Should I go fishing or get a friend to hang around? Celebrated GAY Summer 2012

! you should goooo

I didn't mean that 30 is the point of no return as in people after thirty don't look good! I know tons of 40 and 50 year olds who look better than me. I meant tha 30 is the point at which it becomes significantly more difficult to get in shape/back in shape from a position of being not at all.

Obviously you all look fabulous and I would make out with all of you. It was more of a 'personal deadline after which the amount of effort required to get healthy increases'. I might be wrong about that too! But I didn't intend to insult everyone at once.

:( have once again put my foot in my mouth. Sigh.

it's fine! nobody's upset! i'm just ... 29 :)

I wasn't upset either. I'm just glad I started climbing when I was 25.

I was just having fun, but I'm glad u clarified, sweetie. My finding is EVERY YEAR makes it harder. My body kinda went *BLUP* at about 23, tho it wasn't real noticeable til my 40s.

Obviously you all look fabulous and I would make out with all of you

Shall I draw up an affidavit?

:( have once again put my foot in my mouth. Sigh.

you deserve much better objects in there

surm: gonna wait til i finally have benefits for that (which is HOPEFULLY before year's end)

I thought yr progressive employers wd've given u a Sweden-style package, dr. :/

Foot has been replaced with a fruit smoothie. Much more delicious. A blender is a wonderful thing.

Oh man, look what I started (and then left poor Alex to pick up the slack as if HE was the one who said "30 really does change everything" in the first place--sorry 'bout that!).

30 is NOT the beginning of the end, and I'm sorry if I made it sound like that's what I was suggesting just because I was whining about no longer being able to eat half a large pizza w/o worrying about the consequences. And fuck it, I actually like going to the (non-sex, alas) gym and am kinda pissed now that it wasn't part of my regular routine all along.

birth is the beginning of the end.

I may need sex this weekend – my pores are clogged.

That's not where you're supposed to put that thing.

The general atmosphere is very sluttish. What did or is about to happen?

on the thread or in M1am1?

Is it over or is it just beginning?

This is the most homo-ish conversation.

What is about to happen: I am considering whether to hook up with a law student (not THAT young) I've been playing tag with for... 3-4 months? He seems cute enough, but he's British and the voice reminds me of one of the Python Twit of the Year finalists.

i cannot fucking wait til i turn 30

Um. I can't speak for all of us, but I don't think I've seen a more sexually voracious bunch than gay law students I know. SOmething about not having a lot of free time and a lot of stress result in them taking good advantage of every opportunity.

libraries and shorts -- what's not to love?

I can only hope their technique doesn't confirm the "fucks like an attorney" slur.

i am talking to someone named Ben who likes "masc" people

now, i am not extremely "masc" but i feel that when i want to be i can be like not the gayest person you've ever met

...

are they supposed to talk too much? be self-involved and non-reciprocating? xp

I think it means mechanical, no spontaneity etc.

not that there aren't millions of non-attorneys like that

i did a double take on a job description recently that starts with "Working under the supervision of the head of MASC" like... mIRC flashbacks :/

stands for Manuscripts, Archives, and Special Collections, naturally

"i'm not only masc, i work under the supervision of the head of masc."

so BUTCH ... books under topical collections and headers

no kissing in the MASC library

head of MASC sounds like an alpha top sir

Where's the TMI thread? I feel like some of this conversation belongs there.

oh I'm saving way worse stuff for that

wait why is this TMI?

Alex has that discreet Canadian thing goin' on

(well, when he's not filling us in on everything)

It's only TMI if it's not fanciful joking.

haha. I didn't mean this specifically. we were just drifting in the direction of sex-talk.

or maybe part of me just wants to tell y'all about my morning /humblebrag

ohh i see. well go ahead and tell us i don't think anyone'll like look the other way and sip their tea

Interviewed one of the Step Up dancers this morning and had to resist the urge to jump him after we got to talking tattoos.

congratulations on unearthing your libido!

All it took was a hot, taut, tatted, olive-skinned hip-hop dancer roughly 10 years my junior.

had a morning wrestling match with a lovely fellow. it was supposed to be best 3 of 5 but i lost handily in the first three rounds. nearly succeeded round 2. the consequences of the loss were...satisfying.

s'nice

but yeah. apparently this (i.e. wrestling) is a thing? i didn't know it was a thing.

Oh yeah?! Well...this morning I had sex with my common law husband of several years. :-S

[ but really :-) ]
