Work That Sickness Girl

I don't want to count my eggs before they hatch, but I am so relieve to have the majority of the illness behind me. It was, as I said previously, just plain not cute.

Despite being under the weather, I did manage to get some shit done. Not as much as I would have liked, but I did muster up some energy to hit the gym and do some painting. Despite being the hardcore social butterfly I am, I choose health over nightclubbing. I missed out on the launches of DJ Paul V.'s "Spunk" at the Echoplex and Cody Bayne's "Duke" at Fubar. Boo. I really wanted to attend, but it's not that cool to show up spreading your germs all over the patrons. Well those kind of germs anyway.

Towards the end of sickness cycle, I was able to accomplish more and more - hence my return to the gym. I was rather weak, but I sucked it up and went. Luckily for everyone at the gym, I wasn't contagious. I was just at the tail end of it - dealing with a running nose and an annoying cough. And yes, I covered my mouth when I coughed.

The gym did help quite a bit. Sweating out all of the toxins can really transform you. And that was my main concern. I reserved the cruising aspect until I was better. And I'm feeling better. Hello cruisers!

This week was the turning point for me as I hit up a few events. It was a true test to see if I was ready. And I was...

I visited The Cavern Club Theater on Wednesday eve for "Dirty Mouths" with Selene Luna, Jackie Beat, Nadya Ginsburg and Alec Mapa. I was laughing quite a bit and coughing much less.

Friday night was all about Courtney HOLE at The Music Box @ The Fonda Great show. Lady Love was a mess as was the crowd. One of my favorite concerts in a long time. I'm very proud of my self for not getting into a fight. Yay for me!

Post-HOLE was TRANZKUNTINENTAL at The Roxy. A tranny/rock fuckfest of epic proportions. I was pleasantly surprised. I'm hoping they get to do it again. I need my fix of Mz. Alanna & Kelly Mantle. And The Roxy was a perfect place for that.

Tonight will be the icing on the cake as I plan on hitting up La Cita for Erotic City as they host the one and only Josie Cotton. Apparently she was at LA Pride last year, but I either missed her or I was too drunk to remember. I won't be letting either one of those happen tonight, because this gay man needs to relieve his "Valley Girl" days. Hello Johnny!
