Three weeks ago A stunning international muralist, I met on Match.com, flew down to Los Angeles. She stayed at the W Hotel in Hollywood. This is a very exciting boutique hotel full of good energy. We shared a couple bottles of wine at the firepit bar outside. It was a magical evening by anyones standards. I could tell by the come hither look, I had seduced her after the first bottle of wine. The second bottle of wine put us past the point of no return. Still she was hiding a secret from me. And no, to all the imaginative Outposters: She was not a transvestite or a hermaphrodite. She was a supple Amazon beauty, with a Carribean allure only a voodoo priestess would have, light brown skin and green eyes, with an exotic accent. She could tell I was a real life mage, living in a fantasy world I created on a place called the Outpost. But still she kept a secret.

Imagine Gandalf and a female Balrog in the mines of Moria attracted to each other rather than fighting in the abyss. Such was this evening. However, little did I know she was a Black magic witch out for a lifetime vendetta. Was I going to learn her secret before it was too late or would she end my run of luck? When you get to be 60 , you lose a little of your edge, you start pressing down hard on the buttons, when they need a lighter touch- like an aging hard boiled detective. I fell for her hard and went to her room.

This is your pal, and long time friend Mo, signing off from the Outpost, where I was marooned here by, Bliss, over ten years ago. If I do not reappear, then I was lost and her secret is lost with me. If not, I will join you all across the sea in whatever Troll Grey Havens emerge from Existence and reveal what happened.

I turn 60 on Easter Sunday, tomorrow. The Buddha was born on the 8th day of the Fourth month , in the Chinese calendar.


Be well. I love you all. Remember to be nice to everyone, but never lose your PvP instinct.


As ever, lost in a sea of magic


Mo

Enjoy your bday old friend. Life would be a much less interesting place without you around. Been quite a few years, but I still look forward to your musing and your outlook on life and all the silly, and occasionally profoundly important, things that fill each of our lives.

Hope you have the best birthday ever, and remember, everything is wonder, ever second of every day...and women are part of everything.
