a week with the boy

So the boy came for a weeklong visit to eat and sleep in a regular bed and see a baseball game and get drunk. he seemed to be able to accomplish all those things.

it was makie's birthday so we had a big mexican dinner for her complete with cake (thanks cheech!)




had lunch with some old friends at the amapola (yummy spanish food!)



had a beer with king richard for his birthday


went for a walk through Hatonosu Valley. had to ride 2 hours out of the city but it was fun! nice to get fresh air into the lungs:

my cameo in an episode of Dinner with the Rich, Famous, and Beautiful

In an odd turn of life, i was invited to dinner with a "rockstar" (i use the term lightly. i don't know his music but my sister calls it gay rock), his entourage, and a group of groupies.

Had Dinner at Robataya in the Pong

Met some interesting dudes. these guys were Apple computer case designers and outdoor wear designers. very nice. blondie, the chick, was a "model"

Nice girl and apparently miss universe.

the girls plus melvin.



now that's FRESH seafood!

here you go!



and we all had to give a big cheer. (i was pretty sloshed at this point and therefore clapping my ass off)

grilled fish. yum!



the master shows the pretty girl how it's done.

i know! you should get even MORE wasted! have another!



celebrity dude tries to lift a beer.

computerboys enjoy their grilled 'shrooms. These guys were pretty funny.



Thanks for picking up the tab! It's been surreal!
