Eric does have the most awesome taste! That's what comes from reading every men's fashion magazine on the rack. Eric will look great too in the creme Basco blazer and russet wool slacks. Do we knock 'em dead when we walk into a room or what? Hugo's gonna choke on his microphone tonight when he sees us storm the place.
Ummmmmmm, good wine. I need a haircut. Hey, when do you start growing hair in your ears? I mean, I'm 33 -- do I need to start worrying about body hair growing in unwanted places...? Oh, my God -- am I going bald? No, it's exactly the same hairline it's been since college -- since you dated...Mark....
Mark....wonder where he's gonna be tonight? Wonder who he's gonna kiss "Happy New Year" with tonight -- sure won't be me.
Oh, my God!!!!!!! The place is amazing! They did the best job with the decor-- oh, Jesus! The dancers on stage are really outstanding. Was that Gregās friend who just did the splits in a red flannel jockstrap! No, but you gotta love that kind of flexibility in a guy....
Where's Greg?
Oh.
Over there, at the foot of the stage, drooling. Trying to catch a drop of Mike's sweat in his open mouth....Greg!!!! I call out, "Greg!"
Gonna have to rein this boy in tonight. He's like the last lovelorn beagle with Mike. When's he gonna learn to at least go after gay men when you want a relationship! Now, where the hell did Eric go??? Easy to get lost in a party like this.
Close to midnight. Iāve lost Eric.
Greg's had too much champagne.
Hugo's in FINE FORM tonight -- working this crowd into a frenzy with those sexy innuendo's... where the hell is Eric?
11:58pm...
"Greg! Have you seen Eric?"
Greg's so far away, he can't even hear me...I'm looking and looking...
11:59...and counting...
"Eric! Eric!" I'm shouting to be heard, even though I know full well, it's a waste of time. This isn't good -- not kissing my man at midnight is a bad omen -- I know it...
