Pensant

Ooh, I just felt a frisson!

I must confess, having been born just a few miles west of Philadelphia, that I did watch the 49’ers-Eagles game at a friend’s house and really enjoyed it. The first time that I heard the catchy tune “Fly Eagles Fly”. So, while I won’t be attending a Super Bowl party or watching it, since I don’t own a TV, I will be checking in online.

I have become quite “fond” of a handful of regulars and love their company, but I rarely seek to spend time with them off the clock. As has been stated ad infinitum on this board, this is a business and boyfriend relationships don’t often turn out well. That said, I met a new provider Monday night who’s one of the best initial meets I’ve ever had. He’d like to join me for an occasional hike off the clock. I’m open to that, but I’m under no illusions about it leading to a “boyfriend” relationship. I love my alone time and I’m not interested in a long-term relationship, thus my fondness for this hobby.

What prompts you to say that?

We like to gossip about fashion from time to time. You can certainly leave the room if you choose.

Would’ve loved to have been in the back seat for part of that trek!

A very happy birthday to one of my favorite posters! Hope you’re enjoying a lissome young friend!

Haven’t met him, but he looks like a safe bet. Just book him!

Feet is often listed as an activity in profiles. I enjoy feet, too. I just ask if they’re into it. The guys I hire love it after experiencing it.

I’m not a fan of pasta, so I use my spiralizer to make yellow squash “spaghetti”. I serve meat balls and marinara sauce over them for a delicious paleo meal. Also make a scratch Bolognese and serve it the same way.

Salmon roasted in the oven after brushing it with olive oil and adding salt, pepper and smoked paprika is simple and delicious. When I’m on the island in the summer, l buy fresh caught salmon and halibut all the time. A favorite with halibut is to prepare it with butter in a cast iron skillet, 5 minutes to each side on medium heat (I have gas). Absolutely perfect.

I confess to spending a fair amount on clothes. I recently bought black leather and merino wool fleece car coat from Orvis for $3200, made in the US. Three years ago I spent the same for a custom made navy cashmere overcoat. I have two pairs of Alden cordovan leather boots, one in black and one in #8 cordovan that were around $800. And on and on.

That’s exactly the procedure I follow, scheduling the time of the live call by text.

I started hitting the Boom in the mid 90’s. Off the charts fun! Woody’s, which replaced The Little Shrimp, was also fun. I lived 30 years just south of Laguna and it was quite the fun time. The WEHO boys would come down on Memorial Day, the 4th and Labor Day and we’d all comingle at West Beach, followed by drinks and dinner at Mark’s or Shame on the Moon, and then head to the Boom. We OC boys always received invitations to come up to WEHO after being such awesome hosts in OC. It really was the time of my life. So many beautiful boys. https://www.lagunabeachmagazine.com/a-gay-heyday/

I generally am out by 9 am for the reasons you stated.
