these guys are hott. cuz they funny. by now we all familiar with the judd apatow school of comedy. the humor these guys bring is raunchy, dirty, and most of all, real.

when was the last time u ever laughed so hard that u almost pissed your pants? or u couldn't stop laughing for dayss? that right there is one of the best feelings in the world. giggling. trembling. hyperventilating. smiling. laughing so hard your cheeks start to hurt.

humor is so sexxy in a guy. who doesn't want a man who can cheer u up when u havin' a bad day? i feel so lucky to have a man who does that for me every day. aw. but without getting corny, lemme just tell u. fuck the stresses of every day life. sometimes we gotta laugh it off.

remember when u were a kid and u didn't have shit to worry about? well it's cool if we act like that sometimes as adults. who cares? kids know wassup, they don't give a shit about nothing. job, school, family, bills, fights, drama. none of that shit is in their vocabulary.

so remember. go ape shit once in a while.

Progress notes: Toby

here's the patient. with a lumpia in his mouth. 

the accident happened last Monday afternoon. he got two injections from the vet: a pain med and an antibiotic. here's how Toby's progress went:

Monday evening: He lay down and slept all night. Drugged up. Groggy. Cranky. (sounds like me in the morning). Could barely walk two or three steps with a heavy limp on his right side. then would just lay down again. Aww, he was like a newborn baby, we had to carry him everywhere. When his buddies Snickers and Hershey came over, along with Tita Christal and Tito Mark (lol), he got excited, got up, and wagged his tail while scurrying towards them. When he first saw Christal, he jumped up off his comfortanle spot on the couch to greet her and his buds. A good sign. but he didn't eat or pee or poop. I was still worried.

Tuesday: was able to walk a few steps more. went pee for the first time since he peed on the vet after the accident. had a hint of blood in his urine. vet said this is normall due to his kidney probably being bruised. he then got his appetite back and ate a lot! Yay! He ate like he never ate before. kibble n everything. usually he goes for kibble when hes's desperate, but today he went for it without even begging for human food.

Wednesday: Much more active today. Able to walk a little farther. Still has a little limp on the right side. He does this skipping move so he doesn't put wait on his right hind leg--soo cute. but so kawawa. awww. he still can't jump up on beds and couches. but even better appetite today. eats everything in his bowl. fatass. Im thinking since his body is recovering he needs all the protein n fat he can get.

Thursday: Way more active today. Still unable to jump up, but walking much more and limp is not as obvious. but after our afternoon walk, he got a little tired and couldn't climb up the stairs to my gate. So he sat at the bottom of the stairs, and when I asked him, "You want me to carry you?" He just smiled and wagged his tail like crazy. I took it as a yes. awww. Still like a newborn. Or actually a toddler. that just needs to be carried around sometimes. I did a little bit of physical therapy/rehab on him, massaged his legs and did some gentle stretching while he lay on the bed with me. hehe.

Weekend: Able to run around and play! enough energy for a bath. getting back to his old picky self. waits for us to give him human food. limp less obvious. 

In general, the patient is doing very well.

Plan: Keep administering pain meds and antibiotics. High protein diet. Physical therapy and stretching to affected muscles.

Prognosis: a healed miracle dog.

Toby, my miracle dog.

Toby was hit by a car.

Monday was one of the most horrible days of my life. my baby Toby was hit by a car on that dreaded day. right in front of Adrian's house. by some Korean motherfucker who didn't even bother to stop and see if he was okay.

Look, here he is at about 3 months old , right when we first got him. Adrian gave him to me as my graduation/birthday gift. it was so cute how he gave him to me. I was coming down from frisco and when he picked me up at the airport, I got in the car, and there Toby was. in a little box. weighed about 3 lbs. his breath smelled like corned beef but i didn't care, he was my little puppy, so cute and cuddly. and so sweet. he kissed me for days. awwww, i miss him being a puppy. anyways....

so this is what happened. I was walking Toby & Bentley after work, right across the street from Adrian's. Toby was taking a shit, n next thing you know, I looked down and he was running across the street toward Adrian. I was like "WTF?!?!?" somehow, his leash got unclasped. It might have been my fault. I might have clasped his leash it onto his dog tag, which maybe broke off??? I don't know exactly what the fuck happened. but I can't blame myself anymore. It happened, and I'm so sorry Toby Bear.

Anyways, Toby was running towards Adrian, then he turned around and started chasing cars in the street. Then this silver Camry pulled up and hit him, and didn't even bother to stop. then... I heard the most awful noise: he was screaming and crying frantically in a way that I had never heard him before. so desperate and full of pain. I couldn't see exactly what happened cuz I was on the other side of the car, but Adrian, since he was across the street, saw the whole thing. Immediately, we both ran toward him, picked him up, and he was crying and yelping to no end. He was in so much pain. It broke my heart. Adrian and I were bawling.

It was like a nightmare. or a scene from a movie. My head was spinning. Heart was pounding. I didn't even think of looking at the car's license plate to track that motherfucker down. All Icared about was my baby and getting him to a doctor. god, his whole life flashed before my eyes. I really thought we might lose him. I got all these flashbacks of him when he was a puppy.

We got in the car almost as if it were reflex. without thinking or talking. we just got in. I gingerly carried him in my arms. But he wanted to go to the back of the car, and the backseats were down so he lay in the back of the car flat on his stomach, his right leg up like he was holding it up to prevent pressure on it. Then he lay on his side with his head all sideways--so scary. Me and Adrian got even more freaked out, and as I was freaking out on the phone with Christal and Mark to find out where the Animal Hospital was that we used to go to, we just decided to go to the closest one on our way. And since we were in Echo Park, we went to the Echo Park Animal Hospital on Glendale Blvd. Thank God it was just like two minutes away. but those two minutes were hell. The whole time I was screaming out, "Toby hang in there!"

The doctors and staff were nice. what was weird to me was that they didn't take him in right away, after I had just told them in a frantic tone, "MY DOG JUST GOT HIT BY A CAR!" The receptionist was all calm, like, "Okay hun, fill out this paperwork and we'll be with you shortly." I was like "Uhmmmm, okay..." So we filled out the paperwork. and waited. and waited. for what seemed like eternity. but it was actually about ten minutes. I was holding him gently in my arms as if he were a newborn. He was shivering. probably out of fear. and pain. He didn't bark at the staff. He didn't growl at the other dogs and people in the waiting room. He just lay in my arms, so helpless and afraid. This was not the Toby we all know.

Then the doc called us in, an older white guy, and he examined Toby. took some x-rays. after waiting 30 minutes which seemed longer than the eternity we waited earlier, we finally saw the x-ray results and spoke with the doc. He showed us each x-ray of each body part. All bones intact. All organs undamaged. The only abnormal thing he said was that there was a pocket of gas in his tummy, from air he swallowed during the accident. Also, the doc said that since Toby is still a youngin', and a small guy, he's pretty flexible and that probably was a factor too in how well he handled it. so that was it. he sent Toby home with antibiotic and painkiller injections. and he said Toby would be fine. Whew. Thank you God. Thanks, St. Francis. I was praying like crazy.

Me and Adrian were in total shock. I was prepared to expect horrible news, but this was the total opposite. Adrian swears he thought he saw Toby get completely run over. But that would be impossible right? He wouldn't be here today. Or maybe it was a miracle.

I'll keep y'all posted on how he's doing. Toby Bear, the miracle dog.

here he is playing with Adrian. so cute.

and here the three of us are. aren't we so cute together? awww. i love this pic.

never blend in.

Every once in a while there's a film based on a true story that touches your heart. And MILK is one of 'em. Without giving it away, lemme just tell u that its about a man of great courage. Courage to stand up n defend a group of people who were oppressed and suffering so much hate from the rest of the world. He fought for gay rights and gave people hope. Hope that someday they would be given the same rights as everyone else.

The film takes place in the 70's n is still very relevant today. this will touch your heart and inspire you. oh and by the way fine ass James Franco is in it. he's soo hott.. 

Emile Hirsch was cute in it too. with his fro and glasses. 

and did you know Sean Penn used to be married to Madonna? I did not know this!!! I feel dumb. Sean Penn sooo deserved his Oscar for best actor. go out and see it, it's on DVD now.

let's have some fun, this beat is sick...

Tonight we saw the one n only Lady GaGa. To say that the show was the shit would b an understatement. she is truly an artist. She once said that the way andy warhol was an artist is the way she wants to model herself as a musician, singer, dancer, n exhibitionist. N fo sho-- she an exhibitionist. Her sexy legs were always bare n she never wore anything more than a leotard. But before I get into her performance, lemme tell u bout the atmosphere.

I had never been to the wiltern before. Its pretty old. has most of the original architecture, kinda small. But that was good cuz we had mezzanine seats, but i felt like we were still pretty close to the stage. Adrian was the only straight guy there. literally. It was crawling with tight t shirt wearing, buff,  and flamboyantly loud gay guys. Soo funny... adrian was like "wtf I don't belong here!" but he got me these tix as a valentine's day gift, and he just frontin' he loves lady GaGa too. girls (and guys) everywhere were dressed like her too. blonde wigs everywhere. leotards. bathing suits. stunna shades. gay guys in leotards. holding crystal wands. soo funny. i was like dayum aint they cold? whatev ppl like getting dressed up thats cool.

So Lady GaGa's tour is called the Fame Ball tour, and her album, The Fame, is all about the ups and downs of living the life of the rich and famous.  Since my cousin Je burned the album for me months ago, I been obsessed with it.  You know how there are albums where there are only like 3 or 4 good songs?  Well this ain't one of them.  You can listen to her whole album the whole way through and you will love each one. 

Lady GaGa danced her ass off, and her voice was so strong and fierce.  Her voice reminds me of lots of other artists, such as Christina Aguilera, Amy Winehouse, and Gwen Stefani.  But I think she's so unique in her music. She ain't afraid to be who she is. She did most of her hits.  I felt like it was a rave up in there. glowsticks flying around and gay guys dancing in the aisles.  One gay guy named Freddie kept giving me high fives every five minutes. Adrian was gettin scared cuz he was flirting with him and getting a little too touchy feely. but whatev we were having a good time. some gay guy was like "Look she's like a little tinkerbell!!!"  her outfits were off the chain. she had one outfit made out of bubbles. just bubbles. and her piano matched too. she said she had that piano built with bubbles (I think it was clear acrylic or something) just to match her outfit.  n she plays the piano really well too. look isn't she cute? she was playin piano with her foot up like that.

It just sucked cuz i was sick and had a sore throat and bad cough. but I still had a blast. my favorite part was wen of course she did Just Dance and Poker Face, she tore the house down with those! Everyone was gettin all crazy and cunk!!! But i really loved when she slowed it down a bit and brought out her piano and sang slow versions of some songs, such as Poker face.  She really got to show off her amazing voice, (kinda reminded me of Amy Winehouse), since it was accapella and piano... so good. also what sucked was that my camera is in vegas--left it there months ago. and they wouldn't let adrian bring in his humongous professional camera so we had to resort to pics from his camera phone. oh well. i was able to find a good video of Poker Face the piano version, check it out. you can see her cute bubble dress too haha. 

what was cool too was at the end she faked us out. she left the stage and we were like 

wtf that's it? so then the whole crowd starting chanting over n over "GAGA! GAGA! 

GAGA!" then she came out in another outfit and finished the 

show. after she was really done, we were all surprised to see Perez Hilton come out 

and say some words to Miz GaGa. He said that he's been her # 1 fan since day 1 and 

has always supported her.... and officially named her the new Princess of Pop. Sorry 

Britney, you been replaced! but forreal i totally agree. then he presented her with a 

plaque honoring her single Just Dance that just went triple platinum. then she started 

bawling. And she closed the night and told the crowd, "Thank you!!! I love you and will 

never leave you!"

All in all such a fun night, thanks Babe! the best valentine's gift ever. and if y'all havent heard lady

GaGa's album yet, go out and get it! you won't regret it.
