Happy Friday
There are just some guys that will always be my faves...Like Mr Nick Youngquest here. I will never get tired of looking at pics of this man! I have posted him so so many times...So happy Friday ladies and gents! Its a very foggy morning here in Seattle. As I look out my office window the fog is thick and you cant see over to the next block or see any buildings in the skyline.... Very vampire! Which reminds me that I have to go see Eclipse at the theater soon. I love these marine layers morns and then the sunny afternoons ( as does my yard). Feeling a little under the weather today but I hope its just a quick yuck as I want to get out and enjoy the weekend.

Moms birthday is tomorrow and she would of been 62. Going to a small Hawaiian festival with Dad and her 2 sisters and we will spend some time there as she would of done so as well. She enjoyed going out to the community and then seeing all her friends....Oh my... I have had a rough few nights. I have been a bit more sad lately then the last few weeks. I think its something to do with the time getting farther away from her actual passing which is about 5 weeks now. Reality just sucks and its getting deeper in ..... Something will remind me of her and I will get happy and then lots of times very sad and then I get all emotional and cry...So some of time I try to put it out of my head so I don't cry and get upset and then I feel guilty for putting her out of my head... All these emotions and feelings are so new to me. Its still a roller coaster. I am doing my best though and I know she is watching over me. I miss her so much.

Hope your Friday is nice and your weekend nicer... big love to you all! XO Rad

Hey Cowboys!
Happy Humper Day!
The other husband and I hope its a grand one....
Rads Summer Music Picks....
There is always a summer time album or I guess you would call it a release these days that represents my summer. This summer I am listening to ALOT of music with all the killer music that has been released. As always a few really stand out as my pick for the one that will represent and remind me of the summer of 2010.

I think I am going to call my fave and my pick this summer is Kylie's---Aphrodite.... I like EVERY song! Its on major heavy rotation at my pad that's for sure...So Kylie is the pick when it comes to a full release hands down......Running a close 2nd is Christina Aguileras-Bionic.....A very hard, rough and sassy endeavor for her! I LOVE how she is all "BITCH" mode on this one! Sounds like my "tude" these days... so its all good.... Love so many of the songs but Vanity is by far my fave- its HOT! As she says at the end of the song...."going strong- lets us not forget who owns the throne!" I Love it!

I am also trying to get into the new Scissor Sisters/Night Work and my fave Enrique Iglesias Euphoria...Have a few faves on each release there......and then there is that damm Katy Perry California Girl ear worm that has taken over the fricken planet and will most likely be the official song of summer....I heard it has been number one for 7 weeks! WTF!! Hubby refuses to download it which is fine as you hear it everywhere anyhow....I know so many people that hate it...But give them a drink and you can be sure their asses will shake, rattle and roll ...and they know every word! LOL! damm earworms!

So looks like some DIVAS are my pick! Go Kylie! Go Christina!!

Say what?
Do I have too?
I don't wanna..

I did not want to go to work today but I did....it is really getting to the point of insanity at the office......Some of you know why...I will elaborate more when I can post more about it. All I can say is fuck a rama man!

I did not want to go to my docs apt today....I had a doc visit last Friday and today was a follow up to that and so I had to have a few procedures done.......yes one was the ol scope shoved up my ass.. ...it was kinda strange as he was training a new intern and he was talking to him about what he was seeing....so it took longer than usual......YIKES! But I was a wiling model and I guess it looks good.....But I do have to have a colonoscopy next week just to be on the safe side.....YUCK!

Well Happy Tuesday....... at least the weather is quite splendid :-)

The start of another week....
Nice weather and Thomas Laine

It continues to be sunny and warm...Such nice weather again this week in Seattle. Sunny with hi 70's and low 80's.-- with semi cool evenings. SO PERFECT! As this wonderful weather continues for us I thought I would use Mr Thomas Laine as my guy to honor this weather. He just reminds me of that boy at the beach... Cute, Young, Blonde, Tan and well you know....

Man it would be a good week to be off....Would be nice to go to the beach and just hang out and chill....I want to go to the beach with those Portland boys Arnie and Blair...a little birdy told me they know some really good places to catch some rays in good ol PDX... I feel a little itchy in my throat today....I think I feel a slight cold coming on...I think I need to take a few days off this week....

Hope you week is fantastic!
White Pants

Rad and Linda

So I have to admit I LOVE white pants. Maybe it was partially due to my upbringing as men wore white pants to look spiffy back in my day..at least I thought so. To me it does and will always look so good with a nice shirt or a Hawaiian shirt! Some of you know exactly what I am referring to as back in the days all male stars wore white pants....Elvis, Tab, Rock.....all them 50 and 60's guys and they all looked so cool! Also for me a traditional Hawaiian groom and if your in a Royal Hawaiian Court as a prince you wear the white pants as well.....HOT!

So anyhow I am a white pant/jeans supporter! I haven't worn them often since my 20's....But a few weeks ago I found this nice pair of white jeans at Joe Jeans at the outlet mall....No I didn't pay $249 for them (though that was what they were originally! WTF!) I found them on the clearance rack for $39! So I sported them over the weekend at a few party's on Saturday night.....and I must say I really liked them!!! I wore them with a light weight V neck T as it was a warm evening....

Had a bunch of "nice pants!" comments...Not sure if they were all good or bad though....A buddy of ours did tell me how he loved my pants but since he goes commando he thought it would be a prob...Made me laugh as I just said well "if you have a big dark bush maybe"...LOL! But I also said it would be ok as I had on black undies myself and it was fine but they were jeans and not some thin white material!! I do know that he is hung though and I told him he might have a nice VPL...which would be much to the delight of all the gays......as he is straight. Maybe I need to go back and check the clearance rack for a pair for him as well :-)

Anywho...What are your thoughts on white jeans or pants?

Nice smirk below! HA

It's the Naughty or Nice Award!

I have to answer the following 10 questions as this VERY fine gent passed this award and these questions on to me.... I guess I then have to pass this award on to 10 bloggers (if I'm feeling nice) or 5 bloggers (if I'm feeling naughty) afterwards.....

Ok on to the questions . . .

1. What is the silliest prank you ever played on someone?

So I had this voice changer phone... this was about 10 years ago...It would make your voice hi or low. Well on one setting it sounded EXACTLY like that sinister voice on the movie Scream. Anyhow I called a bunch of my friends and pranked called them ......Most of them hung up right away......One particular gal pal didn't instead she was like " WHO IS THIS!!!" "I DEMAND YOU TELL ME WHO THIS IS!!" I just keep talking on how I was going to shove a red hot poker up her ass and how she was a little slut.......crazy shit like that...till I had to hang up as something came up.....I think it was my neighbor who popped in...anyhow weeks later this gal pal told me how she had this crazy call and was scared for her life about it...she couldn't sleep for days and was so upset about this crazy devil voice she got a call from.......Guess what.....I realized I had forgotten to call her back after the prank!!!! I didn't have the heart to tell her it was me..and till this day she will never know.....Unless she stumbles onto this blog that is.


2. If you could take a trip anywhere out of the country where would you go? Why?

Portugal-- as that is where my moms parents immigrated from to Hawaii.. It was my moms dream to go one day and we would of gone if she hadn't got sick. She was so very PROUD of her heritage and so I am.


3. Who plays the most influential role in your life?


For sure it was my mom....she was my rock.


4. Are you ok with your significant other being friends with an ex?


It would be ok if he was a decent and nice fella....then sure why not? BUT if the ex was bitchy or mean then I would just have to beat the shit out of him and so then the answer would be no..LOL!


5. Favorite candle scent?


Apple anything..... Though lately some Hawaiian Ginger candles are making my nose happy....


6. Next movie you're excited about seeing?


The home porn I made last week......Oops did I say that out loud... J/K! Wink wink!


7. You must ban one word from the dictionary and all usage, to be no longer uttered or written. What word do you ban?


Cant think of any


8. Do you have any relatives in jail?


Sadly yes......some of them love to go in and out of the slammer it seems----- its like a second home for a few of them.....Personally I think they like the attention they get in the slammer if you know what I mean... I know.....crazy huh?


9. What crazy fads were popular when you were a teenager.


It was the 80's and there were so many! I guess my fave fads to sum it all up was that men's and boys clothes were so much tighter and smaller and I am glad that it is getting back to that look and the saggy shit and rap shit is going away!!!


10. Have you ever been mentioned in a newspaper or on TV?


Of course! Haven't you? Does the "police beat " section count? J/K Wink wink...



Who shall I pass this on to? Well because y'all know I'm always naughty I'm passing it on to just five blog friends... SO many to choose from...Ok boys if your game if not no worries!

So lets see....

Weekends Over--
Back to the Salt Mines
What a weekend!! Friday night was Sams B day--Sam is the guy above with the hubby and I...Had a great time and it was my first night out since my mom has left us really and it was a nice outlet and I had alot of fun. There were lots of pics but I look puffy in all them...yikes!! Just look at the last one below..... Blimpy is my new name! I want to say its from all the crying lately but I think its more that I need to go on a fricken major diet! So we had a GREAT time with Sam and friends and then of course this fine gent who I adore more and more each day......Love ya Derek! So we met up at The Elite for drinks...And they were really strong ones! Looks like I have a new fave bar to "tip it" .... Then we headed over and had a flippen blast at this Karaoke room Derek had arranged-it was a first for me and the hubby--man nothing like 15 plus guys packed into a room belting out songs...You name it we sang it.....Pat Benatar, Neil Diamond, and some faves like Olivia Newton John and so many more. I have to say Mr Solo Derek made it ever so fun! Cake food and solos...very good times! Afterwards we did the bar crawling and went over to PURR for more cocktails and then went and danced our booties off at THE CUFF..... Phew!

Then on Saturday we had a Hawaiian Festival all day and it was nice to see so many family and friends- Its one of the oldest Hawaiian functions in the area and has been going on since the 80's....It was something my mom and I have done so many times together through the years and it was bittersweet to not have her with me this year....but I believe she was with me in spirit. It was a LONG day of hula and food and hula and food.... We had planned to go another bday bash on Saturday night but we were pooped as we got home at about 9pm and then just crashed. Yesterday we planned to go out to some festivals and maybe even meet up with friends for a late lunch and do a farmers market but instead we ended up at home with the kids and relaxed and watched movies all day and took 25 plus cat naps....LOL......it was a lovely day! Much to short of a weekend tough and today its back to the salt mines--

Giddy Up!
Its the weekend!

Well the weekends here, weather is fine and dandy and we have been invited to many events, parties and shin digs this weekend. I want to be a good boy and partake in all of them and will try for sure...Except I wont be doing Karaoke tonite princess! well maybe....

Thinking of mom this am and how she would of loved tomorrows Hawaiian festival. Its the oldest one in the area and we started going to it back in the 80's....When not many Hawaiians was even in the area.... Last year hubby and I took her and she had a great time. It will be very hard to see all of her friends and colleagues tomorrow. alot of them were at her service but I know many that was not will be seen tomorrow. I will put on a brave face and REPRESENT as she would of wanted it that way. I am proud of my culture and she was proud of it and she was so very well known in the community. So I will get my hula on tomorrow for sure. Here I go tearing up yet again... So I will just say....Have a wonderful weekend y'all.....

Baby I am burning out of control.....
A Roller Coaster Of Emotions


Hope your week is going well. Its been nice here in Seattle--Kinda too warm and hot with the 80-90 temps... but looks like we are back into a steady pattern of 70's for sometime which is perfect! Not to hot not too cold.

So I am a roller coaster of emotions on a daily basis these days.....I'm happy...then sad.... then excited.... then bitchy...and for some reason I sleep a heck of allot these days. Losing mom has definitely changed me in allot of ways....I guess I am looking at my life a little differently lately as I reflect more and more...Maybe I shouldn't be writing anything right now as it maybe too deep ....oh well... I guess there is a delete option if needed on my blog anyhow....

So it has been 3 weeks that mum has passed. Before this we were able to have many a long visits and talks and in them we would discuss all sorts of things about life and such... We discussed so much and through them I knew what she wanted of me in my life...what she saw in me, thought of me and what I had done with my life thus far. She was so very proud and she made sure I knew that always.... and I have always been so appreciative of her approval on it and proud. I am just so happy we had the opportunity to kinda talk about many things in the last year and then again in the last few months ...though not at all as much as we should off really....but we both tried as we both didn't want to face the fact that she was going to die soon and kinda avoided that subject....She was such a fighter and we all had hope she would beat each battle as she had done so many times. The last battle was just too much for her. And she fought it up to the very end. Such a strong women. Oh those talks...I will cherish each and every one now. I told her on many occasions that I loved her and how how much I am who I am because of her love and upbringing and influences........but really it was only a few days prior to her passing that I told her how much I loved her and also told her how I was going to miss her so so much....That was the only time that I really told mom how much I would miss her....She held me tight and I sobbed more than I ever have in her embrace....even now it breaks my heart to think and its so hard to even write this..... I know I have so much more to say and to elaborate and to put down into words and print ......and I will do so in time.....as I know I will want to have it to look back upon.... to reflect on....my raw emotions....I'm just not so ready to put it all down just yet....

So as days go by and time goes on I feel changes in the midst for me.....some priorities have changed for me even more so now....these are things that were already in the works anyhow....its just now I know how important it is that I keep on the right path I had already started. I really have been implementing changes since the start of the year but now its even more valid and clear. I have even more gumption to get them going and I am more accelerated.

About 2 months ago I had one of many long talks with mom. This one was about my current life and how I felt about it....I wanted change and confided in her...she validated it all..... She was proud of who I had become etc...what I had accomplished etc... but she also knew I was not happy and called me on it! Funny as we both knew exactly why as well. We both agreed that I had become somewhat "lazy" and or "comfortable" in my life. She told me how she knew I was unhappy for quite sometime and how she wished for me to be happy again and that it was up to me to make the changes needed in my life. I knew what they were that needed to be implemented. These changes are even more so important now than ever.

The obvious one is to live life to the fullest as we all know its shorter than we realize. We all know and hear this but even more so as we age and especially when we lose a loved one. So I am going to definitely live this life and make it happy for me and one that would make my mother proud. But to make this a reality I have to make a few personal changes as well. I need to make changes to my rooster..I need to surround myself with true family and friends and to remove the excess baggage and junk that I don't need. More than ever in the past year and now with moms death I can clearly see who the "good eggs" were and are. I already started changing and removing those that don't necessarily fit into my lifestyle- and it wasn't that most of them did anything bad to me.... for most its just I can just see how they don't belong or fit into my life anymore.

Sadly its a no benefit means no need in my life motto right now as to me life is too short to make time for those that..... well you know. And you know what? Since making changes in this dept I am already so much happier.....and it will continue. I need to shed and remove to grow. I will be cordial as my mom would want that but that is all...I need to get back to what made me truly happy and I need to drop the gamers, users and posers....all the BS.... Or at least what I think is BS. I also I need to distance myself from those that are superficiuos I mean who the fuck cares what you drive, where you live, what you wear, where you shop.....etc... Are those people truly happy? And I also need to drop the low end users that give nothing in return and only take take take and live off your culture your Hawaiiana-- all the posers need to say good bye!

I need to look in the mirror and make sure I am happy.... I need to be happy again soon......And I need to live my life how I want to live it--I need to speak up....its a real simple change...change so exciting!!

I so miss you mom...
Its been 2 weeks since my mom passed away. Its been so fucken hard....I slowly I feel myself getting back to normal.......Well I don't know if normal is the right word as I don't think I will ever be normal again. Oh heck I was never normal anyhow.....Its just a big change and a very big hurt that is hard to explain or relay into words....still.....

I so miss her everyday still and think about her every single day so much.... Only thing that helps is keeping busy which seems to help a bit-- as long as my mind seems to be focused on other things it helps... I know I look like shit and feel like shit....Lots of sleeping......but I am hanging in there.
