I was rather upset by this, but actually it didn\u2019t turn out so badly.  The landlord agreed not to spray in my apartment, since I haven\u2019t seen any bugs for quite a while now (knock on wood).  And it got me out of the house on a half-way decent Saturday morning in April.  I went over to the local nature preserve and took a mini-hike with my camera.  And here below are some of my shots.  <\/p>\n<p>After the hike, incidentally, I was reading a book in the parking lot while awaiting the 2 PM return time.  I noticed some guy in a car who kept on circling around the complex, stopping and parking near my car, then after 5 or 10 minutes leaving.  He did this about six or seven times before he finally disappeared.  Actually, he parked closer to my car on the last two or three passes.  Very strange.  Or do some gay guys still cruise obscure parking lots (and bathroom stalls \u2013 remember Senator Larry Craig)?  I know that parking lots were once a big gay scene here in NJ, but I thought that with the Internet, such indiscretions became obsolete.  It all seemed kind-of pathetic to me, not to mention a waste of energy and clean air; but then again, we hetero&#8217;s have our stupidities too.  Especially when spring is in the air and the skunk cabbage is blooming.
