I have kept a diary, journal, notebook… whatever you want to call it… since my 18th birthday, when I left the Minnesota farm where I grew up and boarded a flight to Europe. I’ve taken breaks from writing, of course. There were gaps of months at a time when I was working on other projects, writing mysteries, or simply too high on life or drugs or falling in love.
These past few years, though – Wow! Covid-19, MAGA-madness, global climate change, hearing my beautiful city of San Francisco described by the right-wing media as a terrifying hell-hole, plus coming to terms with aging as a gay man in America… all of it demanded that I keep a sense of humor about everything at all times.
You could call this book a sequel to Arlene Francis and Me, but I didn’t stop writing and start up again. I just kept on writing, watching the news and weather reports, escaping into television, down YouTube rabbit holes, and laughing a lot. I hope you’ll enjoy reading and laughing along with me.
