I am 53 and an out gay father from BC, Canada. My wife found out I was gay six years ago; much drama ensued but we achieved a reasonably non-adversarial divorce. Woo-hoo! I now try to balance my new sex and social life with family, career and LGBTQ social activism. I am mainly living on my own because my three adult kids are now making their way in the world. I now am an LTR having met my soulmate and am embarking on the most exciting phase of my journey so far!

Dogably Pawfect Saturday
It's another Dogably Pawfect Saturday, created by Sean of Just a Jeep Guy DC. All pictures are from http://dogswithdudes.tumblr.com/ .
It is late Saturday morning and I just arrived home from my drunken caroling adventure in relatively good condition. Over 50 colleagues rented a tour "party" bus after work. Fuelled by much alcohol and food, we raced around town for +8 hours, making frequent caroling stops. It was the most insanely fun time ever.
I thought it was very sweet that young 30ish organizers of the event included stops at the homes of a great many of our retired colleagues. The retirees were thrilled to be serenaded by the motley crew of drunken former colleagues, screaming Christmas carols from their front lawns.
Normally, I never drink at work events as even a couple of drinks will put me under the table and make me feel sick for days afterwards. Given the tumultuous year I've had, I decided to get pissed-drunk at an early stage in the evening.... I needed to let loose.
It was the safest possible environment to do this. My colleagues had never seen me in this condition and so kept a close eye on me so I wouldn't do anything dangerous or end up in jail. I don't regret getting so drunk, but next year, I know I'll have more fun not drinking at all.
I had planned with a colleague to take an inappropriate picture of me to post on the blog. It would have been a picture of me standing at the back of the carolers mooning the camera.
Sadly, it didn't happen. I didn't want to do this during daylight hours as our professional organization frowns upon such behaviour. But as soon as it got dark, the temperatures dropped to -15... too cold to linger outdoors. Darn!
awwwwwwww, such cute doggies!
ReplyDeleteI'll take the guy in the second pix with the sunglasses please; I would like to do VERY naughty things with/to him!
How do they get the dogs' and guys' expressions to match?
ReplyDeleteScary! The third dog almost has a human like attitude!!!

anne marie: thanks for commenting, sweetie!
ReplyDeleteWill: they say that dogs and their owners start to look like each other after a while. I find all these doggies and their men unbelievably cute!
Jon: yes, I see what you mean!
Is that an x-ray at the top of the blog?
ReplyDeleteAnonymous: That's a scanned X-ray of my teeth which I wrote about in "Wisdom." I needed to e-mail the X-ray to the large cancer centre where I had my radiation treatments to see if they feel HBO is necessary.
ReplyDeleteI think the X-ray looks cool. That's my diamond stud earring in the far right of the picture.
Woof woof!
ReplyDeleteI am a pushover for pups!
