i_kenderHad a great time on Friday night... met up with the lovely ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
buddleia at First Out and spent a few hours talking and laughing... there may have been some drinking involved. Oh, and spintrian was supposed to come too but he's had his Venusian Death Flu, so...
I was a little creeped out at one point when I looked up and realised I was trapped in a corner with three hundred women in a tiny bar built for thirty and I would have to clamber over lesbians to get to the bar. For some reason when you get a heap of lesbians (I'm sure that's not the right collective noun, but hey...) in a bar, the room always goes terrifyingly electric with testosterone. More than with straight men, but then again how the hell would I know? I can't remember the last time I was in a bar with mostly stright men... the idea makes me queasy. Oh, lesbians are ok once they scope you're not a straight man with lesbian fetish hoping for a sandwich. Apparently they only bite if you ask really nicely, so it was fine... not actually scared, just a little out of my element-y. But buddleia is as wonderful as ever, she cracked me up- hello!- and we had a cool time.
Saturday was chilling out at home time, and today has mostly been packing. Trepidation... Tomorrow I get to do a little travel... although with Bahrain this involves travelling through space, and time, and culture shifts. Like Sliders, parallel universes. And of course I change too, get all stretched and plasticky, and become a distinctly different Mehran. Tandoori-flavoured Mehran, maybe. It's a seasonal special. Yeesh, I just hope I get to make this trip on my time-scale. I'm due back Monday next week. Time me? Something always goes wrong when I go home. The last two times it was death and funeral, I'm doing a family wedding this time so I really hope that covers the formal occasion angle.
And tempting fate, he said... It's only for a week! What could possibly happen in a week?

Date: 2004-11-22 01:19 am (UTC)Oh, and the collective noun for lesbians is AN INCEST.

Date: 2004-12-14 04:22 am (UTC)Don't get me wrong, I love lesbians. Some of my my best friends are (or have been?) lesbians. How infintely more terrifying if that had been a bar full of straight girls! God...
Snicker... an Incest of lesbians. I like it. Very apt. Although considering how tortured and tangled a lot of lesbian relationships become (why is that? It seems to be a speciality...) maybe a Calamity of lesbians? Or Catastrophy? I like Plague myself, but hey that's just me ;)
Let me know when you want to go to THAT CLUB... wink wink, nudge nudge, fall over embarassingly.
