Case of the Mondays

And another weekend slips from imagination into memory. Fairly low-key...Chris and I went to a dinner party friday night hosted by my friend Jeremy and his euphemism Dale. Indulgent food, and fun people to chat away with for an evening. Saturday we went to his company picnic, at the home of a coworker of his. The place is called the Agler House...formerly a stop on the Underground Railroad. Very cool place, with more history within its walls than half of the city combined. Saturday we were cajoled into going to the big Homo block party...one thing I like about Chris is that he eschews crowded scenes about as much as I do. But it was good to see a few friends, and enjoy the Fabulous Johnson Bros in concert...their lead singer Aaron is so very easy on the eyes. The talent on hand for the stage shows was apparently all brought by them, as the quality of the acts went on a steady decline from there...the rain didn't send people home, but one memorably miserable act caused half of the attendees to run for the hills covering their ears, us included. At least it was free.
Sunday was again low key...eating and napping were big events. Nice. We went to a going away party in the evening for Paul, who I dated back in the late 90s. I was relieved that Chris wasn't hung up about going - acutally he was the one who remembered it last night. It was a nice little gathering, we just stopped in briefly for a drink and to say hello/goodbye to Paul and his husband. Paul said he still owed me from our parting of the ways...not sure how he intends to make good on that. Shrug.
