[Day 3 in a row at the gym. Same weight]

I met Tommy at a place called The Big Easy for a New Orleans style dinner. Frank Terzoli, a former Top Chef contestant, owns the place so I was excited to try his food. We sat down and realized that they don’t have a liquor license yet so we politely told them no thank you and left. It’s my own fault for trying to go to a restaurant without a functioning website. What an idiot. We went approximately 25 feet across the street to none other than Fiesta Cantina: our favorite place for drinks and gawking at hot gay guys!

This is Bonnie, the cutest sweetest lab mix who kept licking my fish eye lens.

This is by far one of my favorite fish eye shots to date!

Tommy had to head home so I flipped a coin and met Tim down in Ocean Beach at Tony’s and then we ended up at Sunshine Company. I like OB, I need to get down here more often.

He was with some friends who I cannot for the life of me remember their names. I am so bad.

This is lovely. Maybe one day when I get published in a magazine I will use this as my “Meet the Contributors” shot.

It was good to hang out with Tim, we did a little shit talking about NA which is always healthy! haha! I think I might have offended his friends a little because I was kinda fired up today. His buddy is a Hawaiian, Eskimo, Asian, part Black dude with a red beard and I just could not wrap my head around that. He was a cool guy and he began giving me a bunch of shit back, too, so I think it was fine. I told them about my new idea for a video blog and they loved it. It’s basically like Man vs. Food…. but it will be Girl vs. _____. Fill in the blanks with whatever alcohol is on the menu for the night. What do you think? I think it will be highly entertaining and self deprecating which is always a blast. I am going to wait and shoot it with the Canon I am ordering

In other news: Today was interesting because I took a call from Christian who I haven’t spoken to in months. Christian was a very good friend of mine for a long time but things got a little ugly with us professionally (he is a content provider) and I chose to stop speaking to him because of the unnecessary drama he was causing me in my life. I am sure he has a different opinion about why we stopped being friends, but nonetheless, we hadn’t spoken in a very long time. He sent me a text a few weeks ago telling me about how my blogging during my trip to Australia and New Zealand has inspired him to see and do more while he was traveling. Christian likes to sit in his hotel room playing World of Warcraft and he likes to go to the gym for hours on end. I’m sorry but if you can do that shit at home, then why bother going on vacation at all? Anyways, in a nutshell he called to tell me that he underappreciated me while I was at Naughty America and he wanted to take me to dinner. (I am going to go ahead and take this as an apology for his erratic and ridiculous behavior towards me earlier this year.)  I told him the only way I would go to dinner with him is if he flies me to Texas (his home state) and takes me to dinner there. That fucker owes it to me. So we shall see if it happens. I do miss him a little bit. And I meant what I said when I was a guest blogger on his blog at the end of 2008. (PLEASE READ AT YOUR OWN RISK! there is a bunch of smut on there with no warning page and stuff you might not want to read about) Our relationship had changed dramatically over the course of 2009 and we were far from BFF status. Maybe now that I don’t work in the industry and have to deal with his unprofessional horseshit on a day to day basis, we can become “friends” and talk about things that do not involve porn. I can think of a few people who might disagree with the decision of letting him back into my life, but hey…things are on my terms now and I don’t have to talk to him if things get ugly again. I’m hoping we can be friends and I can continue to assist him in being less of a douchebag. Hi Christian I know you’re reading this.
