Mmmm, I'm experimenting with a drink called the Aviation.
It's tasty on a hot day.
Gin, lemon and lime juice, Marschino liqueur. Shake well over ice and then in a martini glass. Very cool and crisp and tart, but the Maraschino keeps it from being too sour.
I'm sorry so many folks are sweltering. I don't think NC's really been outside of the norm for July, but the norm is high 90s and high humidity. But today it got down to around 80. Bliss!
I'm not going to rule out sex with someone I've only known an hour, but it seems highly unlikely. I usually don't know until the sixth or seventh time I've interacted with someone that they have the slightest interest in me.
Not Cass, but I just tried the washcloth thing with Ozzie and Perkins, and they seemed to appreciate it, even though Perkins took some convincing.
I will have to see if I have any empty 2-liters for tomorrow.
Mom and I both put ice in our cat's water dishes.
Cass, run a washcloth under cold water, wring it out, and then wipe the kitties down. They will be a bit cross about it at first, but it'll will help them a lot.
Excellent idea. Thank you. And yes, quite cross. But it's good for them.
I have my ice packs out for them to be near as well. Thanks, Kristin.
And ice in the water. Yesterday I iced some tuna juice for Kittenish to drink.
We're at 99. By about nine tonight I should be able to open the windows.

3.0 and my exBF were a one-night stand as well. Just one that started six years ago and now includes being married. I suspect if they have kids, I won't be allowed to tell them this either.
My BFF's brother had sex in the bathroom at a party on the first date. The next day (we knew her too), she was all freaked out that he woudl think she was a total slut. they're now married with three kids.
It's pretty much agreed that I am a prude.
I am going outside in my bra and skirt it is SO DAMNED HOT.

You know, I think anyone I've had what could be considered a one-night stand with has been someone I knew socially for several months first.
(Hell, one of them, who I suppose was technically a two night stand, was an old roomie's ex-boyfriend, and I'd known him casually for years.)
But I always tended more towards falling into relationships than falling into bed. Might've been better were it otherwise, at times.
I have had mostly one night stands.
