UhOh Ma, He's a Republican

This last weekend I went out with a charming guy who has the coolest loft in Williamsburg. He's a friend of a friend so we've met once or twice before. A few weekends ago he invited me to his birthday party which is how I got to check out the loft. He has a roof deck that almost counts as a backyard. It was a lovely party and I definitely have Deck Envy. Hopefully, Zena's daughter is right and I will relocate in December. I'm not holding my breath but it would be nice.

We had a lovely evening and another late night for me. A highlight was a walk we took in the Meatpacking District. We ran into a young black couple looking to rent a hotel room "not by the hour, the whole night!!! " They were so cute and so young. It was very romantic in a depressing sort of way. They lived on opposites sides of the city which can be quite a distance. Maybe they still lived with parents, had too many roommates..I don't know. This was their one night out and they were having trouble. They didn't have a credit card so many of the hotels wouldn't rent a room to them even though they had the cash for it. I hope they found a place although I am not sure how much help I or my date was.

As far as the date goes, I look forward to getting to hang out with him again. That is unless he swallows a peanut and dies or something tragic like that. (Hey, it's happened before.) I am a little nonplussed though. This guy claims he is a Republican. Fortunately I managed to roadblock his attempt to dis one of my favorite Senators before I could really get my rant going about you-know-who who is you-know-where for another 864 days. How can a photographer from the East be a Repub for goodness sakes?

There's NO way this guy is Republican! His parents are and maybe he's registered as one, but there's just no way. I can't believe it. I won't believe. I REFUSE to believe it!
