Well, after all the adventure of the last few posts, this will seem positively sedate but I hope the positive direction/trajectory is apparent. So, since the last post things have been quiet. I should be blabbing about going out on Halloween but a horrible cold prevented that. Also, I was not totally into it. Firstly, b/c halloween costuming is often ghoulish or macabre which really isn't my bag. And, I dress up anyway, so the novelty is somewhat lost. But I did miss a chance to hang out with my absolute 2 fave girls in the entire universe. I love them so much and it really was a get big hairy bummer that I didn't get to see them. Alas, that's the way the cookie crumbles.
So, I figure I've got 3 pseudo-agendas with my dressing up. One is the Club 23/downtown scene, the maid work stuff and third, most important and most difficult, is trying to get my SO to be a part of my dressing or to get her to take some charge of the dressing stuff.
The downtown scene is actually pretty great. Club 23 is awesome and Isaac and Trish have created at totally awesome scene to be a part of. I feel quite welcome there and I can wear whatever I want. There are only 2 things that make this a bit of a challenge. One is the late nights, which, with my profession, can be a toughie. The other is parking and getting to the club, which is a bit dodgy, especially if there is a thug event downtown. But, all-in-all, these events have changed my life. I'm hoping to go this Saturday as well....yay! As far as the downtown getting out stuff goes, there is la cage aux folles coming and I'm hoping to go there in drag as well. Seems appropriate to me and should be pretty safe! Just need somebody who wants to come with me...we'll see.
The maid work stuff and the SO stuff are intimately tied for now as my ability to be a maid requires time away. This one still has some very exciting imminent potential. I am still planning on becoming the office maid but there is a couple of challenges. First of all, is the time commitment, with my hectic schedule, taking 3 hours a week to work will not be inconsequential. Another challenge is how to let the current cleaner go and also what is the excuse. I'm not certain on this one. Most important is clarifying whether this is okay with the SO. She seems pretty okay with it but it isn't real just yet, so, she might change her opinion as it becomes real. The main issue for her will be the time away. It is otherwise a pretty safe outlet.
Also, along the maid lines, we have talked about downsizing our place to create more financial freedom. This would enable more play time and less need to work. So...we recently found a place that looked like it might actually be worth putting an offer in on. We were discussing the benefits of the move and she mentioned that I could take every second friday off and be the house maid, while she toodles off into the city and shops. She was actually making a joke b/c the kind of woman who just goes off to the city and shops while her housekeeper slaves away is really not the kind of woman we like. By saying this, she was sort of pretending to have fun. But my response was one of total enthusiasm. She was kind of surprised and made it clear that she was not serious about taking off to go shopping. I clarified that I got the joke but the thought of being the maid at home for her 2x a month was absolutely dreamy. And the thought of her being the type of woman who would just go off and do as she pleases was crazy hot. Primarily b/c I would love to be her maid and love her to celebrate her superiority in this dynamic. Of course, that isn't reality but I keep trying to encourage it. Ultimately, she did the math and it is painfully obvious that me being the maid would save some money, as we previously had housekeepers, but me working is way more financially savvy. But, if my work was to slow down (which it does at times) and get back to normal levels (I'm currently really busy) it would be pretty simple for me to work one day every 2 weeks as a maid. The key would be her being cool with it and I think I am getting there. She really does seem to get that I would LOVE to do it and that it isn't taking advantage of me or being a bad partner but quite the opposite.
