I forgot to mention that Krave was last week! And you know Broby took pictures:
Krave is Minneapolis’ seasonal swank gay party thrown by Dave Em, our local hunky promoter. And the lovely lady in those pictures is Wanda Wisdom, our local podcast queen.
The rest of Broby’s photos are over on facebook.
This is Harley shortly before I bludgeoned him to death:
Harley is taller than my coffee table. This is a problem because that means his tail is about the height of the large glass of coffee that was right next to my overpriced laptop….
Fail.
Unfortunately, I have plans with Broby to watch Splice, so I don’t have time to slaughter the dog…
Broby and I arrive at Mall of America to find out that the movie theater’s website was wrong and that the movie is at 12:30am and not 11:45pm. We use the extra time to check out Cantina #1, which is the Corona restaurant in Mall of America that randomly turns into a Latin club at night.
I loved it! We listened to bachata, saw beautiful (and no-so-beautiful) girls in spiked heels and flat-ironed hair, and even got a taste of Reggaeton. It was like Azucar came to Minneapolis.
Splice was alright, but I could have lived without the monster-sex scenes. After watching epic movies like Avatar and Sex and the City II, Splice felt like a TV show…with a monster-sex scene...
One of the coolest parts of the night was the view of the mall after the movie at 2am:
The electric bill must be unreal…
The computer wouldn’t turn on this morning so I took it to the store for repair. I find out in 2-3 weeks if I need to kill the bullmastiff. It will be a fun BBQ. I’ll bring the fava beans and a nice chianti.
Tyler and I met at Wilde Roast yesterday after work. Tyler and I must be chatty-cathys because I look down at my watch and it’s somehow two hours later and I am 20 minutes late for picking up Roby at the Mall of America… woops.
I excuse myself, zip across town to the Mall, and beg Roby to forgive me for being on Miami time. Roby forgives me after a few bribes and we drive back to the city for $1 beverage night at Lush Bar.
Wednesday nights start at Lush because it has a video bar and the place is slow enough to have a conversation without screaming. So Roby and I stood and gossiped, watched Toni Braxton’s new botox video, and I had the pleasure of introducing Roby to Brett, one of my favorite people.
Roby and I then skipped over to the Townhouse bar in St. Paul.
Townhouse is a lesbian/drag bar right across from a Wal-Mart that also hosts a $1 beverage night on Wednesdays. I love going to the Townhouse on Wednesdays because the people watching surpasses Wal-Mart. Behold:
Roby wore plaid, and with so many lesbians in the crowd, of course he had a twin!
And, like every week, there was a tragic hot mess that we need to discuss, but the pictures are after the jump because she is NOT WORK APPROPRIATE. Let’s see… Continue reading “Dollar beverage night, hilarity” »
