"So, yeah, I'm at mom's finishing up some Laundry, then I'm going back to the cottage to clean out The Cat and pack a bag. Then tomorrow bright and early (ok, early I am rarely bright at that hour) I am driving to NYC for a BDSM convention.
Yes, New York City.
Yes, a BDSM convention. TNG-3 to be specific.
Why am I going to a city I abhore for a convention devoted to something I still get weird about sometimes? I'm not really sure. I think part of it is that I want an opportunity to explore this side of me in a venue where I know everyone ther is ok with the idea. Also it should be if nothing else a highly entertaining day[1].
it doesn't hurt that someone I find interesting and intreguing will be there (even though the odds of finding each other is slim).
I do give it about 20-30% chance that I will get weirded out or otherwise react badly while there and end up fleeing for CT. but hey *shrug* that's the risk one takes. And if I get weirded out early enough in the day I can go visit the giant Toys-R-Us and FAO Shwartze in NYC.
But regardless, it is a chance to go off on a little trip and get the heck out of CT (and especially the cottage) for a bit. Maybe it'll give me the shove I need to get out of this weird anti-social-unless-they're-convinently-close funk I've been in lately."
