I wish to barf on my shoes.



Gail and I had a couple few drinks at Steuben's while we waited for Michael to walk Baily. I dig that place! Its so L.A. chic inside (and out I guess.) The food is simple and pleasent. It's kinda ala carte. I just adore adore adore the style of the place. OK, so I would have been more than fine just sitting there throwing back greyhounds, but Gail’s best friend, Tina, called and beckoned us to Elway’s. Tina was one of the first people I met when I transferred to Denver. She is one of the very few Denver folk that saw me at 300+ pounds. Tina quit the airline, so I never get to see her. I adore her.

I can't say I wasn't warned. They all told me how Elway’s is the old people pick up joint and I guess the scene is red hot on Thursday nights. OH MY GOD! What an understatement that was. Ok, so the bar was packed with Denver's "sub elite." I always get a laugh when someone tells me "so in so" is part of "Denver elite." Isn't Denver elite kind of oxymoronish. It's DENVER, PEOPLE. Ok, back to Elway’s. So, I walked in with two very attractive women. I looked around and noticed that there was a whole bunch of old men checking them out... creepy! The scene was so fucking fake. It just wasn't me. I kind of want to take Julie there so we can sit around and have a good laugh but, the place actually made me feel ill. I wanted to barf on my shoes or something.

P.S. On the way in I noticed that two of the cars parked in valet had "W" (the president) bumper stickers. I think that’s when the sickening feeling started.

Bailey, Blue is the new red & Troy



1. I had the pleasure of "Bailey Sitting" for 11 days while his parents were in South Africa. I miss him.

2. HELLO DEMOCRATS! I am so fucking happy about the democratic victory. I have actually been in a better, more optimistic mood in the last week. Riddle me this batman... George was shocked about his party's upset, right? Every week on CNN they report on the presidents approval rating. It has been a very low number for quite sometime. Perhaps the white house needs cable TV?!? That way these crazy elections, when the American people essentially say you suck and vote your party out of offices, won't blind side you. YES, the white house needs cable TV.

3. Apparently, Troy has moved here. This was attempted before but, upon his return to San Francisco he realized he belonged there and not here.

Hard Drive Hell



All I wanted to do was watch last weeks episode of Grey's Anatomy. I went to restart my Dell Dimension 8400 and it just would not boot up to windows. What the fuck man, I thought. So, I called Dell Support which apparently is located in Hyderabad, India. Talking to the Dell tech heads in India is quite a miserable ordeal. I had an incredibly hard time understanding what they were trying to tell me (some techs were better or worse than others.) After discussing my problem with others I determined, or they determined, that my hard drive was kaput. I am proud to report that, after many threats of throwing the dell of the balcony and running off to the apple store, I have fixed my computer.

FINE!

I don't mind that Ted Haggard will most likely not vote in favor of referendum I here in Colorado, but I sure hope he doesn’t mind when I vote NO when the referendum for equal treatment of hypocritical-right-wing-religious-nut-job-republicans-who-buy-crystal-meth-and- hire- male- prostitutes-all-while-maintaining-a-marriage-and-raising-three-children comes around. Sorry Ted, I guess I am just closed minded.
