birthday memories

So the big party of the year for my birthday occured Saturday night at Halo. I had a damned good time and here are some of the drama highlights.

1. Archie's new boyfriend- I feel bad for Archie. He ends up proving the stereotypes correct about gay asian guys... (wait, not that one, or at least not to my knowledge) I am referring to the infatuation that fat, old, white guys have towards Asian boys. So we notice this creepy looking guy at the railing staring at the group of people I am at. He looks like the BTK killer. Then we notice how he is checking out Archie and the second there is a space next to Archie on the couch, he moves in. Archie leans forward, BTK stares him down all the way to his ass. Then he moves in for the kill and starts a conversation. Archie ends up telling him that he has a girlfriend, which in retrospect now that I am sober, I can't believe he believed was true. He bought Archie a beer and Archie almost started drinking it, then i asked "what are you doing??????" He said what? I repled "you don't know where that's been or what he put in it. Just walk around with it, act like you drank it and leave it somewhere." Poor Archie could've been tied up by the guy.

2. Michael Moore- not the filmaker. So sometimes things happen and then you try to forget they ever happened and you assume that there is no reason to ever bring them up and just assume that anyone who knew is on the same page. Such is the case when you give someone your phone number and they never call. You just move on and ignore it ever happened. Michael Moore is such a case for me. I don't really know him that well, but I ran into him when I was downstairs roaming around the bar and told him we were all upstairs. Then at the end of the night he's talking to Brian and Keri andI hear him bring up receiving my number out of the blue. I about spit out my drink and start choking on my screwdriver....Then the whole story comes out. It was a classic comedy moment. It really was.

3. Mr. King- A story comes through the grapevine that Mr. King and his Fredericksberg boyfriend has broken up and that Mr King is back in DC and looking for a roomate. BUt he apparently doesn't want me to know because in Kingland I am apparently in love with him and would want to move in with him in a heartbeat. Hmmmmmm I feel like this is a subject of a b-list comedy. Let's go over the reasons why I'm not in love with Mr. King. 1. He's 40, which puts him just slightly closer to my father's age than mine. I also have an aversion to the number 40, the 30's i could handle, but not 40. 2. I love living alone. I can be messy, I can be neat, I can not make my bed for weeks, I can watch porn all the time, i can trick to my heart's delight. Why would I want to ruin that? 3. If i were interested in starting a relationship with anyone, I wouldn't start by moving in with them as that is too much pressure too quickly. And 4. he's 40. So Mr. King, keep on dreaming, but I plan on pursuing other, younger individuals.

But all in all it was a great birthday, the best I've had so far!
