raybearForgot to mention that last night I finally hooked up with my friend Le___ and we had a beer at the illustrious L&L Tavern. She's pretty quirky and different, and I mean those in the highly complimentary sense. Her pace of conversation and way of thinking about things was intriguing as well. I enjoy talking to people who challenge my own style of talking and sotry-telling -- it makes me realized how I can sometime just operate on auto-pilot and tell the same stories or give the same analysis on a situation over and over again. We talked a good bit about astrology, tarot, some about doing drag, some stuff about gender identity and labels and books. I asked her some about the dom work and what else she's been up to, including stuff in Australia at the women's circus. We also had some interesting talks about jealous, relationship, polyamory and neogitation. One of those talks were we're speaking almost entirely in general and theoretical terms -- but it's obvious we have some underlying personal experiences. I also met her puppy boy, who was very nice, though it was awkward when he showed because I could sense the tension between them that she previously mentioned. But nothing traumatic happened -- just my usual overly perceptive self and emotional-radar running hot.
I also realized last night that although I enjoy sitting in a bar while people-watching and chatting (assuming the bar is NOT crowded or very loud), whenever I get home I feel especially grimy and like I wasted lots of time. Sort of like watching TV for an entire evening and then going to bed and not really feeling tired because I've been inactive and unproductive.
I think because I've been out twice this week and was social (and I enjoyed both times), I definitely feel like I'm pulling my energy in, and I'm not planning on being especially outgoing this evening. So I'll probably be giving pretty reserved readings. Which is a good idea if I'm going to last three and a half hours. It can be rather exhausting otherwise. Besides, I just have to keep telling myself that it will all be worth it at the end of the night when I get the check. Plus I can sleep in and stay at home tomorrow. I've been needing some home time, possibly even a bit of alone time. So yay for Friday and the advent of the weekend.
I've managed to sit here for a whole 10 minutes and not get solicited by an atty for a project. Which basically just means it will probably be really busy on Monday. At least I went ahead and got the brief cover done....
