Lest you think BGM is all bitter frowns, no happy grins, I received this adorable photo from him last night (that’s him on the left, duh), along with this message:
“So, Moneypenny was in LA for both fun and business… So, naturally, she hit up Bittergaymark on the FB. Soon, the two DWers were grabbing a long lunch at The Hollywood Corner where they bonded over their mutual loves of iced tea, Eames fiberglass chairs, and all things mid-century modern! It was a lovely afternoon — and such fun to FINALLY! meet another real LIVE DWer out in the REAL world! Come to LA, everybody! Bittergaymark will track you down to gossip about art, design, and the world of Hollywood!”
Now, where’s Moneypenny with her version? I want to know if BGM is really as sweet and docile in person as he seems on the internet (ha).

Woohoo!! Oh yes, I can personally attest that all of the above is true. We were still chatting even after I got home. Believe it or not, BGM is an awesome dude!!

Man, this is the cutest meet up picture in all the land. But I’m not jealous, not one bit, nope nope nope. 😉
JK July 22, 2014, 2:02 pm
That´s because no one saw ours! Or the one of you with the hot gaucho 😉
Moneypenny July 22, 2014, 2:26 pm
I want to see a hot gaucho. (What’s a gaucho? My ignorance is showing. I just know it’s the UCSB mascot.)
JK July 22, 2014, 2:29 pm
Gaucho = argentinian cowboy 🙂
Moneypenny July 22, 2014, 2:24 pm
Aw, thanks AP! I think having cool glasses really helps too.
JK July 22, 2014, 2:01 pm
You 2 are adorable 🙂
Addie Pray July 22, 2014, 2:02 pm
ahem
JK July 22, 2014, 2:04 pm
You know you are the adorable-est
Addie Pray July 22, 2014, 2:11 pm
it doesn’t hurt to hear you say it from time to time. oh fun fact: a lot of english-speakers learning french translate that express to “du temps ‘au’ temps” (because “to” is “au” in French) but it’s actually “de temps ‘en’ temps.” I was so excited when I learned that. And there was your public french lesson service announcement.
JK July 22, 2014, 2:14 pm
In spanish its more like the french as well (de vez en cuando), but the translation would make no sense haha.
Moneypenny July 22, 2014, 2:20 pm
Aww, thanks JK! 🙂
veritek33 July 22, 2014, 2:30 pm

Great picture! Love the green jacket! 🙂 (is it a jacket? or a sweater, either way love the color)
HmC July 22, 2014, 2:36 pm
So cute! You super nice DWers are breaking down BGMs hard shell! 🙂
Le Pinch July 22, 2014, 3:06 pm

(in search of the perfect couch currently)
bittergaymark July 22, 2014, 6:32 pm
Nice… Lately, I am becoming so much of a fascist about MCM! Right now, I see the world in black and white. It’s either MCM taste or else it’s just plain BAD taste…

You guys are awesome. I love this.
Lily in NYC July 23, 2014, 12:56 pm
Well, there goes my theory that BGM is really a housebound old lady who lives in Peoria.
Lily in NYC July 23, 2014, 1:02 pm
I just figured out who BGM reminds me of – Michael C. Hall!
Addie Pray July 23, 2014, 1:17 pm
haha peoria!
Sue Jones July 24, 2014, 5:49 pm
Jealous!
Sue Jones July 24, 2014, 5:51 pm
So how do you all track each other down on FB? Aren’t we all anonymous here? I follow Wendy on FB but I don’t know who anybody is because we all have fake names here! Does one just put 2 and 2 together???
