Girthy

Ball Park franks has this commercial out now where this hungry guy is
estolling the virtues of thick weiners. "Gurthee" he says as close to sexy
as a guy like the King of Queens can get. It reminds me of the "does size
matter?" debates that go on in women's and men's magazines everywhere. Yes
I ahve seen the debates in Maxim and Men's Health. Its seems length does
not matter as much as width. Length can make an issue with pressing on
stuff, and it only seems to make a difference with the motion, where with
the girth, you definately know. I definately know, as do my partners.

House Sitting

I am house sitting this weekend for my former bosses. I've been in and out
since Wednesday night. Their cat is diabetic and must be given shots twice
a day. I am splitting my time between my house and theirs. Its kind of
nice to have cable tv and central air. My window unit works pretty well in
the one room its in, but the rest of the house, can get fairly warm. I am
also working on projects around their house; like fine tuning their surround
sound system, getting their cable upgraded, getting their car serviced.
Meanwhile my dogs romp around in the back yard, which is apparently the best
place ever.

That party Thursday night sure lifted my spirits. Although I did eventually
start taking the elevator between floors, I did not feel terribly sick. I
did tire out a bit around 10:00 which was not suprising. I would expect
after about 7 trips up and down the very long flights, it would make most
people winded. I did probably over explain why I was not drinking. But
that is pretty normal for me back during my 1.0 period too. I am a born
explainer and educator. But I am still feeling fondly how well it went.
And how much of a LARGE time I had.

After The Party

The party went better than I had hoped. I kept my chin up, but was worried it may have been a bust. But it went very well. My clothes were a hit. But a personal highlight for me was taking off my shirt and having liquid latex applied to my chest, back and face. After which, I had 3 over sized beads and my pearled cat mask. Very cool. In other news, apparently a tornado went through town, and no one at the party noticed.

White Fabulouso

I had trouble finding a sailor's cap today. Two stores I expected to have them, did not. So I adjusted my plan. Out with sailor, in with non-descript Liegh Bowery style design.

I came up with what I am doing. I bejeweled a mask with faux pearls. I am going to shave my head, and paint on some hair. I'll wear the tight pants and the cute white leather tenners I found yesterday, and my ribbed collarless shirt. I'll probably have several strings of long faux pearls as well. I mean perhaps 5 foot strands.

Prespending

I am house sitting this week for my old boss. I am getting $250 for it. I need to give their cat a shot twice a day. I bought a wireless network for my house with the future proceeds. I figure I'll spend half on this, and put the other half toward my Home Equity loan. I need to get that paid off. All "found money" should go to it, in addition to the regular payment. But I have been so scrimping lately, I had some pent up demand.

I am going to counseling weekly, and I hope to get my spending sprees under control. Meanwhile, I want wireless.

White Glorious White

I confirmed I am on the guest list for the White Party. I hit the thrift shops. I found 3 potential pairs of white pants that fit. With my weight loss, as of late, I am pretty sure the white pants I own would be baggy. And going through what I did to lose those inches, I am not going to be wearing baggy pants. All three happen to be women's. Yes I wear women's pants for some of my fabulous outfits. These all also happen to accentuate my unit. Not a bad thing.

I am definitely wearing a sailor cap. And my resourcefulness comes to the rescue. I was trying to figure out how to fabulous it up. I as thinking glitter, or sequins. Then I noticed the 2 hundred foot rolls of string of pearls Christmas garland I got at close out 2 years ago. Imagine an unbroken strand winding its way up the outer rim.

I am not sure if I'll want to wear my seaman's jumper. I want to bedazzle the black on that too.

Canastabilia

How is that for a word? When I started buying up vintage card decks, I also started picking up "Canasta sets" essentially the same as bridge decks. I have cute score pads, score pad holders, even a card table overlay. When I have my card party and absinthe drinking party I'll be able to showcase them. But the cards were mainly old whitmans. I'd be better off using new cards for the actual games so I do not run the risk of ruining them.

The wagon

I am blaming my weight gain on the alcohol I drank last week. I gained 3 pounds in five days, which was enough for the physical therapists to say had I not lost it, they would have called my Dr about it. What seems to happen is my liver swells against my stomach. I remember being told my liver was in bad shape when I was in the ER last February. I kind of dropped the temperance idea once I started hearing the benefits of red wine etc. But my anecdotal evidence suggests I have nothing to lose by cutting it out. But, if I have a weight relapse again, I will then know it was not the alcohol.

Granted I know, 161.5 pounds was nothing to worry about for my large framed 5'9" body. But the speed of the weight gain over 5 days, suggested it was fluid backing up. For me a sign of something far more serious than retaining water.

I tested negative for hepatitis, so my liver problems are not related to that.

Card Party and Absinthe Night

I am close to having my house ready for a party. I want to start with something small. Maybe 8 people and cards. Two tables of 4. We could play "progressive Canasta". I could also explore exposing them to some of my vintage out of print commercial card games. I have thought about suggesting this event at the Gay Pride center, but a lot of the people that would go, are not people I want as friends. Nice people, but a little dull. Possibly of the shut-in variety. I should talk, as I am practically a hermit at the moment. But I do not shun crowds.

I wanted to do an Absinthe party in April, but my detour through the hospital put that on hold for a while. My friend Marc goes to Spain a lot, and brought back some Absinthe for me, but did not get enough for me. I have the "absente" USA Legal relation to absinthe, and two spoons.
