Saturday morning, Nicky and I woke up and headed to Kensington for breakfast at the Inn Kensington Cafe, and then to his father’s house in the El Cerrito hills to clean out the roof gutters in anticipation of this week’s mega-rain. The house overlooks the eastern side of the hills, into Tilden Park, and is a lovely flat-roofed structure. His father is an architect and designed the house and several other of the homes in that neighborhood.
After we finished the gutters, it was time to get Nicky to work, so I drove him to downtown Oakland and the restaurant. I had to go to Berkeley to Bodywork Central to pick up some massage lubricants. The store is going out of business after 15 years, and they were fairly steeply discounting their remaining stock, so I got a nice price on the various lotions and gels and creams I purchased. Score!
I gassed up the vehicle and still had a few hours to kill before Nicky got off work, so after making a visit to Sacred Rose Tattoo to see my tattooist and make an appointment for mid-May, I headed over to the restaurant and hung out with the customers and staff there. There was fun and lively conversation, and they make such yummy oysters!
Nicholas closed the restaurant down and we headed back to UGH for our evening’s activities.
Sunday morning, I headed over to my friend P. A. Cooley’s place to be photographed for the upcoming Facebook | Bearlesque Talent Search this coming Saturday at Edge Bar in the Castro. It’s a fundraiser for the Lemonade Fund, which raises money for critically ill theater workers. Also Sunday, I did some work on the membership renewal letter for Foggy City Dancers.
Later that evening, ![[info]](http://stat.livejournal.com/img/userinfo.gif){kind=small}
bigjohnsf and I met albadger at the Emery Bay Public Market for supper, then headed to the Trader Joe’s nearby for a bit of grocery shopping. Nicky came by after he got off work and we played video games and cuddled, finally falling asleep on the giant couch together.
