The Josh's posted a great review of Jay Brannan's music (Jay was in the movie Shortbus and sang "Soda Shop" in the movie). Suffice it to say, Jay scraped together some cash and recorded a few singles - and popped them up on iTunes. He also has videos on Youtube for those 4 songs, plus some. Check out two of my faves here, then click over to his MySpace page or iTunes to buy the songs. Or to his Youtube page to check more videos.

Unfortunately, Denver Pride was sort of a bust. While I enjoyed spending time with the BF and our friends, the parade was one of the lamest I've ever seen - Minneapolis was better if you can believe that (and that one was in the rain!).

After Chicago, San Francisco, DC & Minneapolis, Denver is at the bottom of my list. Next year we'll probably go somewhere else. Regardless, here are some photos from the day.

The BF got a motorcycle.



Practical = 40-50 MPG ($11 to fill the tank and go ~250 miles) vs. 24 in his Jetta.

Sexy = well, it's sexy.

Spent the day at Red Rocks - here's one of the best pics from the trip. Click the photo to view the rest.

So, for anyone who's been following the house blog (not linked from here 'cause we're shutting it down), we are out of the house we were building - too many delays (i.e. 5 months and still no foundation). So we worked with our realtor and found a great existing house - 3 years old - that fits our needs perfectly. Since we were already pre-approved, had money in the bank, etc., we expedited closing and locked it all down today.

Not quite as stylish as the one we were building, but hey - it's bigger, better yard, unfinished basement and most importantly - it's already built!

So, for now, we're broke. But we have a house. Moving will be in March sometime.

Here are some shots of the snow. Click any of them to see the full album.

My car is the second from the right. Next to the red truck.
