CHUCKLE

 My new dinnerware arrived!

I think the potter really captured my proclivities.

A DEEP CLEAN

 Ohhhhhh dear....how will I ever be able to look at a Hoover again??? 

No wonder all the houseboys want on cleaning duty around here!

On a side note, the clan used to have a friend in our group we called Hoover, for his suction abilities.

About the video? At a time where the queer aesthetic is marketed and sold off like candy- only the fun, fluffy, sweet bits, peppering tv, film, and commercials, but only the parts that are palatable by a heteronormative audience. After having queer concepts in his scripts rejected time after time, David Wilson, the writer and creator, took Deep Clean, and its main drive to look square into the face of that appropriation, put a stake in the ground, and say "appropriate THIS." The video allowed himself and the film's star, co -creator Harry Clayton Wright, to be completely unrestricted in their output.

MOOD BOARD

 

As you can see, the Mistress is still in bed. LOL!!! I wish! It is beyond me yet why we haven't declared a four-day work week yet???? Mondays should be a metal health day I say! And off limits. The worst things seem to happen on Mondays. Like what you ask? Well, I'm sure they do, work with me here as I'm trying to sell this idea see. On top of that it's yet drizzly and very overcast again. Someone throw me a Bloody Mary, a South American and some inhalation beads, that would be a heavenly day back in bed. Thank heavens it was a low-key weekend, dinner out twice, Mother Days and watching the birds flying to and fro with building materials for nesting. We have one family of robins already. But a no go in the gardening this weekend, to rainy. So there's that.

MOTHERS

No matter the kind, shape or form, our Mother's shape and form us for the life ahead and have a role in how we turn out. Whether we are lucky enough to still have our mothers, or our mothers have passed on, we will always have them with us no matter what. Some of us even have surrogate mothers or mother figures that have had inspiration for others of us. We don't need a special day to tell then we love them but I'm actually happy there is that day to give just a extra special day to give them the thanks they deserve.  I took my mother out for dinner Friday evening, as she bitched and screamed to not go to any special lengths, but I said Ahhhhh pipe down. I then took her shoe shopping yesterday since she said she needed some new shoes... and let her pick out three pairs of shoes since she never goes. She hates shoes shopping. I may have even tried on a pair or two of heels myself! Nice to stay in practice. Here's too all the Mothers today, and to all my readers, who are Mothers, and my usual commenters like, the Dogs Mother, Helen, Savvy, Nations, Agnes, Janie, Dawn, Jennifer, Melanie, Duchess Deedles, Christina and Shirley, I hope you all know how much your appreciated and loved, and such inspirations. Here's to all the Mothers!

Even us wild childs love our Mothers dearly.

Happy Mothers Day!

FROM THE CANDY SHOP

 

When I came across this Italian Delight, it shocked me that yet another man, other than one of South American decent took my breath away. You know me foreign and domestic men are my two favorites. I don't know if he's a man I'd date, but I'm not opposed to a few fun filled nights that is for sure. Andrea Moscon could whisper his Italian sweet nothings in my ear all night. He hails from the Northern part of Italy. Now at 27, he's been a model in the fashion and cosmetics arena, and a soccer player. But these days can also be seen in a huge amount of twitter accounts showing more sides to him, one big side of him....on his one main one here. Who am I to argue with that? I love a teasing man that isn't shy. He is also aging very nicely...looks great with a bit of a mustache and beard too, if you can get pass his other "asset" Remind me to book a trip to Italy.

If morning coffee always looked like this, I might like morning more. Not to mention get me out of bed faster!

BACK TO BLACK

It's hard to believe the talent and phenomenal Amy Winehouse has been gone almost 13 years already. And I'm still as infatuated as I was when she hit the scene. I was so bored with music by time she arrived. Then one day, I hear this sound on the radio, like nothing I'd heard in my own time. I was then even more smitten when I laid eyes on her. I love the rebellious appearance at once. I have no problem saying she even replaced Madonna as my favorite recording artist. She never gave in with her talent or her appearance to the corporate music bullshit, and I'm pretty sure if you didn't love her style, she most likely didn't give flying figs. What amazes me is it took almost 13 years to have a movie made, not including the docu- movie Amy. 

The film will center on the life of the late British singer and songwriter, one of the biggest singers ever to come out of the United Kingdom, and she changed the landscape of pop, jazz and  R&B in one, at the height of her fame, despite releasing only two albums...which for me are heavenly awesome and I can enjoy just those two albums, even more so than the huge catalog I have of Madonna's. The film also centers with the struggles with alcoholism and substance abuse and other personal issues and her tumultuous relationship with Blake Fielder-Civil...  all of which that led to her demise at the age of 27. But it will also focus on Winehouses genius, creativity and honesty which she infused in everything she did. From the bits I've seen, the movie won't be perfect, but the savior of the film and perfect casting will be that of Marisa Abela who appears to be sensational. 

You needn't be a fan to find this an interesting film, even rewarding. And not to mention get another Amy Winehouse injection. But since we're here.

Why not? Hush and hit play sweet cheeks....

PORTRAIT OF A QUEEN

 A past Miss Lonestar State...

The fabulous...Rocky Tacoma!

I've long said, outside New York City and LA, Texas has some of the fiercest drag queens.
