Happy Thanksgiving, my friend. I hope yours is scrumptious, relaxing and fun.

I really enjoyed the event! And the opportunity to talk to you.

So you enjoyed the story, eh? Your comments made me think about what it revealed about me. In the future, I’ll be more mindful about that.

The story is based on a real relationship I had with a woman in college (let’s call her Sarah), and the basic story is true — about our long friendship ultimately ending up in bed. Of course the story about our first time is invented (except for the line “WHAT ARE YOU DOING?!?!?”). And obviously, I don’t know what was going on in her head, but I’m very sure that she was in love with me.

Writing from her point of view was a challenge, but not that hard, but I have no idea if I did it well. What did you think about my portrayal of her thoughts? Was I in the realm of real or was I way off base (remember, she was a virgin)? Was it just what a man hopes that a woman was thinking? I’m pretty sure the deep throat ending was quite unrealistic, but it was the best ending that I tried.

If you give me some insights or edits, I may revise the story.

BTW, I’ve kept in touch with Sarah on and off for the last 40 years.

My sex life is unchanged — still just me and Rosie Palms. I’m off AM for now, but I’ve made a few contacts using a Facebook app, but none have gone anywhere. (I’d appreciate hearing your point of view about a couple of cases where I hurt women’s feelings.) I’m meeting someone promising this weekend.

How about you? Any luck?

Let’s meet soon. Let me know if you have time Friday or Sunday.
