I got a text from the Tickler late last night. They no longer want to go to Ceremony, the goth monthly that used to be at Re-bar but is restarting at the Clockout on Beacon Hill. The reason why makes me sad: they said anxiety about being near that many people in an enclosed space was getting to them. They offered to either a) try again later, or b) do drinks or eats tonight.
I opted for (a). It's Halloween weekend, we're emerging from a pandemic, and I want to be around humans. No, I need to be around humans. Anyone who's known me for more than five minutes knows that about me.
So now I have a dilemma: Ceremony or the Seattle Erotic Art Festival gala tonight? I didn't even know SEAF was this weekend – it's historically been in the spring – until well after I'd made the date with the Tickler.
Ceremony should be happening in December, or at least some later month. There will be tons of people I know at both events. SEAF will be bigger and closer, but more expensive. I already have a ticket for SEAF at non-party hours on Saturday afternoon, during which time Taller Woman will be volunteering and may be available for a hug. Oh yeah: a lady I was talking with on Tinder yesterday says she'll be at SEAF tonight.
You know what? Clubbing alone isn't as fun as showing up alone to a big room full of quality porn and sexily dressed peeps. My life needs to be more like the London trip. SEAF it is.
