Hemingway

Chad Grant

    Autumn wove furious looms of blistering heat upon Los Angeles. The days were too unbearable for sweaters, and I was down and out as autumn pulled the wool over my eyes. Work went to the beautiful and was very hard to come by, so were the women, my girlfriend of a year left me high and dry, but so are the perils of being a young adult. Our relationship was fickle, no seriousness, simply sex, a loft, and a terrier in the heart of the city. Somehow I managed to scrape by. Hemingway, our dog, was in heat humping at anything he could find. We were both at a loss, weary, destroyed but not defeated; losing the rat race of youth, love, and the opposite sex.

    The days gradually cooled, and winter rolled around. I managed to spot a gig at a bookstore, sparking up a conversation with a customer reading Hemingway, but it was to no avail, a modern day Jake Barnes, humping the system with a minimum wage job, on a rainy afternoon day.
