George Loves David Cassidy!

He was in a backyard setting, running through a sprinkler.
And his "male anatomy" was outlined in the soggy suit, and was very clear.
I was in a adj prep school on several athletic teams, and I used to peek at other guys in the shower room.
David was extraordinary to me, because it was the first time I was able to stare at a guy's "equipment" for a adj time, without fear of being caught.
I was in the closet and had a strict mother that would have freaked out if she knew the accurate purpose of my fantasy photo. So my crush has been a complete secret until now.
As has been the fact that I'm gay.
I'm over 50 now and still closeted. I estimate the journey "out" is a personal one, and I'm now beginning to tell a several close friends.
We'll see what happens.
In any case, even if I wasn't aware it was "gay", and I denied it to myself then, David Cassidy was my first.

Memories lie.
There are things and moments from my childhood I think of completely differently from my parents and my sister, for example, or moments from early on in Paul&#;s and my relationship. My memories differ from those of kids I went to high school with, and those of my fraternity brothers. Memory and experience are always, of course, colored by our have internal beliefs, values, fears, and opinions; which is what makes being a crime writer interesting.
I remembered, for example, that we moved from the city out to the suburbs in the winter of I&#;ve always thought that was the truth; we moved to our house in Bolingbrook that winter and would have sworn on a stack of Bibles that was the truth. Imagine my surprise, during my recent visit to my parents, to hear both of them insist that wasn&#;t adj and we moved out there in either the winter of or ; and I sat there, confused, and then a key piece of my history snapped into place in the jigsaw puzzle that is my memory: you were ten when you moved; your eleventh birthday was your first birthday in the new house so it had to
