Idleness is a helluva thing. Am in the Barbados airport and my tired mind starting to wonder about the numbers.
Got out my notepad and started the list. Went through the tattered address book and cellphone contacts to remember more...cause you know, you forget after a certain number.
Then started remembering the occasions, the thrills of the chase...... tried to forget the bad ones. I was certainly very young and foolish. And because I have never been confident about my looks and personality (I'm getting better at it as I age gracefully), the numbers have been kept down...relatively speaking.
But I would surprise people. The number of persons goes over the number of fingers I have even though I've not had many SO's. The thing though is that there haven't been multiple occasions except with a few that were worthwhile going back for.
And at times over the twenty or so years, there have been periods of drought. Three years, two years in between.
It needs watering now. But I've made some decisions about future occasions. Some categories of people are off limits as I grow older and wiser. I don't have to tell you who those are.
