Adult Blogger: 40 INCH PLUS 40INCHPLUS was a guy who lived in the apartment across from us who was a writer and he was always home all the time. He was kind of cute in a geeky Brad Pitt sort of way although he was pretty old (mom said he was thirty-eight) and he was always nice to me.
A day or so after my idea hatched he was walking in from the grocery store when I was coming in from school.
"Hi!" I said to him, hoping for a response that was more than just a courtesy.
"Hey." He looked up at me and kept going.
I took a chance. "So, uh, what do you write about all the time?"
He stopped and looked at me. "Umm, just stories, I guess. Human interest stuff for magazines and stuff. Nothing you'd be interested in."
"No, really, I'd love to read them sometime." I lied. I read 'People' and 'Us' and I always watch a movie instead of reading the book.
"Really?" He stopped and actually looked at me. "Ask your mom if it's okay and you can come up sometime and maybe check things out."
And that started a new friendship that spilled on into my senior year of high school. A lot of the days I'd get home from school I'd dump my bags and change out of my uniform and get into my grubbies and head over to David's and settle into reading whatever story he was currently working on. We'd chat and talk about things like his relationships and the boys back home I liked and the boys in California I hated and we'd talk about my mom and my dad.
