Saturday, I went to the closing ceremonies of the 2006 Chicago Gay Games. They weren't nearly as long or boring as the opening ceremonies, from what I hear - I didn't go, and am glad that I didn't.
I got to see Christine W. and some latin guy dance dance dance... I got see hear some really bad gay comics talk about typical gay comedian stuff (this includes Ant - of Celebrity Fit Club fame - classy, really). I got to see gay cowboys line dance, and then I got to see gay men twirl around fake plastic rifles.
The end of it for us was after we had seen Cyndi Lauper - who was draped in a gay pride flag dress, and had a woman wearing a suit playing the violin. The appearance was reminiscent of a certain Eurythmics video from the 1980's... But overall, it was fun and I'm glad I went - I do like to see what varied pop-culture phenoma happens around me in person when I can.
Friday, I think I went on a date of sorts? LOL... More on that later...
Saturday night I hung out with Bob and Steve - those fuckers have 3 cars, 2 segways and a 4 story townhouse with a roofdeck... FUCK THEM!!! ;-) they're actually really nice guys, and I hung out there pretty late just shooting the shit with them and a few Australian guys that seem to be flocking to the states to visit.
Sunday, I hung out with Tim (who used to live in my building) and THEN went to see Oh My God at the Wicker Park festival... Good times, and they're an AWESOME band to see live. They seemed a little shaky, and the singer I think forgot the words a couple times. However, they play a mean set, and the new material was fantastic - can't wait for the album.
Tonight, Them vs. Them plays at Navy Pier. After that, I think I just wanna go home and veg, but I'll probably end up out and about getting a drink or something here or there... Which is fine, I like being out and such with friends.
Btw, I know I've said this a thousand times... Go see the Strangers with Candy movie. Funny, Funny, Funny, Funny, Funny... and then funny some more.
This morning I told T's parents that I would not be able to buy the condo after all - they are probably pissed. I'm hoping they don't retaliate by not letting me rent it at all... I guess I wouldn't blame them, but that would SERIOUSLY suck, especially cause I found a new roommate...
Chris - seems like a cool guy, and it will be nice to have the house in a respectable order once again. I welcome him...
I also welcome lunch... so I'll talk to you later... |

Hopefully everything works out with the condo and roommate situation. And hopefully you enjoyed yourself yesterday. And Sunday. Because I did.
Man, I really tried to make this funny but I think I've failed. Sorry Mikey.
