Dear X,

Well enough about you, and more about my favourite topic: ME.

Well, on Friday I went to see my friend Rui (he introduced me to Kazu. It was the first time I'd seen him this year, so it was important for me to look good (to show that I can live without Kaz', and so that he will be prepared to introduce me to other guys). He doesn't know about Mr. Tuesday night (the guy who didn't let me get rid of my gum) yet.

After dinner, we went to a bar. There was this very sexy French man there, who looked a little bored, but who kept looking over at me. Well, it was late, and I had been thinking this week that my bed wasn't very comfortable, so I wondered if the Frenchman would be good enough to test out my mattress, and give me his opinion. He obliged. It was so good. We were testing the mattress for almost 4 hours (yes, I was very tired the next day). I was quite happy (5 Vodkas) before I met him, but very happy once I'd hooked up. No offence, but when you're having sex, French is so much better to hear than any other language. It just IS so right. Japanese sounds silly. I hated it when Mr. Tuesday told me "kimochi ii", it sounds like something you'd tell your teacher when you get a good mark for a Kanji test, or when the sun shines brightly, not something you want to hear whilst chewing gum! British English sounds just silly. Since most true Brits don't say that they're happy in their everyday lives, but merely complain, so if they say anything positive in bed, it sounds really contrived. And American English, well that always sounds stupid, so in bed it's equally stupid. The phrases "yeah, you like that don't ya'" and "yeah, suck that dick" (à la porno film) sound convincing only in American-English, but I don't expect to hear that in my bed! Which brings me back to Mr. Friday. (I actually do know his name, but I'll call him Mr. Air France), he said all the right words, and gave me easily the best sex I've had in months. He's an Air steward, and he's leaving Japan tomorrow morning, which is a shame…

I'm feeling much better than I did a week ago, and although I don't intend to have too many one-nights-of pleasure, I am enjoying my get-over-Kazu sluttiness.

Well, that's me...and it's now going to be my bed time, so I'll leave you,
