Did anyone notice if Sixpence was in there dancing???

Happy Pride!

MOOD BOARD

 

Could it have been another glorious weekend? Hell yes! Time away on another get-away, glorious weather, good friends, art, libations and good food. But all good things come to an end as we face the dreaded thing...called...going back to work! Needless to say...as the gay anthem goes, We Will Survive! And made just a tad easier as it is the gay Christmas time!!!!! Pride Month!

Let us all have a fabulously gay month!!!

AWAY AGAIN...

Off to Balitmere....

 Taking in some culture at the Baltimore Museum of Art and din-din.

 I'll return tomorrow or Monday kids!

CATEGORY IS.....

 ES TITTIES IN THE CITY GLAM

Salina Es Titties!

The Es Titties has got it girls!!!! 

So proud of friend and drag sister who is looking better than ever and is back on competing in the All-Stars of RuPaul's Drag Race. I had the feeling Salina got on All  Stars but she had to keep mum till the official reveal. I wish this bitch luck...but just seeing her antics and comic relief is enough. One person I know who has no off button, and if I may be as bold is also a hottie out of drag. His work outs are showing results! Go Girl!

REMEMBERING ANNE MARIE

It has been five years already since we, I, and the blogging community loss a swell person. Not much time goes by that I don't recall her, think of her, or when I hear someone say Fuck yeah, or any multitude of fucks in a sentence that I don't think about Anne Marie. She would be beyond massive heart attack if she were here now to see the current climate of the times. I had the pleasure of calling her a good friend, fellow gin guzzler, and loved our four-hour lunches. Many knew her name but may have never got the chance to meet her face to face...but one still was able to feel the spit fire, the warmness and the slap stick, humor sassiness, and feistiness in her spirit. She was an unforgetable force. From blogging community to knitting groups, to pubs, benefits, dance floors and dinner tables she touched many. Today is a little ode of songs in her honor and songs that remind me of her. Now if she were here, she'd say; Stop fucking talking for Christ sake and hit the fucking play button!!!!

Get up and Shake dat ass!!!!!!!!!

And yes, she may strike me dead for spilling some tea, but at one lunch she did indeed admit to the last song as her one and only ABBA song she liked. Or maybe it was just the gin talking. But it suits.

WEEKEND POSTCARDS

 

Yes, back to reality for a two-day work week, how bad can it be? The time away was rainy yes. But contrary to the rainy weekend, I know some might not like the beach in the rain, but not to worry...we pub hopped most days and had a picnic in the indoor patio at the AirBnB. Monday and Tuesday were glorious. The house was on the beach...at night I could smell the ocean and hear the surf from bed. That alone was worth the whole trip. 

The horseshoe crabs snap, seen after the storm and rains the night before, is for Tundra Bunny. I also heard in the early morning one day, a octopus was seen skimming across the sand heading back into the ocean. I wish I'd seen that. 

MEMORIAL DAY

Don't let the current regimen ruin the holiday for those who the day is truly meant to be for. Today we should come together as a nation to honor and remember those who paid the ultimate price to protect country and freedoms.

SEASIDE

 Thank heavens its Friday, and none too soon!! I work a 6 hour day today then will be heading to Rehoboth Beach for five days for a gathering of the clan for the weekend. The seaside is by far my favorite place to be. Sand. Sea. Sin. All packed already, swim cap and parasol included!!!

I'll return sometime next week..sooner or later

AT THE RITZ....

...MEANWHILE....

This hummingboid got good taste!

Sometimes a company and humans can surprise me and not very often. This story was too nice to not share. At the Ritz Carlton Rancho Mirage, an extraordinary moment unfolds when a tiny hummingboid picked an unexpected place to build its little nest-right on a door handle in the main entrance of doors. Rather than move it or knock it down, the Ritz chose a different path; they closed off the entire front set of entrance doors, across the front on the main side of the building and redirected guests into a secondary door on the side, putting the bird and it's two young, safety above the convenience of getting in the building. A great story and it spread fast, capturing attention as a rare example of a luxury brand choosing compassion and respect for nature even at the cost of disrupting daily operations and people bitching about walking the whole way around to use the secondary door. A billion-dollar a year hotel...doing right by a creature small enough to fit in the hand of a baby. I have read stories of other places knocking nest down once built, or even after eggs are in it...but this is nice to read... 

CHUCKLES

 

And back in my high school years, friends could never understand why I and the jocks got along so well.

I'd say, " Hey boys, forget about the match."

BRAVO PRESIDENTE SHEINBAUM

Bravo President Sheinbaum!

Yet another country gets it right, takes care of its own and stops spending billions on war. This is what it looks like when your government cares more about you then serving its financier donors. In the US only progressives want to regulate banks so that loans are less predatory. Yet progressives within the Democrat party seldom do anything they ran on, let alone the Republicans do any good for anyone. Mexico's President Sheinbaum says "We are removing all unpayable debts. The credits were designed as a business for a few." 5 million predatory mortgage loans issued during neoliberal period to be restructured or eliminate.

Heavens forbid our politicians did such a thing here to help the less fortunate in these hard times. It seems if we stay on track we will have no benefits to living in this country soon. Look how the party in charge is gutting the voting rights act and moving or cancelled primaries. Yet people don't seem to see it or even in states where We the People have spoken, that state is totally disregarding what the people want. It's time me thinks to vote and remove 90% of sitting politicians. We should be more than mad as hell.

RESIST, INSIST, PERSIST, ENLIST! 

ORGANIZE!  MOBILIZE!

MOOD BOARD

How can it be Monday again...I would swear the weekend jar must have a leak in it. Meanwhile another great weekend, weather wise, and one spent in the garden, finishing up with some annuals being planted, now being safe from frost, and a lunch and dinner out with different friends. My next-door neighbors moved out this weekend, their house sold within three days. They told me they listed me as a feature as one of the houses selling points, lol!!!!! They were a swell couple and he was hot...a dead ringer for Travis Kelsie. Not sure who bought it yet but I'm hoping for a hot gay bachelor!!! Who is at least 6"5", waist 33" and brings a sausage factory, tanned skin, mischievous looking and happens to be a fitness instructor and hails from South America with a name like Miguel. Too much to ask for? All told not a bad weekend, except for the carnage. Sophie Lucille is still in confinement awaiting judgement.

Hope everyone is having a great Monday so far!

And it is true, a wet weiner does wiggle better.
