This morning's frostscape

[vaneramos]

The weather is still bitterly cold. It's expected to warm up by Monday to a high of 0°C (32°F) and then descend into the deep freeze again. This, along with reduced winter daylight, is what I like least about living in Ontario. The office is bright and warm this morning. I feel no inclination to go outside.

Last night I went to the monthly dance. Approaching the hall I saw a full parking lot and expected a busy night, but it was a moderate crowd overrun with women. I told Ray about the misleading parking lot.

"The lesbians all brought their big trucks," he explained.

Last month I flirted with a cute bearded cowboy trucker from Barrie who came with J and his partner. J and I flirted, too, as usual. Referring to his partner, J called their guest "the middle of our sandwich."

Last night when I walked over to greet J, he groped my ass and said, "E says hi."

"The trucker from Barrie?" I asked, unable to suppress a grin.

"Yeah. He's stuck on a gig in Pennsylvania, otherwise he would have come tonight. He hopes he can make it next month."

Interesting, but I ought to remember J has been teasing me for two years. He probably just wants me to join the gay bowling league.

Bob and Mark are vacationing in Costa Rica. Les didn't show up. Neither did Matt. Mostly I played busboy, hung out with Ray and Jon, and stayed to the bitter end to carry Tammy's DJ equipment out to her pickup. Ray drove me home again.

You're on the same wavelength as me. The picture of black water and white ice I posted yesterday made me think of yin and yang, so I was excited to see it again in this nice curve.

It looks like a small crowd of us is going dancing again tonight, which is fine with me.

I thought you would like this. It has urban overtones that made me think of your art.

lesbians' transportation

For some reason, I just cannot get the quote "The lesbians all brought their big trucks." out of my head; I find it a delightful image (I don't /think/ any of the lesbians I've known over the years drove trucks; one drove a Mazda Protege and one her grandfather's handmedown Buick, not sure about the rest.)

Ray made a facetious generalization, but honestly there were quite a few pickups in the parking lot that evening.
