It has been a long few weeks and I have found myself not really wanting to post on this blog, or any other for that matter. Hell, I havent even caught up on my reading yet. This has mostly to do with the fact that I ahve other things to do that take precedence (like school work) or just wantign to relax and become a potato after work.
Which is sad because I am really enjoying Peter Master's book. It is a bit overly psychological in my opinion, but it does have a lot of very good points to it. A hell of a lot better than the Loving Dominant which to me is just a horrid collection of fantasy fluffy bunny garbade for the most part. I cannot believe that that book is so highly recommended. But then again, with most of the people that recommend it, and what I know of them, I kinda gotta consider the source on that topic.
However, on that same sort of subject, I've been perusing Fetlife again as of late. Not because I have any real interest in the cliquish highschool behavior of the groups there (not to mention the really fucked up ideas about things that some of them have) but for more personal reasons.
My girl has been here going on two months now. And aside from a friend who lives in Long Beach, she really doesn't know anyone out here. So for social reasons I thought I would get us both involved in the local group out here in the desert. More for her than for me, but I think it would be good on both accounts. I really don't know anyone eitehr and I've lived here for years. But then again, I'm an evil curmudgeonly hermit. What do you expect.
I've been invited to come to the group before but I declined each and every time. To many bad experiences with this sort of thing. However, I have done quite a bit of research on this particular group, and paid close attention to the relative age group and experience level. Which brought me to the conclusion that even if I do not agree with any of thier ideas (not sure if I do or not havent heard them..shush) they seem to be the right sort of age grouping that I would actually be comfortable with.
Not the sort of group that seems filled with a bunch of twenty somethign teeny boppers who don't have a fucking clue about what they are talkign about and are either A: pretending and trying out a fantasy, or B. just looking to be the center of attention. No 19 year old 'Goddesses' with just oodles of experience in attendance to my knowledge.
And thats a good thing. I find I ahve a very low tolerance for the whole high school feeling I get from a lot of people involved in this sort of thing. And that isn't even mentioning the whole 'pay attention to me' sort of thing that seems to go on and be encouraged and coddled in some circles.
As long as they don't ask me about my opinions on the vast majority of Pro's.
But then again I ahve to remind myself of one thing. I can quite easily do without some sort of community socializing. I can, have and will probably do so again. But in this case this isnt about me. Oh the horror....No, it's more about my girl getting out there and meeting people and having people close at hand she can talk to, relate to and go have fun with...no not that kind, along with being evil and sadistic I'm possessive and psychotic too...and I can kill a man at 300 meters (Thank you US Army hehe)
I'm doing this not because I will particularly enjoy it, and the pessemist in me says I more than likely won't (but who knows), I'm doing it because it is what she needs. She said she was like one of the Sims and her Social meter needs to be filled up.
I do however hold and reserve the right to be grumpy and curmudgeonly about it.
