Fun Times Ahead.

So my day to day life is pretty simple, chemist 8 hours a day M-F, gym everyday, shower, supper, some internet and then bed. The weekends I tend to be adventurous and make up for the tightly regimented weekdays.

I have a lot to look forward to as far as weekend get-aways.

This coming weekend Jan 28 I am attending El Gancho in Tampa with some friends. If you have never heard of El Gancho...its a series of dance events held around a pirate festival "Gasperilla" in Tampa...sort of like their Mardi Gras.



After that I am heading to Atlanta on Feb 10th to be a live installation at the Rough Gods-Michael Alago exhibit of his iconic photography. I am going to stay in Atlanta the rest of the weekend to see some friends I have not seen in a while.

Right after Atlanta I fly to New Orleans to work at OZ for Mardi Gras. It's always so damn good going back to New Orleans. I have a lot of people I am excited to see. The permanent staff at Oz is so welcoming. I would definitely recommend that you party there if you are looking for a dance club during Mardi Gras. I found a new gym to workout at while there so I am looking forward to lifting a lot. I only have to work at OZ 4 hours a day so that gives me plenty of time for fitness.

Then I am working another Matinee Event. This time at the Winter Party Music Festival in Miami the first weekend of March. I really enjoy working for Matinee as their parties are basically a piece of moving art....its AMAZING!



And after that I kinda have not planned much....but that will soon change ;-)

Alan F. Bradley Photography

Today I had the pleasure of working with Alan F. Bradley Photography. Alan lives and works in Atlanta GA. Two new friends of mine in LA showed Alan a few pics of me and he was interested in shooting. Timing worked out for both of us and he was able to come up to Raleigh this weekend for a quick impromptu photo shoot. We shot a lot of outdoor stuff in downtown Raleigh as well as several shots inside my home. I will post some of the pics now and more later when I get them.

Matinee La Leche at Cameo

I had the pleasure of working Matinee's Party La Leche at Cameo on Christmas night.

This was my first Matinee event as an employee. It was so damn fun! They brought a truck load of costumes directly from spain and we basically had the entire third floor as dressing room. The theme was white/milk and basically anything goes.

The party was held at a venue called Cameo on South Beach in Miami Christmas night. The place was packed and Javier Medina and DJ Theresa were spinning some amazing beats.

Here is the highlight video and some pics from the event.

Probably the best part of the trip was the music. Its one thing to download DJ sets from soundcloud...but hearing them live is a whole other story. Javier Medina and DJ Theresa are definitely on my top list these days.

I look forward to more Matinee events.

Happy Friday!

Its Friday and I am in a freaking amazing mood!

I am headed to Charlotte tonight to work a 14 year anniversary party for two of my friends Zuni and Jason that have been a shinning example of a gay couple...the theme is CandyLand....I can't wait.

Then Saturday in Raleigh my buddy Amos is throwing a huge Christmas Party....I gotta find something festive to wear.

Then Sunday, my friends Dustin, Eddie, and I are doing a "fight scene" photo shoot...with photographer Curtis Scott Brown.

This is gonna make an eventful and fun weekend.

I started taking animal cuts about a week ago and I am already seeing results. I have never been this lean or cut.

Happy Weekend all!

The Phrase "FML"

I am so tired of young people saying "FML". For those privileged not to know what it means "FML" stands for "fuck my life".

I detest that saying. I hear it all the time used so incorrectly. For me FML must mean something absolutely terrible before I would ever ever ever say that about my life-I take that back I would never utter those words and I never have.

People use it daily for all the wrong reasons like actually having to work an 8 hour workday....come on people...have a little get up and go about yourself.

Alright I am off my soapbox...but that's the biggest turnoff next to smoking a cig I can think of.

Jessica Sutta

So Jessica Sutta has been owning me in the gym as of late. The former pussycat doll has made a name for herself in the club dance scene with her latest single "Show Me". Not only has the song caught the attention and time of several major DJ's but it also went number 1 on the US dance charts. I am posting the lyrics b/c the song is off the hook...but the lyrics are spot on!


Say say what you wanna say say
Tell it to me every day day
But if you don't show me
Words words all they are is words words
Stupid poetry and first first do do you even know me
But first thing that I saw in your eyes
Did you mean, was it all your lies
All your lies, about, about have you ever thought
About how this is supposed to go...yeah
So do you know, do you...ohhh...

[Chorus]
Love is not a gimme gimme,
If you really with me you gotta
Show me, show me
Show me, show me
Tell it to me with your mouth
But when it all comes down
You gotta show me show me
Show me, show me
If you say it feels right say it to me all night
I don't think you understand
Love is not a gimmie gimmie
If you really with me you gotta show me
Show me, show me
Show me love...


Eyes eyes open up your eyes
Don't hide what you got inside inside
If you wanna know me
Hey hey I'm not gonna stay stay
Keep it with you night and day day
No if you don't show me
Everything hidden in your heart
All your feels every single part
About, about have you ever thought

About how this is supposed to go Yeah
So do you know, do you Ohhh...

[Chorus]
Love is not a gimme gimme,
If you really with me you gotta
Show me, show me
Show me, show me
Tell it to me with your mouth
But when it all comes down
You gotta show me show me
Show me, show me
If you say it feels right say it to me all night
I don't think you understand
Love is not a gimmie gimmie
If you really with me you gotta show me
Show me, show me
Show me love...

[Bridge]
Everything you got is everything you need...

Everything you want is inside of me...

[Chorus]
Love is not a gimme gimme,
If you really with me you gotta
Show me, show me
Show me, show me
Tell it to me with your mouth
But when it all comes down
You gotta show me show me
Show me, show me
If you say it feels right say it to me all night
I don't think you understand
Love is not a gimmie gimmie
If you really with me you gotta show me
Show me, show me
Show me love...

Nasty Pig

So Nasty Pig recently upped their game. The new Dominant Jeans look is so damn hot! Polar Polarizer (The visual director and stylist for the brand's campaign and lookbook shoots) has done an amazing job. I recently visited the store and bought a pair of their NP Jean 2102. They fit like a glove. I wore them out this past Saturday and most said I looked like walking sex. They are my new favorite Jeans. Here are some shots from the new Dominant Jeans Campaign.

And then here is me in the store....they have a tradition of taking pics of patrons trying on their clothes.
