Imagine you were in a relationship and decided to “fool around” with someone, without your partner’s permission.  Now imagine you came home only to discover that the mark on your neck wasn’t from your partner. Well last night, Roxy and I had a date with our regular couple friends and this morning, Roxy got a text from the “other woman” that she was laughing to the effect that I left a mark…as apparently I had done once before.  Now to be honest, I can’t really remember the moment that it happened, though it is entirely possible within the scheme of things that I was the culprit. Either way, it leaves me a little uncomfortable.

I am not uncomfortable because of the mark on “her” neck, rather that I may have inadvertently upset Roxy as a result.  This is one of those little intricacies in swinging that you just can’t foresee and therefore just don’t ever talk about before it actually happens.  Roxy is out this afternoon but I am sure she doesn’t have an issue with it. I just want to hear that from her mouth before making my own assumptions a reality.

On the topic of last night, we did have a lot of fun, though the night started and was almost cut short as a result of our two kids sleeping out at their grandparent’s place and not wanting to go to sleep.  It was a close call, but right now I am sitting in bed typing this as my son naps beside me to make up for the lack of sleep he got last night (and selfishly I get to watch World Cup soccer/football) while he sleeps.

So the rest of the month is pretty full for us, though we have about 5-6 emails to respond to from the past few weeks.  Lately Roxy and I have not had time to sit together and reply to other couples which, I must say, is something I really enjoy doing.  While I may be the more aggressive in terms of driving the search for others, it truly is more fun when we do it “together”.
