Finishing a story (not here) in three days. Mine usually take a while as I nitpick words and phrases. Well, unless it's a micro or flash.

Have you ever shared a bed just for sleeping in adulthood, no sex involved?

Maybe? I remember us screwing on NYE but not sure if we made it to midnight.

HYE had sex wearing a Halloween costume?

Given my penchant for Forest sex, you would think I would go for the druid. However, deflowering a paladin in a church ... yeah, too good to pass up. Extra points if the paladin is male.😏😎

Sex on top of a mountain or sex on the bottom of the ocean (in a submersible of course)?

No. (Well, unless you are asking if I WANT sex tonight, in which case a nominal "yes")

Play or Musical?

Vampire story submitted over on StoriesSpace. Now contemplating what to do with the rest of the week. Pursue something new, maybe another horror/ghost story for Halloween, or return to one of my ongoing projects.

Chris de Burgh had his kids when he was at the peak of his career, with the result that he wrote several songs addressed to/about his kids. "I'm Counting on You" is one and this somewhat unlikely acoustic cover by Serj Tankian (System of a Down) came out last year. Dedicating this to the new parents and grandparents.

I will be the only grandad for them, as my son-in-law's father is not around.

That was my situation growing up. My mother's parents died young and I never knew them so "Grandma" and "Grandpa" meant Dad's parents basically by default.

they have already started imposing Sharia Law

Well, no, they are imposing a conservative/fundamentalist Christian interpretation of the Old Testament Jewish laws. Sharia is Muslim and comes with it's own set of values and baggage. Every Muslim will tell you they follow Sharia, but there are many diverse interpretations and understandings of what that means from the fundamentalists in Iran and Saudi Arabia to more liberal ones like many North American Muslims. And Christians and Jews are very much the same with the Old Testament laws. So you can't say they are imposing "Sharia" or "Biblical" laws. It's much more specifically a fundamentalist understanding of those laws. IOW, please don't judge a religion's value system and religious practice based on the most extreme interpretation of it. In the end, this is on the Supreme Court justices for choosing to bring their religious values into a secular courtroom, not any religion.

Madrugada

This is band names in alphabetical order, not "use the last letter of the one above me".

Quiet Riot (playing off Mitch59's correct one)

What's Urdu for "Grandpa" I wonder? My daughter-in-law is Pakistani so I'm sure that's what her father will be called, maybe me, too. Though I believe her dad's native language is actually Punjabi.

As for me, they can call me anything as long as they don't call me late for dinner. 😉🤣

(The) Ocean

Double grandad, even. Wow. Your youngest and her guy are going to have their hands full. Congratulations to you and the family.

FYI, I posted a short notice on StoriesSpace since he was active there at times as well.

We knew this was coming but you can never really be prepared. Fuzzy and I shared a deep love of music and his morning tunes were a big part of Rumps for me in recent years. He left some wonderful comments on my stories both here and on SS, too. Great guy. Wish we'd had the opportunity to meet in person. RIP.

RIP, Carl/Fuzzy. Our love of music is probably the thing we had most in common. Can't think of a better song for a sendoff than this, possibly the greatest lament in rock. Singer is Swedish-Canadian soprano Julia Westlin.

Went to a couple Blue Jays games in their early days. None others, though.

HYE fought the law and the law won?

Backyard. I do have a bit of a thing for outdoor sex.

Backyard sex on a blanket or just on the ground?

Nope. And I am not about to try.

HYE been brained by the ball in any kind of sport you have played?

Yep. Been there, done that. Was on a local BBS in the early 90s that had a gateway to allow us to send email and read Usenet. 28.8 modem, I think but upgraded later.

HYE had to deal with a wasp or other dangerous insect's nest?

Yep. Sometimes wish I had stayed in my first career (librarian) but IT has been an interesting ride and I have a great workplace.

Is a good work environment more important than compensation and benefits?

Email, mostly. Then probably text.

Sex in a tent or sex in a camper?

I do have some ideas for a few spooky stories that I'd like to get started for next month.

I have a week off this week, that's why I've already started my spooky stuff. Means I might get a couple in this year. Should try to go erotic horror for the next one so I get one for each site but we shall see. Might also do something lighter since the vampire story goes pretty dark (and might go darker, I am at a possible ending but might remove that and go longer).

Does Halloween count? Because I love Halloween. I have become more fond of Christmas now, too, that the whole gift giving thing isn't happening in my family anymore. Not sure what Christmas will be like this year, though. We get back from a trip on Christmas Eve.

Do you plan an annual getaway of any kind?

I have long felt that, especially this term, he sees the president as an elected king and tries to behave like an old style absolute monarch, not a wussy (as Trump would see it) constitutional one like Charles III and other modern Western monarchs.

When I was sexually active, they usually just got pushed off to the side, so I guess that's more "on top" than "under".

Younger partner (but legal, of course) or older partner?

A few. BASIC is the main one. I have written JavaScript for work but that's not generally considered a true programming language.

HYE built a custom computer system or had one built for you (vs. just something straight off the rack)?

A vampire story for Halloween but keeping it clean. I haven't published on StoriesSpace for a long time and I want to focus on the horror, not sex.

Not yet. A couple really bad storms that made a mess in spots but nothing that would qualify as "major".

HYE had to take shelter or evacuate due to a storm (tornado, hurricane, whatever)?

Because it feels so fucking good (yes, I got off this morning 😁)

Music is nice during sex provided it suits the mood. So probably no death or black metal unless you're getting really weird and kinky.😋

Foreplay in bath/shower or actually have sex there?
