Public Service Announcement
Don't go see Monster alone unless you like walking down the street crying silently to yourself and having snot icicles form on your face. Also don't call a gay man and ask him to join you for dinner so you won't have to eat alone and cry some more -- he will probably have to work out and tell you that if he misses working out his boyfriend won't get sex that night and kindly ask if you want to be responsible for that. Sigh. On a positive note, said same gay man did call back and offer to meet me, but sadly I had already finished my sad alone meal, but at least I warmed up enough to let the snot thaw.
