Is there such thing as a good Christmas request? 

Yes, there is. Are you always so grumpy?

[jesshevans]

ladyqbray‌:

Exactly. The season for guilt free indulgence, for sure. 

Your mother sounds adorable. I’m surprised any of those mugs have made it what with having 8 kids running around. 

That is a pretty good description of the Christmas holidays.... and I love it.

She’s got both fancy mugs and mugs she wouldn’t go Kill Bill for. I prefer the latter. Too much responsibility with the collective ones. One of my brothers broke one of them, like, five years ago... she still shades him.

So I take it a love connection won’t be happening anytime soon?

No, probably not.

Listen up The Peacock Room is hosting it’s first (and soon to be annual) dinner and drag holiday party! Cover includes dinner, cash bar and drag show for anyone 18+ followed by a night of dancing you’ll be sure to forget so come on down and meet the love of your life on the dance floor and don’t be afraid to break up twenty minuets after you’ve met because we’ve got plenty to keep you busy all night!

[jesshevans]

Dinner? I’ll be there.

[jesshevans]

I may have one or two tucked away somewhere. Purely for aesthetic purposes. Otherwise I take my eggnog in a nice hearty cup. Damn the calories.

That’s true. It’s Christmas, so who cares? The tiny mugs are kind of cute though. My mama has, like, an entire collection.

[ladyqbray]

Less than 10 days before Christmas and chugging along with holiday plans. Meaning Quinn is making eggnog tonight and lots of it. Will the brandy actually make it into the mixture? It’s truly anyone’s guess. 

[jesshevans]

Just one week tomorrow! Do you have those cute little eggnog mugs too?

[jesshevans]

madmaxanders‌:

Ah shit, my bad. I usually perform in Times Square. Probably the most traffic.

I’ll be there, maybe tomorrow. Expect some good Christmas requests.

[jesshevans]

ladyqbray‌:

Eight.

A regular Brady Bunch crew then. Sounds…..chaotic? 

That’s a fair reference. I guess so, but most families seem to be chaotic in one way or another. My family’s all very close, so it’s always been a good chaos? If that’s a thing.

[jesshevans]

madmaxanders‌:

Rock, mostly. That’s my main genre. 

I mean, like... your physical location. You’re a street musician, right? I’ll keep the genre in mind though. I like rock too.

[jesshevans]

asherclarington‌:

Ah. I guess that’s a little less romantic.

He is cute. But the drink was gross, so I can’t forgive him for that.

[jesshevans]

sebastiansmythenyc‌:

It’s the only one that matters.

Maybe the one you think is the hottest one isn’t the one I think is the hottest twin.

[jesshevans]

ladyqbray‌:

Maybe not. 

But the looks on their faces would be well worth it. 

This is true. It might’ve been more peaceful in a way too. Because it always ended up with all of us playing our music really, really loudly... I’ve got eight siblings.

[jesshevans]

allcns‌:

You know… I’ve seen several parodies, but not the actual film. Is it one of your go-to’s?

Oh, yeah. It definitely is. I’ve watched it every Christmas for as long as I can remember... probably because it’s one of my mother’s favorites.

[jesshevans]

madmaxanders‌:

As long as I can play it, and I can play most songs by ear. If I haven’t heard it before you might need to pull up a video or something.    

I’ve got a few suggestions. Where do you usually play?

[jesshevans]

madmaxanders‌:

Toss a fiver in my guitar case and I’ll perform whatever song you want. Catch me around sometime and maybe you’ll hear me do it. 

Any song?

[jesshevans]

ladyqbray‌:

Well isn’t that an idea. I, personally, used to destroy my siblings boomboxes when they were blasting the undesirable tunes. So this is a level of petty that I can relate to. 

That is also one way to do it. I’m not sure I would’ve survived doing that, though.

Someone’s gotta make sure you live to pay your portion of the rent at the end of the month, right?

Why does it sound like the dude has a crush on you? Did he sign it with little x’s and o’s?

That is true.

I wouldn’t say that. It was written on the back of an old receipt.
