Alright here we go again - hopefully the computer at work gets along better with Blogger than that box with the hamster wheel at home....
I'm more than a little restless this week. The Santa Ana winds are out in force, as they tend to be at this time of year. It was hotter than crotch here in the City Of Angels at 11:22pm as I started this post last night - a trip since there was a freak rainstorm just a week ago. There is a wildfire out of control in Chatsworth - far enough away for me to be safe, but a little too close to home. Still I've always loved the feel of the hot air against my skin under the moonlight. It's a lot better than being cold in sunlight - that's just unnatural and depressing, if you ask me.
I've been thinking about changes to make around here. I might create a weekend feature. I have no idea what exactly, but something fun and "weekendy." I'm also looking to do a humorous weekly column featuring hilarious and sobering moments from my past - I enjoy spinning those mostly true stories about my childhood and adolescence. And of course, the occasional SuperHero of the Week is bound to pop up. Any suggestions, of course, are welcome. I'll give credit where credit is due if someone comes up with something great that I'm actually capable of. The layout is something I've been thinking of tinkering with for some time actually, too. That one will probably be put to a legitimate vote. And yes, I will put up more pictures...in time. It takes a team of experts and a lot of airbrushing to make me happy with what the camera (especially the digis) turn out.
The other thing I really want to work on is giving L.A. her due around here. The top of this page promises, among other things, musings on the city I live in. To accomplish that will require going out more (something I ought to do anyway) and will bring on more photoblogging. Everybody wins. I'm going to compose a list (heck, maybe I'll even post it!) of things I've never done in L.A. that I should be ashamed of having missed so far. There's plenty on that list, so I can guarantee more than few embarassing posts are coming your way.
Stick around folks - the seasons are changing and this blog is putting on a new wardrobe. You don't want to miss the inevitable nipple slip...

OOOHHH, it sounds exciting, I feel the winds of change already. It would be super exciting to hear about all the funn stuff you do in LA. That said I love your bloggy just the way it is!
I love change... and hate these winds... it's been so bloody hot here the last couple of days it feels like DC in August!
We hit a yearly milestone in Indiana weather...count yourself lucky that the words 'Patchy Frost' aren't coming to a neighborhood near you, lol.
Thankfully, Autumn has asserted itself with a vengence here in picturesque North Cackalacky....it was 51 degrees this morning...which was fine: I've had enough summer for one year. Bring it on winter! Like any gay man worth his salt, I feel the need to layer.
How many Matts does one blog need? I feel there is a great punchline to that but someone else will have to supply.
I like the list of things that you should have already done idea.
Somegirl, there are too many Matt's in this world, you are correct, but we're good people I swear. Unfortunately it seems if you were born anytime between 1975 and 1990 and you were a boy you had about a one in three chance of being Matt. It gets a little crazy sometimes. Some day I am going to meet a boy named Matt and we are going to be blissfully gay together and be known as Matt and Matt, it's my Paris fantasy!
Chippers - If you end up with a Matt, I hope the wedding invites will say: Come share our Mattitude...

This is approximately what I say when I bang my shin on the coffee table.
I'm loving the Santa Ana's... it might be my favorite time of year. Everyone else is starting to get used to the cool fall air, but I'm suddenly sleeping with all the windows open and fans on.
It's starting to feel like fall in my neck of the woods as well-colder weather,better movies(except for The Man),TV shows coming back-can hardly wait for the leaves to turn!
Word verify;
Xander,Under the Duvet Is Five dollars!
You should pick out an address in L.A. and go visit. Just something random.

I believe this is where I found the template for BaT, which I customized a little. You have to wade through a lot of crap, but there are some talented people who contribute.
