Adventures in Adventuring

Oct 21, 2006

I had an excellent time last night adventuring with a pair of lovely ladies doing some things which I’m reticent to detail for fear of incrimination, but you may contact me for details.

I was quite pleased at Boriana being game for the adventure and also for her keeping with it all the way through. She had told me beforehand that she needed to be done by 10:00, so when we surfaced around 9:30 or so she headed home. She kept up the pace and went along with everything, though.

I was similarly pleased at Kat (“cute girl” to Oliver) being available and also being as much fun as she was, though not particularly surprised. Hanging out with her reminds me of back home quite a bit. Columbians in general are fairly straightlaced mainstream types, and despite my whitebreadedness, I really feel more comfortable with a more counterculture element. That’s probably why I like GS people so much. It’s good to have some of that outside GS again.

It’s funny to think about the number of circles in which I participate, and my varying levels of comfort in each. I’ve found that I’m something of a chameleon in personality, I can adjust to fit in with pretty much whatever group I’m in. I operate just fine whether among corporate suits, academics, geeks, potheads, or goths. However, I find that I enjoy myself more when the sarcasm, intelligence, and childish spirit are emphasized, which is sometimes hard to find, so I’m glad I appear to have found the beginnings of an outlet for that here.
