BAD DECISIONS WERE MADE

It was still too early in the season for cargo shorts, and I regretted my choice. A cold breeze from the North Sea reminded me of the one passage from the guide book which stuck in my head: "the earliest inhabitants of these shores grew fins and developed the ability to mimic seaweed." The ancient kingdom of Cumbria in northern England, on the coast.
Which is where the settlers of Arkham, Massachusetts, came from.

In point of fact, I never wear cargo shorts. That's more Jeff's style, but the weather in Marin has so far not been warm enough to let him do so. And he shouldn't. Judicious men, myself included, dread him showing off his misshapen milk bottle whites. Last night on the way home I saw a woman crossing the street with legs more appalling, quite grotesque.
If he wasn't already remarried, she would have been a perfect mate.

Maybe I already mentioned that bloodpressure medication (three types, but it was probably the Amlodipine Besylate) sometimes cause intensely odd dreams.

Evenso, I hope Jeff has given up on shorts.
Late Spring early Summer in San Francisco is marked by cold weather. Fog, biting winds in the afternoon, grim and chilly mornings. One is likely to see Euro tourists shivering in certain areas, wondering what went wrong. Surely California is sunny all year round? Sorry, meine damen und herren, but no. You're thinking of Baywatch. Different place. Not this bay.

That teevee show and many others were shot somewhere else.

Somebody really should tell Jeff.

Ghastly ugly icky damned well repulsive legs. He's retired. He should dress with more dignity, rather than swanning around in goober rags making everyone sick. Some old men have body parts that are the stuff of nightmares.

His wife probably sends him outside when he's dressed like that to scare the neighbors.
Jeffiepoo cục cưng, go play in traffic, người yêu.
Mosquito bait.



The caffeine had worn off before nine, so I went to bed, and slept fitfully. There are spots on both legs which are tinglesome after a full day on my feet, and there is twitching. Probably shouldn't have had that bowl of icecream and followed it with barfi either. Saffron barfi. Absolutely delicious!
