"I think I might be going through a mid-life crisis."Grinning, she feather kissed his lips. "May I go through it with you?"He nodded. "I'd like that v...ry much."Mid-way through their burgers and fries, Jack stopped eating, propped his right elbow on the table and watched Erin as she swallowed a fry.The torrential downpour outside the windows, combined with thunder, made for a cozy atmosphere in Carrie's Corner, and they hadn't talked very much as they sat across from each other in the back. Here they come. I swear that I have never seen such sloppy soldering as that exhibited by the Erglets. Could it be that they still didn’t know that we had also taken a dose of the Water of Life?The Erglets advanced at a casual walk without couching their tridents. They must have been expecting us to run as soon as we were approached by the Grampets. Well, we were going to surprise them pretty damned soon.Jim shouted, “COUCH PIKES!” and the command was repeated by each squad leader. I was. He and I first had intercourse a week before our wedding. I thought I would burn in hell for not waiting for our wedding night!” Ronnie burst out laughing.“Maire, how old are you?” she asked. I told her I was 30 years old and she was shocked. “Oh, my! I hope I look as good as you do when I’m 30.”I went on to tell her about getting a job at Susan’s Lingerie and how this opened-up new worlds for me. “I didn’t want to ruin our marriage by having affairs, but I was very interested in men and sex.”. We talked for a while after that. I assured him that I loved him nowmore than ever and that isn’t going to change. We have beenexploring our sexuality a lot lately and this was a manifestation ofthat. He has encouraged me to be a slut. He asked if I was going to see him again. I said “I’d like to” but not if it’s not okay with you. Hethought about it and said he didn’t mind as long as I didn’t hideanything from him. Our marriage took a different turn right there. Inow had an open license to.
