I find it amazing how everyone has such different tastes in men. Just like when I check out the guys on Rentmen, there are some men on there who I can't see anyone ever being attracted to, but they all have their followers.

I did it! I got the spray tan and boy do I look like a stud! Seriously, I went ahead and did it last night. I got sprayed, went home, put an old sheet on the bed in case some of the crap rubbed off, watched TV, then feel asleep. After several hours I turned "bronze". 12 hours later took a shower to wash off the bronze and became this beautifully tan...….hairy, over weight old man! Actually, it looks pretty decent, and it has boosted my confidence. I feel better about my appearance. I'm ready for Vegas!

The picture of Trump made me think twice about tanning, but my friend at the salon assured me it would look natural. Hell, no one would know me anyway....except my escort and I'm paying him to like me. Someone suggested I stop being so self-conscious about myself. He's SO right. I need to work on that.

I did a little searching on Facebook this morning to see if I could find more info about my hunky bartender. I used his first name, which isn't too common, along with the area the restaurant is in, and low and behold, a name pops up with his picture. Once I went through the Facebook pictures I went to Instagram and found more pictures. Taking the information and piecing it together revealed a very interesting young man. He's a college student working on a pre law degree. He is the lead singer and guitar in a local rock band. He loves dogs. From time to time interesting quotes concerning the human condition show up with his pictures. He's a body builder and certified to be a personal conditioning coach.
 
Of course, everyone is wondering if he's gay. Very interesting. I came across a picture of him playing his guitar with a gay pride flag superimposed over it. There were several comments to the side of the picture including one from an uncle who seemed to disagree with his support of the gay community and wondered what his father thought. This gifted young man shot right back at him uncle saying he was 18, an adult, and he would form his own opinions about such matters and continued to explain how being gay is not a choice. Now, no where does he say he's gay. He could very well just be an individual who stands up for the LGBT community. His mother even weighed in and said that she and her husband raised their children to stand up for what they believe and be able to discuss issues with people. It looks like he had one or two relationships with girls in high school and maybe college, but it looks like there's no relationship going on now. He was a high school cheerleader for most of his high school career, and I guess that could set off the gaydar, but there are lots of male cheerleaders who are straight. Anyway, he was a cheerleader and he sure had the guns to lift those ladies high in the air.
 
Well, that's our boy. He sounds like a very special young man. As a retired teacher, it's very rewarding to know and work with young people like this. As an old gay man I can only wish I were 30 years younger. I have a picture, but I can't figure out how to attach it.

just say no...

Heading to Vegas next week. I'd rather not look like a beached white whale (yes I am overweight. I asked the lady who cuts my hair if she had a spray tan product she'd recommend that wouldn't turn me orange. She said they did spray tans at her salon. She said it would look very bronze when you first get it applied, but over night it would turn into a light tan. I think she said it would only last 4-5 days. Any recommendations?

I left a decent tip, but afterwards thought it could have been bigger. It's a Lone Star Restaurant. I don't know if their bar is the neighborhood bar type. I think it's more of a wait at the bar until a table opens up kind a place, but I'm sure that doesn't mean you can't come in for a drink or two. No ring. No real gay vibe, though you never know these days. He reminds me of two of my former escorts, Andrew Irons (not AJ), and Troy in Las Vegas. They were very straight acting. I wonder if he's a college student? An athlete? Is he's a student is he local or will he be going away to school this week? Hey, I'm old enough to be his grandfather.

I'm embarrassed to say that I did sneak a few pics while pretending to be checking my emails. I don't know if I'd feel comfortable posting them or one of them. I'd have to do some cropping. Stay tuned.

I doubt if bartenders are allowed to drink with the patrons.

Exactly! I don't have a family that I have to support, and I am seeing people I know who are around my age and they have a hard time getting around. I'm still in generally good health and can get around pretty easily, but how long that will last I don't know. I sometimes think I spent too much on travel and escorts in my younger years, but now I look back and am glad I did.

UPDATE! TONIGHT IT WAS STEAK AND BARTENDER! I decided to eat at the steakhouse tonight hoping that the bartending hunk would be working, and I wasn't disappointed. Walked in and the hostess told me it would be a 10 minute wait...…..OR I could sit at the full-service bar. (Be smart I told myself) I calmly told the hostess that I'd sit at the bar. I looked over towards the bar and there he was! I sat at the bar and over walks this cute, cute, cute well built hunk (5'9"/ 170? 180?) in black rimmed glasses; smooth, tanned skin; body hugging black t-shirt revealing a muscular torso and beautiful biceps; and tight jeans holding back an awesome ass and muscular legs. The bartending hunk would be my waiter for the night (slow down heart, act natural). He told me his name, then when he took my order he asked for my name to put on the order, and he called me by my name all night which a good bartender is supposed to do . Though, come to think about it he didn't call anyone else by name (don't read anything into it). He was a great bartender; very personable and attentive to all his customers. He did everything an exceptional bartender would do. You could tell he was a sharp young man. There was no real opportunity to talk to him, but that was okay. He was just nice to look at. By the way, I had the 16 once sirloin.

Thanks! I plan these get togethers once or twice a year as part of a trip to either Vegas or New York City. One, or if affordable, two nights of each trip I set up as a date night with a hot hunk of an escort. I described my idea of the perfect night or date with a hot guy in a past thread and that's what I strive to do. I go all out to find the perfect hotel room (that's affordable), a memorable restaurant for dinner, and an escort who fits my idea of a dream to create an amazing evening. It gets a little expensive, especially when you consider my limited income, but I've come to the conclusion that I need to set more money aside each year for this activity, because I truly believe it's important to my mental health and being happy. The hotel will be the Wynn in Vegas with a corner room that has two walls with floor to ceiling windows. The restaurant will be the Top of the World at the Stratosphere (my most expensive meal of the year). You can't beat the atmosphere there. The escort will be one of the highest rated guys out there, who still has reasonable prices. In fact, I don't know how I've missed him all these years.

I lived in a small town and went to high school in the 60's. We never thought about anyone being gay. It just wasn't anything people talked about. Later in life my job and where I live have kept me from having the courage to come out. I'm sure there are a lot of people who know and never say anything. There have only been around four or five people who have asked. A couple of them were individuals who didn't deserve a truthful answer. One was a close friend who lived 200 miles way and I finally told her the truth. And it felt so good to tell someone! The other was my elderly father and I lied to him, because I knew there was no way he'd understand. I forgot, my niece talked to me about it and I told her the truth, because I knew she'd understand. I'm getting together with an escort next week for an overnight, and one of the reasons I'm excited about it is because I get a chance to be myself and talk to someone about gay things.

What a good idea to have your deli make up a care package. The few times I've flown first class and a meal was offered they weren't too bad. Better than anything I'd make at home. Steak is usually my first choice. I hate it when I'm in the mood for steak and the restaurant only offers 9 oz. cuts. That's why I like the big steak houses where you can get 16 or 20 oz. cuts. Though I'm finding the 12 ouncers can be pretty filling in my old age. There are times, though, I have to have pasta which I love almost as much as steak. Steak and pasta at the same time might be a little much, though in Italy they have their pasta almost like we eat a salad before the main course.

I plan too.

I never make up shopping lists. I'm too unorganized. However it might be a nice change. Better yet, I could make a list of everything I need to do around the house that I've putting off. However, that would end up depressing me. I'm a big procrastinator. There's always porn on the internet.

Ah....muscle worship. Give me a nice, DIMLY lit hotel room on a high floor of a hotel with floor to ceiling windows and a beautiful view of the city lights. Throw in a cute, boy next door, smooth, tanned, muscular, defined, hunk with a V-shaped torso, amazing eyes, and a sensuous, cocky, sexy personality. I would stand him in front of the window and have him flex as I explored his body with my hands and mouth. Gradually, I'd lead him to the bed where I massage him and continue exploring his physique with gentle, caressing hands, and foreplay. Now it is time for me to insert the vanilla activities I'm comfortable with and then end the evening activities with me relaxing in his strong arms or falling asleep while being embraced by him. Okay, I need an escort and soon!
