Libraries and Lasses

So I was at the library minding my own business ... as all god stories start ... As I've been away from the Chi for the last couple of months, I've had to join a new library in order to keep up with my reading. Last week I stopped by to pick up my books and decided to peruse the new books shelf to see if there was anything that I was interested in reading.

As I was reaching for something on the top shelf I heard "I'd never have pegged you as the pink wearing type. I looked over and it was one of the lasses that I've gotten to know. Now it took me a second to figure out what she was talking about after which I replied "Laundry day".

Now you know I couldn't let it pass so I asked her what she had me down as - I should have known better I know-. Wee bonny lass went on to give me a damn thesis on the most common color of my undergarments including the cut... see what had happened was I usually skip belting my jeans so if I reach up you'll catch a glimpse of the color. You'd have to be super observant to nail the cut though.

Anyway surfice it to say I was 1- slightly mortified 2- mildly curious as to why she'd take the time to figure all this out. So being the gentle lass that I am I introduced myself properly and asked her how long it had taken to figure this out. Turns out she's been throwing an eye in my direction since the beginning of summer ... I thought she was just being friendly since she gave no indications of being queer when I tried to sneak stuff into the conversations. Anyway the lass alas can move no further than acquaintance as I'm leaving the area soon.

Which brings me to the title of the post ... what is it with me and meeting women in the library? She is the second person I've met out here at the library - the first one happened to work in the same company as I did and I don't like my personal life to overlap with my work life.

Goapele - Play

Looks like I'm back

Hmmm I think my schedule is about to open up and I should be able to start blogging fairly regularly again ... til then enjoy a song I've been loving for a bit. Adele -Someone Like You

Is it Saturday yet?

I am going to blame my absences on my brutal work schedule and leave it at that. Going from self employed to being on someone else's payroll = giving up some freedoms.
Soooo how are the women looking out there? Where I am all I gotta say is dear Lord forgive me for I have sinned and unfortunately will continue to at the going rate. Yes there is a platter of eye candy which you would think at my age I am immune to. Nope no such luck. If you can't find someone that catches your eye here I'd recommend joining a convent. I met a lad while shopping for some body jewelery who proceeded to school me on the gay scene out here. Consider me prepped and in the know.
I am not exactly out at work but I think a few have it figured out esp the schedule maker. I have a late start on gay day and on pride which are days when I would normally have an early start.
Hmmm onto more serious news, I was quite saddened to hear of the passing of MaSisule, one of South Africa's finest. The woman had a will of steel and the discipline that many of us strive for. May she rest in peace.
Have a great weekend folks!
