The Bachelor Pad @ Adayar

I am a house proud Queer Boy, with an unusually strong aversion to making house calls. And one of the outcomes of this aversion , has been putting, sleepy, nondescript drowning Madipakkam on the map, all on my own. The Boys have to come to me!

This works beautifully, as most gay boys stay with family or friends till very late in their lives, so they are always on the lookout for a "With Place", Date :P.

So I found it strange when a date, who I have known for over a year now, insisted that I come down to his pad, this time around..I played the scene in my mind more than a few times, and almost bailed out. But I did go, It was too long since I had met him.

Sweet Man that he is, he had clean and place, and he was excited having me over at his place, but would time and again, stop and say It's not as good, as comfy as your place ..and this bugged me. So I sat him down and asked him, if he thought that way , why did he call me here ?

He was taken back by the question, but he told me that he really wanted to invite me over , for some time now. But some how never had the chance, and that he was also was concerned about the state of the pad...but today he was alone, so he did put some effort cleaning up , and called me ..how can you not like the man?

So it was over a dinner of Alu/Muli Paranthas from Mast Kalandar, we Talked, funny stories from campus , his impending marriage, how he was looking forward to it , and some how, he did not have any of the dichotomy, that is so evident in gay men, he was happy. I am a habitual baiter, so I did throw him a hooker, " Will you continue seeing men?"..and he thought about it for a bit and gave me a confident No!

He explained to me how seeing a men, fulfilled his need for companionship and intimacy, which was impossible for him growing up with Women..and now that he found that in a Woman, he was ready to move on..sex was just incidental in the scheme of things..he looked at me, and told me that it was Ok, if I did not want to meet him any more..but how could I not? He was honest, truly enjoys and cares...so we keep talking....

Utterly Motherly Delicious

I did lunch with Shanu and his Mom, who is in town visiting for some time. I am still gushing. It was simple and Delicious , cooked with a lot of love ..simple Alu gobi, Dal, Raita and Achar with roti. Shanu offered me a drink, but to my surprise, I was not comfortable drinking in front , so I declined. We spent a lazy hour talking to his mom as she cooked and served us lunch.

I love Mom's..so invite me back soon, Dal, Bati and Churma this time on.

Summer Time and Livin is Easy



Summer time and the living is Easy, the fish are jumping , and the cotton is high , your Daddy's rich and your ma is good looking. So Hush little baby, don't you Cry. Essential Jazz.




It's Summer Time in Chennai and I am wondering if the living is going to be easy! I try Hard, check whats for lunch today ..Iced Lemon Tea and Figs, in the Nude! Bliss :P

It's been two months since I left a High Paying job, to take some time off , and do absolutely nothing. Creating a stir amongst my friends and colleagues , on this abrupt change in course..but I am thankful , they understood, and I am amazed by my Sisters and Parents who were with me 100%.

So is it Easy? A difficult one, for some one who's toed the line most of his life. But as of this post, I am enjoying the limbo. I know I will soon tire of it, or finances will soon become an issues, but till then, I have time.

Unintentionally, one of the things that I am enjoying most right now, is living my gay adolescence (Why else will I dance around in barely there hot pants , at a party!). I just came out to my family and friends late last year, so it's nice to have some time, without the woes of having to maintain a facade , and constantly keep that thin line between my lives. It's one beautiful blur right now , a blur with the the colors of the rainbow..

PS: I am also getting the drafts out so you will see some posts come by...happens if you loudmouth blogging powers to drunk cute interesting men you've only just met :P
