My brother wanted to celebrate a housewarming party in his 20 qm2 apartment. At 2 a.m. I reminded him of the fact, that I had to get up at 7. And then things went real worse! I ended up with puffy eyes, no sleep, my luggage and Salem on the exhibition doesn't know where to sleep the upcoming three days. Just to earn 600 € to survive the next month. And I tell you Salem didn't like it being in his cat case among all the decoration stuff! A tamil taxi driver and some good friends helped us in the end. Apart from the family trouble my cat and I found us in, we had a great show with the Ambiente in Frankfurt. Valentine's Day , my most hated day in the year, I spend with the Graffiti artist Bomber at the stunning musical "Hedwig and the Angry Inch" (www.hedwigandtheangryinch.de). The rock musical is about Hedwig who had undergone a sex reversal that worked out a bit different. On the aftershow party we had a chat with Nigel Francis (Hedwig/Tommy Gnosis) and with a few queer but interesting fellows. Relaxing After - Exhibiton -Days with lovely people ( thanx Conny , thanx Helge for everything) made Salem and me forget our grief for a few days. Good food, thrilling Hollywood movies except "Fastfood Nation" , good music, Salem's first contact with cat ladies and friends that you can trust in times of need, made Frankfurt a great experience. If only I could give some love like this to people in our area, maybe they would be kind to me to... Kisses Rejay
