So our plans to go to Barrie were postponed for some time in the future. It didn't take us long to come up with other things to fill our weekend though.
Friday we went on a dinner and a movie date. Saw V FOR VENDETTA, which was quite good. Well worth seeing.
Saturday we did a bit of running around during the day. The evening was spent with the hot lesbians. We met up at Tango for drinks. Twenty different drinks between the four of us, good times. Almost had one of everything. Not gonna do that again. I'll pick one or two and stick to them. My tummy was a bit off by the end of the night. I'm pretty sure I tried EVERY drink that came to the table.
Sunday turned out to be a big surprise. Did our usual brunch at The Goat. The only ones there were Howie and Neil as no one else showed up for some reason. It was quite nice though to have some time with just them. We somehow decided that we needed to see each other's homes so we did just that. Showed off our humble abode then headed over to their place. Well five hours or so later it was time to eat so off we went to The Silver Wok. I really had no idea it was that late. Anyway, a very pleasant afternoon. Very easy conversation. They are definitely good guys.
Gordo don't worry, you can never be replaced. I still love you best of all my friends. Besides, where else can I get such good drama? GAYS OF OUR LIVES is all about you.
By the way, had sex twice this weekend... Very hot!

"Strong like bull"
So I don't tend to write people off but I think I have this week. Funny thing that triggered it too. So the back-story is that since my ex, the asshole, left I got back in touch with my ex-wife. The asshole had pretty much cut me off from her, which due to weakness of character on my part I let him do. Reconnecting with her was pretty awesome I thought. I mean you can't really deny the history and really if she was a man she would have been perfect for me and we would still be together. Anyway, I digress. So after that reunion and promises that we are going to stay in touch this time she got herself a boyfriend and that was it. She has no interest in our friendship. Well I had a very hard time with that for a while. I thought she was stronger of character than that. So the trigger you ask... The new boyfriend smokes so she took up the habit again. Odd trigger but I guess it drove home that she might not be as strong of character as I thought. Or maybe I am stronger than I thought I was... Anyway, she has her life and I have mine and I am moving on. So Lynn, I love you, even miss you, will always be here if you need me, but I'm done trying. Have a good life; I do think you deserve it.
That's about all I have for tonight. I am just so fucking tired right now.

Chicken soup for the queer soul
So I am going to start my blog off tonight with a story I heard that I thought was so sweet and which exemplifies the changes that have happened in the last 10 or 20 years. Yesterday Claire went in to meet Meghan at work. Meghan introduced her around to her coworkers as her partner. Today one of Meghan's coworkers, someone 10 or so years older than me, came out to her. You almost have to be my age or older to understand how difficult that is for some people. This person will likely remain in the closet because of the stigma that people even 10 years younger than me likely would not understand. I'm not even going to bother explaining it. Suffices to say it really is so much easier to be "out" now than it was when I was 20.
So COLA was interesting. All about fetishes. Made for a good lively discussion. The common belief I think is that a fetish is a dirty thing but more people have them that realize they do.
So the weekend. May not be going to Barrie. Already have back up plans to go with the girls to Tango for a drink or two. Last time I had martinis my pants came down in public so who knows what might happen. :-)

Today is yesterday's tomorrow's blog
Today was just another typical day at work. I lived through it as I always seem to but really it is becoming a struggle. Three more days to go.
Tomorrow is COLA night so at least I have dinner with Meghan, Claire and Dan, the meeting, and tea afterwards to look forward to. It may be sad but it really helps me get through my day.
Tonight we had Kim over for dinner and it was a very pleasant evening. Dan is such a good cook I think I will keep him forever. I think we are going to try and have Kim over like this every couple weeks.
Last night, or rather this morning, Mr Wolfe stumbled in. As is usually the way, I laid down with him for a de-briefing of his evening's events. It wasn't a long one this time as he quickly drifted off to well needed sleep.
I think That's all I've got.

How much vodka does it take to get me on stage...
Well what can I say, the weekend was a BLAST. We went to Toronto to spend the weekend with Emma. Museums, shopping, drinking. The true city experience. Did the GEHRY Exhibit at the AGO, MILNE as well. Walked past the renovations at The ROM. It's not looking too good. I mean it looks awesome as far as structures go but I have to agree with Emma that they are ruining the original building instead of embellishing it.
Shopping was also a blast. Bloor Street is awesome and has the best ever WINNERS. It might have ruined any other WINNERS for me. Good finds at H&M as well thanks to Em.
Saturday evening was sushi dinner then off to Church Street for drinking. Started at LUB for Candy Apple Martinis that are even better than mine. Just add vodka, don't mind if I do. Then off to Crews. There was a line up so forget that, off to Woodys. Lots of drinks to be had. There was a "Best Legs" contest going on so of course Emma and I had to take a closer look. Somehow I ended up on stage with my pants around my ankles and a drag queen commenting on my underwear. I swear Emma made me do it. That's the story I am sticking to anyway. Anyways, that was followed by more vodka, then THE WEDDING CRASHERS back at Emma's place. Yeah, I fell asleep about 10 minutes into the movie.
Sunday was a sleep in, casual breakfast, BATA Shoe Museum day. All fun, all day. Then we hit the road and came home.
All-in-all, a great weekend. Next weekend; Barrie. I'll try to keep my pants on.

And the old black rum's got a hold on me
Well last night was Mr Wolfe's Positively Negative Lushfest 2006. All I have to say is I am NEVER drinking rum again. One rum and coke and I am feeling it today. Okay, it was mixed by the Captain so it was mighty powerful, and it was followed by another drink at Tir Nan Og later but it did hit me harder than it should have. Now it didn't make me all that drunk, just made me feel like crap today. I will so stick to my vodka.
Mr Wolfe had a good time. As much as I am over-protective I did leave him in Tracy's care and she did get him home in one piece. Physically in one piece anyway. Thank goodness for Tracy because I had actually left him in the Captain's care but he followed Dan, Jenn and I halfway home, with a drink in his hand no less. Still not sure where he ended up, last we saw him was on Queen St.
So this morning was like Grand Central Station around here. Drove Dan to work. Came back home and called in sick. Went back to bed. Phone rang several times. Doorbell rang. There was this beautiful policeman at my door. Wished he was a stripper but unfortunately not. My housemate's work asked him to stop by to see if he could come in to work today (that was a couple of those phone calls this morning). As it turns out we were not the only ones out partying last night, Brett was not in shape to go into work.
We are off to Toronto this evening to spend the weekend with Emma. Not really sure what is in store for me over the next couple days but I am sure it will be memorable.
No more blog till Sunday night at the earliest.
Cheers

Hot Lesbian Triumphs and The Mating Rituals of The Wolfe
I am going to start off tonight's blob by congratulating Claire on the success of her pan sodium channel antibody test which she has been trying to get to work for a while now. Claire, your excitement about it was truly infectious. Gay Dan and I are both proud and excited.
So today was the day that wouldn't end at work. Or so it seemed. It actually did end though. Then it was a quick stop at home then down to The Copper Penny to meet Dan, Meghan and Natasha for dinner. Then off to COLA to discuss ex-partners. More swapping stories than discussing. Did I call it right when I said Natasha was going to have the most stories... I did.
After COLA was the traditional tea at The Goat. A little more discussion. Then home to see Gordo off on his date. Go get 'im Gordo...
That's it for now...
