Lessons from Weho

[+ purplekow]

I went to West Hollywood for the first time and stayed there for two days. I learned quite a bit. Here are a few of the things I learned:

 

1 No matter how hot you were 30 years ago, that same style does not look good on you now. 50 year old men with high cut shorts which basketball players wore in the 1980.s are just sad

 

2 No matter how good looking you are now, wearing your hair in a bun makes you look like my maternal grandmother.

 

3. An interesting T shirt can get you all kinds of desirable attention even at fair, fat, and fifty something. After wearing my Archer "I Would Do Me" T shirt to the pool party and having Dane Scott point at me and tell everyone in earshot that: "I want to eat that man's ass." was only just the beginning. Dane did go on to explain that in pointing at me he was really pointing as the picture of Archer on my T shirt. But for one brief bright and shining moment I almost Camealot. So I wore the T shirt two days later in West Hollywood and I had three occasions in which exceptionally attractive young men asked to take selfies with me (well with my T shirt) and one very handsome Bartender at the Abbey bought Archer a beverage which I got to drink though I did manage to spill a bit on the shirt.

 

4. Joey at the WeHo Bistro on LaCienga and Holloway is a tremendously handsome and outgoing young man and his signature dish, Joey's Spaghetti Bolognaise is a great lunch. If you go, ask for him and tip him well. Both he and the pasta are delicious.

 

5. Two days in WeHo are not enough and too many at the same time.

6. Chichi LaRue's was rather lackluster but I still spent a bit of money on toys.

 

Any other lessons for WeHo you care to share?

PK, I'm just thankful you survived meeting Ryan Thick in the flesh & didn't end up in the CCU.

I learned that if you see someone who looks like porn star Chad Conners (or is it Connors?) working at a convenience store, it's probably him, and you should work up the nerve to say something to him instead of staring and drooling like an idiot while he rings you up. It was years ago, and I'm still kicking myself.

Yes I survived seeing all of those handsome men at the pool party and managed to keep my police blotter record clean though I will never think of parking lots and neckties in the same way.

I was kinda disappointed that the T-shirt I wore to the pool party didn't get any comments. Although in everyone's defense, I wasn't wearing it very long.

Hmm ... I didn't see any of the t-shirts PurpleKow and Rob were wearing, I guess I made it later when the party unfolded ...

but speaking of t-shirts my favorite is this one:

Thank you for mentioning that you did not wear your t-shirt very long as I don't remember seeing it on you. However, do remember liking what I did see!

Lesson from Weho: It's turning into just another upscale neighborhood. Unfortunately. The "luxury" apartments are cropping up, and the corresponding foreign and/or new money is creeping in.

With or without the upscaling in WeHo, will there still be hot men there to meet?
