Random Stargazing II

Random Stargazing II

Two nights after GG “Why is this night different from all other nights?” Woo ran into someone from Queer as Folk, so did I! Tonight, CanadaGirl and I were walking down Avenue A, on the way from Phoenix to Wonderbar, and we saw Randy Harrison, a.k.a. Justin. Just like ClosetBoy did last month in Toronto! He walked past us with three or four adolescent-looking girls. I didn’t even realize it until CanadaGirl pointed it out to me. So I turned around and saw the back of this short blond guy. “No,” I said to her. “Are you sure?” So of course I had to change our plans and walk back, quickly, to get closer and see if it really was him. We surreptitiously caught up with them while they waited at a “Don’t Walk” sign (definitely not New Yorkers), and I nonchalantly glanced over, and yup, it was Justin.

CanadaGirl and I went into Starlight, and Justin and his entourage got on some line at the place next door, where there must have been some band playing. Starlight was practically empty, so we left and started walking back toward Wonderbar, and we realized that they had left the line and were walking back in the same direction we were. But eventually we lost them. Oh, well.
