Mental farts…
Tuesday, September 20, 2005 @ 9:22 am by -DS-Since my boss is not here I will use this time to throw a mental fart!
Yesterday my boss told me that someone from our sister company committed suicide, I was like WTF?!, but then since I never meet the person I didn’t cared much about him/her, but couldn’t wonder how fucked up his life must have been to do something like that. I mean, why kill yourself?, for money?, love?, health problems?, life is too precious to waste it away on something so meaningless like that…, except the health thing…, oh well.
The cage.
I am concerned because for some months, maybe two I cant remember, me and my boyfriend haven’t gone out as much as we used to, all we do now is stay at my house watching TV, playing videogames, an biting ourselves until exestuation comes and then we sleep. We go to the movies and stuff, but is like we are isolated from the world because we don’t socialize –well, who the fuck goes to a movie theater to socialize?-, I don’t mind because I don’t really care on meeting with new people or making new “friends”, but he does, and I am worried that this is going to affect his mental sanity or something like that. I have proposed myself to go out this weekend, but where should we go?, Old San Juan?, we have been there thousands of times, the Disco?, no much fun if we go alone, ummm…, The gay bar by the beach?, yeah, we could, El Yunque?, yeah, I could use some exercise…, hmmm, don’t know where else to go.
The car.
My new car is awesome!, its not saving me the gas I thought it would, but who cares?!, its new!, and shinny and pretty!!…, well actually I care… but according to the manufacturers once the engine “breaks in” at around 3700 miles the savings should start to appear. They recommend that I treat the car like a baby for that period of time so it can have a “good” “break in period”, whatever the fuck that means, sooo, I am gonna wait, either way I am stuck with it for five years anyway. But putting that aside, it’s a good car, feels pretty solid, stable and SAFE to drive.

Come on, don’t worry about me, i’m having a good time doing nothing. The word “slacking” appears several times in my résumé, actually.
If it starts to unbalance my health and well being, I’ll let you know.
In the meantime, keep making me dinner and tending to my every need, while I go around cruising in your new car, slave.
j/k! xoxoxox.

If you “threat”-en your car, youre in for deep trouble. What about “treat”-ing it like a baby? Also, cars are not “braken” in, because they dont have a “brake” in period. They are broken in, ’cause they have a break-in period. Understood mah friend?
threat=amenazar
treat=tratar
brake=freno, frenar
break=romper; break-in period periodo en el que las piuezas del auto van cayendo en su lugar. Luego de este, el auto debe funcionar a su mejor eficiencia…

To be honest there is not much variety of places that are gbtl exclusive where you can simply relax and chill with your boyfriend and/or with a group of friends.
Here are some of my comments on some of the exclusive gbtl places:
I like Atlantic Beach Hotel (the gay bar by the beach) to chill and relax but the only thing is ….it is very expensive (especially the drinks) and they charge an entrance fee ($5) (not a place to go every weekend ($$)). There is Ponce where the place called BackStage is located and they open really really late. Then there is Starz if you like a lot of people cramped on each other, especially in the bar area, although the place is the toned down version of the other disco in Ponce de Leon Ave. The bar in front of Starz, Tia Maria, is like getting inside a chimney and definately you will get second hand smoke cancer there. Then there is Kenny, nice place although they have personnel with nasty attitude in the parking and sometimes in the bar.
I prefer now going out more to places that are not exclusively gbtl for the simple purpose of feeling the full spectrum of people around me.
And…If you and your boyfriend like to go to restaurant and dine out and like really authentic mexican food, try out Puerto Villarta in Pinones (take Ave. los Gobernadores in Isla Verde to go to Pinones; after passing Soleil to your left keep an eye to a mini mall to your right; in that mini mall is Puerto Villarta). The budget is same or little less than Margarita Rest but the quality of food is good. (try for appetizer queso fundido con fajitas; the fajitas are homemade).

Atlantic Beach Hotel now charges!? I went there about a year and a half ago and didn’t pay a single cent to get in :-S But true: the prices aren’t specially low. It’s a one-tall-drink-to-nurture-and-enjoy-for-two-whole-hours kinda place.

When we usually go to Atlantic we just drink one drink, and is ussualy the one that comes “free” with the entrance fee. I know its expensive, but I like the sound of the waves and the shadow of the moon on the ocean
Manny, thanks for the suggestion on the restaurant!!!, I want to try that one!!!, I looooove mexican food!!!, actually, BF and I have gone to every glorified fast food in the metro area and frankly, I am tired of them all, Macarony Grill, Chillis, UNO, Fridays, Ruby Tuesdays, etc etc etc, bah, boring food
….

Try real restaurants for a change. Granted, there a a lot of expensive ones, but if you shop around, youll see there are many where you will spend just a bit more than you would at the glorified fast foods. San Juan magazine has a great restaurant guide.

We went to this italian rest. one time right in front of Doña fela’s parking in OSJ. It was fuckin’ awesome. Especially the appetizer (las bolas!!! las booolaaaas!!!!! *drool*) aaaanyway I’m waiting a while before coming back because last time both of us forgot to include a tip when we left. i bet they looooved us.
But I’m willing to go back anytime for the ball, man, the fucking balls. they were awesome. If it were me, I’d make a meal out of all those appetizers.
“Gimme a platter of BALLS with a side of ball sauce!!”… heheheh
*BTW, those “balls” were huge nuggets filled with mashed rice, parmesan and several herbs that tasted like you just died and went to god’s own restaurant.

LIAR!!!, we did not FORGET to GIVE him a tip!, I didn’t WANT to charge the tip on my mastercard!

Please.

Vayan a El Hipopótamo (digo, ahi vamos de vez en cuando Eze y yo) … es un ambiente más bohemio, no sé si eso les tripee … y no es tan caro tampoco, y la comida (buenos, los sanguichitos hi class y las croquetas y etc etc) son pa morirse!

Las croquetas de El Hipopotamo son deliciosas. Hmmm. A ver si llevo a lightshadow para alla manyana. BUAAJAJJAAJJA!

Coge la carretera 901 de Yabucoa hacia Maunabo. En el lado de Yabucoa, antes de llegar a Maunabo, hay un restaurante que queda en una loma en frente del Mar Caribe. Se llama El Horizonte, es un restaurante de mariscos, y la vista es fenomenal. Fucking breath-taking…. La langosta es buena si te la comes al ajillo y con tostones con par de friítas….. No está mal para una vueltita un doming por la tarde.
Queda como a una hora desde San Juan, si tomas el expreso de San Juan a Ponce, pero te bajas en Caguas y te montas en la 30 hasta que llegues a Humacao. En Humacao coge la 53 hacia Yabucoa, la cual te deja al frente de la 901. Una vez en la 901 no puedes perder El Horizonte, pues está al lado de la carretera. A propósito, la carretera esa está cabrona también, quedando al borde de barrancos al lado del mar…..

Ya sé dónde ir en PR cuando algún día me toque ir.
No es fácil cuando se está en pareja ir a algunos sitios… ya casi no hay sitios nice para relax y chill-out. Ni siquiera acá. Mi vida social nocturna se ha reducido a un 0.0% … es muy poco lo que salgo de noche…
