hot; gay men (vacation entry #8)
i'm still in denver. but i'll save the vacation-entry updates for another time. i'm not in a prolific, journal-entry mood today. maybe that has to do with the heat:
man it's hot! i've really enjoyed being out here for the past few weeks. but this is the thing about colorado they never put in tourist brochures. it's all about mountains and deep powder snow in the winter ads--young ski bunnies with wind-pinked cheeks. in the summer ads, it's all about sun-dappled forest glades, cool streams, the variegated shade of aspen stands. they don't show the heat rising off blacktop or parking lots going soft in the sun, or those time-and-temperature billboards with 90-degree-plus readings. you expect it to be a zillion degrees in arizona, new mexico, or nevada, but not here. ha!
i'm sure that as i type this, there's a tourist getting off a plane right now at denver international airport--coming in from minnesota or some other really pale, upper-midwest state who is pretty pissed off about the heat. or at least was pissed off for a few seconds anway... until s/he caught fire.

switching gears, like many others out there, i've been glued to bravo ever since the debut of Queer Eye ...and also since i got sucked into watching Boy Meets Boy.
i'm now left wondering to myself:
1) is it possible to get the fab five to come help me redesign my bachelorette pad, update my shoe collection and wardrobe, and recommend new products to satisfy the bath-product junkie that i am? (i think i could use some queer eye for the straight girl).
2) is franklin the remaining straight guy on boy meets boy?
well that's about it for now.
