Well this was a trip that was supposed to include London, but then plans changed and we were not going to go. Then at the last minute, my business partner purchased me a ticket to go because he knew that I needed my miles so that I could reach my executive status with American Airlines. But anyway we were going there to also do a promo and a resort there called Helios. Its a pretty popular place in Palm Springs that a lot of people go to and this was during their Gay Pride.
The first day were there I met up with model from Flava Works; Ken Mariano and Baby Star. It was actually me, Cody Kyler and Whitebread that fly in to LAX early Friday morning. Flight was good did not drink much as I normally do, just had breakfast and a couple glasses of orange juice. We landed and made it to the hotel after picking up the rental that we were going to drive to Palm Springs. I filmed a scene which was actually hot for Flava Works between Cody Kyler, Baby Star and Gianni Luca. It was cool besides the fact that we were all pretty tired from being up early and getting on an early flight. But it worked out.
We got on the road and punched it to Palm Springs from Los Angeles. It was about 3-4 hours before we got there. Once we got there we met up with our friends that we were staying with and visiting while we were in town. Later that after noon we arrived and got settled in. Then we all went swimming and sat out in the hot tub for a while talking about plans for the weekend and what we had to get done. Had a few drinks and then pretty much went to sleep after that. The day was very long and I was pushing it trying to stay up but it was not working out. I did have my moments where I was thinking about London because I really wished that he was there with me. There were two of us that was there and our lovers weren’t with us. Which was me with out London and Ken Mariano without Ninja Nixon. But it was ok because we knew that the trip wasn’t going to last long.
Got up the next morning and started off with a nice cup of coffee, yea i drink it. I really didn’t start doing that shit till I became a police officer. Even after I resigned from being a cop I still continued to drink it. Yummy good stuff, full of caffeine lol. Got the gear together and headed to Helios filmed a duo and a solo shoot was done as well. I really did not do anything for my company, I did not have anything setup because I had not planned on going….remember. But it was still cool though. We left there and went back later on that night to kinda just hang around. There were a large amount of people that were showing up after we got back there around 11pm. People of all ages from 21 and up. I saw somethings that I have never seen before. Nothing against it at all, because I am not the one to judge but these people were getting down and they were a lot older too but clearly did not give a fuck, which was fine as well because that’s the type of party that was being held at the resort. There was some very well known names that was there other than me and Cody Kyler. Zack from Unzipped Media was there and Victor from Men of Color as well. I had the opportunity to speak with both which was so fucking great. Well at the end of that night we grabbed a bite to eat and headed back to the house after we got something to eat. We sat up and ate and laughed and talked about the events that had happened over the weekend so far. I was sooooo tired, I had half of my favorite drink because there was no pineapple juice. It just don’t taste right without the pineapple juice. Orange juice just don’t cut it for me. That’s why its called Pineapple Malibu.
The next morning we got up and started packing because we had to head back to LA. I had a flight to catch from LAX back to Chicago later that night. Before we left we headed to Helios to do one more solo shoot for Flava Works with Cody Kyler. Of course I filmed it because we all know that I have good skills lol. But it was cool.
We got on the road and to the ride back to LA, got here quicker this time because there was not a lot of traffic that slowed us down. We got checked in to the hotel and I need to shower because sometimes riding in a car that long..ugh well I just wanted to be fresh when I got on my flight back to Chicago. Eveyone leaves out tomorrow except for me and my business partner of Flava Works, we leave out tonight. I’m sitting here now hoping that I get my upgrade to first class. When I last checked there was only one seat available. But strangely when I checked about an hour ago there were 3 seats open. So we will see what happens when I get to the airport.
Well you know how it goes from here. I will chat with you all later.
KEEP IT GANGSTA.
