No, I don't tend to send those. If I did, it would be on here and be links to my private album (which I do have, by the way).

HYE masturbated to sexy pics send by someone you know online but have never met in person?

Flight. More useful in my life. Invisibility would have its uses but flight would take my commute down to probably 5 minutes and depending on how fast I could fly, I could see my son more often (he's 6-7 hours by car but flying at even a decent clip would cut that down significantly).

Sing or play an instrument?

I'm weird. My favourite superhero is Batman (at least certain versions of him) but overall, I'm more of a Marvel guy.

Would you be a superhero or supervillain if you had powers?

No and it's not really something I am interested in.

Would you ever choose watching TV or playing computer games over sex?

Not yet. I'd like to.

HYE gone to a foreign country to visit someone you met online?

Hardboiled tends to be more my speed for mysteries.

Supernatural horror or psychological horror?

Hello there, Bear. Hope you had a good trip. Your fur is still white so I guess the smoke wasn't too bad. 😊

Kind of cool in my neck of the woods today, by July standards at least. I kind of welcome it as someone not fond of the heat, but 20C is a throwback to Spring. So a nice, warm cup of Assam tea would be welcome along with a bear claw (the pastry kind, not yours).

Debating my comp entry and might try something else. I am kind of stuck on an ending as, as I commented elsewhere, it's kind of a by the numbers first time piece. Kind of sweet and romantic with a bit of character development (hey, it's 5000 words including sex, there's only so much character development one can do). I just find those don't fly here. Needs a raunchier scenario or a twist of some kind. I'll see. I don't return to work until Monday so I've got some time still.

Music? Hmmmm. How about some thrash jazz? Yep, pinup model and jazz singer Robyn Adele Anderson with a jazz cover of "Raining Blood" by Slayer. She even ties it to the recent chaotic atmospheric conditions where she lives (East Coast US).

And I learned this morning that Jess Holland, lead singer of neo-prog band Solstice since 2020, is leaving after the end of their current run of shows to pursue teaching and other activities. I think she's recorded vocals for their next album, too. I shall miss Jess. Her voice is part of what drew me to the band a couple years ago. They have two capable backup singers, either of whom could step forward to take the role or maybe they'll look abroad. Founder Andy Glass (guitar) is pretty well-connected in the music business so might have some options. That's how he got Jess.

I would like to do a resort so I can just crash with some books and maybe my laptop (to write). Wife prefers cruising, though, so end up doing a lot of those.

Read fiction or non-fiction?

No. My fear of heights/falling is too strong for that.

HYE been in a plane crash or emergency landing?

Quote by Piquet

Dear friends, I'd like to take this opportunity to announce the posting of my entry, 'Kallitechnia.' A story set in a time and place of great artistic achievement: ancient Athens in the mid-5th century B.C. The people you will meet there are denizens of the Kerameikos, the disreputable and vibrant Potters' Quarter, which produced many works of art that are prized by museums and collectors today...

Will try to get to this one, though I'm trying to hold off reading until mine is done (assuming I finish, it's so boring and pedestrian compared to something like this that it may not be worth the effort). I have a degree in classics and visited Greece last year so this one sound near and dear to my heart.

And, yes, I do believe that's Paul Schaeffer on the keys but there's no credit so I'm not certain.

Hey hey hey, it's another morning! Not sure which one just now. Vacation does that to you.

Bertha is all ready with some Hasbeans Dark Roast Colombian. Teapots are filled with Earl Grey and Scottish Breakfast with other fine teas available over by the kettle. And we're a bar, so there's plenty else here to drink. Whatcha want?

Morning tuneage, guaranteed to wake you up. Can con approved and as heavy as this band ever gets.

And for those heading to work, here's Guess Who guitarist and his buddy Fred Turner, aka Bachman Turner Overdrive, with their classic "Takin' Care of Business"

Not yet. Need a willing, imaginative partner, and present company isn't even having sex with me anymore.

Do you ever falling in love with casual hookups?

I said my piece above (under my deleted account but people quoted me so look for seeker4 in the quotes), but I still find the fact that she offered him bareback not a good sign.

Kill them. 😲

No, that's a terrible joke. If it was inconsequential, I might let it slide. Otherwise, have a talk.

What things are you most likely to lie about?

Having my morning wood sucked or jerked would be lovely, but probably lean to being sucked. If I am the giver, likewise.

Morning sex or evening sex?

Not quite that stalkerish even in my horny teen days. Somehow managed to have my bike routes go past houses where I knew my crushes lived, though.

HYE posed nude for a sketch or painting (yes, this might have something to do with my comp entry)?

No but I'm not ruling it out. I've flirted with it a bit.

Have you ever crossdressed in a sexual context (vs. for a Halloween costume or something)?

Forums hands down, then stories (since I am a writer). Not really into chat. Only group I'm in is a bit moribund right now. I used to use the old black box chats occasionally for chat sex but haven't really connected with anyone interested since the new DM system came in.

Were you active on the Internet before the World Wide Web came along (1990s)?

I'm not really that submissive a person but the idea of being tied up intrigues me and I've it used in the odd story. So be tied.

What is the most unlikely place where you have met a new partner?

And that woman I keep raving about has been at it again. After cancelling a signing session pleading unwellness, Floor Jansen came back in the evening and blew them away. This song was written by Floor during her tenure in the Dutch band After Forever and has been a staple in her solo sets since she started doing solo shows in 2019. This was Floor's first show with a new bassist/backing vocalist after her usual bassist went on a mat leave (she was very obviously pregnant right from the start of their concert season so we knew it was coming).

Ah, my favourite Joan Jett song that turned out to be a cover (the original was Tommy James and the Shondelles). Great tune either way.

Hello, Lion. Thanks for the tuneage. I should get into the habit of posting a tune or two myself. Just haven't seen much recently that inspired me. How about more Joan Jett, though?

Started on the deck this morning but wasn't sure of privacy, so moved to my home office/spare bedroom for the finale. Got myself wound up working on my comp story.

Mine kind of stalled. Got a buildup that develops the art element, then a seduction (also with artistic qualities) and some hot sex, but an ending? Can't seem to figure that part out. I have c. 900 words to work with so I'm not lacking space, just not sure how this ends.

I haven't, actually. Both my brothers played soccer but I never did for some reason.

Were you watching the World Cup over the past few weeks?

Take On Me - Aha

Gets me out of doors at least. Depends on the yardwork. Digging holes and such is kind of off my radar now given back and knees. But mowing the lawn or basic pruning, trimming, and weeding I am good with in the right mood.

Is gardening a hobby of yours, or ever likely to be?

I get "Likes" on my profile pretty much weekly from women who are seemingly promoting their dom/mistress services. Pretty normal for a while now. Haven't had them actually message me since I have "Only allow messages from friends" turned on. If you don't need to get messages from people other than friends, maybe try that. Have you reported the profiles so the mods can have a look?

Heard of it, but never been. Haven't even been to my city's airshow since it revived but my office is close enough to the airport that we see them anyhow.

What is the sexiest piece of clothing you wear regularly, excluding swimwear?

I do. It's not big and with the drier weather we are getting mid-summer, the grass isn't growing very quickly.

Do you use a gas mower, manual, or electric?
