First day of work...
Started my new job at this successful mortgage lender in New York. It was a long, but fun, day. My official job title is “office runner” and they weren’t kidding with the “runner” part. I walked in at 8:45 and got settled in and the older guy who used to be in my position gave me the run down of how things work and what I’d be doing. It was all well and good...

I'm a savant.
Last night at Dan’s, me and three of my straight guy friends ended up watching the latest episode of Jersey Shore. These three claim to hate most reality shows (except for shit like Top Gear — focus anything on cars or boobs and straight boys will drool all over it) but watched it because I had control of the remote.
Because none of them really know anything about the show, I had to...

The Right Stuff.
In a recent episode of Watch What Happens Live on Bravo, Andy Cohen had 80s pop stars Debbie Gibson and Tiffany as his guests. When discussing her back-in-the-day romance with Jonathan Knight from New Kids on the Block, Tiffany said, “he became gay later.” Surprised fans took to the internet claiming that Tiffany had accidentally outed the NKOTB member. Except, you know, she...

Is this what epiphanies on Oprah's show are like?
I just finished watching The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills reunion on Bravo and an admission by Camille got me thinking about a situation in my own life. Andy asked Camille if the reason there’s been this issue between her and Kyle this entire season (in terms of Kyle calling her insecure about Kelsey and his fame) has been because, deep down, Camille is actually insecure about Kelsey...

Why am I watching this?
Lately, I’ve gotten into the habit of watching these terribly dull PBS how-to shows. I think I fell into it because I find it incredibly relaxing. Who can deny the fun of dozing off to Bob Ross painting happy little trees or Ming Tsai cooking up some thai noodles? Exactly. No one!
But today they’re running a telethon asking for contributions to the station. It’s basically a...

Ever wonder what's gonna happen to the Mean Girls...
This quote reminded me of my grandmother:
“Look, the Senior Citizens Center is divided into 3 cliques: The Hip group, the Not So Hip group, and The Broken Hip group. Which group would you wanna be in?!” — Sophia, The Golden Girls
She currently lives with my aunt in what is basically a retirement home. No one on the property is younger than 55 and, if they are, they’re...

She’s had a cough for about a week now and the doctor prescribed her medication. Yet she’s still coughing. And I know I should feel sorry for her, but all I can think is, “Will you stop already? Damn.”

No, then you’ll not be dressed like a bag lady.
I like you Xtina, but what happened to you, girl?

Hey, HRC, as much as I appreciate your diligent...
… if you want me to donate $140 to “renew my membership” for 2011, at least make it worth my while. Offer to have Anderson Cooper stop at my house so we can give each other back rubs. Or something.
I don’t know. This sticker you sent along isn’t gonna cut it.

Preparing for job interviews...
Most people you ask will tell you they have a routine before going on a job interview. Rehearsing possible questions you might be asked by the interviewer, getting a haircut, shining your shoes, etc. Those are all valid and necessary things if you’re hoping to get a job. But the one thing I’m adamant about? Watching episodes of my favorite 80s and 90s sitcoms (and sometimes movies)...
I have like, a job interview for like an actual,...
I’m optimistic about it. Of course, the entire time I’ve been unemployed my skin has been healthy and clear. The day I land an actual interview? Two zits on my forehead. Awesome.
But whatever! Job interview!

"Andrew Asks..." (?)
Andrew asks me a lot of questions as if I’m the sole representative of the gay community, which is so not the case. I mean I’m a major representative, but there are of course others out there that could weigh in on the (sometimes highly offensive) topics he brings up. This week’s edition of “Andrew Asks…” is about the openness of some gay men:

House Party in La Citta.
I got invited to my friend’s apartment in the city last night. I had gone out with my family as an official birthday dinner, so I had missed the 8 o’clock train that the rest of my friends hopped on. I ended up rushing to the station and I made the 9:02 to Penn, which got me there around 10:15. I called Dan, asking him how to get to Chris’ apartment by subway. His directions...

PB?
In an attempt to keep my birthday a topic of discussion on my blog (because it’s all about me, me, me around here!), here’s a comment that Matt left me on Facebook:
In typical Matt fashion, I was left to wonder WTF “PB” meant. Peanut butter? Pretty boy? I asked my friend Amanda what she thought it meant, and she said she figured it was an inside joke. Nope. At least not...

Looking forward to Spring.
I love Spring. I love the weather, the clothes, the food, the holidays, the colors, flowers… I love it all. There’s nothing like wearing light, airy pastels after being weighed down by the dark blues, grays, maroons of a winter wardrobe. Pink seersucker pants, pink/blue gingham shirts, white belts… love.
Uh, yes please! Fuck.
The food? Leeks and asparagus and quiches:

I'm feeling sappy and sentimental.
Buzzy, Amanda and I went to the Cheesecake Factory tonight for dinner. I had a great time and the three of us should do that shit more often. There’s nothing I enjoy more than sitting in a chain restaurant, gossiping about mutual friends, over dinner. I literally feel like I’m one of the Housewives of New Jersey or something. It’s awesome.
My sore throat and runny nose have been...

If I haven't spoken to you since we were in high...
… do not write on my Facebook wall wishing me a happy birthday. It’s insincere.
That said, if we’ve had sex before, I would appreciate an insincere “Happy Birthday.” I’m weird like that. It’s the least you can do.

What you may not know about snowblowers is that they’re fucking heavy. I’ve helped lift furniture and other heavy objects before, but snowblowers are apparently a whole different beast. I already have zero muscle mass and, compounded with the fact that snowblowers are like 700 lbs., it was a mess.
He also didn’t say thank you.

I swear I could be a vegetarian if I didn't love...
It’s truly the only meat that I could never do without. I mean don’t get me wrong, I like beef and pork and whatevs, but chicken and turkey are my jam. I’m making this completely pointless post because I’ve come to realize that I eat salads more often than not, but I can’t eat them without a protein.
This has been a post.

Usually I'm not thrilled about my birthday...
It just reminds me that I’m getting older and, unfortunately, us gays have an extremely short shelf life. We’re like the dairy in this crazy grocery store we call life. I have no idea what I’m talking about.
But while I’m never thrilled about getting older, I do enjoy being the center of attention. I never feel bad about acting entitled on my birthday. I don’t...

I feel like I'm getting sick...
I went bowling with a bunch of people who couldn’t get over the fact that I’m gay. I heard a lot of “jokes” about it, though jokes usually tend to be funny. These comments were just offensive and stupid.
I have a sore throat and a runny nose.
I just used the word “FAG” in my game of DroidWords. It’s like Scrabble by phone. I’m cool with this, as...

And I’m just like, Super Bowl parties are rarely about the game, folks. They’re about eating horribly fatty foods with friends, watching the commercials in between the pesky homeruns and strikes and shit, obvi.

Just took a Unisom.
It was a long day.
Met up with Buzzy for lunch. We had some laughs.
Met up with Alyssa for dinner. We had Salsa Salsa. Delicious Mexican food. We tried to figure out what to do after but this island blows. We just ended up back at her house, sitting on her couch drinking coffee, bashing people we know/kinda know.
I love bashing people.
And now I took a Unisom and I’m hopefully about to...

… with a caption that reads, “I love this man.” Especially when it wasn’t THAT long ago that one of those guys was texting me, and I quote, “I want to top you so bad, David,” when his boyfriend was on vacation. It gives me such confidence in gay relationships, you have no idea.
Also, who even says that? “I want to top you so bad.” Awkward.

Don't Cry for Me, Tumblr.
So, I stole my nephew’s laptop for the night. And I’ll probably have to do that for the next week or so. I called AppleCare to see what they could do for me and, after an hour and a half on the phone with them, we came to the conclusion that there’s something wrong with the harddrive and I’m going to have to mail it in for repair. Womp.
I’m not entirely sure what...

My Macbook Pro, which I got in August after I spilt a cup of coffee on my old Macbook, now won’t boot. And so now I’m computerless until they fix this shit. Argh.
$1,100 later, they should replace that shit with a new one, especially considering it’s basically 6 months old. But now you’ll know why I can’t respond to all the messages telling me how adorable and...
