Be Still My Beating Heart

Last Saturday, I discovered a few things. First, my friend told me that I can quickly get to Astoria from Harlem by taking the M60 bus. Then I heard this really cool band named Sawyer from Boston play at the Bohemian Beer Garden. Those kids rocked! Finally, I found the new malt beverage of my dreams, Smirnoff Twisted Green Apple. It’s way better and cheaper than an apple martini!

Russians

My friends and I fell in love with the fruit-infused vodka and the charming bartender at Russian Samovar, a Russian Vodka bar and restaurant (256 West 52nd Street). I really enjoyed the Old World charm of this Midtown haunt. We sampled exotic flavors such as plum, peach, lemon and even coriander and cleansed our palates with delicious appetizers. It’s a fun place for a date, too and you can have the piano guy play your favorite tune!

Send Your Love

It’s Extremely Gay week here in the In-Why-See. (Love that Ted Casablancas!) By the end of the week, I will have attended a gay blogger reading, gone to the Mermaid Parade and maybe watch the Gay Pride Parade on Sunday. But the gayest thing EVER is to be married to Liza Minelli!

An Englishman in New York

From the Anglophile files… One of my favorite bloggers is Guy Brighton’s New York Guide. He has a listing of all the places to watch the Euro 2004. Plus, he’s reviewed many cool bars and restaurants in NYC.

If You Love Somebody, Set Them Free

OK, so I am single, single and single. I get so many emails about summer shares and sublets that I got an idea. Instead of posting an ad about wanting a summer share, I want to post an ad for sharing the summer. Hopefully, this will help me find my one true desire, a summer boyfriend. I just want “some dude” from June 23 to Labor Day. If anyone knows any seasonal boyfriend candidates, then let me know. Thanks!
