REDACTED and I met at IAH, and spent some time enjoying amenities prior to boarding UA1192

Leading up to the trip, I’d sent along details of the inflight menu

I ordered drink after drink. The flight attendant asked what the occasion was

We took a taxi over to car rental location, picked up the rental car, a Kia Soul, and took off for Lajas, chasing the setting sun

Drove to Playita Rosada, but found the vehicle entrance closed off

Began turning back, but decided to take a closer look, at which point we found the pedestrian gate was open

Took some photos, and hung around until some cyclists came riding through

Returned to the room for a bit

We had late lunch at Puerto Parguera, where I tried mofongo for the first time

Just shy of 6PM, we boarded the vessel that took us to the Bahía Fosforescénte (Bioluminescent Bay)

Captain told us Puerto Rico was home to three of five year-round bioluminescent bays: Jamaica and The Maldives are host to the other two

There was something magical about that experience. I didn’t bother trying to capture it with my phone camera

20190920 – 20190924 Los Angeles

From September 20 to September 24, 2019, I visited Los Angeles for my first studio scene, starring alongside Alvin Tan and Karla Kush

Friday, September 20

I left Houston via Spirit Airlines NK327. The terminal was packed with people – just the previous day, IAH had shut down because of flooding caused by Tropical Storm Imelda. I shot a quick video to capture the moment:

I arrived at LAX in the evening, rode the FlyAway bus over to Union Station, and the light rail over to the stop closest to my friend Brien’s place. We had dinner together at a vegetarian restaurant – I really enjoyed the food, and commended him on his selection. On the ride there, he told me how he’d brunched at Matt Groening’s home.

Saturday, September 21

Ahead of my travel, I’d reached out to fans in LA, and organized a group lunch.

I didn’t make it in time to catch the light rail, so I had to wait for a while. I briefly considered putting out a blast to indicate I would be showing up late, but settled for this instead:

https://twitter.com/yetieater/status/1175456259476205570

I arrived at the restaurant, which had just begun filling up with patrons. After hanging around a bit, I determined that no one I’d reached out to decided to show up.

I briefly considered going back to my buddy’s place. I went into the nearby H&M and picked out a couple pairs of pants from the clearance rack.

Anna and her brother arrived. I was chatting with a new friend, while smoking one of his cigarettes, when I spotted her across the street. She sent me a message signaling she was going to leave, and at that point, I walked over.

We sat upstairs and enjoyed a good meal.

Afterwards, we walked around the area. I saw a man with a DSLR strapped to him, and learned that Nerd Con and Bully Con were taking place nearby.

Back at Brien’s that evening, Will Groening came. Brien and Will went to an event – I decided to turn in early so that I would be prepared for the next day

Sunday, September 22

I woke early, and walked the block, stretching in preparation for the shoot

I showed up early to the filming location, and grabbed some fruit to eat from the breakfast area.

Alvin Tan showed up – I recognized him immediately. We went up to the room together, and he ran me through the day’s events.

Next, our cameraman, Slamdogfilms, arrived

Finally, Karla Kush came in with a little wheeled suitcase containing some wardrobe items

The cameraman filmed her as she took a shower

At 1:23PM, I recorded a video using my phone while she acted

Prior to the shoot, I’d done some research on Karla Kush to learn her likes and dislikes. It was important to me that my first scene be a success.

Alvin busted

I enjoyed spending time with Karla Kush one on one, but I kept getting distracted by the fact we were running up against the clock.

We took a group photo after the shoot.

Alvin offered that he could drive me someplace if I needed, but I decided I’d hang around the hotel given I had nowhere else I needed to be.

I smoked the cigarette I brought with me, and bummed one off of Johnny, a guest at the hotel who was also visiting from Houston. I went to the store with Johnny, where he picked up a bottle of vodka and some orange juice. We drank together at his hotel room ahead of the cocktail reception offered by the hotel. I wound up crashing on the couch. When I woke up, there was Chinese food. I had some, and went on my way

Monday, September 23

I hung out with Phantaci. We went to the LA Arboretum after getting some poke and tea

Tuesday, September 24

I grabbed all my gear and hit up Santa Monica:

On the plane at 7:30PM for NK326 back home

EXXXOTICA Miami 2024

My first EXXXOTICA

I set out for MIA aboard AA324 on June 29

After arriving at MIA, I headed to the Turkish Airlines lounge to wait for Austin Xzandros to arrive. I paused to take a photo of some wall art when June Long saw me. We took a photo together

I settled into the Turkish Airlines lounge and enjoyed a couple drinks. After Austin landed, I joined him in selecting a rental car

We headed to the DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel Miami Airport & Convention Center, where we checked in

At the hotel lobby, we met Mars

Outside by the smokers station, I met Bobby Jean. I bummed a smoke off of him. I also met Lauren Phillips

Austin and I headed off to grab a bite to eat, finishing our meal at 1:10PM

I rode with Austin to the afterparty at MODE, where I had fun. It was too much for some, but with my earplugs, I happily availed myself of the open bar and bumping bass

I joined letsgethazy, sexyscienceteacher, Lushiana and went to Miami Velvet, but the high price of admission had us return to the hotel, where Lushiana decided to call it a night. The rest of us hopped the fence to the pool. I wore my new neon bathing suit.

We got kicked out of the pool area, and went up to letsgethazy’s room. Samantha Hayes wanted pizza. We went to Rey’s Pizza, open 24/7. I ordered a Cubano that was nothing to write home about. Timestamp on receipt was 4:53:34AM, timestamp of the sandwich photo 4:55:35AM.

Sunday, June 30

I had a coffee and ate the hotel check-in cookie

I set up next to the Hayes

I looked over to see Samantha Hayes sucking on a lollipop held by Shawn Hayes

I recorded a sequence of Samantha Hayes with the lollipop, now held by me, while Shawn Hayes held her ponytail. One of the attendees walking by the booth (TS shirt) complimented us, sharing that he’d been shooting scenes for 35 years, but that what he witnessed was among the sexiest things he’d seen in a long time. I thanked him, and kept the camera rolling. I admit, it was very exciting for me, too 🤭

Attended the dinner at R House Wynwood. I sat next to Grey Desire on the bus ride to dinner

Sat next to Lushiana at dinner

Sat next to Lushiana on the ride back to the hotel

I was pretty lit

Photos with Drizzy 12:34:19AM

Monday, July 1

Rolled a video at 8:50:56AM

I collaborated with Samantha Hayes. Shawn Hayes ran cameras. Live-streamed and recorded.

Rode the shuttle over to MIA. Dreads Way and Lyric Sky were also aboard. I invited them to join me at the Turkish Airlines lounge

Dreads Way joined me at Turkish Airlines lounge after Lyric Sky boarded her flight. We had a drink together, took a photo, and I dashed for my gate
