Mexican

I met with the trannies during the 420 celebration at this awful awful mexican restaurant. Food was hella bland and so not the business. Presentation was good but that's all there is. The only thing that I actually like was the seviche.




Corn

My roommate went on a two week vacation spree so I got the house for myself for an ample amount of time. ;)

Decided to use the kitchen this time since i haven't really cooked at home for quite sometime. Been busy doing all my kitchen shenanigans at the tranny shack.

I went to safeway to grab some much need ingredients. I was thinking of grilled asparagus, steak and wild rice. i end up making pork chops, corn-spinach soup and steam white rice.

Chop

What a crazy week I had!

Where to start...

hmm...

Job: Our manager stormed off. She went all diva, pick her tote bag, hand her keys to the COO and gave up. There goes my Sunday and Monday offs. She's not that fun to work with but for some reason we do get along. :)

Life: Not as complicated as last week.

Friends: Jerold and I met at Marlena's to watch the dragshow. We had so much fun. it was actually way better than last weeks performances. We left the club around 11:30 and head towards Power House. Can I say, the club was freaking hot. literally!!! I sweat my ass off. I bump to daniel who I haven't seen for quite a while.

Monday

I was off last Monday and so was Marlon so we decided meet at Molly Stones to grab the stuff for our lunch.

Mar cooked stir fry veggies while moi made salsa, grilled asparagus and we bought rosemary roasted chicken. It was delish specially the grilled asparagus. After lunch we head towards the park and had those fabulous baby bottles of pinot gris which we paired with our home-made salsa and lemon flavored chips. After basking under the sun, we got bored and head towards back Castro. We stopped by Cafe Flore' for some much need sagria, fries and cheese cake. (fatties)


We end up going to Toad Hall after we left the cafe for happy hour (I know we are total drunks) They were having two for one drink special. It was around 6 or 7pm when they had Rupaul's Dragged Race on one of the tv screen. So there I was minding my own business watching the show when this two gay boys came up to our table asking if we were Filipinos. I said that i was but mar proudly correct him that he was Navajo. The two gay boys got all excited about Mar being a native since they said they are native aswell. They were having fun talking about the shenanigans about native people which I didn't mind at all when one of the guys look at me and started bad mouthing me, saying that I'm not a Pacific Islander that I am an asian. He went on and on about how Filipinos keep telling people that they are pacific islander. Uhm.. first of all, i didn't say that I am pacific islander. I finally have to tell him to stop because he was making a scene and people started looking at us. I was starting to get mortified when the bartender and the bouncer came up to us and told the guy that they have to leave since he was making a fool f himself. I hate being confrontational and attracting unnecessary attention. 















Brunch


The very next day after a night of shenanigans, I met with the trannies at Cafe' Flore for brunch. I woke up late so by the time i got there they were almost finish with their food. I bought us a pitcher of mimosas. We talk about the craziness that happened the night before. Well mostly, I was the target of their never ending questions. Apparently, talking to people makes someone a tramp now. 





Anywho, after finishing our second pitcher of mimosas we parted ways with Brandoncakes since he has to work at 12nn and Jerold being a lazy tranny head towards the apartment to go back to sleep. Moi and Mar on the other hand went to Cafe Luna to grab something to eat (well i did) We got there and the place is pack but we manage to grab a table under the sun which was quite nice. I got me some poached eggs, salad and ham while Mar ordered a bottle of champagne and the waiter gave us 3 juices to mis it with. Long story short, by 1pm we kinda feeling buzzed.






We left Luna and head over at Dolores Park to catch more sun. Stopped by 7/11 and grab for bottles of baby sauvignon blanc. Got to the park, listen to show tunes while sipping wine. We left the said park by 2:30 coz I have to work around 3:30.

I left Marlon at Q bar since he wants to continue drinking and head towards work kinda buzzed. 


All in all my Sunday was pretty fun. Can't wait to do it all over again this coming sunday. :)

Marlena's

Me and my co-workers stop by at this cute bar every once in a while. The place is tiny but there have a pool table at the back of the bar and a small smoking area aswell. Drinks are quite cheap and reasonable and every Saturday they have this drag show which is really entertaining. Me, Jerold and Brandon stop by last Saturday before we head to PowerHouse Club.

After dinner we went up the rooftop to smoke and i also made some kick-ass Cosmopolitans.

We suppose to meet his ex bf's cousin somewhere in the Castro but we got so relax we just decided to stay. or I decided to stay and not go out and Fran got lazy and end up not going either.

So there we where passed out when around 3:30am he receive a phone call from his friend Ian asking If he could have his spare keys since he locked himself out of his apartment. lol!

Dolores

Another week has come and gone...

Woke up around 9am this morning which is quite an accomplishment to have brunch with Jerold and Brandon. OMG! I kinda got buzzed from their bottomless mimosas.


We head across Safeway after brunch to grad stuff for the margarita and adobo and potato salad We got to the tranny shack around 12nn and I started to marinate the meat while Marlon was mixing the cocktail.



Around 1:30 we decided to head out to dolores park to catch some much need sun. The place was packed when we got there. Kinda like the gay beach without the water. We also had some delicious "special" cookie which btw got as hella wasted...

Cucumber

Quite an intense day.



I had grilled cheese and tomato basil soup early today but i didn't mange to take a photo. I however had tuna salad yesterday on tarragon vinaigrette.


Went to work around 3:30. the place was not that busy hence I got really pissed with all the stuff lying around things were not suppose to be. I got fed up and finally talk to a manager and told her that I'm getting sick and tired of fixing and cleaning up peoples mess. I for one would not let anyone walk down on me. (i totally sounded like a strong black woman for a second) lmao!

Arlequin

Gorgeous day!

Woke up today and the sun was beaming. Decided to walk on hayes valley and be at work early. i stop by the flower shop and grab some yellow tulips and hit the stores on hayes. End up to this very hip and urbanize clothing store and bagged me a nice mod like shirt. i will show it tomorrow.

Anywho, It was still way too early to go to work so I stop by Arlequin and had a glass of wine. They have this back patio where they plant some wild flowers which are in full bloom.
