The New Adventures of Papa and Marlo

Marlo is almost ready to come home to us.  She is eating veggies now, flying all around and exploring the world.  We can't wait!

Wednesday was date night and our monthly Our Hit Parade show.  We had dinner at Room Service Thai first, a place we commonly order from on Delivery.com.  It was awesome.  We took a little break before heading over to Joe's Pub.  The show turned out to be probably the best OHP we've seen together.  There was slush on the sidewalk when we went in but when we came out there was about a foot of snow.  It was a beautiful winter wonderland.  We trudged through the snow to Pieces with our regular gal pal from OPH and had a great night.  This was perhaps the best of many fabulous date nights. Thursday night was our Archer season premiere party.  Gregori and Kristos came, and Greg, and Kevin's friend, Chris, and a few others.  It was nice to share our home again and with mostly all new people. Kevin has been sick the past few days but has been an amazing sport about keeping all our plans.  He's a much better sick person than I am (ie less...

We have become obsessed with getting deliveries so were very happy when our new surround sound system arrived on Wednesday. Kevin immediately started installing, of course. Several hours (and drinks) later, things were pretty much in place. Thursday we went to MySuit to get Kevin fitted for a cool new suit. Then we had dinner at Cafeteria with his friend, Carmine. Later we went to The Showt party at Industry Bar where we ran into Damon. At midnight, the Queen drag show featuring Shequida was a lot of fun. I woke up Friday to find out I was "in a relationship" with Kevin (in the Facebook world). That was a nice surprise. It was also a big day as we rented a zip car and brought Fatty and Emjay (Kevin's five year old cats) to live with us. They settled in nicely and we played all evening after Kevin went to work. Saturday night went to Pieces as usual. Gregori and Kristos eventually made their way there to join us. Sunday we stayed in as it was frigid outside. Kevin ...

I visited Marlo on Long Island on Sunday. She took her first flight on Thursday. In the video below, you can see her fly and make her very first turn.

We have really been enjoying the redecorated apartment since our party.  It's hard to believe it is the same place I lived in for eight months pre-Kevin.  My work space (see left) is so much more organized and efficient now.  Sunday we went to Giovanni's show at Stonewall, then went back there later for Invasion@Stonewall with Porsche, who was fabulous.  She talked a lot about Fire Island and we just booked a trip there for early June.  Anyone who sings Tammy Wynette's "Your Good Girl's Gonna Go Bad" has to be cool, right? Monday night we attended Musical Mondays at Splash and had a blast.  I finally got to meet Chris Green. On the downside, the Falcons were crushed on Saturday night in an embarrassing home playoff loss.  This is not how I thought the season would end.  It's too bad the team put in such a poor effort.  I didn't stay down for long though going to Rock Band Karaoke at Pieces and seeing Kevin.   Damon joined...

We had a great date night on Wednesday with Jake, Allison and Erin. We totally pigged out at Five Napkin Burger than to Pieces. Last night was our housewarming party and it was so much fun. We put so much work into it, especially Kevin. I continue to be blown away by his talent.  It was great to have so many of our friends in our home.  I'm not sure how we fit them all!  I'm looking forward to more parties here in the future.

Got a lot of stuff at Home Depot on Saturday. Of course Kevin started assembling/installing/building/decorating immediately. He is so adorable when in this mode! Well, all the time actually. :) Visited Marlo on Sunday (see the latest video in the previous post) and spent Sunday evening doing more interior design, listening to "Game Change" and then watching the first several episodes of The West Wing. We are going to watch the entire run of 154 episodes and I'm wondering when we will actually finish. Our housewarming party is only two nights away and there is still lots to do but all the major purchases have been completed and we're in the home stretch. The apartment radically changes every day and it has been so much fun. We're gearing up for another blizzard tonight so we may be snowed in tomorrow.
