I call Tuesday my lazy day, mainly because I take a day off from walking. I do my grocery shopping instead and any other things I need to get done around the house. Lately, I’ve been meeting up with Joy every other week and yesterday was her day.
Things have been going fairly well with her I suppose. She calls me her best friend and does those little things like messaging me periodically throughout the day to check-in and see how I’m doing. Actually, that gets a little irritating at times, but I understand that she’s sincerely trying to be sweet. There have been a couple of times where I sensed something was going on with her, but I didn’t let myself get sucked into whatever that drama was all about. Last week she asked for an “advance” on her allowance to buy milk and diapers for her daughter. It was only 500 pesos and she met me in Barretto to get it, so I don’t really have a problem with that unless it becomes a regular “emergency.”
Anyway, I was scheduled to meet Joy at noon and she arrived early. I appreciate that she doesn’t operate on “Filipina time.” As is our custom, I took her to lunch. This week we ate at The Pub. I had the French dip sandwich, Joy went with ramyeon. Food was good, but we are just not able to hold a meaningful conversation. Her English is weak and she doesn’t understand a lot of what I say. Oh well, no one is perfect.
After lunch, Joy came to my place. Usually, we get right down to the “boom-boom” business, but this time she had promised to give me a much-needed pedicure. I must say that I was impressed with the professional job she did on my overgrown toenails. As she worked on my feet I felt myself growing increasingly drowsy. When she was finished with the pedicure all I wanted to do was take a nap, so I told her I was too tired for sex this time. She seemed to take the news in stride and I handed her the standard 3500 pesos. To her credit, she tried to repay the 500 she had borrowed last week, but I told her to keep it as a tip for the pedicure.
Joy has sent me several messages now telling me how much she missed having sex with me and that she hopes we can get together and boom-boom before her menstruation starts. And she sent me this:
So there you have it. I’ve got a gal practically begging me for sex and I’m just too damn lazy to do anything about it. It’s like the world has been turned upside down! Well, Joy will just have to wait until her turn comes up again at the end of the month I suppose.
Tomorrow Judy is scheduled to come over and give me a “massage.” She needs to pay her electric bill.
Life is good!
I simply can’t live the way you do, but hey, you do you, as long as no one’s getting hurt. Meantime, enjoy your lazy day!
It’s not the life I dreamed about, but it is the only one that I have. I really thought I’d find a girl and fall in love again. Now, it is whatever gets me through the day. The funny/sad thing is my friends in relationships seem to envy my life of freedom.
One day at a time and see what happens next. That’s what I keep telling myself.
