No Yo! For ME!

I didn't go check out Yo!Majesty last night so there won't be some review of the show on this blog here. That's okay. I was tired. I don't mean to bitchlali but Butchlalis rehearsals take a lot out of me. And I'm all about all work and no play makes me a dull boy but there's no way I was going to leave the house when there was an LA Ink episode on the imitation TiVo. Oh how I wish for that teleport machine or that DNA splitter that will let me create another me--all the help I can get to enable me to do more things and be in more places. I have to admit though I was curious about the feminist driven event on a very heavy pop culture tip happening at the bar we all love to hate but love that it's there.

Man you ever just realize that maybe just maybe you're not an activist?

I am excited about the Latino New Works festival. It's great being a part of it. I think we're on the mainly queer one with Dorian Wood, Plastilina and Ric Montejano. You know Dorian Wood just got a full write-up in the LA Weekly. Check out the article here: http://www.laweekly.com/music/music/dorian-wood-beautiful-losing/17014/ He sounds like a totally cool cat. The Friday program is going to be pretty musical which is great because I've always thought of BdP as being musically grounded even if none of really play any instruments (except for moi) or sings (except for moi again). Yeah I know--how talented, huh? I'm just like my pugs with this constant need for attention--you can practically hear the whimpering in this post. When will this void be filled?

After we did our film presentation at T2T Laura Aguilar comes up to the Munch and I saying how much she liked our video, Juan Diego. She asked me if I remembered her and I'm like OF COURSE I REMEMBER YOU! How do you forget Laura Aguilar? Seriously though she's such a fucking amazing photographer whose work is just untouchable. I am a little scared of her, too, because she shares knowledge so simple and matter-of-factly and in a very Buddha-like kind of way. She was definitely one of the best reasons to get out of bed that day. That and the coconut shrimp at the Abbey. All very pleasant surprises.
