Do You Like A Camping Breakfast? Camping Breakfast! Yes I do!
I'm going camping tomorrow!
It's A's birthday, and there's a huge bash tomorrow and Saturday out Bull Pen/Clear Creek. Two days of complete and utter relaxation. Nothing but swimming, hiking, eating, smoking, drinking and spending time with friends. And possibly drum circles and spontaneous folk music, as a number of musicians are among our social circle. In which case maybe I ought to bring one of my outfits that is comfortable and cut well for belly dancing. Because belly dancing around an open fire in the middle of the woods would be freaking awesome. And I am far better at that than African tribal dance, which most of us do. I'm learning, though, and can do a few moves!
I wish I had my ankle bells. :/
It's been months since I was last out camping, and I'm really looking forward to this. Plus! Bull Pen! That's husband_brother and my's camping spot! The grove of the earth snail! The forest of the mirror squirrels! The land of the colossi!
Yes, there have been many a grand old time had at Bull Pen.
Speaking of birthdays...the 21st birthday of a very, very dear RL friend who lives out in Tucson is in February. We tend to only see each other at cons, what with gas and distance and crappy cars making commutes between here and there next to impossible, but we really want to be able to spend this with him. We talked about it last month, at PCC, and how fun it would be to hit the hookah bar, grab some Indian food, and party till dawn. And besides that...
Texas (as I shall dub him for online purposes) has been absolutely amazing to me. I can't even explain. I can take care of myself, and am proud of the fact, but that doesn't mean I don't appreciate someone looking out for me. And Texas looks out for me in a way that just.... I can't explain it! He never gives the impression that he's worried something would happen, or that he thinks I need protection. He doesn't even imply that's what he's doing. He's just always there, by my side, when there's a chance I might need someone. Somehow, he just knows. He jokes about me being his little sister - even though I'm older, he's like 6'5 and made of muscle - and has never, ever treated me with anything less than perfect respect. He has never looked at me sexually. He has never made even so much as a sexually-themed joke to me. When he compliments me or says I look beautiful, it's in the same way he'd say it about a painting. And that is something I have never had before. I have a lot of guy friends, and while I don't mind the joking and the teasing and the light-hearted flirting...
It's really nice to know there's a guy who looks at me and doesn't see anything sexual. He just sees me, a person he cares about.
And honestly? He has prevented some stuff. Just this last time, he grabbed the camera of some dude trying to get an upskirt shot of me and tried to get security, and he stood guard for me while I had to make use of a sheltered corner of the parking garage top floor. Which meant actively holding back two creepy dudes who apparently didn't hear 'hey, wait a few minutes, the lady needs to answer nature's call' repeated five times at them. (That time Marijuana Man was there, too, and gave aide.)
And I thanked him, afterwards, for everything. And all he said was 'you never have to thank me, I want to look after you'.
Yeah, I really need to get out there for his birthday. Somehow. ANYWAY! No idea when I'm leaving tomorrow, will find out tonight. Going to be hanging out with N and A for a bit tonight, after I go to dinner with my folks.
Oh, and I got husband_brother into The Dark Tower! SOMEONE WHO CAN READ MY DARK TOWER FIC! Guess this means I should actually post some one of these days.... Speaking of! Finally finished Treachery, and....yeah. So many little things I can point to for evidence of my favorite pairing. And on that note....
