I cannot believe how hot and humid it is in my apartment. It's so hot and wet, the ants are fainting. I just took a shower to DRY OFF. I mean, what's going on here? L.A. never used to get like this. Hot, yes, but never this humid. Some have posited that it's our Sultry friends from the South bringing all this swelter up here. I, for one, do not believe in Hispanic Humidity. There's no such thing as "moisture from Michoacan." I'm sorry, but the "Minute Men" (probably more an indication of their sexual prowess than their pale emulation of our forefathers' plucky militia) can go fuck themselves. Let these people in!So, here I am at 4 AM. Can't sleep. I have the window open and my fan blazing. I'm hearkening back to a short trip I took to the Long Beach Aquarium a few weeks ago WHEN IT WAS COOLER, and envying what I remember of the fish I saw there. They seemed so at peace, so, um, so comfortable. It must be nice to be a fish, just kinda lazing around in water. No ambulance noise, no worries of terrorism, no Bush family. I have a tank full of guppies. They're nice. All they do is eat and swim and fuck. Just think if your life were about eating and swimming and, oh, you know. Maybe I'll become a fish when I grow up.I'm a good guy. I'm tall, 30s, real nice looking (really) and well-bred - whatever that means. People have told me I have something of a "regal bearing," so I guess that's a compliment. I'm single, Caucasian and male and, yes, I am a writer. I like to laugh. My relationship desires at present are as follows: I'm looking for someone to love and to love me in return. I'm not QUITE ready to dive headlong into a relationship (out of a long-termer recently) and, indeed, I just split with someone new who I really liked as she's looking for it all and I simply cannot give it to her at this time. Nope, I'm just looking for a female-person-thing with whom to hang: someone sweet and kind and ready to give me my space until I'm ready to make a plan. Do not be misled, I am perfectly capable of committing. Seems like I am ALWAYS in a relationship, except when I am not. Hang on, another ant just fainted...
