t like Webster Hall. I actually like it; I enjoyed Alegria Pride significantly more than Alegria Memorial Day. I think it helped [...]

Pacha NYC Raided

Rumor has it that Pacha NYC was raided last night. From what I hear, the club is shut down until further notice. Anyone planning to go to Pacha anytime this weekend should check to make sure the venue is open.

This is what I originally looked like before sweating my ass off!

Work – Pride 2008

I kicked off my Pride Weekend by attending Peter Rauhofer’s Work party at Discotheque. The DJ’s for the evening were Peter Rauhofer and Offer Nissim. The place was packed full of people. To be honest, after attending the Work party a couple of weeks ago with DJ Paulo, I wasn’t sure what to expect, even [...]

My favorite model... with a girl!!

Diesel Fresh and Bright Event

I went to the Diesel Fresh and Bright underwear event this evening. It was held at Universal Gear on 17th St and 8th Ave. I went because all the underwear I currently own have stretched out and look like boxers when they are actually boxer briefs. I went with every intention of buying a couple of pairs of [...]

NYC Pride Preparations

New York City Gay Pride is almost here. I’ve already started arranging my plans. I’m actually a little behind the power curve. I became blissfully aware of just how behind I am when I discovered that I could not purchase my tickets to Alegria Pride online. I quickly called Universal Gear on 17th and 8th [...]
