i'm back baby!
it's been tooooo damn long, i know. after leaving/resigning/gettin the boot from my last job, home of Crazy Adam, the meanest man i've ever met, i have found a new home at a wonderful little company doing pr for designers/decorators/architects/showrooms, and i love it! i am working with 2 great people who really encourage creativity and growth, things that were non-existent in my last job. plus, my job is only 2 blks from my apt...how fucking sweet is that bitches!
last night was my 26th birthday! how old am i getting! it's kuh-razy! i had a lil dinner party at EN Japanese Brasserie with my closest of close (and you know who you are...for those who couldn't make it, you were there in spirit!), then we headed to billy's bakery for some amaaaazing cakes. the boys came back to my place, we had a lil dance party, and then T.A. came over which was fantastic as always.
anyway, the weather is getting colder, and i'm pretty damn content with life right now. good job, good friend, good boyfriend. i'm happy, and i thank all of you who make me so happy. and for those of you who make me unhappy, well, in the words of T when he get's all bitchy: "Go Fuck Yourself"
Some other notable quotes from last night! (thanks T.!)
"Rosie O'Donnell made winter in 1972". -L.S.
"Adam likes to be on the forefront of burgeoning news". -PB (congrats on gettin laid last night by the way!!)
"You need to create a vacuum with your lips". -T.
"Fraggle Rock is the most underrated program to ever debut on television". -L.M.
"Pie rules". -B-Fletch
"I say I'm going to bed, so you'll all leave, but really - my boyfriend is coming over and I'm going to fuck him". -hmmmm.....

i'm in love...
...with madonna's new album that is! so Mr. BML (god bless him!) hooked me up and i have an advanced copy of Madonna's new album, Confessions on a Dancefloor. so, i had heard all of the hype regarding it, and you all know that i'm a huge madonna fan of the material girl, so i was going into hearing the album with nothing but high expectations, and i wasn't let down at all! the songs are great, and they can be played as one continuous track from beginning to end. the album reminds me of her album ray of light mixed with music with a touch of the old stuff like the immaculate collection.
needless to say, i'm ultra impressed with the album, and when you hear it you are going to loooooove it. for a track-by-track review of it, check out towleroad who gives a nice breakdown of the songs.
tomorrow night, PB has a party, but i can't make it because i already made plans with TA to go to the apple store in soho to see a screening and q&a session with sydney pollack who is debuting his new documentary about frank gehry who is my favorite architect. sorry i can't make it PB...actually, after this last set of emails, i'm not sure! bitches!
can't wait! 2 weeks until i go to paris! how excited am i!

4 gays and free boooffet.
my sweet jesus, what a hysterical lunch. so B.Fletch, T, Maxime and I decided to go to lunch today. But instead of meeting to eat just anywhere, I decided, lets have some stupid fun. So we did just that...we went to Ricks, a "gentleman's cabaret and steakhouse" filled with "world famous girls showing off their assests!" does it get any funnier than that? 4 homo's eating lunch in a strip club! there was a delicious all you can eat buffet for only $10 (which include admission), but the way that they get you (as we found out), was that they charge you $7 for a soda. it's actually a "you call it" kind of thing where any drink is $7, including alcohol, but we all opted for soda's as it was only 1:30...if PB was there, I'm sure he would have pounded the drinks steadily.
so the place was basically empty, with the exception of 2 old men, and one big guy in overalls...yes, overalls. the place is supposed to be classy, but it looks like a dress code is not part of their standards. we were all dressed up for work ("i'm a publicist. i wear prada!) the girls dancing looked sooo not into being there, as they gyrated to hootie and the blowfish...hehe...one girl looked like she was a russian sex worker. i mean, her hair was crimped her dead expression just was thrilling. since he has told us that he is 4% straight, i could tell that B.Fletch was poppin some wood...lol. T thought one girl was "cute", so he decided to go up to the stage (which, by the way, we were hardly looking at...I mean, Maxime was even facing the opposite direction!) and give her a tip. He giggled on his way up there and gave her, as B.Fletch pointed out, a perfectly folded origami-like dollar bill. thinking that this was some sort of an american idol competition, he followed up by saying "I hope she wins!". We all do T, we all do....
so my big exciting (though not 100% confirmed) news is that I will be visting ben-ben out in paris (france, not hilton) in 2 weeks! how excited am I! I found a decent/crap hotel that is on the banks of the seine, and only 2 blocks from the louvre, which is so exciting! i've wanted to go to france for a long ass time, and everytime that i've tried to go out and visit benben when he was there, it never worked out. well now that i have a real job with real vacation days, i can get out there and see him before he moved back to cannes to await his bar results (good luck buddy! we're all pulling for you!). anywho, i'm very excited. i don't remember a lick of french, but i'm sure i'll be fine. so excited! if anyone has any recommendations of places to go, or things to do, send me a comment on here! ok bitches, i'm out!

happy halloweiner!
again, the publicist had a wonderful weekend. parties, dinner, boys, boys, boys! friday was the surprise party for PB (aka SB, MB...etc) which was a big hit! Everyone was there except for T (we missed you horribly!), and we had delicious Suck Dick Punch, and decorations, cock-tails, L.J. putting on a strip show and more! It was a hoot! The boys went to Boysroom (how apropos) after the party, but TA and I went home as we were tired and drunk, and he had to get up early. Sorry I couldn't make it to your party Jamie! I'm sad I couldn't make it, I'm sure I was missed...at least I hope so!
saturday i went out with TA to run some errands, bought a book that i really want to read called "A Million Little Things", then met up with L.S. for a birthday dinner for PB and his friends at The Stanton Social, which was delicious! the place is fucking amazing and it got sick reviews in the new Zagat Guide, especially for its decor. Following dindin, went back to JM's to hang out and get ready for the "Little Shop of Whorers" Halloween Party at DaveSlades downtown. I went dressed in my Indiana garb complete with backwards hat, backpack, fraternity paddle and a sticker that said "I'm Straight". what did I go as you may ask? "Adam: Circa 1998"! Ha! I'm hysterical! Saturday was also Mama Cass's bday! Holla! Check out these fun pic.
Sunday was GORGEOUS outside. Went with TA down to the village where he took me out for a fantastic brunch at Barbuto. the food was delish, but of course the company was better! we walked around afterwards, stopped into marc jacobs where I bought these two adorable skull bracelets for myself, and heading down to soho. TA is so sweet, he was making me laugh all day! we even ran into the filming of The Devil Wears Prada and we saw Meryl Streep and Anne Hathaway, which was pretty cool too! Got some Jamba Juice and then headed back home. Great day. Was so tired taht I fell asleep at 9:30pm. Much needed.
Finally, here are some pics of The Sobster from a Halloween party this weekend. Miss you and love you! Have a great Dia De Los Muertos everyone!
the sobster and her man:
"I wanna tell you a secret":
"ok, lets make out!"
"peace bitches!"

another fun weekend.
holla. so the publicist had a great weekend. thursday night, i went out with my boys to gym bar to meet up with Mr. Milnar and his gang of b&t boys, whom i love. they are fun and always know how to have a good time...not unlike my boys, who always know how to have a fun and trash-tastic time. T. and I played a round of pool against this old queen who was annoying. he was like "ok, here are the rules, and don't break them, and don't do this, and you have to ask first before you do that, and i'm a cunt and i'm lonely, and all i do is play pool and carry chalk on my keychain." lovely fellow. T. was making fun of him, like right in front of him, it was brill! he was like "BOOO! Go Home! We want a pitcher, not a belly itcher!" you want a pitcher T? mmm...someone needs to get laaaaaaid! kidding!...anyway, we stayed at GYM for a while, and everyone was there. T, L.S., J., L.M., everyone, well everyone except for PB of course, who was out in Ho-hio revisiting his days of glory at Homo-coming. We missed you P.B. and we're glad to have you back....until the next time you pass out that is...
T.A. met me at GYM which was great, and then we went off to G, which I was very blah about going to because lawd knows I am not the biggest fan of the place, but i go where the gays are, so we treked up to 19th and 7th. i don't know why i say treked, considering it was really only a block a way, but i digress. G was fun, although I really don't recall how long we were there for, as the drinksies from GYM set it fairly quickly, as they always do. they pour them big and strong at GYM...just the way I like em! So I remember that J was at G (enough with the initials dammit!) was a cute boy who I know that I had met at some point sometime, though I couldn't really place where. Anyway, the 2 of them made a cute couple, and J was smiling all night....awww. T.A. and I left by like 10:30 (3.5 hours of drinking on a thursday night can really do a doozy to ya!), and I think the rest of the boys stayed for a while.
friday i stayed in with T.A. and watched the commercial-free world premier of Madonna's new documentary I'm Going To Tell You a Secret", which basically chronicled her last tour, as well as her marriage, her family, her spirituality and her life. As many/most of you know, I am a huge Madonna fan (case in point), and whenever she is performing in town, I love to go. Fortunatly, my friend Jamie's aunt is her Madge-esty's business accountant (or something technical like that), and we get ridic seats. If anyone went to her last tour, she had 2 sections cut out on her stage for like 30 VIP's, myself being one of them, so we were only about 3 feet away from her as she performed, and I reached out my hand and she grabbed it. it was a fucking amazing night. Anyway, point of the story is that I really really loved the documentary. It was directed INCREDIBLY well by Jonas Ackerlund, who was directed some awesome music videos, and it included lots of concert footage, which brought back great memories. it's getting crap reviews, but i loved it, and thats all that matters to me.
Saturday night, T.A. took me to an AMAZING meal at Bottino (thanks again!), and although the weather outside was frightful, his company was so delightful. Honestly, one of the better meals I have had here in NYC, and I have been to a crapload of places. We next went to a party for his friend's bday, where I saw a guy who used to stalk me on gay.com, and who started a fire in the apt. he put his drink down on a little votive candle and walked away, causing some flames and some smoke. good times. no, it wasn't that bad, but he later placed his new cup on another candle mistakenly, fortunatly this one had already been extinguished. party was nice, got to meet T.A.'s friends which was cool. After we went to Jiller and Mama Cass's bday party (we were a fashionable 2 hours late, but between the delicious dinner, the other party and the rain, we were slowed down) at State of Grace on the UES. It was fun, and always good to see my gals. saw Skinny Mel and Erin, who I hadn't seen in what felt like ages. after that, B-Fletch, T.A. and I made our way to OW for a final drink before the bar gets bought by someone else, since it's up for sale.
Sunday T.A. and I went to Le Petite Abeille which was very good, and then we did some shopping for shoes and glasses, both of which he needs, only we came back empty handed....booo. my boys came over for Desperate Housewives, and there ended up being 8 or us in my apt, which was cramped, but fun. always fun to have everyone over, and can't wait until next week!
all in all, great weekend, way too short, but aren't they always? ugh...back to work now i guess....

i'm a ti-li.
blahbiddy blah blah blah. it's thursday. normally i am excited about thursdays, and I guess that today is no exception, but i am just feeling soooo tired. look at this picture. dark circles under my eyes for days! now yes, i have always had these dark circles, and even when i am tan and completly well rested they are there, but still people! crazy!! if anyone wants to get me a fun/insulting/appropriate birthday gift (even though its on December 14, its always good to plan ahead), feel free to get me some Hylexin...i hear its great.
i haven't been getting enough sleep last lately at all, and when i say that i am going to rest up and relax, something like this,a crazy weekend ensues, and i remain tired going into the next week.all this week i have either been up later watching tele, or with my friends or T.A. (who doesn't know what a "shout out" means, but he's foreign, so i'll let it slide. plus i think he is cute, so thats a plus too! there, thats another shout out for you!)maybe/hopefully this weekend will be different and i'll actually get some rest. saturday night T.A. and I are going to Jiller and Mama Cass' birthday blowout which should def be fun, and I'm looking forward to seeing friends and all that jazzy jazz.
work is going well right now, been a long day, only a few hours left, which is always nice, then happy hour at GYM bar (which my friend Hal co-owns) with my boys and Mr. Milnar (not Jewish, though you'd think with that name...it's MILNER dammit!) and his B&T boys...unlike most B&T boys, these ones are hot. Then again so is Mr. Milnar and his bf. Did someone say 3-some? ha! they wish!
not even going to get into LOST today, i'm too tired and the episode was very blah. could have been better, and it was the first time i was ever slightly disappointed with the show, a bit let down. L.S., L.A. and L.J. came over to watch and I spoke to the Sobster afterwards and we were all satisfied by it, but not thrilled. it was the first time that L.A. had see the show...um..rent the DVD's sweetheart. you probably shouldn't start the show after a whole season and 4 episodes. loooove you!!

Adam Daniel Weiss Wins Fall Harvest 2005
- Publicist Settles Down, Finds Happiness-
New York, NY (October 19, 2005) – Adam D. Weiss – publicist, blogger, and friend to many - has a boyfriend, garnering an upset win in the inaugural Fall Harvest competition. The announcement was made this morning in an email at 10:53 a.m. EST, with the statement “Yee-haw.”
Throughout the fall months of September and October, several New York-based individuals have been actively searching web sites, bathroom stalls, and Chelsea bars for attractive and sociable companions in preparation for the cold months of winter. Weiss (aka Spicy Weissy, Gwenevere, Fern) took a late lead in the game by cultivating the beginnings of a relationship with an Australian* and today relishes his unprecedented victory.
“I’m thrilled to win the first-ever Fall Harvest competition,” notes Weiss. “I have to say, logging on to gay.com wasn’t all that hard, but finding a truly great guy…well, that makes this all the better. I’m just happy.”
The victory comes as a boon for the 25 year-old public relations professional as Weiss was previously single for over 5 years. His web site,I'm A Publicist, has chronicled the ups and downs of single life in Chelsea. Despite the victory his peers are still actively participating in Fall Harvest, and while many cheer his win, others are doubtful. [“Ew. I can’t believe he has a boyfriend and I don’t,” laments Chris ‘P.B.’ Frederick.]
His friends wish him nothing but the best. Fall Harvest 2006 competition details will be announced next summer.
*As per the policy of Fall Harvest 2005, the name and identity of the winning crop cannot be released.
About Fall Harvest
Conceived in August 2005 by a group of seven single gay men, Fall Harvest seeks to foster exclusive interpersonal relationships prior to the winter months. Taking off from the historical themes of agricultural farmers reaping the last of their crops for the winter, Fall Harvest is a metaphor for settling down and enjoying the serene aspects of life.

The Publicist Gets A Facial!
no, not that kind, you sick son of a bitch! a spa facial.
it's spaweek here in NYC, and I couldn't be happier. tons of spas in the city offer select services for only $50, which is a sweet deal for most of these places. to take advantage of the offer, i made myself an appointmet at a place called serenity spa at 26th and 6th for their 60-min anti-aging multi-vitamin facial. i don't really need anti-aging, seeing as to how i'm only 25, but the concept of a nice relaxing hour facial for only $50 is quite appealing to me. i figured i'll give this place a shot, even though i had never heard of it before, but i assumed that the spaweek people wouldn't allow some crap spa to join, so what the hell.
first of all, i made the appointment for 7pm, and even though it conflicted with this party for gotham magazine that i was going to go to, it was the only available time that they had. whatev. so they called me at 4:30 and asked me if i could push it back until 8pm. i said no, and that 7pm was ideal for me. they told me that they triple booked the time, and that they were sorry. i told them that i had cancelled other plans to make this appointment, and that i would be very upset if they were to shuffle me around or change the time. i told her i could come in earlier, around 6:15 if need be, but she said i should come in at 6:30.
i leave work, walk down there and got in at like 6:10, was introduced to the receptionist maria, told her i was early, and she was all happy to see me, telling me that it would be just a few minutes. 35 someodd minutes later they called me in and a really nice woman named maya told me to get situated and then started talking to me about facials, and if i use any products. well, i started with the laundry list of kiehls products and clinique for men stuff that i use, and this probably took up about 5 minutes. nothing really big, whatever. so she starts with the facial, which feels fucking amazing, and i was in heaven. i was already tired from a long day, and this facial was just making me so relaxed, it was just what i needed.
about 20-25 minutes go by, and i am in pure bliss. then all of a sudden Maya says "ok, we're done, i'll meet you outside." i was like "um...it's been 25 minutes!" i get dressed and walk out to the maria, and here's what transpired.
a: "why was the facial so short?"
m: "you were in there for an hour. plus, when we say 60-minute facial, its really 50-minutes, we leave 10 minutes for the customer to get undressed and ready"
say what?
a: "first of all, it was only 25 minutes, and i had timed it on my watch. plus, how i was on the phone with my friend marc for about 10 minutes on a call that ended at 6:43. i got undressed, got the facial, got redressed, so how was it now 7:20."
that ain't no hour bitch!
m: "well, mens facials take less time because women have more black heads to clean."
a: "well, the facial didn't include the extraction or anything."
m: "yes it did, when she steamed your face".
a: "um, she didn't even do that".
m: "well, i'm sorry about that, but what do you want me to do adam?"
a: "i want a full one hour facial, maria. i'm not paying you for anything less. you promise a service, i will pay for that service."
m: "well, maybe you should just not pay and leave here."
and so i did just that.

phew...this publicist is tired!
(i'm going to add links and pics later, don't worry!)
wow, what a fun kick-ass weekend. it's a lil blurry, but i'll try and recount them to the best of my abilities. i mean, most of you who read this know what happened because you were probably there, but for those of you who weren'y (T...ahem! damn you and your damn family reunions!)
so thursday night....ok, i'll get back to thursday because i am blanking on what i did, but i do remember that i may or may not have done. oh wait, thursday! thursday i met up with my boys after going to the doctor (to clear up my crap infection under my lip) and had drinks at XES. Everyone but B-Diddy was there because he was away in some foreign land called "Missouri", which sounds like such an exotic place! they have big trucks and big hair there. they ride tractors! saddle me up!
after xes, we high-tailed it to JM's for a night of fun chillaxin. i know that Gabe was there (T's replacement for when he isn't in town), and I remember L.S. and i TOTALLY making him feel uncomfortable in the cab ride. L.S. may have offered to smell a certain body part of Gabe's (and its not at all the one that you are thinking!) we got to the apt and hung out until probably 10:30ish and called it a night. what a sadly early but yet incredibly enjoyable evening.
friday involved dancing and drinking. we went to a party with a bottle of vodka. we left the party with a bottle of vodka. we are not the best party guests. L.M. puked, L.S. and L.A. were making out like bandits on the couch as I lounged 2 inches away, I got a fish named Tuna, and we busted out in our loudest voices with JM's roommates some songs. JM brought out the BEST SURPRISE EVER, and we all love him and thank him graciously for it. Mmmm...sweet rose-scented memories...
saturdizzay was L.J.'s 24th bday. during the day L.S. and L.A. went to Murrays Bagels, the best fucking bagels in the world, the P.B. came over and he and I went around soho attempting to find some clothes for that night, to no avail. L.J's friends were in town (one was cute, one was atrociously loud), and we all went to elmo for dinnah and drinksies. goddamn that was some delicious calimari! back to my apt, and L.S. and I decorated his cakes (one naughty, one nice), then went to L.A.'s digs on 25th. there was drinking, dancing and JM making an appearance with our happy surprise again. mmmm. cellar bar at the BPH was next, and thats when we started to loose P.B. he was tiiiiiired. isn't he always though? met up with L.S. at Heaven, had a gay ol' time dancing with the boys getting all sweaty and naaasty, and continually attempting to slap P.B. awake because he was FALLING ASLEEP WHILE STANDING ON THE DANCE FLOOR. sorry for the caps, but i had to make my point clear.
sunday went to the DigitalLife Expo with Jiller and T.A., who was back from S.F. (YEA! very good to see him). that was boring, but then T.A. and I went down to Soho to the illy Galleria for some latte's and cheesecake lollipops (from davidburke and donatella....and if you haven't been, I highly recommend that place.) walked around soho with them, then went back to my place, and got ready to meet up with Jiller and her fam for her 25th b-day celebre. 19 of us had dinner together, and it was quite good. nice to see her fam (i love them!) and all of my friends who i don't see nearly enough (jam! the aim! Mama Cass!)it was good time.
friday, saturday, sunday...ok, i guess that was my great weekend. how was yours?

yucky weather.
seriously, the weather here in new york blows. its has been raining essentially non-stop for days now, and i hate it. i come in to work sopping wet, even when i use my cute lil umbrella and my cute lil kenneth cole overcoat, but thats no match for the forces of nature as i have found. i am now bringing extra socks to change into when i get to work, because inevitably my toezies get wet! nooooo fun.
i met maggie grace from LOST today. she plays shannon, the cunty blond who slept with her step-brother, the lovely and delicious ian somerhalder.. me loves me some somerhalder. anyway, ms. grace was directly across the street from my office building signing autographs promoting her new movie the fog, which is a remake from the 1950's or so. no chance in hell that i will see that. i told her (like the LOST geek that I am), that LOST anchors my week, and my friends and I get together every Wednesday to watch it. She told me that she and the cast do the same thing. She said that she didn't know if they would still do it this season, but they do, and she loves it. look at me, being an et reporter and getting the scoop. hot!
T.A. is in S.F. for the weekend, but he's coming back on sunday and he and i and Jiller and some other peeps are going (well, i know i want to go, we'll see whether jiller and tom et al end up going) to the DigitalLife Expo?.at the Javitts Center. Theorhetcially I shouldn't go, because I had interviewed with ziff davis., the company behind the show, and they were complete cocksuckers (or cork-soakers, whatever you wanna call them). they never called me back, and they woman who i interviewed with was a cunt, so i TOTALLY told her off in an email saying that she was mean and rude to me, and they even though she was in a position of power as head of the HR dept, she shouldn't disrespect those who were job hunting. i don't really remember her name, but i know that she was still classy enough to pick at her teeth during the entire interview!
its L.J.'s bday this weekend. holla! party for him tomorrow, L.S. and I are making a cake. OK, well L.S. is making the cake, I'm just doing the icing and decorations. the poor boy is hauling in from bklyn with a double layer cake, and I get to ice it. love you boo!

12 October 2005
i'm a little LOST...
ok, let me start off by saying that if you know me, i am a big big big LOST fan. I mean, my weeks are anchored by my Wednesday night viewing of LOST on ABC at 9. I started watching the show on Day 1 with the Sobster (who I miss horriblly. yeah, she's all happy in philly with her fiance, but come back to me! i need you! nyc needs you!) sadly, i know of so few people how watch lost. its just me, L.S., Wendy, L.J., Randall, and Mama Cass. the show won the fucking emmy! if you haven't watched it before, don't start now. yes, i am a huge proponent for the show, but if you start now, you'll be so damn confused. you need to watch season one. buy it, rent it, whatever. you'll thank me later. well, all of that aside, lets just say that i live for the show. first of all there is josh holloway, aka Sawyer, the sexy southern brooding type. he is always sweaty and oily and dirty, which sounds gross, but trust me, its delish!
well, i'm not really going to get totally into tonight's episode, but i was a little puzzled by some things, or as L.S. text'd me "I'm all high and confused." we met more people from the back half of the plane, and got more of hurley's back story. um, it wasn't so exciting if you ask me. now, its not that i wasn't excited by the episode, because the show never ceases to amaze me, but tonight's ep...eh. hurley's backstory (check out "Mr. Clucks" ) could have been more compelling, and what was with the bottle that claire found? if they were the letters from the raft, then why didn't sun read them?
but here's the thing that pisssssed me off more than anything. in the preview from last week, they showed jin speaking in english. L.S., L.J, Wendy and I were like shitting our pants! what a revelation! first we find out that sun can speak english, and now we find out that jin can too! well, when that scene showed up in tonights ep, we find out that it was just part of a dream sequence. hello, my name is adam. i'm disappointed.

i'm going to explode
so my lip is fucking killing me. in case you don't remember why, check out my post from yesterday and maybe that will refresh your memory. anyway, it is killing like a biotch! i took a pic here at work (below), albeit not the best shot, you get the idea. my bottom lip is still swollen, and right under it is the cut in question. ouch. i'm sitting here trying to do work, upset about the whole boss incident earlier and my lip is throbbing like a beast. i think i am going to have to go to the doctor tomorrow after work and figure out what to do about it. its def infected which is just lovely lemme tells ya.
on another note, i'm leaving work today at 3 to go to services for kol nidre (read: yom kippur) at cbst CBST, the gay and lesbian synagogue of new york. i'm taking my gal pal lauren with me. i told her not to worry, and that there would be some straight people there and her response was "since i don't usually spend my day of atonement picking up men, don't worry about the straight to gay ratio for me. i think i'll be ok with a bunch of queens! we can all wash away our sins together." classic lauren.
LOST is on tonight, and I couldn't be more excited! after i go and attempt to be a good jew, you'll find me glued to my tele at 9 to see what happens. i'll give my opinion tomorrow.
AND I FORGOT! a big shout out to Cass for helping me with this blog thing since I'm so new to it. def check out Mama Cass when you have a sec. she's the bestest.

Bono-mania
So I wish that I got to go to one of the U2 concerts when they were here in town this week, but alas, I didn't get any tix. L.M. went, that lucky sonnamabitch! Well, instead we went to the Stellan Holm Gallery where Anton Corbijn was showing a 22 year retrospective on his photo work for U2, and when we arrived there were like 300 people in the street. Well apparently, the boys from the band were in the house. Check out this pic that I snapped on my camera phone on Sunday!
a boy's gotta eat!
had to change lunch plans with T.A....the boss is taking me to the 21 Club for lunch again. how can i say no!
Oh What a Night! (Late December, back in '63.....)
Last night, T. and I got chipotle for dinner. First of all, yum. Second of all, they just opened one 2 blocks from my apartment, so its easy sneezy for me to go over there and grab some grub. Ok, that aside, he came over, hung out and we shot the shit with my new roomie A. (if these initals get confusing....just trying to protect the innocent and the whorish). T. and I are both publicists. Yes, so its an ongoing joke about our jobs and our lives. It's quite comical, I love it.
OK, 11:15ish, I start getting quite tired. I'm starting to get adjusted to the corporate world, having to get to bed early and wake up early. A. wants me to go to the gym in the morning at 6:30. I'm sorry, then only time my tired ass has seen the light of day that early is if I have been up UNTIL then. Well, I crawled into bed, spoke to T.A. for a lil, and blissfully sank away into what I thought would be a deep slumber.
Well, sometime around 4ish, I woke up to find my mouth throbbing in pain. (Backstory: I cut myself shaving about a month ago right under my lip, and I didn nothing to make that scab go away, if you catch my drift. I treat myself like shit sometimes. I had gone to bed with a band-aid on, thinking that any pain would be alleviated with that thin strip of perforated plastic and gauze. Au Contraire!) I got up and looked in the mirror, only to find that my bottom lipped had swollen to 4 times its size. I looked like a member of some Aboriginal tribe!
Ran to the bathroom, assessed the situation, took some advil and iced my lip. After about 20 minutes of being fridgedly cold while trying to surpress the pain, I decided to fall back to sleep again. Then the dreams came.
Ok, so I had 2 very vivid dreams, and I'm really not going to get into much detail about them, just for the sake of...well...I mean, I doubt you really wanna hear. The first was a liiiil bit sexual, and it involved a co-worker, one who I do NOT find attratctive. The second was set at an outdoor concert featuring a lovely duet by Marilyn Manson and Liza Minelli. Someone please tell me how this happened!
Woke up this morn, lip is basically back to normal, though slightly bulbous. Having lunch with T.A., looking forward to that, and now back to a long arduous day of work.
PS- I miss the Range Rover (RR!)

Confessions Of A Madonna Lover
I mean, how damn excited am I about this album? they say that it will be Madonna's comeback album, on par with 'Ray Of Light'. 'ROL' was one of her beeeeeest albums, and if 'Confessions On A Dance Floor' even comes close I'll be happy. If it turns out that it is more like American Life, then we have a problem people.
I'm not saying that that was a bad album, but it surely wasn't her best. I used to love listening to "Hollywood", but as of late I've come to realize that it isn't that great. Oh who am I to complain. I love my Madonna/Madge/Esther/Material Girl, or whatever the hell she is going by now.
I'm hoping that when shes comes back in town for her next tour, Jamers hooks us up with on-stage seats like last time. I'm not even going to get into how great the last show was. Lets just say that we were like 10 feet away from her the entire time. Fucking Awesome!
and now i'm an event planner too!
i have like so many parties to plan, its ridic. i mean, yeah, i am damn good at it. i planned a bday party for 3 friends (you know who you are ladies....mama c!) which was highly successful, even though one specific person decided to pass out so i could call an ambulance...damn you Schlen!
i planned the jamer's bday party last year at Capitale, and that was hot. i mean, i got the hook up for her too. hmm...jamie...we used to be friends, but she still hasn't fucking come to my "new" apartment yet. I'VE BEEN THERE 11 MONTHS! COME OVER ALREADY!
so L.J. wants L.S. and I to plan his bday. i heart L.J. he is great. but really, i've only known him for like 2 months, not even. should i be in charge of planning this shindig for him? i mean, i'll gladly do it, but maybe he shoulda picked someone who knows him better. i mean, i only know like 1 of his other friends. and let me discuss his friend for just one hot second. his friend is sooo cute, and sooo cool, and SOOOO young. i really like him, he's a great kid, but he is just so young. last night he said he wanted to go as romy from "romy and michelle's high school reunion" for halloween. i was like "weren't you like 8 when that movie came out?" he responded with "no, i was 12". touché.
i'm also going to plan a din-din for M.B. the following weekend. this one I can do because M.B. and I run in the same circle and we know each others friends. god, 8 queens trying to meet in one place and sit down for dinner. this should be a hoot!

Day 1...actually Day 11
So today is the beginning of my third week here at work. Yeah, I like it and all, but I don't know if it is what I really my style. Yeah, that sounds incredibly stupid of me to say, because technically I am doing what I want to be doing, and it is a "great learning experience" as everyone has told me but still. I mean, I'm not making as much as I would really like to be making, I'm stuck in a suit all day (in an office with 3 people! why the hell do i need to be wearing a suit??), and there is no music playing. I like thrive on music playing, and its dead silent in here. That alone is killing me!
Whatever, I guess that I can't complain, since I finally have a job, after what seems like an eternal search that I have had since I moved to NYC over 3 years ago. I was telling T. (you'll get to know my friends eventually....you'll love them!) about a week or two before I got this job, that I was just soooo damn disappointed with New York. I hadn't had a really good/fulfilling/consistent job since I moved here. Yes, I was gainfully employed at the Parker Meridien for 14 months, but I HATED IT. 14 months of work, and I only had like 4 Saturdays and 3 Sundays off that entire time! I got paid great money, especially coming straight outta college, but the job was killing me. SOOOOO happy that I am not there anymore.
So now, here I am, working in Corporate America as a publicist for a worldwide company. No longer am I a front office agent, a barista, a waiter, a host, a whore (um....i wasn't a whore....really, i swear...), and host again. I gots me a job ladies! Exciting, I know!
So on a completely different note, I started dating/seeing this really great guy who we'll call "T.A.". Met online (I know, but whatever. If good Jewish girls meet their man on J-Date, its acceptable, but when a gay boy meets another gay boy online, its considered trashy. I love the way the world revolves...) Anyway, we've gone out on like 8 or 9 dates. Yes, 8 or 9 dates. Thats like 2 full long-term relationships in the lesbian world! He's a great guy, and his accent just SLAYS me. I told S. and T. that maybe because I haven't been in a relationship in about 52 years, I feel awkward dating him, because this is such a new feeling. But, I like him, so we'll see. I guess we'll just have to see how this all pans out, right?
Ugh. The problems I have, I swear!
