Shopping safari...

Plastic pineapples from Nate Berkus, (@Target)   They just keep multiplying. Every time I go back, there seem to be more. WTF? What self respecting gay makes a navy plastic pineapple anwyay?

Thankfully, someone knows what little boys (like me) really do want on their birthdays: rich, hot men in speedos....delivering drugs. Not, I repeat, navy plastic pineapples.

.

Meanwhile, on the other side of the store, I noticed that some mischievous little imp had changed the display Nook's profile to "Carpetmuncher's Nook" (which, come to think of it, sounds like a wonderful name for an upscale subdivision, doesn't it?)

and now a word from our sponsors....

Greeting me on the way in...

 

...to the library today.

I was on my way to get a copy of Diana Vreeland's biography.  

I wonder what he was on his way to get?

Burger King Lear

Today's lunchtime entertainment: 
a performance of (what I'm sure had to be) King Lear...his whiskey bottle playing the role of Cordelia.

"Sweet Lorraine"

So I just heard this story on NPR on the way home from work today....and well, next thing I know I'm tearing up like a fool.

Francophilie

So today I found myself in Paris.

Ok, ok...so it was a warehouse up-river from the Salvation Army, but it could have been for all intents and purposes Paris.

There are times, when the light just hits right, and you make yourself believe....that it really does kind of feel like France here.

I mean, you know,  if Paris were like on the surface of the sun.....
with drag queens...and drive thru daiquiris...or something

But still...

les tricolores

les portes (I like to imagine they are magic, and that you could step through into the Louvre....or at least into one of those public urinals in Paris.  Better than Narnia!)

un blackamoor (is it wrong that I kind of want this? don't answer)

des lustres (is it wrong that I want every last one?)

les groceries que I-don't-know-what-I'll do-with -but-bought-since- they-were-on-sale

.

                      I might just brush my teeth with that chestnut paste tomorrow.  What le hell, non?

It's that time of the year....

for sassy, hip poppin' gay skeletons...again.

southern decay

Anywho...here are a few random photos from my brief trip into the center of the sun to the SD
 parade today.

This year, without hurricane!
(but sweet jesus on a cracker it was hot.)

the southern belle's best summer accessories, parasol, bonnet and fan.

Her dildo parasol was a lovely touch.

God bless America
