Monday Nov 2nd, the rest of halloween & birthday | makingbabycoutts's Blog

We made it to the cliffs and were treated to a wonderful sunset. I was waitin for him to kiss me but he didn't so I kissed him. I'm more liberal with my kisses than he is. Nothing right or wrong, just the way we are.

Anyways, we really liked it there. I can see myself going back alone with tea light candles and a soft blanket. We came upon a nice hidden niche that was perfect. It had little dug out spots in the side where it went into the top of the cliff that were flat on top and perfect for putting the tea lights in. It's one place you don't want to sleep, that's for sure. It's very dangerous there.

After the sunset we ate big $10.00 burgers at Hodads. They were very busy and we waited a long time. While waiting in the line outside there was a man who played nice guitar music for whatever people put in his bucket. I expected annoying folk music but I liked what he played. I should have given him a tip but I was being stingy. Still had a haunted house to cover yet.

Hardly anyone had their order when we were seated. We waited and waited as they served the people to the left and right of us. The gals onion rings smelled so good that I still kinda want them even now. She saw his order come and said "I wanna see ya eat that" as his huge double cheeseburger basket flopped onto the table. It was greasy unhealthy food but it was goooood and we ate our fill.

Afterwards we made our way to Downtown for the haunted house. $4.00 for parking, yikes! We walk down and wait for them to open. We waited and waited and waited but they never opened the doors. We were there standing on the curb for at least 40 minutes. Their flyer said they were open THROUGH Nov 1st, implying they were open ON Nov 1st but I don't think they were. They had left a stroke light on in one of the upstairs areas and Daddy Coutts could see it flashing so it looked like they intended to open. We just got tired of waiting and left. That was going to be my very first haunted house with him. I was a little disappointed because I was looking forward to it. It looked like a ton of fun. I'd never seen a 3D under water themed haunted house before. Oh well. Next year. Maybe next year we can take her with us. Maybe.

We were so glad to be home, lemme tell ya. We both just wanted to relax. I crawled into comfy sweats and a t shirt, he slid outta his clothes (save his boxers) and we both unwound in front of opposite computers. It was ok though because we were mutually content with the arrangement.

He came into the bedroom frequently. Once pressing himself against me in a slightly provocative way while showing me something on the laptop. I got a tingle of excitement mixed with somethin else - nervousness. I dunno, it's like it's been so long that now those kinds of touches feel unfamiliar, like the first time, even though I know it's not and I should be familiar with his touch.

I get that first time nervousness instead of that old comfortable familiarity and knowledge that feel like an old shoe or your favorite jeans. Some things are so familiar like breathing, like holding my daughter, or seeing his face. But then there are other things, like the first time your new boyfriend french kisses you, the first time he finds a way to tell you he wants sex without actually coming out and saying it, etc where you're nervous on some level. I felt like that when he pressed against me.

Now now now I'm not sayin anything about how long it's been or anything like that cause that's not what this is about. I'm just describing what I felt at the time, that's all, so don't go readin more into this than is there. 

For a moment I contemplated whether or not I was too tired to "stoke the fire" and get somethin goin. I fell asleep before coming to a decision on it. I was pooped. I was comfortable and happy so it didn't even matter that we didn't fool around. I still had a good time and a good birthday.
