There are new developments to report in regards to that nice couple I flirted with at Goodhandy’s last weekend!
Before I get into the details, these nice people need some names. Hmmmm, I think I shall call them Asha and Holt.
So the night before last I got up the cojones to call Asha and talk to her about the possibility of playing in the near future. It rang, and rang, and my heart was pounding with anxiety, but the good kind. Her voicemail picked up so I left her a message letting her know it was me and that I hadn’t wanted to wait too long before getting in touch with her.
Some time later my phone announced that a text message had arrived, it was Asha. We started texting back and forth, exchanging snippets of useful information about each other.
First off, she is only 21, and had assumed I was her age, while I had assumed she was my age. We had a bit of a giggle over that. I mean really, 4 years isn’t much of a difference, although I am always a bit wary of young people who are swingers/poly because they tend to not know a heck of a lot about themselves. However, we all know that age is not a good indication of self-awareness, intelligence, or emotional health.
Holt is 40, although I had guessed he was closer to early or mid 30’s. They are not married, merely dating, and she has been swinging with him as a couple for about a year.
They don’t live together, but they do play outside of clubs/parties. They are also into some light BDSM play and seem quite open to just about anything.
It was she who suggested that Jack and I do dinner and possibly more with the two of them at the earliest mutually agreeable juncture. This is a very exciting opportunity, as I think it would be a lot of fun for Jack and I to play together. I’m quite confident that Jack will find her attractive, and he’s so charming and sweet, I have no doubt that she will be interested in him as well.
We haven’t set anything in stone at this point, as far as a specific date for getting together. Holt apparently has a precarious work schedule, and so I told her to discuss his availability with him and get back to me. She and I are both eager to play some more so I am hopeful that I won’t have to wait too terribly long. You all know how patient I am
Tonight is dinner at Susur. Come hell or high water we are not rescheduling again. We don’t have much planned for the weekend at this point, so this will be a lovely little night out for Jack and I.
Speaking of the weekend, Nia invited me to a Beltaine celebration this Sunday, so I’m hoping that I can attend with her. I’ve never been to anything like that before, although Nia tells me that it can involve sex outside somewhere, if you’re into that sort of thing. That reminded me of this song, which Nia and I agree should become the official theme song of Beltaine:
And speaking of songs/music, I’m starting drum lessons sometime this month. Since drumming is on my list, and I found someone willing to teach me, I might as well get started on that. My brothers are both musicians (neither of them drummers however) so I’m really looking forward to being able to jam with them sometime.
There is also a hand drumming workshop later this month that Nia and I signed up for. I am really looking forward to that as well, and it feels really good to be picking up some new talents again. I like to be constantly learning new things, new skills, etc and lately I’ve felt a bit stagnant in that department, so all of this drumming is just what I need!
I’m off to the gym this morning. Happy May Day!!!
