I am a thirty something married gay boy living in Sydney, almost on top of the gay scene but not in it!
Why Sometimes blue?, because I love blue, but also I am sometimes blue :)
Do you know the way to San Jose
As you can see from the picture I am in San Jose CA (well OK maybe the song was a giveaway). The heart of Silicon Valley the home of companies such as Adobe who I visited this morning. The hotel we are staying at is right in the heart of downtown, but one of the cool things is the airport is right nearby and the flight path is literally right outside the building.
Ah how I love the dulcet tones of a Burt Bacharach song!
Yesterday we spent our last day in LA travelling up to Long Beach to have a look at the Queen Mary which was totally craptacular. OMG it was dreadful, not the least of which because of the idiotic American tourists.
But a highlight of the day was finally meeting my provider of forbidden pleasures (also known as Hershey Bars) Bryan from My firstimpre55ion which was fantastic although very short. By the time Bryan arrived we were running dangerously late to get back to LA grab our bags and speed off to the airport.
But even short time is good time and it was great to finally meet him!
Every time I go to LA and stay with the boys leaving is so difficult! It's amazing how friendships develop and even though you don't see people very often the friendship just seems to take off from where you last were 15 months later! Much like the girls in Finland, even though it had been five years since I last saw them.
I do love LA a lot, it's a fun place to visit, unwind and of course shop LOL...
The boys think that we are total shopaholics because we also end up shopping like crazy when we are in the US. But although we do tend to do a lot of shopping it's mainly because we don't shop when we are in Australia.
And let's not forget the clothes are far cheaper in the US and the Australian dollar is over 90c USD which makes a pair of $150 Levis in Australia less then $50 in the US.
The video was taken in the Abercrombie and Fitch superstore in The Grove LA, and contrary to what Benjamin Nicholas may think an old 35 year old fart like me can wear A&F without looking totally stupid LOL (well I hope so anyway).
So we are of to San Francisco tomorrow and then we leave late at night on Wednesday night back to Sydney where we will see our puppy dog!

Awww you put our picture up! :D
I have to write my post still...sorry! :(
Glad to see you guys made it up safely to SF!
My apologies for having gotten there late, but despite having only gotten to hang out for a short time, it was worth every second of every minute of it! It was such a treat to finally have gotten to meet you and hang out as you were definitely one of the awesome people who supported me during my rough patches late last year and earlier this year!
So I was definitely ecstatic to have had the opportunity! :D
Anyways, I could go on and on for days about having hung out briefly, but you get the idea! Had soo much fun talking with you and Lee about various things!
Oh and I'll send you a link to the photo album of our pics (if you want hi-res let me know). Oh and I need to continue that convo we had about building out a website for someone (more on that later).
Okay enough! I've gabbed on and on. We'll catch up soon!
You and Lee have a safe flight back to Oz on Wednesday! :D
-Bry
