Living just enough, just enough for the city

Citizens of New York, bar your doors and hide your boy chillins. My mom and her rogue band of peri-menopausal sisters arrive in your fair city today. Be alert. Well, you probably don't really need to hide your boy child. However, if you see four women, possibly in track suits, all talking at the same time or singing selections from Mamma Mia, you might want to cross the street. They have an appetite for some black market Birken bags and I would not wanna be the one who impedes the sating.

Too gay? Is that even possible?

Too gay? Nah, definately not possible. One can never gay overload ... you simply become even more fabulous!

And ohhh ... my.... Brad .... I loved Mumma Mia the musical as well. I took my teenage daughter to see it here in Sydney when it was on - she joked that she was the token straight in the audience for that night.

Australia and Abba have always had this weird love affair going on. Bjorn Again the highly successful Abba cover band that tours the world comes from Oz. And need I even mention movies like Priscilla, Queen of the Desert and Muriels Wedding?

Your Mother sounds like a hoot, Mikey. I wanna go shopping with her ...

I loved Mamma Mia, too. Does that make me less straight? ;)

I once slept with a guy who was the head of an Abba fan club... true story.

Michael said...

She is a hoot, B. She called about an hour ago from a limo and said she needed my credit card number because she'd already spent all she brought.

freakgirl, sleeping with all those women didn't make me less gay.

Andrew, once?

The Other Andrew said...

...or twice.

Just how many velour leisure suits does one woman need? I can't wait to see your next card statement...

Michael said...

I can't wait to see your next card statement...

You and me both, kid. Oh crap. I hope they don't sell those Hummel figurines there.

The Other Andrew said...

Hah! I heart Hummel - it makes such a satisfying tinkle when it hits the floor. Where does she stand on Lladro?

Michael said...

Well, I BOUGHT my mother Lladro while I was vacationing in Spain.

Outgay that.

The Other Andrew said...

One of my earliest jobs was working in a department store, and yes I sold Lladro at one point. That shit is FRAGILE... enough said?

Michael said...

Tinkling?

The Other Andrew said...

Yup, the is a particular feeling I think of as the 'Lladro Moment', when you snap a little paper thin flower off an ornament that sells for like $2,000.00

It's kind of a 'special' moment.
