Hollywood Art & Culture Center (FL) had an opening this weekend. They are one of my site’s sponsors. The show was two photographers, one of which I worked with at Broward Community College. Teresa is very meticulous and does very sensual work. Her photos and videos were set off from the large open space somewhat because they included some sexual content. If her work was the standard from inclusion of sexuality in art, she shows the way for what sex is about. It was about relationships, motherhood, and human sexuality as a general subject, although she used a female to invoke the latter. I want to write a larger article about her exhibition.
There are two major art collectors in this photo. We know each other and they have a really nice collection. I’ve been in their home and seen it myself when I worked for MoCA.
Last night I went to a gay house party and took a friend I met on IRC some years ago. He’s gained some weight since I last saw him in person, even though we don’t live far apart. We have talked on the phone for years yet I have seen him in years. It was good to go out with him again, something I’ve asked him to do many times.
While at the party a handsome guy walked up to me and reintroduced himself. I was shocked as it was a guy I went out with a couple times back about eight years ago. He looks different now. I last called him three years ago right after his mother’s death. He’s always been super nice, as well as his mother and sister, who I had talked on the phone with a few times. I never understood why we hadn’t seem to connect more than we did because he seemed so right. He used to work in the airport control tower, a very stressful job with difficult hours, and I know that had something to do with it. Anyway, his eyes lit up when he saw me last night. That was special. He promised to call me. I’ve lost his phone number and his phone is unlisted.
