  I'm back at work today. Moving slowly, but here. Allergies are
  whoopin' my ass.
  
  Poly dinner last night was quiet & not very well-attended. I really
  have no clue when it comes to Indian food. I ordered something
  because it seemed like a thing I could pronounce, and it turned out
  to be a fried pancake thing with mashed potatoes & peas in it, and
  two fried doughnut things that were spicy rather than sweet, and 3
  cups of sauces/soups/dessert/I dunnowhatthehellitwas.
  
  The cool things about dinner last night were:
  
  1) Erin and Marca came with their wedding photos from SF--they
  heard/read about the mayor making gay marriage legal, so they flew
  out and stood in front of city hall for 2 days and got married.
  
  2) we had a visitor from Tempe, AZ who is thinking of moving to
  Austin. Even though we locals weren't impressed by the turnout, he
  was. He kinda put me on the spot re: am I poly, do I wanna be, bla
  bla, and I tried yet again to explain my feelings in general re:
  people & relationships, but apparently didn't do very well, got that
  pity/horror reaction I despise. Oh well.

It's not that I hate sex. Sex is a fine thing. It just seems like a
giant waste of my time to get to know someone, connect as human
beings, put work and time and emotion into relating to them and then
come to find out that all they want from me is to make squishy noises
in the dark. Hells, you don't need ME for that, a sock or a warm
washcloth will do just fine.
