The Roommate

Kevin moved in Wednesday afternoon. I was a little nervous at first but we went off to a double header of Our Hit Parade and got into our groove. Thursday we bought out Bed Bath & Beyond which was way more fun than shopping normally is. The living situation has been a smashing success so far.

The Blinds Are Up, The Furniture Is Moved, Almost Ready

Kevin is moving in tomorrow so I spent this morning trying to get the apartment ready. Finally, after eight months, the blinds I bought in April are now hung. The small garbage can has now been installed in the cabinet by the refrigerator. And the TV and sofa have been reversed which actually makes the place look bigger. Had a busy afternoon of work and more coming tomorrow. Need to make a Bed, Bath & Beyond run at some point. Looking forward to tomorrow which will conclude with not one, but two Our Hit Parade shows.

On a Roll

The Falcons won their seventh straight game on Sunday. This has only happened one other time in my entire life. I'm trying not to get too cocky and jinx it. :) Kevin came over last night for a business meeting followed by beer and Cheez-Its. Yes, all of that is correct!

Triumphant Baby

On my first date with Kevin we went to see Mercury in Retrograde, the songs of Greg Turner and Selda Sahin. Lorinda Lisitza was one of the performers. She had a cabaret show last night at Urban Stages and I went with Greg. Both the songwriter and lyricist went to grad school with Greg, along with Caroline Murphy and seemingly everyone else he introduces me to. Somehow it was a "small" class. :) We walked down to Pieces after so I could see Kevin. So cute! Greg and I had a blast and eventually he left, but he loses major points for ordering those Southern Comfort shots! I stayed a bit longer and when I left it was raining and no taxis to be had. Kevin walked me to the subway in the rain to show me where it was. A real gentleman.

The Marlo Chronicles, Part 3

Took the LIRR out to see Marlo on Saturday. It was a much better way of doing things. I felt bad asking Gayle to pick me up but she doesn't seem to mind. They are so nice! Marlo continues to grow so fast. Here's the latest video in The Marlo Chronicles.

Caroline Murphy Live! + Puttin' on the Ritz


Had a fabulous date last night. Shared a Hendrick's, saw Caroline Murphy perform at Paddy Reilly's, grabbed a quick sandwich, then danced the night away at The Ritz. Another Lyle sighting but that was just a tiny toxic blip on the radar of a wonderful time (six weeks!). Thank you, Kevin.
