Uncle Mikey time, It's Uncle Mikey time, it'll be just fine,
He'll provide a real good time." OK-so, I guess I am having back
flashes of Romper Room, and if you got that reference, you just aged
yourself. So, another week in the life of the fairest fairy you shall
ever have the honor of knowing, yours truly, Uncle Mikey man of town
and season.
Speaking of season, am I the only one already sick of the Christmas
music? I mean come on, one more carol and I will not be held
accountable for my actions. There is a reindeer somewhere in danger of
a dose of Christmas rage if they insist on playing that music around
the clock. Uncle spent most of the week with his dear Ben, man of pool
cleaning. Hey, don't knock it till you try it. They do not just send
these men untrained, they know how to provide one service. I however
grew tired quickly, as it takes a man of substance to hold my interest
longer than a brief time at best. So, setting him back into the wild to
find and conquer, was for the best.
Well, enough about the drama that is my life, allow us to see what is
going on out there in the world of Gay life. This week has brought
Uncle some serious issues, lets begin.
Dear Uncle Mikey,
I am hosting my first ever Christmas feast for my partners and my
family and friends. I am so nervous as this is my first real dinner
party and I want everything to be perfect. I have a couple of people
that worry me about their interactions with the others at the party.
Any advise for a young Martha wannabe?
Fretting over the holiday in Ma
Dearest Holiday,
Kitten, have you lucked out. Uncle is famous for his dinner parties. A
couple of tips here. First, seating is a must to avoid the very issue
of some ungrateful party pooper spoiling your festive occasion. This
will ensure that you control where they sit and who they will have the
chance to offend, and spend their hopefully brief time. Most times
these people weed themselves out early allowing the rest of the evening
to be drama free. Second to only seating, atmosphere. Set the mood of
the event with soft candle light and background music. And third,
decor of course. Please tell Uncle you are using linen, as anything
else is not fit for your table. Following Uncles three golden rules for
the successful dinner party, should allow you to complete the evening
while imprisoning your guest. Seating, atmosphere, and decor. The rest
will fall into place. Allow the creativity to flow young queen.
Smooches Uncle Mikey
As I used to tell a very good friend of mine, when she would throw her
dinner parties. I would say "Jackie, allow the force of creative
thought to come from within." I taught her all she knows. I am proud to
say she became famous for her creative decorative creations. The
dresses however was all her. I never did understand the theme behind
that pink dress she wore. She looked like a pink tootsie roll.
Uncle Mikey
I have a dear friend that I am sure is in some kind of trouble, He has
not been himself for a while. When I ask he insist it is nothing while
remaining at arms length. I am worried but do not know what to do for
him. He has pulled away from most of our group, and keeps to himself.
I worry as he has no family because they disowned him, and at times he
seems like he is fighting with his identity. Should I just leave it
alone or keep trying to get it out of him?
Concerned
Dear concerned:
Allow your friend space while the presence of support is there. When he
is ready he will seek you out. As long as you have given him your offer
of friendship and support, you have done all you can do. It is up to
him, when he is comfortable to allow you in. You may want to keep an
ever present eye on him, as he sounds as if he is suffering from
depression. Depression can be a temporary affliction however, sometimes
it may also become a long term problem. Suggesting he seeks counseling
may be appropriate. It can be difficult for young people to find
themselves being disowned by their family, bringing guilt on over their
sexual orientation. Be patient with your friend, and of course stick by
him through this troubled time.

Dear Uncle,
I am 28 years old. My best friend tells me that I have a problem, but I
don't see it that way. I have a very high sexual drive. I can easily
go two three times a day. It seems like it is never enough, as I am
ready all the time. Even after doing the deed I am ready ten minutes
later for another go. This has been a problem in the since that I have
not been able to find someone who could keep up with me. My ex
boyfriend called me a machine and said that I was addicted to sex, and
couldn't have a relationship. I like sex, what's the big deal?

Dear Ready:
How do you feel about travel? OK-that was wrong. Uncle's mind was
wondering there for a minute. First Kitten, a high sexual appetite can
be healthy as long as it is not controlling you. A couple of quick
questions you need to ask yourself here. Does your sexual drives
desires cause you to find yourself in dangerous situations? Do you
neglect other areas in your life for sexual encounters? There is a fine
line between being sexually driven in a healthy manor and being
addicted to sex. It is important to remain in control of your desires
and hopefully find a man that can keep up with you. You are not as
alone as you would think. Some men have very high drives while others
have lower ones. As long as you are in control of your actions and do
not allow this drive to control you, than all will be fine. Of course
you know it is important and critical that you play safe darling. So be
the sexual explosion you are, just remain in control of that tool of
yours.
Smooches Uncle
Kittens, there is nothing wrong with a high sexual drive, as long as
you are not becoming unhealthy or unsafe in your actions. If you have
to quit your job as it is getting in your way of playtime, than there
is an issue. Also if you are unable to maintain a relationship because
only of your sexual desires, than you may want to inventory your
priorities. You know my third husband was like that. That man wore me
out. I used to walk away from the bedroom on tip toe, afraid I would
wake the monster in his pants. The 70's are a blur really, as he
kept Uncle busy. Cher rest his soul. That man would hear the wind blow
and than he felt he had to follow suit.
Whew...Uncle needs a drink. I found a heavenly concoction to replace my
martini Kittens, and have to share. It is simply called a Blue
Kamikaze. All Uncle can say is de-lic-ious. An explosion of taste
within a colorful presentation. I recommend trying one. Remember it is
a blue, as there are several colors.
OK Kittens, some notes of interest before I go. Uncle has a surprise
for all of his wonderful Kittens out there. Next week Uncle has two
surprises for his Kittens. First Uncle will be sharing a favorite
traditional holiday story (reworked Uncle style) beside the fireplace.
Also Uncle is going to help with the burden of Holiday shopping. You do
not want to miss that, Uncle has a black belt in shopping Kittens. I
would love to hear what is on all of your minds this holiday season.
Share your wish list with Uncle and your items of desire might make my
top five got to have items. Mr. Tiddles is going to have a wonderful
Christmas as Uncle loves his Mr. Tiddles.
Well, it's time to say good-bye once more. So remember Kittens, as the
song says;
Save a horse-Ride a cowboy! You know Uncle is an animal activist...
Smooches Uncle Mikey and Tiddles too...
