Well, things here are the "Home" sure wasn't what I expected, but it sure has been fun! It has been a couple of days since I met up with Mike. Wondering what sort of thing will happen this upcoming weekend.
It is the third Friday of the month, and that means it is "social hour" at the home or as the residents call it, "happy hour". Every third Friday of the month, the Home has a get together for all the residents. There is entertainment; usually it is a singer who brings his computerized music and a guitar. Plays the "oldies" from the 50s and 60s most of the time. There is beer, wine and you can bring your own bottle of whatever if you want, mixers are available, and snacks of various kinds. Have a small space if people want to dance.
This is the first time that I am attending this "social hour", looking forward to meeting up with some of the friends I have made since moving in, and hopefully meeting new ones! I see Dave sitting at a table, with him is a lady. I came over, asked if I could join them, and was given the okay. Dave introduces me to Helen, and I take a seat. Helen is sipping on a glass of wine, while Dave & I are having a beer.
Just general conversation, Mike stops by the table says "hi" and sits at the table next to us, with a couple of other guys. Helen says she is going to the "powder room" and off she goes. Dave leans over and says, "What do you think of Helen?"
I replied, "Well she seems nice, not bad looking, and obviously she is our age!"
"Yeah" says Dave, "she can be real nice, if you know what I mean. She knows about our private little parties, and has even joined in on occasion. Sometimes, she just wants to watch, think it turns her on." Dave tells me that Helen is widowed, and has been at the Home for almost 2 years now.
"Wow that sure sounds interesting, hope she thinks that I'm okay."
Helen comes back, we are having a drink or two, and her and Dave get up and dance together. I turn to the other table where Mike is sitting. He introduces me to Gene and Max. Max, a heavy set African-American, shakes my hand, and says, "Hope we can get together sometime" and Gene tells me the same thing. I'm thinking that this could be something to look forward to!
Helen and Dave come back, and another lady is with them, and I'm introduced to Gloria. Her hair is quite grey, almost white and quite petite in size. She joins us, and we talk about life at the home. We even get up and dance together to one of the "slow" oldies that are being played.
However, all good things must come to an end, and the entertainer is putting his equipment away, and the residents are starting to head back to their apartments. Helen and Gloria stand up to leave, and Helen says that she wouldn't mind meeting up for more socializing in the future, and Gloria adds "We do like the company of men you know" gives a wink and off they go.
Just as I'm getting up to leave Gene asks if I have any plans for the weekend. Tell him no, and he invites me to his place to play dominoes on Saturday afternoon, tells me that Max and another guy will be there too. I say "Sure" and head off to my apartment.
It is Saturday afternoon, and I go up to Gene's apartment, he is on the second floor. Knock on the door, Gene opens it, but kind of hiding behind it, and tells me to come in. I enter and see that Gene is standing there in the nude, and sitting are a small round dining table is Max and another guy, also in the nude. "Come on in and get comfortable, we do this all the time" says Gene. Max makes note "We are sort of nudist enthusiasts you might say" and points to the chair next to him.
Well, not wanting to spoil the scene, I slip off my shoes and then strip down; Gene takes my clothes and puts them on a different chair. I'm then introduced to Alfredo, he tells me to call him Al. He kind of gives me a good looking over before I sit down at the table with them. Gene asks if I would like something to drink, and he brings me a Coke.
