The Gecko and The Cock

Today is the first day of my last year as a 20-something year old. In 364 days, I will turn 30 and something mysterious will happen to me: I will take out a mortgage or buy a car; Kevin and I might fly to Canada, get married and adopt a couple of kids; I'll settle down with an Admin job and stop complaining about life.

For now, I'm enjoying the remnants of my life as a 20-something year old. This decade went so fast. In comparison, yesterday was slow and calm: when I got home, Allison and her boyfriend Dave (who is visiting us from Canada) cooked dinner while I watched my sweet and lovely Judge Judy. After we ate I opened my presents. This is what I got:

- The game Second Sight from Kevin
- A french mystery novel called Maigret et Son Mort and a french news magazine ("L'Observateur"?) from Allison
- Body shop stuff from Jennifer

There was a vinegar-tasting bottle of red wine passed around before we retired to the living room for a movie. We decided on Young Adam a "gritty thriller set in Scottland in the 1950's". Halfway through the movie, Ewan McGregor was lying in bed with Tilda Swinton, postcotum, when she lifted the blanket. For a good 5 seconds, the camera lingered on Ewan McGregor's cock:

Voila, there lay, in full view, my last birthday gift.
