New York City Rollers

Rebounded from what felt like a full-on summer cold earlier this week to attend a (somewhat lackluster) NLGJA gay pride fundraiser last night at the Chelsea Art Museum. Luckily my pal Marc came along and made it a lot of fun anyway. Afterward, we picked up Michael and headed to the West Village for dinner. En route we stumbled upon a Diesel underwear party outside Universal Gear on Eighth Avenue (hello, boys!) ...

Then it was off to the Waverly Inn, where there were as many paparazzi as there were patrons.

Once seated we had a wonderful dinner (they both had the delicious ravioli special; I had my standby, salmon). Every time someone arrived it looked like a thunderstorm as dozens of flashbulbs went off (even when we walked up!). I guess the photogs decide it's safer to shoot now, ask who it is later. As it would happen, my dream man Dan Abrams (of MSNBC fame) came in while we were there. And a little while later R&B sensation John Legend came in with some blonde on his arm people were saying is a model named Chrissy Teigen.

All in all a perfect "S-a-t-u-r-d-a-y" night for this weekend-working warrior ...
