-The Family That Preys,
a 2008 Tyler Perry film
Twenty-five years ago today:
August 19, 1986
Tuesday
It’s needless to say that my mosquito bites were killing me. I hung out at Lenny’s for most of the day until it was decided that we should all go to the beach. We ended up doing the lie out in the sun routine in the outdoor patio of Joe’s house. It actually faced the beach, so that was nice. I happened to be lying out next to this one chap that was fairly attractive. He was pretty nice, too. We both took a walk in and around the beach. I saw a deer and a couple of gross looking naked people near some grassy brush.
I forgot the nice chaps’ name but he said, “I have my own business that relates to Public Relations.”
We kept walking and the chap kept kidding around with me.
The chap said, “I really want to get fucked.”
I couldn’t believe that he said it. I felt very uncomfortable about it. How could one do that outside in the open? We toyed with the idea near an electrical section of the island. There was no succession with his wish. As we walked back to Joe’s patio I began to realize that this was a common occurrence in and around these grassy bush areas of the beach on Fire Island. It’s no wonder.
Before long it was six o’clock and we were off and ready to leave Fire Island for New York City again. When we disembarked from the ferry boat a limousine was waiting for us (Ron, Lenny, Steve and his girlfriend and ‘me’). The limousine looked ugly. It was kind of maroon in color. They had some pot as they smoked and talked but the substance of the conversation wasn’t very interesting.
Steve said, “I want to have a party on the island on September 20th. Ron, you have to come back and help me with the food preparation!”
Ron chuckled as I thought I would like to come to that event.
I couldn’t believe that the limo ride was twenty-five dollars per person! Lenny backed it up as a pretty good deal. He’s crazy!
Steve and his girlfriend were dropped off and then we went home to Lenny’s apartment to shower and freshen-up. Lenny’s so-called ex-boyfriend came over. He was a much older man named Bob. Bob had to be in his mid-fifties. Bob brought along his dog. Lenny, Bob, Ron and I all went out for Chinese Food. We walked through the Lincoln Center area via other shops and restaurants. I saw where they filmed ALL MY CHILDREN at ABC-TV. We walked by the main entrance to Central Park near Columbus Circle. By midnight or so we were exhausted. We turned in early for the night. Tomorrow’s plan was to take a bus to Connecticut to visit Ron Leoni’s hometown of Harwinton in Litchfield County.
