Disney World Part 6

Sorry boys, between a new shoot, Lady Gaga concert, a calendar shoot, discovering some shopping secrets about Mason Wyler (Don't leave your old mail laying around), having game nights with the boys, trying to figure things out with Cameron Marshall, laundry, cleaning, and trying to sleep between all of the above I haven't been much in the blogging state of mind. So the last day of Disney, finally.








So we went to Animal Kingdom, the park Logan used to work in so he was thrilled. We had to be at the finding Nemo show early because we were going to see our new friend Robert perform! He was so good! It was really exciting to see him in his element! And after the show he was able to get us a meet in greet with the cast. (Why is this news. IT NEVER HAPPENS THAT’S WHY!) So after this we went on the coolest roller coaster at Disney Expedition Everest! It was amazing if you haven't been on it I strongly encourage a trip up the forbidden mountain. We were VIPed into Festival of the Lion King (This triggers a later blog) and we got to get photos with the cast! (Another thing no one gets!) We did all the rides, Dinosaur, The Safari, The Carnival Rides. It was a blast, except everyone but Logan and Van were not feeling too hot. Give me break I had just passed a Kidney Stone and poor Robert was dehydrated and losing his lunch!






We spent the majority of the rest of the day resting and getting ready to go out to Club Pulse (Minus Logan who ended up meeting up with some of his Florida friends.) Pulse was hopping and I made some amazing contacts there, so don't be surprised if you see my face on a poster to make a club appearance in Orlando soon. Also to all you Houston drag queens, the Orlando girls raise the bar! (Another blog for another time.)






I'm going to end Disney Blogs here though boys and get this blog back to normal. We ended up staying an extra day and just hit up the rides and shows we had not already seen. (Thanks again Robert for making this possible.) The drive home... Well... It was three sleeping boys and one driving boy, the most eventful thing that happened was horrible service at a KFC!






Have a Magical Day,

Disney World Part 5

Hey guys... Sorry for the delay, sometimes doing a whole lot of nothing makes you want to do a whole lot of nothing! But this is fitting because that's what today's Disney blog is about, our off day... It was supposed to be an easy day to rest... A vacation from vacation if you will. (Logan's idea.) Believe me though, we needed it. When the boys and I hit something, we hit it hard. (We exert more energy on vacations and trips than we do during the school/work week.) We were going to take the day to Laze around the water parks and catch some sun, but sadly it didn't work out due to money and we would have been limited on time. (I want to try a Disney water park so bad now.) Instead of the lounging in the parks we did a lot of lounging around the cabin until Logan suggested we look at some of the world class hotels and hit up the Disney Shopping district and make this our souvenir shopping day. But it worked out well because we got to spend the day with our wonderful new friend Robert! (Our other new buddy Emmett dropped in but was quickly beckoned away by real life.)




The day was pretty relaxed, most of us talked as we strolled the thousands of Mickey Mouse products while Van and Logan furiously were looking for keepsakes. We stayed a few hours before heading back the cabin. I rushed it along because I started to feel something funny in my side. It was a dull pain that would jab really hard every now and then.


That night was our big dinner at O'hana. Logan has been raving about this place for months. He claimed it was his favorite restaurant on the planet. Due to the description most of us didn't eat that day and were ready to be stuffed. So as we're napping and refreshing for dinner at nine I kept having to pee. (I noticed an urgency of my bladder at Downtown Disney and that I was peeing red and thought in the back of my mind it was a Kidney Stone since it seems to be a rite of passage in my family.) It worried me before, but now I was straight up pissing blood and my side hurt badly! I was determined to make it through this amazing dinner though. We get to the restaurant and I sent Logan and Van ahead, while Dash and I found a place to park. When they were inside Dash and I discussed worst case scenario if this problem gets worse. We met the boys inside and it just got of control painful. I was peeing dried blood, the urine stream was cloudy, and I was officially freaked out.


Why the hell didn't you go to the hospital you ask? Well, Logan was so excited for this dinner all week and I was determined to make sure he had a damn good time. Van and Logan walked around the hotel while we waited on our time to go up while I laid in the lounge and Dash hung back with me. The boys met us upstairs where we had run into Logan's old friend Joe who was joining us for dinner and I was informed that Logan was able to snag us the very sought after table with the fireworks view. My pain was getting worse, Logan and Van were getting more excited, and the dinner was sounding more awesome... I was going to make it through this dinner if I passed that stone at the table.


We're seated at a table with an amazing view. The castle is rising above the trees across the lake. Couples are singing with the host celebrating their engagement. Huge pineapples full of rum come to our table. Plate after plate of amazing looking Polynesian food is set on the table. (Its family style all you can eat.) I keep having to leave to pee. I come back and have some Lo-Mein and two pork dumplings. I was so excited for the main course because if the starters were this good... Oh man... The boys are laughing and smiling. The food smells amazing. The server comes to our table with two skewers one with plump fat shrimp the size of your fingers, one with tender steak cutlets he puts it on our plates. I have to pee. I go downstairs to pee. Blood. Pain. Stabbing side pains. Dinner was ruined for me.


When I got to the table it broke my heart. A.) I would not get to enjoy this amazing dinner with friends. B.) Van and Logan were so happy laughing and drinking, I couldn't pull them away. Dash saw the pain in my eyes and knew it was time to go. All the boys were ready to take me to hospital (I had gotten directions earlier, that whole worst case scenario.) but I asked them (Joe, Van, and Logan) to stay and enjoy their meal because I know what it meant to them and as much as I know I can be a Me Centered I wanted them to have a carefree night and the ER is no place for that.


Dash and I aren't from Orlando, so in our made painfilled rush to find some medical help and 911 calls we got a bit lost. We were calling Joe to navigate for us form O'hana, we had the 911 lady telling us to pull over the side of the road so she could locate us (not what you want to when passing a stone) and the iPhone getting all loopy. All I have to say is, Longest... Ride... Of... My... Life...


We ended up at Celebration hospital. The place is a resort. I kid you not, it was just as nice as our cabins. We check in and go through all the tests. Pee in a cup. Pulse. Temperature. Then we're forgotten about... The nurse didn't even realize my cup of pee was sitting next to her. If you've been in an emergency room you know it’s done by their idea of who needs it most. So, dumb ass I dropped grease on my foot went before and a child that was shivering so severely it broke my heart. In my time in the waiting room, (The whole 4 hours of it) I learned that Orlando Florida is in what is called the Kidney Stone belt and almost everyone in that room had a Kidney Stone to pass. Weird? Well think about it, rides jostling you around, you're not hydrated, you're not eating a balanced meal so it makes sense. I was a victim of circumstance.


Logan, Van, and Joe show up to keep me company. Though Logan and Van's energy level did not match mine. (The photos of the back of my head are me in pain and Logan taking pictures.) "For your blog! For your blog." Thanks brother.... Our names were called right as Aiden Ash showed up at the hospital to hang out with us. That was a let down because we were seconds away from being a hospital party. I didn't see the point of the boys waiting in the lobby while I sat in the back rooms so I bid them good night and went in. Cat scans, IVs... Celebration Hospital was going to make a buck off of me. I was in the room with a Doctor and Nurse who were at Disney on vacation as well (Remember this detail) and they were both in there for Kidney stones! It was crazy. Loooooong story short of the back room was I passed the stone. It hurt. I was tired. I was hungry. I was disappointed and I just wanted this day over with.


Dash took me home to find Robert, Van, and Aiden watching ENCHANTED and Logan asleep in the wall bed and he kept mumbling something about shutting up. My easy day... Was harder than it should have been but that clock said 3 am so I said good night.






Have a Magical Day,

Disney World Part 4

If there is one place I’m comfortable it is up on stage with the spotlights on me. That is why I loved Disney’s Hollywood Studios! The place is amazing! If you haven’t been it is like you stepped onto a Hollywood back lot and you’re the star! (Wow, that sounds like I’m writing the copy for a Disney ad!) Some of the best thrill rides at the whole resort are in this park. (Keep in mind I said some, not all.) The Tower of Terror drops you thirteen floors, and when you’re gymnast who is incredibly flexible you can’t help but contort yourself into all kinds of shapes as you free fall though the air. There is also the Rocking Roller Coaster, (The Aerosmith coaster) that takes you from 0 – 60 in mere seconds, the photos on this one were priceless! Everyone’s faces were peeled back with their lips flapping. (These were another part of the Wescott charm walking us onto rides.)




A fan of mine was able to set up some photos that most people are not able to get with characters. So I’m pretty excited about a few of these. Though there was a particularly interesting photo we took this day. It was a photo of Alejandro aiming a “T-Bomb” at me. What makes this so funny is that later that night the boys and I went to the Parliament House (basically a club/hotel/bath house/ disease fest in Orlando) and shook our asses. Something snapped inside Alejandro and he tore into me. I honestly don’t know what I did to deserve the royal ass ripping he was giving me but he would not let up. Logan and his ex were passed out in the middle of the car, we were lost in Orlando and I had no where to go, then in the back here is Alejandro stirring the shit pot about things that had no business being brought up on our vacation. When I refused to give into his games he started to tell me how stupid I made him, that my very presence sucked his brain power out of his ears. I asked him what the nearest airport was back to Houston and got my wish. Alejandro was gone the next day. As far as I’m concerned… Alejandro Monte Carlo is dead to me. I’ll accept of things in my life but I will not accept being placed beneath someone because they feel they are superior to me, and I will not be told I am stupid. He’s gone. It is not a friendship I feel is worth fighting for because the “T-Bombs” have become far too frequent and are starting to make no damn sense. Voldemort you may have your follower back.

Disney World Part 3

On the second day of Disney my true love gave to me, an Epcot drinking spree! Hey guys, welcome back to my Disney trip blog scrapbook. It was the day of Epcot and I was really excited to go to Future World then try different drinks from around the world. When we first got to Epcot we made a bee line to Soarin’ Over California where we met up with this guy Robert, who ended up being someone we spent every day with that week. It’s almost funny that he was so quiet the first day we met him but the rest of the week was a full time chatter box/entertainment. Though there was a divide in the day, half of us wanted to enjoy the rides and shows, while the other half wanted to drink themselves into oblivion. Logan, our unofficial Disney tour guide mapped out our route so we had time to do everything. Though, again, my charms got us onto every ride though the backdoor so we were able to save lots of time. (I’m really not bragging, it boggled my mind as well!) In Future World we met up with Logan’s old fuck buddy/crush and our new friend from the Magic Kingdom, thus bringing us from a gaggle of gays to a flock of fairies. If you haven’t been to Epcot it is an experience! With everything from the GM Test Track to drinking exotic drinks from around the world, it is down the house fantastic.




There was a dark side to the day though… Some boys can not hold their tongues when they are pumped full of liquor. I could see though the day that there was a black storm cloud brewing. Logan, had to have some alone time and I could see the glazing over of Alejandro’s eyes as he prepared to drop what he has dubbed the “T-Bombs”. ( A T-Bomb is the supposed grouping of “truths” that Alejandro has collected about me to use against me anytime (every time) he gets drunk.) So the day was going swimmingly until we were riding the Malestrom in Norway and Alejandro decided it was time for him to drop his “T-Bomb”. Apparently he felt I was being inappropriate with a guy, when I am “talking” to another guy. The real “T-Bomb” should have been aimed in his direction and the truth of the matter was the guy we were hanging out with that he had his eyes on was giving me attention and not him. So a scene was made on the ride and everything went down hill from there. During the fireworks which should have been fantastic Logan’s ex had a break down, Logan had a break down, and Alejandro spent the twenty minutes trying to get in my face about things which he had no idea of what he was speaking. A hot mess day… A hot mess day…

Disney World Part 2

Well it’s over. Am I sad? Of course I am. This was most defiantly the trip of a lifetime for me. I mean sure I’ve been to Disney World before but the experience is different every time you go depending on who you’re going with. So when you go with a gaggle of gays of course the trip is going to be - - - excuse my stereotype, but nothing less than fabulous! Five gay guys in the middle of the woods in a cabin besides being the plot for a really bad horror flick for the HERE! network you can imagine it was quite redonkulous.




For those of you who think Disney World is a place for kids and family you’re sorely mistaken. Our day began with a breakfast at Park Fare a turn of the century meal, complete with strawberry soup. Tigger, Pooh, Mary Poppins, The Mad Hatter and Alice came to kick off our week. Tigger had a thing for us though, he wanted kiss after kiss and hug after hug from us. Though, Van was more of the Mad Hatter’s taste, he wouldn’t leave our table until Logan and Van played croquet with him. (They were his human croquet balls!) If you’re going to the parks anytime soon start your week off at Park Fare, I promise you won’t let down. After that we ‘celebrated’ our friendships and we hit it hard! Our first day in the actual park we met up with Logan’s Ex-Boyfriend and played in the Magic Kingdom for fifteen hours straight. We didn’t leave that park until three in the morning! What does one do for fifteen hours in a theme park? Every single ride, show, and parade they have to offer. There is a parade called Move It, Shake It, Celebrate It! where the characters come out on large presents and turn spokes of the park into a dance party. Since it was our first day it was our first exposure to the pixie dust and it took some coaxing to get us out into the streets shaking “tail feathers”, but once we did the professional photographers came over and began to snap photos of us left and right. We were the stars of the parade. (It may sound egotistical but it’s true.)


It was surprisingly slow for a July at Disney World, (Though slow at Disney World is 40,000 guests instead of 50,000) and the wait times were really low. Though, again this is going to make me sound egotistical but I charmed my way onto every ride through the backdoor entrances. I don’t know what it is I do but I just talk and people want to help me out! As much as I’d like to say it is my dashing good looks, who doesn’t like a gaggle of gays who are just happy to be alive? One of the highlights of the week was Logan asking a Jungle Cruise skipper if he knew his old co-worker, after saying he did Logan asked the girl for the Jungle Cruise skipper’s number and they started to text. (Pretty creeper huh? While he agreed, he actually ended up hanging out with us everyday on our vacation and I’m glad we made a new friend!) By the time the ten o’clock fireworks came we were dragging and our feet hurt like all get out but we pressed on and forced ourselves to keep going. How did we end the night? Riding Space Mountain five times in a row of course! Our first day was nothing short of magical.






Have A Magical Day,

Disney World Part 1

So the WiFi is like 10 dollars a day here at Disney's Fort Wilderness so I probably won't update as often as I would like. There is no point in paying every day for the internet when I'm only going to use it a few hours a day. Scratch that, a few minutes a day.


The road trip was good. I drove most of the sixteen hours while the boys slipped in and out of consciousness. If you've ever driven from Houston to Orlando you know you take Interstate 10 the entire way and there is a whole lot of nothing... Unless of course the unleveled roads of Louisiana thrill you. I listened to every song the Glee cast has put out this year, for those of you who don't know it’s around a hundred... We listened to every Gaga remix known to man. Oh, and I learned that truckers seem to always drink and drive. (If you're a trucker I need you to explain that to me.) We arrived in Orlando around noon and checked into the cutest cabin on the face of the planet! I'm serious our hotel is a camp site with lots of adorable cabins! It’s a living room and dining room and a bed room with multiple beds shoot the bathroom is really impressive for being a hotel bathroom as well. It's a pretty sweet setup. Not really much to report today, just went to the outlet malls and spent way too much money... Then we napped. Though we did get to meet up with Aiden Ash! I'm super excited to see him! (If you followed WylerNation at all you'll know we were all roommates at one point.) Though I can tell that Logan, his ex, is having a hard time seeing him, but what do you do to help someone in a situation like that? But we got to explore the property some and watch fireworks from on top of the Contemporary Resort. Pretty cool! I can't wait until tomorrow, we have breakfast with Mary Poppins then we are off to the Magic Kingdom! I can't wait!






Have a Magical Day,

All American Boy!!

I purposely didn't post this blog on the Fourth of July for the very reason that I am a damn proud American. While I love celebrating my American heritage and who we are as a country on the 4th I decided that I wanted to profess my love for America on just any regular day and not use the day that the flag companies make the most money. Don't get me wrong I love the surge of patriotism, the fireworks, and the shirtless men in the grassy knoll dripping in sweat but I think everyday should be a day we thank our maker for making us American. I live in a country where I am free to be a homosexual. I live in a country where I am free to do pornography. I live in a country where I am free to disagree with my government. And finally I live in a country that created the Flesh Jack. But in all seriousness, I love being an American boy. As corny as it sounds, my heart fills with pride when I see an American flag. The flag is more than a few pieces of cloth stitched together, it is a symbol of my freedom, my heritage, and my future.




My fourth was spent with the boys at the bars... I was stripping. Yes, I saw fireworks. No, I didn't have a BBQ. But, I had to "work" and make some money for my trip. What trip you ask? Well, Logan, Dash, Alejandro, Van, and I are setting off to Walt Disney World tomorrow to meet up with my friend Aiden Ash. I'm looking forward to seeing him after a six month hiatus. I'm also really looking forward to going to the parks again! It's been years! Logan used to work at Disney so he knows some people who are going to help make our trip, "Extra Magical". But if any of you boys are WDW Cast Members let me know via Twitter (PORTERWESCOTTXX) or E-Mail (Porter.Wescott@Gmail.com) and maybe we can meet up and you enhance our trip! I plan to try to flood the blog with my Disney Vacation photos every night but no promises. (Logan says I'll probably be too exhausted with the itinerary he has planned out. CALM DOWN BOY IT IS A VACATION.) The car ride will either be amazing or awful, it all really depends on if everyone is on their best behavior or not. And they better be... I think I'm going have a bag for drama and everyone must put their drama in the bag and I'll throw into the Gulf... Oh that reminds me....
