In which my married friend gets a crush on my gay older brother

Tuesday, May 27th, 2008

Remember when you were in junior high and you started to realize that your best friend’s older brother was a hottie? (Or like my sister used to say “a hottie, hottie with a naughty body”.) He would come home from a day spent at the high school, all dressed to kill in his [...]
