Friday Night
This past Friday was the Second Annual "Girlie Show". It was a showcase set up last year to highlight local female artists and give them an inclusive venue to display and sell their art.
This year it took place at the old Farmer's Market downtown. It was an incredible night. There were so many people there...it was like being in an actual city...something I kept saying to Joe while we were there.
I bumped into a few co-workers, a few old friends...and as always happens in a city as small as OKC, a few people I didn't want to see. For example, I saw Blake. Blake was a guy two years behind me in high school who took something I told him in confidence and used it against me...by outing me to the entire school my Junior year. Because he was a big old flaming fag himself, I guess he hoped it would deflect attention away from himself...it didn't.
I still wasn't happy to see him...nearly 11 years after the incident. I tend to hold grudges.
We also bumped into my brother and his boyfriend Travis. That was a really nice surprise, as they've heard a lot about Joe, and actually got to meet him.
But all in all, it was a really fun time. I bought a photo from Joe's friend Ashley, and then when we met her and her girlfriend for drinks on Saturday I told her I would buy as many others like it as she had.
It's a small 5x7 matted and framed of an old chapel in New Mexico. I love it and have decided that more b&w old church photos are just what I want to use to finish decorating my bedroom.
Well...I'm off to watch last night's Desperate Housewives. The DVR has made me lazy...I never watch shows on time anymore...lol

I love photography!
I don't like this Blake person. Pox on him!
Is the Girlie Show like that tour Madonna did in the early 90's that wasn't allowed in the US because it was essentially a stripper show? ...what is this Girlie Show? Inquiring minds want to know!
Told you you'd like the DVR : )
Congrats on your new nephew.
