Right then, I couldn’t decide what to wear for this Halloween party tonight so my friend came to the rescue by offering me her “devil dress” that she got in Asda recently for about a tenner.

I’ve not clapped eyes on it yet – she’s dropping it over to me in a bit. But if it’s hideous on me I’m afraid I’ll have to attend the party as my sweet (!) self.


I’ve no back up plan

I don’t have a back up costume as I’ve been so busy over the past couple of days that I wasn’t able to put a massive effort into the hunt for the perfect outfit.

So it looks like I’m going to be some sort of she-devil or just me.

I had to laugh at Magnolea’s story of how he once hooked up with a crazy 43-year-old Swedish woman.

I particularly loved the bit about how she spent so long hanging around his apartment the following day that he ended up missing the first half of the Heineken Cup final. Too funny!

When is a good time to leave?

I think that’s a big issue when two people get together and one of them overnights in the other’s place. How long should the visiting person stay the next day?

I mean, running out of there first thing in horror, leaving skid marks behind you is a bit rude, no matter how much you regret the tryst.

But spending half the day the day there is nearly worse!

I have mates who’ve been stuck in scenarios like that and have had to go to great lengths to get rid of their “guests”.

Excuses, excuses…

One of them pretended she had to work (it was a Saturday morning) and went so far as to call a cab, get into it and tell the driver to take her around the block and back home as soon as the coast was clear.

Another one feigned a trip to the gym – she got out her gear and all, despite her massive hangover.

Thankfully I’ve never had to concoct any tales to get rid of someone, although I did once score with a guy who then left in the middle of the night so we could avoid the embarrassing bit the next morning.

His words, not mine. And yes, this was not one of my finer moments.

I should start getting ready

Anyway, I’d better get my skates on and start getting ready for the party – well, as soon as the dress arrives, that is.

I’ve got some hot red lipstick on hand to go with my devilish demeanour so hopefully I’ll pull off the sexy (but not slutty) vibe that I’m aiming for.

And if not, hey at least I tried. In the meantime, happy Halloween everyone!

  • Nov-4 - LexiI have to agree with Magnolea... what goes on between two (or more) consenting ADULTS is just that - between them!! There is nothing wrong with a bit of dressing up/role play and it doesn't make someone a pervert. I have to say Im a bit surprised at the backlash a simple comment is getting. When did we all get so narrow minded and politically correct?? I would be quicker to take a second look at the people who are up to high-do and crawthumping moralistically over this than the person who made it as a simple comment. Christ, when did sex stop being fun?? Right, when we catch Magnolea outside the local kids school with a bag of sweets (and a puppy) and a leer on his face, then we shall commmence the stoning (two flat ones, two pointy ones and a bag of gravel for me!) but until then, and until Kitten gets her mojo back (c'mon girl, you have hit a lull), I vote that Magnolea writes the blog, cos Im enjoying that more for now ...... hit me baby one more time.......  Show Full Comment
  • Nov-3 - brendanI think you should be making your way into the political arena.... your longwindedness is a natural fit. As for the subject matter, Nobakov made it his literary coup de gace, so, as it's become a "classic" many obviously agree. And the fantasy isn't really pedophilia, it's post puberty, pre-adult woman. And as an aside, I find males who go gaga for the completely shaved woman... well, that suggests pedophilia more than the older school girl fetish. I, for one, prefer a woman's nether regions to be womanly, not little girl-ish.
  • Nov-3 - MagnoleaIt's kind of funny 'cos I ended up in a randomer's apartment on Friday night/saturday morning and again it had been a fairly strange encounter up to then - again, it was a woman in her thirties whose moods seemd to veer all over the place, from despair to elation, almost to the extent that it was one of those situations where I had to question whether I should really be there and if I was just taking advantage of someone who had clearly had too much to drink and wasn't wearing it very well. But in the end it turned out to be a good laugh and nothing major happened, nothing either of us should regret anyway as far as I'm concerned, and she seemed quite comfortable with me being there the following day, even though I suggested I should probably go more than once, she kept saying I could stay , she had a really comfy bed and the conversation got more normal & relaxed as the day wore on, & it was actually getting dark when I eventually left! But yeah most of the time it is awkward - mind you it gets less and less awkward the older you get, I find. By the way, I did have another comment in response to Sbowqueen & any one else who thinks I'm a 'weirdo/perv' because I find schoolgirl costumes sexy on adult women. Again it didn't appear on the blog & normally that's no big deal but in this case, I have to insist on my right to respond. I absolutely disagree 100% that there is something 'abnormal' or 'creepy' about that and before I get slurred again, may I point out to you that while it looks like every poster who labelled me a perv is female, the males are conspicuously quiet on this topic! Anyway it seems to back up what I said earlier, pretty much every guy is into it but wouldn't say so in front of a woman because these days the hysteria/paranoia about what people are afraid it may suggest has reached 'Brass Eye' levels of ludicrousness. For the record: I salivated over many women of all age brackets in town this weekend, in a wide variety of...  Show Full Comment
