while i’m watching-holy shitballs- The Monster Squad on blu-ray no less…i’m going to do my valentine’s day recap even though really, VD has just begun. unfortunately, i’m pullin’ a double at the ol’ bar so i celebrated yesterday and friday with mikey and friends.

other than the balloon i may or may not have stolen from CVS (i paid for it, i think. i just don’t remember even being there), we decided that we would just go out for dinner and not do presents for VD. although…i did pick up a box of chocolates for mikey from ACKC over on 14th street:

uh, lets not talk about who has eaten most of them.

on friday, mikey invited a bunch of friends over to watch the opening of the olympics and by watching i mean seeing who could talk the loudest and make the wittiest gay comment the quickest. which is why i tend to avoid viewing parties of things i actually do want to watch like awards shows and awards shows.

notice me sitting on the couch straining to hear. alone.

to celebrate the olympics, mikey made a cookie cake with homemade, er, icing that he, uh, artfully formed into a sort of replica of the canadian flag:

surprisingly the whole thing was gobbled up. not surprisingly, it was all we offered to eat.

here are a couple of pictures of our host with some of the louder talkers. a third declined to be photographed since she looked like a scrub.

On saturday, mikey and i finally headed out of the house to the mall. i seriously needed to take the car out somewhere, anywhere, since it’s been sitting in the garage since last friday. i was going to return some new bedding i bought, but we opted to keep it as we couldn’t find anything else that we liked better and we seriously needed a new duvet cover. one, the old one was really really old and two it’s the same color as the walls and i either bought a new one or painted. it was a simple decision really.

later that evening mikey and i went out to dinner at Palette at the nearby Madison Hotel. it was pretty good. there was a dude celebrating VD with his mistress at the table next to us. mikey said that all guys celebrate VD on the 13th with their hos and then on the 14th with their wives.

i tried to get a nice photo of the two of us for the holiday but someone wouldn’t take it seriously:

i’m not saying who…

and then this is him taking it seriously and me getting seriously annoyed:

and we’re back to being obnoxious:
