12:40 am - Sunday 29th October 2000

These late hours are beginning to feel familiar again… I don't think that is a good move.

So, tonight like a good gender variant I went and saw "Rocky Horror Picture Show" which was presumably arranged to coincide with Halloween. Though the film reel was dodgy in a lot of ways, the small but positive audience made it fun.

I don't think I'm making any particular attempt to be visible, but for some reason these last few days I keep going past guys who can't resist making some lewd comment. Whether it be the observation of "Nice tits there baby" or something else, I take it as a compliment that I am passing, but otherwise consider it a slur. I don't really know what motivates a guy to say something like that, but then I haven't ever dwelt in that sort of "head-space", nor do I wish to.

Today I decided to go and visit Red, but just missed the bus. I wasted an hour before the next bus came along and when I finally got there she and her Mum were sunning themselves on the front porch. I ignored the "get him a drink" from Red's mum and enjoyed the lunch they offered. Red and I walked down to Manuka and wandered about. I bought the CD transcript of Apollo 11's flight to the moon and after bidding good bye to Red I came home and listened to that before I snoozed.

1:40 am - I'm tidying up my bio for the psych session on Wednesday. I was chatting with a friend online, and she has to write some enormous amount of essays to justify for her therapist what she is doing. She's in the US, and I think the psych's over there are a lot more uptight than here. I guess I'm lucky.
