Too Busy For Love - A Whole Lotta Best in DTLA Proud!

I'd love to go to that movie with you, the one about the robot dog, but I can't!  I have a very drag heavy weekend ahead of me!  Tonight, I have to go see Kay Sedia & Lotta Slots in their show,

A WHOLE LOTTA KAY at the Casita Del Campo!

Then, Sunday I have a double whammy of drag; in the morning, I have a talent preview for BEST IN DRAG SHOW where I have to show the producers exactly what I'm doing in the show.

 My talent portion is not turning out exactly how I planned, but I can still make it work.  The toughest part is figuring out how to get this hunky guy to rehearse!

This is Duke Shoman, you may remember him as one of Chico's Angels' hunks.  He is a living doll (and a great photogopher!) but he doesn't have a lot of time.  I can't reveal too much, but my talent portion involves him shirtless, blindfolded and holding a stick!  I just gotta figure out a way to bring it all together for the meeting Sunday morning.

What do you mean I skipped Saturday?  OMG! It's my blog, I think I know what I'm doing...

I'll be busy Saturday, checking out the grounds of DTLA Proud where Chico's Angels will be hosting the stage 7:00 - 10:00 PM on Sunday!

Then, on Monday, I gotta take a personal hour or two from work to go be interviewed, IN DRAG, as Frieda Laye for a very local station.

So, while I'd love to fondle your dog while watching a metal dog on the big screen this weekend, I can't! I'm too busy!!

Gay of A Certain Age - 48 & Nellie

Saturday I turned 48 and had a blast!

It started off with a surprise drink from my friends Rick & Jeffrey, who were sitting at another table.

Then the wait staff surprised me with a Tequilla shot.

That little glass looks more like three shots to me, but who am I to complain?

SMOOTH!

Then came my favorite part of the night...

remember that "Nomophobia" thing I have about getting people's name wrong,

well, Chico's Angels Hunk, Josh shows up, 

and I introduce him to the room as "Trevor"!

I didn't even realize until a few minutes later when he said, 

"Thanks for that..."

Maybe it was the triple tequilla shot.

Muh DAB, Dennis and I shared the celebration, 

which consisted of a few appetizers in a back room

of the Casita Del Campo,

chat & the Nellie Olesons after.

It was a nice crowd, 

take a look:

Yep, these are some of my friends.

They're all pretty cool, 

except for that Trevor, 

he's aloof.

 The wait staff surprised us with Flan & a song!

After, we headed downstairs to the 

Cavern Club Theater

to watch the Nellie Olesons,

who are literally

balls out

funny!

We shamelessly broke the 

no photos in the theater rule

(well before the show started)

After the show I was a nerd

and got a photo with each and every single one of the Nellies!

All in all 

it was a fun,

easy breezy, 

laugh outloud

good time birthday,

made even more special by sharing it with

muh DAB, Dennis Hensley! 

Too Busy For Love - Birthday Edition

I'd love to go to Cabo with you, but I can't!  I'm too busy with my birthday weekend!
I started the day off crafting Halloween Cards.

It was a fun, creative way to start the weekend and I'll show you a few of the more
blog friendly ones later.
Then, I went to the movies with one of muh DABs.

THE MARTIAN was a good pick.  I really enjoyed it, it was a good adventure movie and it made me forget all about the stupid stuff Matt Damon has been spouting lately. I would recommend it to a DAB.

Tomorrow, for my birthday, muh DAB, Dennis Hensley, whose birthday was on the 29th,  and I are hosting a few friends at the Casita Del Campo with some Mexi-Snacks & chat, followed by a walk downstairs to the basement, known as the Cavern Club Theater.  There, we'll watch The Nellie Olesons latest show.

I've been a fan for a long time and this is the first time they've performed together in a good number of years.

Sunday, I'm heading over to Tom of Finland's house, where he's hosting a some of his artist friends- some photographers, painters, sketchers, performers and such...

I plan to support my artist friends, so who knows what kind of art work I'll be bringing home.  ...or man.

So, thanks for the invite, but I can't, I'm too busy!!
