062904 #human Amen hugged me before we left LA. Gume sez Jorge, the guy whose notice I thought I was completely beneath, said I need to release my hips more, stretch out, stop holding back. Sapo fell out, but he's okay. Compreyu is a sullen, self-absorbed teen, but he's okay. Gume is a real guy who needs me as much as I need him. We walked on the beach. Maybe next year I'll actually jump in the roda.
