On the way back Rick made a joke about what it would be like to swing. I didn't think they where in the life style. So i ask if Shannon thought the sa...me way and Rick said she has talked about it at times. I laughed a little and said that is funny since me and Mandi been talking about swinging with another couple. We both had a little laugh. We got back to the house I made the drinks for the lady's and grabbed couple beers for Rick and I and went in to the living room. We started talking about. How do you know what it means? How can you be sure? What if you're wrong?"I became bold. "What if it's wrong? You mean what if it's more than twelve times? That's the most dots there are. They don't come with more than twelve dots." No, I mean what if you're wrong about the sex?"I waited for her to continue but she was finished. "I'm never wrong about sex." Sammy, really, how can you be so cavalier about something this... this... how can you off-handedly talk about sex that way?" I'm serious.. What about thosestories great grandmother told us?"Nicole sniffed contemptuously but I could tell from her expression thatshe remembered exactly the ones to which I referred. The year beforeshe passed away, in her 97th year, our great grandmother, who lived inMarseille, came to visit the estate in the summer of the year beforethe war. Though it was warm, this wrinkled old woman always went aboutas though it was actually late in autumn. But bent and lined as shewas, she was surprisingly clear. “We’re going to have to find some time to practice together, Will,” Megan said. “When can you squeeze me into your busy schedule?”“It might not be until early February,” I said. “I’ll try to make time for us, though.”“We have a while before we have to get these others worked out,” Phil said. “If the two of you get together, work them out between you, they will be good.”We continued the rehearsal session as usual, and when we took another break, Megan asked me if I would want her to sing along.
