Now possibly alzheimers disease in setting in, but I recall the decade beginning in the late 70s and running through at least the first half of the 80s as a time when getting laid was impossibly easy. It was casual sex, the classic sport fuck without commitment or expectations and prior to both 'Fatal Attraction' and heterosexual AIDS.
I was in my late twenties and thirties and had a very well paying, straight, unlimited commission, executive level sales job which required quite a bit of travel. I possessed all of the essential trappings of the successful sales executive. I was a good looking young guy, I dressed well in overpriced designer suits, drove a late model German luxury sedan and worked in an industry flush with attractive women. I was married to the job; the harder I worked the more money I made. Sadly, I didn't have time for a wife or kids and was too damned busy for a serious relationship.
Interestingly, my never ending search for hot young pussy to keep me entertained on the road led to me meeting the woman I finally married at the ripe old age of thirty-six. The timing couldn't have been more perfect; casual sex toward the second half of the 80s had become dangerous. Maybe more important, I'd lost the thrill of, "find 'em, feel 'em, fuck 'em and forget 'em" and was ready to fall in love and settle down with someone I enjoyed talking to the next morning.
Back then the scenery was always exquisite and, at least in the places I spent time, it was a target rich environment. I'll admit I wasn't always particular; I don't distinctly remember fucking any outright pigs but I did do a plumper or two. I wasn't alone; my peers in the industry in all likelihood were making out better than I was.
I knew a guy named Ted who had a little black book; he could dial three or four numbers late in the afternoon in damned near any city in the country and have a date for dinner and more within an hour or so. He fixed me up a couple of times; they were always young, hot, looking for a good time and ready to fuck in return for an elegant evening and a four star meal. Many were decidedly, "shop girls"; you fuck 'em but you don't marry 'em.
I flew and drove in my travels. I drove in those parts of the country that just weren't well serviced by the airlines. I liked to just drive until I either got to the small town or city in which I had an appointment the following day or knew I needed to stop for the night. I stayed at mid range motor inns, but in small town America; they're often the best accommodations in town. I paid my own expenses and seldom went hog wild on motel accommodations.
My first target was always the girl at the check in desk; if she was fine and seemed interested and got off work at any sort of reasonable time, I went for it. Pretty lazy, huh? If the motor inn had a bar or restaurant, that was my next stop. A nearby mall or shopping center was always a worthwhile investigation.
I once went into one of those one hour optical chains because the blond optician on duty, visible through the glass store front, was absolutely sweet and ordered a pair of new reading glasses to replace the ones I had lost. I hadn't lost them; they were out in the car in my jacket pocket. She was young with a soft layer of blond peach fuzz covering every inch of her sweet young face. I worked my magic while waiting for my glasses. She wasn't very sexually experienced but easily made up for her lack of expertise with sheer enthusiasm.
Decent restaurants close to where I was staying were always good places to seek out another traveling business person of the female persuasion, a bar tender or waitress. Bars, per se, were always at the bottom of my list. So, this is a story about my favorite one, an unusual encounter and a very special and unexpected dalliance.
A few times in my life I've met a young woman who just looks at you on first meeting with unmistakable interest. You know she wants to fuck you; she's a little cutie with a big smile and all the come ons.
I checked into a nice little motel in a small city/big town in South Georgia one night. It was privately owned but had been highly recommended by several other people who traveled this part of the country. I pulled up just at 11:00 PM, just as the girl at the front desk was locking the door. I smiled, pleaded and look desperate and she unlocked the door for me.
"We normally lock the door at 11:00. Most of our guests at this time of the year are regulars and they've all checked in. How can I help you?"
I told her I had a business meeting in town the next day and all of my friends had told me this was absolutely the best place to stay. She smiled, pushed the registration card in my direction and asked if I wanted smoking or non-smoking. I told her the meeting the following day might run late and I might need to stay over. Additionally I told her that I might need to meet some people and would really prefer a larger room.
"Well we actually have a two room suite, it's really nice. It has a big desk, a fireplace and a hot tub. But it's pretty expensive; it's seventy-nine dollars a night."
Seventy-nine dollars a night was about what you'd pay for a single room in a crappy Marriott---twice that in a major city. I dropped my Platinum AMEX card and driver's license in front of her and said. "That'll be great!" Then I started to check her out.
A little over five-six, nice tits busting out of a tight little button up blouse, short blond hair, a hint of freckles not a speck of makeup, nicely formed hips and big, big, wide set blue eyes. Oh yea, this'll work. I started the patter as I filled out the registration, asking her about where she was from and such.
She was attending a small private college in town. She was from another small, old historic Southern town two hundred miles north which hinted at old southern family. I asked her about school, what she was studying, what she enjoyed. We were getting along famously. The smile was growing bigger, perfect white teeth, the eye lashes were batting, the hair was flipping. Finally I asked her if there was anyplace I could get a decent meal at this time of night and just for a second, the smile was replaced with a frown.
"No, not really, everything closes by 11:00." She thought for a moment and then the smile was back. "You know there's a real nice little market not far from here which stays open till midnight...more for the college kids than anything else. And your room has a pretty complete kitchen. The market is more than just a 7-eleven; they've got fresh meat and produce and a pretty decent wine selection. Pardon my manners; I'm Kayla."
