a west end moment

Well, I had what my brother laughingly called a 'West End moment' last night. After downloading some South Park episodes, I decided - at about 1:30 AM - to turn in. I spun about in my chair, and saw two naked figures in bed in one of the apartments across the street. They were partially backlit by a bright lamp, in front of half-open blinds. The fellow was on top, looking down at his partner as he rocked back and forth. Blinking in surprise, I realised that his motions were all wrong. I thought, "How could he be...." And it dawned on me. It was two men. Welcome to the neighbourhood! I went to bed.
