Friday December 4th the boy will be here in New York and it will be good to see him. We haven’t seen each other since he left the first week in November. We spent the whole moth of October together and it taught me a few things about my self.
1. I’m still controlling (in a good way) and
2. I don’t smoke as much as I thought.
But seriously I missed the kind of friendships I had back when Jesus walked the earth.
And although I do have some close friends, friendship to me is something I take serious. How serious, well if I can call you at 4am to help me move a body no questions asked I consider you a friend.
For the month of October the boy had an opportunity to produce a reading of his screenplay. I had the bright idea to have him stay with me here in New York, since he would have to conduct auditions and the like and commuting back and forth from Philly to New York would be costly.
The first week in I knew I was going to have to give him the smack down. When I called one day to see how he was doing he told me he went to the store to by breakfast.
Being a good top I didn’t reach through the phone and smack him, I asked if he was outside already? He wasn’t, that’s when I reached through the phone and smacked him. “I went food shopping, cook yourself something. I know your chain smoking and drinking soda.” And most likely he was.
The month progressed better after that, I made sure he at least had a descent breakfast when I was home and he made sure I drank water and had cigarettes. I kept him focused on doing what he needed to do giving him his time to search for a daddy.
And he gave me room to do my spiritual work.
We talked a lot about art and books and movies. We sat around on Sundays and watched lifetime movies and single in the city which both of us are.
He stayed up one evening to watch some guys look for spirits in an asylum on TLC for seven hours, then was afraid to go to sleep or something like that. When I got up to smoke around 11 he was still watching and I almost got roped in. Okay I did get roped in but not for long.
As all hallow’s eve approached we clashed a bit. Since for me the days before and after is the Sabbath for witches, (at least this one) but for gay men in New York it’s all about cursing and the parade. And the boy went on and on like the hot buttered popcorn about what he should wear to the bar. I on the other hand was spending the evening at the cemetery.
Holloween came and went and November 1st was the boy’s birthday, and soon after was the reading which went well considering.
And then the boy was off. In the days that followed I had to admit I missed him. I got some crazy idea in my head that we should compete in a Sir/ boy contest. It shouldn’t matter that he’s a gay leather boy that likes to sing show tunes and I’m a levi wearing timberland stomping sadist who raps along with Jay Z.
So tomorrow December 4th two things are happening the boy comes to town and we’ll get to hangout a bit. And it’s JayZ’s birthday.
