Gay Pride Week in SF

i never knew there were so many indians in memphis... yes yes, the indians with the dot on their forehead. i rarely talk about the american ones. there were ma ma's every bloody where i turned at the airport coming to sf. funniest thing is, this american dude was on the phone with his son (i hope) and kept asking him to say 'ma ma'. for those not from singapore, ma ma is a word we call indians. it's not exactly derogatory but it's not exactly flattering either. 'can you call mama, can you call mama?!' saying this facing the group of 47 indian men, women and too many children eating what seemed like unpopped popcorn YUK! i couldn't help but snicker trying hard to contain my LOUD laugh...

so it's mid 60s, sunny, somewhat windy in the city... so what are we doing in the hotel room? i don't know... just one of those blah feeling days i suppose. i saw my dad... he shook my hands... yes he shook my phucking hands. WTF?!?!? no hugs no nothing. we were walking on our way from the bart to the hotel with our luggages and he asked if we'd just bought some new bags. HUH!?!?! i don't know if he's confused or was simply trying to confuse us... oh well, long story... bruce and i checked into the pan pacific (on the cross dresser package - we're not even asking so don't ask us) and it's a nice hotel... nice enough... at least the bedspreads have no freakin' flowers on them :) i hate flower print duvets!!! had a nice quick lunch at bruce's favourite sf restaurant, henry's hunan on broadway and sansome, got dad transferred out of the westin over to where we are and we so we're 'resting'. i should be out shopping but i suppose there is always time tomorrow to spend money.

bruce is watching tv. seinfeld. i'm slowly losing him to z-land :) the poor guy... came here against his own will hahahaha. he loves me :D

not much exciting going on as you can tell... i'd go take a nap. maybe i'd gain enough energy for another firm handshake in case dad might like to shake my phucking hands again; must be overly thrilled to see me.
