Ahhh Tuesday

So the three day weekend at the beach was great. The weather kind of sucked because it was overcast the entire time. At least it did not rain.

The weather was very conducive to teaching our guests how to play pitch, aka eucher. It's a pretty simple card game but very addictive. I played a lot in college and the fraternity house was a hot bed of it and often you'd get tournaments go with guys blowing off classes for the entire day.

We went to tea Saturday when MM and I noticed this MASSIVE man- all muscly and huge. When we went back to the house I was leafing thru H/X and saw his picture in the back- yep, he's a porn star. One Erik Rhodes. All I could think was he's got to be a bottom otherwise he'd kill his co-stars.

The boys are off to Florida for the week with their mom, her bf and father. Down to the Keys. They get back Friday and then I will be taking them out to the beach to spend the weekend with us and my parents. Last year when my parents came down my dad got hit on at tea within 5 minutes of being there. That was both amusing and kind of gross.

My brother the doctor is going to come down after Labor Day with his wife and spawn. Yesterday he was annoying me by not listening to my specific instructions about how to get the ferry over. After the fourth time he got it. For a doctor he can be a little thick sometimes.

My youngest brother then decided it was his turn to pester me. He asked if I wanted to go fishing in the East River WED. I told him as much as I love hanging out with him he knows I hate fishing.

I think I have created a monster with the husband. He is now planning on doing another triathlon. I told cool, all you I will be your race crew. He is looking at a bunch in Jersey down the shore.

We had dinner with our friend MJ last night. She has been back in the States for four weeks now. After she visited us at the beach for Memorial Day she went home only to find out her father has cancer. It is serious too. Apparently is is small cell, stage 4 and has metastized everywhere. I believe she said he has months to live. She needed a break from it all so came down to NYC for the week to work out of her firms office here.

I ate something that did not agree with me at said dinner with MJ. I was up all night in the bathroom. I went into the office anyways because the husband and I were supposed to go to the MoMA with EM and his bride. I told EM at 2:30 sorry but I can't do it. The husband still went. I came home, took a warm bath and then a nap. Definitely not going to hang out with the other gays in the village tonight.
