Love, love, LOve, Love, Love


Why i love him,

Elvis remixed (pencil/pen)    Yesterday, my boi came to visit as he usually does on a friday; he shared half of his meal with me--i mean the boi brought a burrito all the way from 30th ave east side to share wit me on 33 st west side.

    We watched two movies, like rambo 2008 (which was way to graphic for my taste wit the killing and shit..but he kept reassuring me it was just a movie, and not to take it so seriously) and untraceable side by side on the floor, almost spooning;

    He smoked me out, as he usually does on fridays when he has the weed; he even reached out and touched me and said, 'not to worry elvis is here' when i told him how much i had fiend for weed the night before..but this morning i got up to go to work and my boi had set aside a bit of weed for me to have this morning.

    he spends the night with me and always gets up wit me in the morning to talk and hang out before i have to go to work.

    He shares his last cigarettes with me;  

    he wants to be in my company and share with me his thoughts and feelings about most things, people and places;

    he wants to go on adventures with me, even if that is just a trip across the bay bridge to SF.

    He like the idea of being my muse; and dosen't mind if I constantly draw him, or even ask him to pose for me (though right now, he seems mainly comfortable with me just drawing his face--we are working up to more full body poses..)

     we have become more physically affectionate cause now we touch each other a little more and with less and less reservation.

     He thinks of my needs, cause the other day I told him how i was struggling with my cummuter funds for getting to work and back; and he came up wit a BART  ticket that would get me to the end of the month and a bit further.  Told me in fact, when the ticket was offered to him, he snatched it up cause he knew I could use it.

   he enjoys cooking for himself and I; and when I have food in the house he is no stranger to preparing, cooking and serving the food; he is also thoughtful enough to clean up the kitchen.  I have come to my place many-a-day and he had cleaned up the kitchen even though he hadn't made any of the mess.

     He enjoys my friends and engages them socially; the other night he got all the guys to play 5  hands of the bones, daminoes; quite the feat when you consider that neither randy or ryan typically play the bones;

   He is funny; and sweet;

   he is sensual and innocent;

   he is open and honest;

   he is loyal and dependent;

   a true friend; a real buddy.

   such a great boi, my moneys on him to be a great man/lover for some one in the future.

I could go on and on about elvis..

    i definitly needed to say the things that I have said above;

Butt mag cover 

 this little work sort of combines a couple of things on my mind these days;

my shopping cart series, and Butt Magazine..why?

well you could say i find it the men's magazine of choice for the queer male, and i have to admit it is not too bad, esp., when it come to men of color too.  Now don't get me wrong, it is mostly white cats, but they do manage to include some brothers from time to time.

the drawing is a readers self pic submitted to the mag, and i couldn't resist cause of the skateboard; i've a sweet interest in skater punks, esp, the queer ones.

 

 

 

 shopping kart series

    as my birthday month comes to a close, i've really got not much to talk about; i'm hungry as hell, since I've exhusted all funds and really i've only got beans left in my house.  boi, that tuff..

wit regards to my shopping kart theme,

i know i'm not the only one focusing on this subject matter,

oh, boi, there are so many of us on the same wave lenght;

http://www.strayshoppingcart.com/

   

just a bit from the web site about her project; which i think is so kwel;
 
        "Over the last several decades, the stray shopping cart has quietly become an integral part of the urban and suburban landscapes of the industrialized world. To the average person, the stray shopping cart is most often thought of as a signifier of urban blight or as an indicator of a consumer society gone too far. Unfortunately, the acceptance of these oversimplified designations has discouraged any serious examination of the stray shopping cart phenomenon.

Until now, the major obstacle that has prevented people from thinking critically about stray shopping carts has been that we have not had any formalized language to differentiate one shopping cart from another."

 or how about Chris Bruch in a very intersting project; this is the first i have ever heard of this cat..quote

"In Seattle, the master of shopping carts is Cris Bruch, who holds the title even though he's done nothing with them since the 1980s. In his shaggy youth, he liked to push his fantastically overloaded "Roller Roaster" through downtown. When he felt like it, he'd stop to light the coals and roast onions he'd give or barter away."

 oh, yeah,

    i was trying to provide some useful links, see the thing is i generally keep bookmarks, like most folks, then they stack up, cause i never get a chance to get back to them; well in these links, since they are bookmarked at work, yeah, i like check on them all the time..so i kinda recommend these links, in good faith, sort of speak..

Casual in Instanbul   is saying goodbye, and for white to light brown eye candy, that's too bad;

mind you i don't think it is my taste, so much as a reference; since as you may or may not know about me is that I typically only draw the male figure.

and race don't matter at that point, beauty is beauty;

Ahbab News

    the real deal is the three other links,  like Rantings Of Angry Sarcastic Bitchy Queer Arab Americans

    or  كاهنان مثليا الجنس يعقدان قرانهما بأكبر 

                                                   كنيسة في لندن
 

                      I have no idea what the above says;

however

GME's 5th Birthday

May 2003 - May 2008  ; o.k., enough on the arab queer world; though I do wonder about cast and color issues in the queer world of arabs; like does it matter, is there a fetish on darker color or birth place and such..

stuff these sites don't really talk about; in essence these sites really only talk to and for other arabs, and don't really bring other queers of color into the fold..per say.. 

  i heart Clay Cane..      village

 speaking of celebrity cult shit.. i heart crunk and disordly too.. 

    not that any of what either has to say means that much to me, but the pages are bright and colorfull and sometimes funny as hell.

    i really like this guy, who is gay, but that is not the reason i read his blog, wait, yes it is..

so what; Not shady, just fierce is just that.
