moje pierwsze spotkanie z pacyfikiem. no, może nie tak spektakularne jak na polinezji, niemniej - rytualnego zamoczenia się dokonałem [pogoda była jak na los angeles obelżywa]. venice beach ma wszystko, co mieć powinno - surferów łapiących każdą dającą się ujeżdżać falę, ptactwo szukające pożywienia we wszystkim, co ocean wyrzuci, ratowników jak z serialu, no i zachód słońca.
the boys of summer have gone.

There are a number of things a woman can tell about a man who is roughly twenty-nine years old, sitting in the cab of a pickup truck at 3:37 in the afternoon on a weekday, facing the Pacific, writing furiously on the back of pink invoice slips. Such a man may or may not be employed, but regardless, there is mystery there. If this man is with a dog, then that's good, because it means he's capable of forming relationships. But if the dog is a male dog, that's probably a bad sign, because it means the guy is likely a dog, too. A girl dog is much better, but if the guy is over thirty, any kind of dog is a bad sign regardless, because it means he's stopped trusting humans altogether. In general, if nothing else, guys my age with dogs are going to be work. Then there's stubble: stubble indicates a possible drinker, but if he's driving a van or a pickup truck, he hasn't hit bottom yet, so watch out, honey. A guy writing something on a clipboard while facing the ocean at 3:37 P.M. may be writing poetry, or he may be writing a letter begging someone for forgiveness. But if he's writing real words, not just a job estimate or something business-y, then more likely than not this guy has something emotional going on, which could mean he has a soul.

Oh, and the boys of summer shall return to cuddle up against the waves when they hear the ocean whisper their names...
I'm roughly 29 :), give or take 10 y.
