Tomais Waves His Wand...

Expecto Patronum!
"Expecto Patronum!" by Tomais Ashdene

My precious, geeky and sweet husband Tomais is a big fan of J.K. Rowling's Harry Potter. Here he is casting a spell to invoke his patronus.

Can you see which animal it is? I had to guess several times before Tomais told me...

Speedtest

Seriously F*c*book?!

At the very least Tomais account is disabled at the moment, and why F*c*book would do this when he is registered under his first life identity is a mystery.

As Sister Roma of The Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence said, when F*c*book forced her to change her name to her real identity (Michael Williams): "Here’s a newsflash for you, FB: There are a million reasons why someone would choose to self-identify with a name other than the one that’s printed on their birth certificate. And really, it’s absolutely none of your business in the first place."

Like Moths To A Flame

I don't consider myself to be that much to look at in my first life, but recent incidents on my daily train travels between my work and home seem to indicate that I now have suddenly become attractive to certain sections of the gay or bisexual male population who are roughly half my age.

Twice in the last two weeks I have been hit upon by quite handsome and much younger men. I think they must have a weird kink for middle-age men and I certainly don't feel particularly tempted to engage.

The incidents remind me of something my best friend, a straight man, told me recently about an encounter he had with a woman half his age.

My friend has always been popular among the ladies for his good looks and charming ways. He is single at the moment and was out on the town where he happened to meet a young woman in a bar. She supposedly hit on him really hard so after a few drinks and some talk they went back to my friends place for some heterosexual fornication.

All went exceedingly well at first up until the woman suddenly started telling him "F*ck me, you dirty old bastard!" and other things referring to his much older age. He confessed that he was so badly shocked by the verbal abuse that he completely lost the ability to continue performing.

Even though I may have reached an age that fulfills some younger men's kinky desires, I know I would not like to perceive myself - or being perceived by others, let alone someone I am having sex with - as a dirty or old man.  I don't think I will give in to their alluring charm, at least not without careful consideration. Besides, I have always been more attracted to men who are roughly the same age as I am.
