I have ideas, but I better not say!!😮😉

When Sven comes out in a white jump suit with a bottle of baby oil I will only be showing him as much of my backside as he can see as I run out the door. He's definitely not going to see my pistol. The lady said every massage she has ever had was a female massage therapist, but she has never had a couples massage so she doesn't know if it will be Sven, LeRoy or Roberto. I told her unless it's someone with X X chromosomes I will be taking a pass. Even if that person's name is Helga and she's 6' 285# with the grip strength of a silverback gorilla. I did however promise not to fall in love with her.

I don't let people touch me! Special permission required!!
 
Guess who is going to the spa tomorrow with his lady friend? Yep, this guy. Among the other treatments she signed me up for, which are all going to be a surprise, we are having a couple massage. The term "yuck!" comes to mind. Other than a certain person touching certain things, I really don't like to be touched. Regardless she booked another Friday spa day for two but the little one cannot go so I was drafted against my will. Where does one tuck their pistol when oil is being rubbed on their backside? On second thought, don't answer that.ou

I agree with you - I know that some people are into massages but I get the 'yuck' feeling too. I like my hubby to play with my hair once in awhile if we watch a movie together, but I don't like the idea of a stranger touching me. Maybe it's the modesty instilled in me at a young age - I don't know.
 
Good news! No spa day for me! The girls school thing got postponed until next week so she was able to go with her mother. I am not disappointed in the least and after she finally told me what was going to happen, I would have not participated in most of it anyway. This is the package she signed up for: time in the quiet room with fruit infused waters and fancy finger foods, volcanic black sand bath, manicure, pedicure, facial treatment, and 90 minute massage. The whole thing takes 3 1/2-4 hours and costs more than I paid for a new handgun yesterday. She doesn't get the big package every week, but yikes, I am so happy I didn't have to go.

... Right next to the gun you were born with!

We stayed in a rental one time that had a hot tub with refreshingly hot water and the strongest jets that really gave your back a good massage. I would love to get one of them but I think they're a lot of work with balancing the pool chemicals and keeping it clean. Everything is work, work, work. it must really be nice to be rich and be able to pay people to keep your pool clean! I try never to envy others but once in awhile I think of how nice it would be to have someone cook your meals, clean your house, and be able to enjoy things like a hot tub. Ah well, in my dreams...

My hubby's buddy used to do carpentry work for ball players in a wealthy area and he said that "they live different lives."
 
This lady's Friday routine is amazing. Wake up, drink coffee, go for a swim, take a shower, go to the spa, get pampered for 4 hours, come home, tell me all the things she is going to do that day, fall asleep on the sofa or in the bedroom, nap for 3 hours, wake up, say she is too relaxed and sleepy to do anything, lounge around until dinner is served. Then, speaking from experience, she will have some wine, light a few candles, turn the lights down, listen to some music and play on her phone until it's time to go to bed. Don't get me wrong, she is a go-getter who runs her ass off most of the week, but Fridays, that day is her lazy day.
 
My hot tub isn't expensive at all, I just have to make sure her dinner is warm and her eye candy is hot. 🔥
So what are you going to do when you run out of pictures of me doing Manly stuff
 
Tomorrow is adventure day for me and the Lady. We are going out for breakfast with her sister and spouse. Then we are going to do some shopping, which means she is going to do some shopping while I just carry bags. Then we are going to a Halloween spooktacular, think of it as lunch theater with live actors in costume running around the theater at the same time. The movie is either the original Ghost Busters or Beatle Juice, I can't remember which one she bought tickets for. Then we are going to a nearby park to take a walk and kill some time before we are going to another speakeasy for late afternoon drinks and appetizers. We intend to be home somewhere around dinner time, although I am not sure we are going to want or need dinner at that point.

I am really excited about meeting her sister, he said sarcastically.
 
Have fun. Shouldn't be that bad

With the possible exception of the sister thing. The lady describes her as an older version of herself, only a little snobby and 3 steps left of center on the political scale. So just for fun I am going to put on my Trump shirt when I get ready this morning, like it's what I plan on wearing today.
 
The whole time I have been out here drinking coffee and playing on the internet, the lady has been getting ready. I told her to give me a 20 minute heads up so I could finish getting ready and we could both be ready to head out at the same time. That was like 45 minutes ago and I am still waiting. She is seated at what she calls her "makeup battle station" and will probably be there 10-15 more minutes. Seems crazy to me how much time she spends putting on makeup. Do all ladies have a vanity like this? And yes, there is even more stuff in the bathroom but I think that's all skin stuff and makeup removing stuff.

WOW, what a set up!! She doesn't even need makeup!! And NO, I have nothing of the like!! I'll put on some mascara if I'm going somewhere, otherwise no makeup!

She may not need makeup, but she puts on makeup. She has an image consultant and color analyst who helps her select the color pallet that best matches her natural beauty and uses that pallet to determine her makeup and clothing selections. She puts on makeup that matches her outfits and vice versa. Believe me, it's a whole big thing with her. Green bag, green shoes, green belt, green hints to her makeup.

She is a successful business woman, I'm sure appearance contributes to that! She takes very good care of herself, she has earned the right and opportunity to do so!! Plus it gives you a little extra time while she's getting ready!!😉

Chapter 1012:

After meeting the dad it’s safe to say I was 78.3% less excited to meet the sister, an event I was hoping to face sometime after the year 2031. And as a reminder, the lady did not grow up with her sister, she found out about her in college and tracked her down. They have, however, both worked to maintain a sister-level relationship ever since and the daughter affectionally refers to her as “Auntie” and she has been there for her since she was born. The sister grew up wealthy and still lives that way, thanks in part to her husband who is a former MLB player who now runs a sports marketing and memorabilia company. She has a liberal view of the world afforded by never really living in it. Not the way most people have or have to. I will say this though, she looks a heck of a lot like the lady, both of whom appear younger than their actual ages, are always well dressed and always have an air of fanciness about them.

We arrived at the restaurant, and I again got to experience watching a Valet drive away with the car, thankfully this time I knew better and left Charlene at home. This was also another fine dining establishment I had never been to and would likely never go to again. I believe you had to be a member to dine there. Once inside the sisters hugged and kissed each other’s cheeks as I shook the hand of the husband, who was pretty sturdy and well dressed. Then we switched and hugging the sister was a nearly identical physical experience to hugging the lady. I saw her in pictures but in person the lady and her sister look even more alike, sound alike and I am betting they wear the same sized clothing. It was a touch freaky. We were seated and the team of staff assigned to us were johnny on the spot, bringing out drinks and fresh fruit plates as we explored the menu. Most of the conversation was just pleasant catching up and light exploratory questioning. I was, of course, asked what I do for a living even though I would have expected that the lady already provided that information. Feeling slightly better prepared I said, “I’m a professional troubleshooter. I expedite problem solving activities for collaborating law firms”. Yeah, I came up with that one boring day of watching a stripper. That was that for me, but I did get to hear all about the sports marketing and memorabilia business, sales numbers, revenue estimates, etc. He also dropped a lot of names I never heard of, but I don’t really follow sports-ball so it was every bit as boring as it sounds. Although I am confident he makes a whole lot of money. The sister also has an event planning business, which sounded more like the upscale hobby of someone with a lot of money. I walked away feeling like these ‘events’ were actually well-to-do social cause fundraisers and congratulatory events where someone is given an award for something most people wouldn’t care about.

After our expensive food arrived and was partially consumed, we got to what I presume was the main point of this meet up, the status of our relationship. The lady was very bright and smiley as she held my hand and announced that we are very much in love and making plans for the future. That’s when I found out that we had allegedly been dating longer than we really have. The sister said “That’s happening pretty fast, you have only been seeing each other for what? 6-7 months or so?”. The lady just squeezed my hand as if to say, ‘smile and nod’ and said, “Something like that. But that doesn’t matter, when you know you know”. The sister turned to me and said “I hear dad has already given you the go ahead to get married. That was surprising, very much out of character.” I hit her back with “Oh, I wasn’t surprised at all. He’s not the first father who has tried to marry his daughter off to me”. Then I laughed lightly, concealing the fact that he was indeed the very first father who has ever mentioned the words marriage and approval to me. The sister pressed for more relationship details but didn’t really get the answers she wanted, other than finding out I was now living with her sister, and we were house shopping together. Seemed like a lot for her to take in all at once. I could sense some real concern until the lady just stopped the whole line of questioning with “I appreciate how much you care, and yes I have made mistakes when it comes to matters of the heart before. Mistakes I have learned from and will never make again. The very best day I ever had with [dentist], does not even compare to an average day with [me]. He completes me in a way I never thought possible. As far as I am concerned, he is my soulmate, and every day of my life leading up until we met was just preparing me for when we did.” That statement even caught me like ‘holy ****’. I looked over and saw a tear in the lady’s eye, which made her sister tear up, which made them get up and hug each other as they dabbed at tears with their cloth napkins. The baseball player just sat there like it was normal stuff, which to be fair is what I did too. The two ladies returned to their seats and the sister looked right at me and said, “Well then, welcome to the family”. After that we all went back to pleasant breakfast chatter and polite getting to know each other conversation. I can’t recall learning anything worthy of writing down. Politics never reared it's ugly head, even though I kind of hoped it would.

Once the meet up, the meal, the evaluation and the conversation were over, everyone exchanged hugs, kisses and handshakes again. Mr. Baseball covered the meal and I offered my thanks, offering the obligatory “It’s on me next time” knowing that next time I was going to suggest we meet at Chick-fil-A. The ladies started to chat about Thanksgiving but fortunately the Valet showed up with their Bentley. As soon as they were off the Audi showed up and the lady and I started the fun part of our day. And while I am not going to write about it in detail, it was indeed a lot of fun and was full of loving looks, hand holding, kisses and a **** ton of me carrying bags as she drug me from store to store. Next time I will suggest she save the shopping portion as a mother-daughter activity and we book and extra 2 hours at the speakeasy.
