sistawendy: me in a tie die dress with a flirty look on my face (flirty hippy)
I went on that first date with the tall, athletic, outdoorsy lady - the TAOist - who I mentioned in the previous post. It was just chatting over a mellow couple of drinks at the mostly-empty Wildrose. About an hour into the two-plus hours, she was yawning and leaning back in her chair. I was afraid I was boring her, but she said she hadn't been sleeping well lately.

Yes, I told her about Temptress and yes, she's copacetic; she's done "open relationships". Even if she hadn't, we've both been hanging out at the Mercury for over ten years, so I'd be surprised if she freaked out at poly.

She's bi (which I knew) and not hugely experienced with women (which I suspected). She is seriously into chocolate, even by cis woman standards. At 6', she's pretty tired of being constantly reminded how tall she is. I can relate. She doesn't dress as girly as she used to, which I can't relate to, but she makes andro-except-for-the-hair look good.

She didn't try to romance me or dazzle me with sparkling conversation, but she's refreshingly sane, mature, and together. I've learned to value that thanks to experiences I've documented right here. It probably doesn't hurt that she's less than two years younger than I am. When she dropped me off at the bus stop, I told her I had a lovely time and I'd love to see her again; I think it's going to happen. She asked me if I'd be at the Merc tonight, but it's a kid weekend.

Something to look forward to.
