Stranger in a Strange Land.

It's weird waking up at a guy's place the 1st time. Weird noticing how alike we can be (maybe a rogue agency of the government is doing experiments which cause every gay guy on the planet to buy the same lamp at Ikea) while at the same time how different.

Looking at his array of photos, Eeth's reminded that he barely knows this guy. At least he barely knows him with his clothes on, the way these people do.

In Ethan and Peter's case, the differences include race, which Is supposed to be a big deal. People who think that should Sleep around more. We all smell the same up close. Peter's skin is warm and sweet and familiar. He and Eeth must use the some soap...

Also, he's all about nature and science, a

vet---who works at a zoo, while Ethan works at a TV station. So in that sense, they're two very different people, with two very different sets of experiences. What would they talk about if they decided to grow old together.? Peter's got birds. Ethan is

owned by a cat...

Jeez,

this stuff's Nasty.

K

Here's a difference: He must buy cereal from the bulk bins at the pricy organic market. Ethan buys Grape Nuts (and Cap'n Crunch and Lucky Charms at the Kroger's.

The nice thing however, about climbing back into bed with a a guy on a Saturday morning, is that differences about pet choice, occupational interests, family background or grocery shopping aren't nearly as important as how good his arms and his back and his legs and his everything else feels.

Did you get some breakfast?
