I spent all of two hours at the Mercury last night, which was just about right given that I had two vaccinations in me and a date tonight. Highlights:
- chats with our esteemed DJs
seelenschwester and JQ. A was there, but not J.
- The latex gang showed up, with Mme. Zoie looking fabulously consistent with the Mad Max theme. Yeah, I know, she's not that queer, but she's super cute and I like her. It also occurred to me, sitting next to her at the old Cool Kids' Table, that her height is close to mine. (It's hard for me to tell because she's usually wearing towering heels when I see her.) This is a huge plus in my opinion. Also: I learned from her that going "gummy" is the way of most if not all latex.
- Yeah, the latex gang meant that
jengalicious's ex showed up, but that meant that Temptress showed up. As ex-girlfriends go, she's pretty great. She's expressed a desire to go to Dore Alley, an (ahem) event in San Francisco's SoMa neighborhood, the same one that hosts the Folsom Street Fair. I share this desire. No, really, I've wanted to go since Zoie told me about it. Temptress and I have more in common than I thought, If You Know What I Mean. Hey, I'm trying to keep it work-safe here.
