Dennis and Jim's wedding in Ptown
As some folks may know, I went to a gay wedding in Ptown this past weekend for my Rhode Island pals Dennis and Jim (yes, they of the Court TV "Dennis and Jim and the Bad Dog" show). The weather as you can tell was spectacular, and the first series of this well-documented event and delightful event is now here at: http://www.kodakgallery.com/I.jsp?c=hkznxtj.5pd31psv&x=0&h=1&y=-keurt2&localeid=en_US
Here's my favorite picture of the blushing beargrooms and their JP:
Jim looks rapturous, or perhaps it the beer. Dennis just looked serenely blissful.
Here I am with the wedding florist's son Brandon, a tow truck/repo man who showed me all his tats.
Hung out a bit with Chris, Rick, and Chris, a bear triad living in the Providence area. We got to talk a bit about the triad experience, a subject that interests me more and more. That's the second Chris in the background. Cute, huh?
Stopped by Now Voyager, a Commercial Street bookstore where I read once in 2004, to buy Dennis the groom a copy of Ptown resident and friend Dennis Rhodes' excellent book of Cape-themed poetry, Entering Dennis.
The wedding Saturday morning seemed to go pretty smoothly. The wedding party was really the biggest thing happening in town that day.
On Saturday night, hanging out by myself at the A-House, I was wondering if I could pull off trying to pick up Andrew Sullivan if he happened to walk in without him recognizing meor letting on that I recognized him. We met once, on the street in Ptown briefly in 2000,while he was eating a slice and talking with someone else . . .
In any case I was enjoying a shot and a beer engaged in such idle speculation when sitting next to me near the fire the fellow on the next stool talking with a friend said hi. They were two doctors, and the one who said hi is a surgeon who noticed my parotid surgery and asked me about it.
While chatting with the doctors and telling them all about my husbear doctor, I noticed that Dennis Rhodes himself was sitting at the other end of the bar. Dennis, who knew both Roc and me when I met Rocco, attended our wedding, and I hadn't spoken with Dennis for two years after we had a bit of an argument. Granted I was inebriated, but he didn't act much better. In any case it didn't matter. I wanted to apologize and tell him I gave Dennis (the groom) his book as a wedding gift. When I went up to say hi, turns out, Dennis was talking to another doctor from elsewhere in New England! So we introduced this doctor to the other doctors, and then Dennis bought me a beer and we had a lovely reconciliation.
Ptown - like no place else!
