I made up my mind before I left that I wasn't going to be intimate with anyone I might meet over there, being as how I'd just been through a lot of "casual" and unfulfilling experiences. What would be the point there when I'm only a transient. It worked out great, no worries. Incidentally, I had to bicycle everywhere I went and that may have helped. I recommend lots of exercise (although ... it could act as a stimulant as well).<BR/>You know, I've always thought celibacy might have saved my life, because this was 1982-83, and AIDS was in its worldwide breakout. It was then concentrated in the biggest cities and gay pops. (Straight people were still in denial they could even get it.) San Fran, New York, Toronto, Paris ... I was near an international university ... and London, and if I'd indulged in casual sex, that's an undeniable risk I would have been taking, when you think now about the partners-of-partners metric.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7771595.post-1141772074612323142006-03-07T17:54:00.000-05:002006-03-07T17:54:00.000-05:00I'm sure it's some sub-par movie.

In the movie industry, you need to have either talent or looks. There isn't really room for ugly people who can't act their way out of a paper bag. But I digress...Wendyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12173001485763309117noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7771595.post-1141764515194875972006-03-07T15:48:00.000-05:002006-03-07T15:48:00.000-05:00Wasn't the going without for 40 days also the prem...Wasn't the going without for 40 days also the premise of a movie? ;-)<BR/><BR/>I think I'll give up sex as well...oh wait..I shoudl give up something I get on a regular basis or else it's not really that big a sacrifice...Michael Hickersonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08283539524957605129noreply@blogger.com
