I was sitting in the part of a nightclub that's supposed to look like the interior of an airplane, drinking to Depeche Mode, when a drag queen asked me to ghostwrite his/her memoirs. I gave him/her a business card.

Yesterday I went on a little hike in the Everglades. There were piles of alligators everywhere, and ibis, great blue herons, cormorants, egrets, cranes... teeming is an understatement. My favorite bird is the anhinga. When it dives, its tail fans out under the water. Very pretty.

My boot camp story.
