We are Hitting Happy Hour Tonight

[dotinthesky]

Days spent drinking, mornings in bed. Nights with friends who smoke pot and can drive drunk. The city asleep as we cruise its streets. Every last sentece falls into place, the holidays finally here. A car with no radio, clubs that play Billy Idol's "Dancing with Myself". The floor filled with people moving their bodies, my lush mouth saying:

I wish all my friends were here.

The lights crossing our heads, running below our feet, reflecting on the mirrors smogged with cigarettes - like being inside a megatunnel. Lung smoke and line-ups to snort coke in the multisex toilet stalls. The stylish and the celebrities, like Marisa Orth And Joao Gordo.

The nightclub was called The Edge, for G.L.S. (gays, lesbians and sympathisers) and Modernists (geometrical clothes, Blondie lookalikes, white-trash chique, mullets from outerspace).

Crowds descended on us out of nowhere, vodkas with red bulls. Girls wanting to screw, boys kissing boys while their piss run out of the urinals.

My T-shirt, black, saying "Joy Division", an image of Ian by the microphone. Doc Martens, borrowed, black. Summer trousers, linen, black. Tattoos and eye-liner missing in action.

Is evil something you are, or something you do? - Morrissey

Who has youth on their side? I have as I dance to Depeche Mode, New Order, B52s, The Bangles, Gary Numan. Gay youth doesn't look at me; the gay albimo follows me with his rabbit-eyes from across the room. I dance by myself - Sao Paulo's life just like the streets of Tokyo.

I still have the message you left me...how cheesy is that!!!

[commonpeople.livejournal.com]

[4q.livejournal.com]

[roguejournal.livejournal.com]

[commonpeople.livejournal.com]

muitos vinhos boms!

[peraventure.livejournal.com]

ohhh...hipsters in Sao Paolo, too? sad, terribly sad. do they do that shaggy hair with the chunk cut short and sticking up at the crown, too? I must admit, my hair is getting rather hipsterish, though. One side is shaved a bit with a gash in it (my friend cuts my hair now) and I have a bit of a mullet...but I can spike it up or lay it down if I want to and it's beauty! I love it. It needs to be dyed again. I was not supposed to be a blonde.

[commonpeople.livejournal.com]

hipsters here, there, everywhere. hipsters nice, bad, grumpy, sad, happy, mad. hipsters cute, tall, short, medium, sexy, not at all.

you should post a pict of yourself, friends only!

:)

[peraventure.livejournal.com]

I love boys in eyeliner...

you are going to visit NYC one day, right? I'll take you to Hole and the Cock (ID'd only by a red neon rooster in the window) and the Met Museum all in one day. *grin*

[commonpeople.livejournal.com]

i would love that. NY is one of my favourite cities. the last time I was there, in 1996, I had the time of my life.

[peraventure.livejournal.com]

Well, whenever. gay boys can stay in my bed anytime, free of charge. So if yer by yourself you've got free lodgings.

[commonpeople.livejournal.com]

and are there good gay clubs to go dancing?

[peraventure.livejournal.com]

dancing...well, the gay boys get all the clubs, so I'll suss it out. it's crap city for girls. a lot of clubs don't have cabaret licenses (required to combine alcohol with dancing in NYC), though, so I'll have to ask my friend what gay clubs you can dance at.

[psyfi.livejournal.com]

come and join me and pamtomimewhore at myspace.com....we'll have a good chat there....

[commonpeople.livejournal.com]
