A number of you might remember me from my younger, wilder days.

Well, I've been largely off the grid, limiting my hobbying to my travels and generally playing here with a few well-placed FWBs or UTR providers.

I had narrowed that list, really, to one woman with whom I had a lot of synergy (and I mean it in that sense)... our kinks were the same, our drives were the same.

Except she is supremely unreliable.  SUPREMELY unreliable.  I won't go into details, but once again I find myself with a rearranged schedule for an early start to the weekend, and nobody to spend it with!

When I was really hobbying, I had developed wonderful friendships with a number of PROFESSIONAL women.  The best of all possible collegial relationships - people interested in developing a rapport that could create a lasting, mutually-beneficial series of experiences.  

Which is why hobbying works.  

So, here I am, ready to enter the TER fray again.  I know at least one long-time friend I'm going to call... but if anyone wants to get a hold of me, to confirm my faith in this realization, I am all ears (well, not ALL ears)...

And thank you all for letting me vent for a moment.
