Friday night, I played against type and went out to Bulldogs. It wasn’t a bad night; it wasn’t an especially good one either. It just was. I received positive feedback on my changing body and guzzled three drinks from Superstar Bartender Lenny in as many hours (for future reference: a cocktail crafted by Superstar Bartender Lenny drinks equal two Earth drinks). Decidedly buzzed and unwilling to commit to random acts of senseless sex, I went home.

Saturday, XL picked me up from DIC and we had brunch at Youngblood’s R&B Cafe in Midtown. It was my first time. Pretty good food for very reasonable prices. I’m curious how they’ll keep that up. Youngblood’s is looking for a bartender for Thursday and Friday and I took an application although I doubt if I will follow through with that - the spirit’s not speaking to me, man. After brunch, we did some light clothes shopping (gotta get the gear together for our Labor Day party) and some heavy CD shopping (Lazy Dog, Beth Orton, more Bebel Gilberto, Maysa, and Jill Scott, amongst others). The rest of the day was Chill City as we laid on the futon, napping and watching With A Friend Like Harry and The Ghosts of Mars.

Sunday morning, I awoke to find DIC telephonic and Internet capabilities kaput; the Bellsouth technician speculated vandalism. But at any case, I was completely cutoff from others, having no mobile, no home phone, and no Internet. Blah. EJ, Prime, Wood and others went to brunch and to see some film. I elected to stay home and create a preliminary invite for the Labor Day party and wash clothes. By 5:00, I was starting to get cabin fever. At, 8:00, I had to get some air.

How was your weekend?

“Played against type.” *grins*

Worked mostly. My weekend’s tomorrow and Wednesday. Gotta turn in the car for mo’ repairs. Meh.

Lets see - u know I went to brunch, ate too much and inhaled too much eye candy. You also know that I saw XXX, which was packed with action, short on everything else. It should net at least one sequel though. All that hype and we saw no more of Vin than we have already seen. Oh well….

Bantered through out the day with Damien (all men should sound that sexy on the phone) from Bellsouth Repair getting updates on the telecom conundrum. Funny how my business line was working in a matter of hours and the other phones took more than 24 hours.

Ended the day with a productive but frustrating volunteer organization board meeting. I realize that I must meter my vision as the rest of the group is just not ready to expand theirs - this, I don’t like, but I am only one of many.

That’s about it.
