The Fella and I were in town for Pride Saturday (oh the irresistable lure of Debbie Gibson!) and I saw you and the tat chatting on the street. Well, not you chating with the tat because that would be just, well, weird. (And for those readers who've never seen or met Jake -- as I hadn't -- he is just as handsome and the tat is just as majestic in person.) Anyhoo, I was all "that's Jake!" but only in my head because if it had been out loud you'd have been all "who are you?" and I'd have been all "um..." and The Fella would've been all "do you ever go anywhere and not make an ass of yourself?" and then I'd have said something snarky to him and you would've felt horribly out of place in the middle of our first ever domestic drama played out in front of strangers in the middle of Halsted and while it might have made for good blog fodder it makes for a very poor first impression.
So long story short, I saw you at Pride and was too stupid to say hi.
I had a panic attack just looking at how attractive all your brunch attendees were. I guess I have a way to go in overcoming my own social anxieties.
Congrats on the run and the pride weekend festivity enjoying!
So honored to have my picture posted on NoFo 
Thanks for having us over and for being part of such a great weekend! XO
You are so much bigger than your social anxiety disorder, but in a way it's nice to know that super sexy mucsley guys with great domestic partners have to suffer in some way also , but I am thinking you have that problem mostly under control . all your friends are ridiculously studly and sexy , if you ever decide to quit the book club and have a orgy . please invite me .. Your super duper sexiest friend is the dark haired man that shortend his medal ribbon so the actual medal wouldn't get in the way of his fabulous abs , thank him for that !!!
Glad you had a Wonderful Pride you deserve it !!
"Some of these ridiculously hot friends were race winners. And they shamelessly rubbed our faces in their bemedaled superiority"
I would shamelessly rub my face in some of that.
Jake,
Where is your partner's brother? I was hoping to see a picture of him during your brunch party to finally meet him. The story you wrote about him a couple of months ago was so sweet and brought tears to my eyes...
We have decided to keep pictures of him off my blog. People only know him by a pseudonym, so with no pictures he can still remain anonymous.

Glad to see you had fun! I love the Dorothy picture, y'all are such a cute couple.
I just went to Pride weekend in Houston for the first time (I know, I know, how lame that I haven't been before) and it was AWESOME! I even got a little choked up at the thousands upon thousands of people who think gay rights are important enough to support with their presence at a gay fabulous party all weekend.
Hot guys... yum. Hot gay guys... even better!
