Miscellany

A few miscellaneous items to catch up on the last few weeks:

• I spent a bunch of time travelling, living in a particularly hedonistic manner. Yachts on the Cote d'Azur, private villas in Europe, and so on. I didn't write as much as I had expected, and SPF 30 means no tan.
• After a few business meetings in the States, I will be making a return trip to Asia, to see if I can recapitulate some of the amazing experiences I had there earlier this year.
• I am usually not involved with the hobbyist crowd in any social capacity, as I explained before. But I just served as financial underwriter or sponsor for a Seattle party of 100 hobbyists and providers. I found the experience quite interesting, although I did not attend the party itself (out of town.)
• My dating with the "dancer" Cameron appears to be over. Absence doesn't make the heart fonder, I guess. I'll follow up with her the next time I'm in town and we'll see if anything happens, but anybody who doesn't use email or SMS is going to have a hard time keeping in touch with me.
• I have had a lot of interesting correspondance with providers and civilians, mostly arising from this blog. It has been interesting, to say the least. It has provided a few opportunities for dates before I go to Asia.
• The most interesting thing these correspondances have done: made me reconsider what it is I am seeking in sex and relationships. Yes, that is the title of the blog, and it's insufferable for me not to have a well-defined goal in the title, isn't it? But without a strong forcing function to make me decide, I am clearly having trouble zeroing in on a goal.

More on this later. Lots of work meetings tomorrow!
