The Search for Love in Manhattan

August 07, 2003

I hope you'll accept my apologies for not blogging for the last few days. This sitting in the sun by the pool with sunglasses on is really hard work, let me tell you.

I'll try and do better from now on, but I can't promise anything. This sitting in the sun by the pool with sunglasses on is really hard work, let me tell you.

Missed you.
Thanks a bunch. Stuck working in London on the hottest day EVER recorded and the air conditioning has just packed up. Off to the pub for a pint.
Do you need another collaborator? Have my own sunglasses's cleaning kit

I hate Los Angeles, as you know. But then, I don't drive and I wear only black.

Your being there has probably raised the collective IQ noticeably.

And I'm sorry things didn't work out with the a.p. but now you can be bottom friends and go get pedicures together.

And the blogathon people haven't hectored me for my money yet, so you might want to get on that if you ever get out of the pool. I hope you're floating with an umbrella drink.

Kiss kiss!

I really admire the effort you're putting into this pool gig. It must be so tough.

Likely story. My informants tell me you are actually studying lichen samples in the tundras of Siberia. A+ for effort, though.

Convivia, I'm working on the blogathon people. MAK, if only you had kept silent, you'd have been allowed to live. It's been nice knowing you. Jason, I haven't been able to read your comment yet, as I've been spending all my time in the pool.

As a native Californian, I know that multi-tasking while sitting by the pool with sunglasses is an acquired skill. Be patient and in time you will be amazed at how much can be accomplished while sitting by the pool with sunglasses on.

I suggest that you start slowly, and work your way up to the more dificult tasks like blogging. Perhaps you can start by offering to apply sunscreen on an attractive companion sitting by the pool with sunglasses on. It may not help you write more often, but writing often is way over-rated.

How hard is it? (ba-dum-dum!)

Do I get to see the photos of you by the pool? I've just put photos up at my blog and I even mentioned California!
