" Well," Crystal said, "any time I get too hot, I can always go back in the lake." That's the real advantage of being so young. But isn't the water aw...fully cold?" And any time I get too cold, I can come out again." Great, now she was having a conversation with his grandmother, and a silly one at that. Still, it beat hanging around in silence. And some students at the university found her attractive in her swimsuit -- fit for a nun, or not.After a minute, JG wandered off. She got away not too. This time, I had a few things to put away in my garage, organize some shelves, etc. The garage door (the one through which the car goes) was closed but the people-size door has a window in it. What are the odds of an unexpected visitor? Well, you guessed it. As I was walking around with only a t-shirt on, I noticed their shadows on the floor of the garage, they were peering through the window at me! I expected to hear a knock but they just stood and watched. At first, I was embarrassed for. Did Penny love me anymore? Before last night I would have said, 'No, she didn't; at least not any more than any of her good friends.' That changed last night.Last night Penny and I had connected. It was far more than just sex. I knew recreational sex. I had done that many times. Last night was infinitely deeper, more meaningful than any experience I had ever had.Julie and I – no, not even close. Kelly and I – yes, we came close to the feeling a couple times while we were a couple, but that was. For god’s sake! I’ve also discovered that it bothers me to be ready for a shower in the morning, only to find her bras and underwear hanging in there drying. I either have to gather them up, or wait for Laurie to get her rear in gear and take care of them. Not a happy situation when I’m in a hurry to get to work. Does Laurie believe that sitting next to me on the couch clipping and filing her toenails, while dressed in some shabby old robe, is a real turn-on? Can’t she understand that some.
