Night






Three AM woke me as it crept into my room.
Silence deafening like a low growling thunder. This was home a few months ago. Today my feet were clumsy slipping on ice a bit off beat, rubber soles freezing in temperature they weren't made for.
Temperatures I wasn't ever quite made for - the cold harshness kept me inside more than I enjoyed. Beside my old bed, the heather purred. I laid in the sheets, surprised and warm. I usually sleep through the night.
I stayed awake, and started to simply breathe. Lucky to be here, in the middle of packed boxes and plans with friends, glowing with gratefulness. 

Happy to be here
Happy to be going home soon

Before long, raindrops were falling on my window. I drifted back to sleep

I wanted to know how to ensure my personal safety, logistics of where to meet prospective guests, how to dress for an appointment... The list was endless! For the first hour we discussed getting starte...

If you ever want to see me search for words and put me ill at ease, ask for my menu. An itemized list of services or acts is so far from my vision of what I chose to offer as a companion that I don't know what to answer. A menu just doesn't seem to be a good standard to set - it strikes me as impersonal, and inadequate to establish if a meeting will be pleasant and fulfilling. If anything, I'm closer to a private chef than a crowded Yelp reviewed hot spot. If I prepare the same experience day in and day out, I'll get bored of it - and it risks becoming boring. So how do you make sure you'll be meeting up with someone who has the same tastes as you? Contrary to what many think, setting up a first encounter is simple enough, actually. Not very different of getting any other kind of first contact with someone - as long as politeness and respect are present, I'm personally very open to meeting with people of various backgrounds.  My open mindedness do...
