Yesterday afternoon I spent some time hanging out with my parents in celebration of my mom’s upcoming birthday on September 11. Since I won’t be here then, I wanted us to have some alone-time while I am home this visit. I got her a great Coach purse that I think she loved … the poor woman ain’t all about the accessories (like I am) so I wanted to hook her up with something really simple but cute. Hahahaha … this is why it’s great to have a gay son, I think ;)

I hung out afterwards with Sarah and Mark at their place (where I’m staying this visit) and we ordered amazingly delish Jet’s pizza and breadsticks. We ended up watching a horribly edited version of A Nightmare on Elm Street for a while before we decided to call it a day.

This afternoon, we are going out to Sarah’s uncle’s lake house for a pre-Labor Day BBQ with her family … I am very much looking forward to that. My time in Detroit is going way too fast … but I’m loving it.
