Detour has saw dust on the floor

1. So I guess this is not the gay
neighborhood I took up with or
to give in

1. If its not SF West Hollywood or Silverlake
(nor Portland or UBC of course)
then I guess its San Diego that
will help me out next winter.

11.30 To bed.
And remember I not great in clothes
no broad shoulders
not stocky in my tall frame.
So that another reaon to avoid W. Hollywood
or LA in general...

THU MAY 25 '89
7:15-------- B'fast atop Red Tower.
Yes there are lots of gorgeous men
around W. Hollywood but from this
vantage point in Silverlake, I accept
that I cannot live near them.
What would I do with them?
What would I do by myself?
OC was great because it was country
and I got to see that I wouldn't spend
time with people who live in L.A. It
just seems so tiresome & tasteless
although there is a sort of runabout, fun
carefree energy about it. But sustainability?
If I ever fear I've missed out in guy
life, I'm crazy because I've had lots
of experience, and more than most people.
ABQ & Chip, LA & OC, BBS & BSH, Seattle & Bob &
skiing & TTourists & Prons [?], etc....

SD in 85 didn't work since Bruce didn't
come visit me. If he had I'd have been
here less than frequently.
I don't want to make friends or go home
WITH ANYONE OUT OF TOWN UNLESS I
FEEL THEY COULD COME VISIT ME
IN SEATTLE. This on top of usual
physical & social req'ts

9:30 GOTC photograph Silverlake & its bars.
It's really quite a Castro.
To gym. Body Builders. Shoulders. Fine.
Just as I was finishing, I meet RANDY.
I was not looking for fun, but it found me.
Noted Parallel to Easton's & Jaime.
