With Blushes

[greenstorm]

Okay. This is kind of embarrassing. It's also really funny.

I don't know what combination of movement, sunlight, and spandex it was, but running in this beautiful sunny 28 celsius weather was an enormous turn-on. Seriously. Talk about strange, but yes, very true. *sigh* So what do you do? Stop and say, mom, I need a walk break. Not, I need a walk break because if I don't take a little break I'm going to come, but just, I need a walk break.

Between this and the powertool/loud noise fetish I'm starting to feel somewhat unusual.

But it was a wonderful run, I've figured out the time for my brother's grad ceremony Friday and mom's going to grab me tickets, I think I'll be able to make it to the Vancouver polyamoury group meeting Friday evening, and I'm back to running which is good in and of itself.

The SO's mom is taking me to a nursery tomorrow as a general fun outing. I'm really blessed in my parents-kind-of-in-law. The SO's birthday is coming up, so I need to decide whether I want to sit around with his entire social group (the coolest of whom will be my brother, The Other Woman, Estrellada, and possibly The Juggler, and the least cool of whom will predominate) watching movies I'm not interested in or go kick around by myself for an evening. I'm leaning towards a nice random walk at this point.

Hmm. A lot of planning-type stuff going on just in the last couple of hours, as you can probably tell. I'll need to hit the Van Deusen plant show for at least a day the weekend after this, the VanPoly retreat is coming up the weekend at the end of this month...

I think that's about planned up, more spontaneous things will have to fill themselves in with no advance help.

The Exotic and I are settling into some form of understanding about what we like doing together, even if we can't settle on a longterm framework of expectations. We seem to be doing pretty well in a practical sense so far, which is really good. He'll be out in August and everyone in the Group seems to be thinking about that -- I think it'll go well as long as we keep communicating and as long ... well, neh. No need for predictions here. We'll keep communicating and anything that needs to be resolved will be resolved how it needs to be.

With this gorgeous weather (twenty five to twenty eight seems to be my ideal range) I'm starting to think about frequenting Wreck Beach again. It takes a pretty hot day to go in the water there with the drop in temperature that sea breeze offers, but the place really is lovely. There's something about trying on clothing without a changing room, too... :D

But, off to shower. Keep well.

Mmm, endorphens are fun.

No more unusual than a thing for pinstripes. I think.

Come to the movie night, I will need a distraction, and you are a good one :)

Tho Speaking of Planning Stuff...
When are we going to Wreck, Babe? an' should we bring a fan club or no? Tower or Main? Decisions, decisions...

It's more than endorphins. I've run longer than this before without the effects, but never run so long in this heat. So: clothing, heat, sunlight, what bit of it's the trigger?

I don't know about this movie night. Where to feel more isolated than with that particular bunch of the SO's friends? We'll see if this feeling of disconnect passes by then.

If we go to Wreck Sunday I'll give you a call if the rest of the molecule doesn't mind, just on the off chance you're free.

Gods only knows what's going on next weekend -- when's Sin City? I think I may be invited to it with some people...

Even Wreck's not going to entice me away from the flower show. But we'll figure something out. Dammit, this planning is getting to me. I want to say, let's go, now! and show up at your door.

I need to move to a reasonable location.

Yay, yay, yay! This particular little offshoot of various molecules thinks that would be just great. But also thinks that estrellada might still be in Victoria as of Sunday, is it so?

In any case, this weekend is supposed to be *fantastic* beach weather, so I wanna go bask in it. Baked Rodent.

I'm so addicted to planning right now I can't really do without it.

So: I would love to be frolicking nekkid on the beach with you & your people, but I am gonna instead be ogling massive bones in Victoria.
*oh baby*
As for SinCity, it's on a night I have a date with Rob, so who knows, who knows....

Yes, you and the boy ;) should be trolling the "rental" pages for East Van, North Burnaby and environs...Farmer's Market...Womyn's Wear...Transit that isn't named after anorexic canines...Hell, we could "go for coffee".

[darthmaus.livejournal.com]

I, uhm, I get that too. Are you sure it's a good idea for us to go running together? :)

I was wondering what might be going on for said upcoming birthday, and if I can be of any help... sounds like it's all planned?

You'd love it here now, lots of loud noises and power tools. He has his nerdy friends over for MAME cabinet construction. Darn them, drowning out my stereo!

[saxifrage00.livejournal.com]

Semi-planned, as in the idea has been planted but I can't send out emails inquiring of other people's schedules until a date is pencilled in.

Watch this link.

Perish the thought of not consulting you about my birthday!
...Who else could I trust to select the beer? ;)

[darthmaus.livejournal.com]

Damn! I'm too slow, as usual. Was going to suggest having something here. Anyway, let me know what works out!

[saxifrage00.livejournal.com]

I've never pegged things too tightly to my birthday. I'm entirely unopposed to having multiple celebrations. :D

[darthmaus.livejournal.com]

OK, still gotta let me know when your other party ends up so there's no scheduling conflict :)

greenstorm, this could resolve the dilemmas, no? Just have multiple parties!

[saxifrage00.livejournal.com]

Oh, but I would still want you to come to t'other!

What would a BYO Movie Night be without my favourite film geek? :)

[darthmaus.livejournal.com]

Well, I don't know what you have planned and how I would fit in -- you're more than welcome to borrow anything you like from my collection, and if it does seem like something I'd fit in to, then of course I'd love to be there!

[greenstorm.livejournal.com]

Eh, if he's not out to his friends I'd just frighten them, no?

In fact, I'm in a frightening sort of mood in general. Best leave that for after the honeymoon, so to speak. It's ending, sure, but gradual is the way to go here.

I think it's a great idea to go running together and have a backup crew waiting at home to complete after-run maintenance but it'll just be the Juggler on Saturday. Do you think he's up for it? ;)

[darthmaus.livejournal.com]

Do you think he's up for it? ;)

Oh, yeah, I can hear him complaining right now. Oh, wait, that's moaning. That, my dear, would be his sweetest fantasy come true.

Post-workout sex rocks! I had a boyfriend once who turned out to be a little lacking in the brains department (I have a smart person fetish, you may have noticed) but we always went to the gym together and, uhm, after the workout was nice.
