225 - room service

You know when you have a bad feeling? When there's a little bell ringing telling you something is up? A tingle up your spine letting you know to be alert?

I felt that last night after being with M. I had the room to myself and felt frustrated as I usually do after spending time with him. I cant decide if its a good fristration or not. Thats for another post. He had to get something in his car he says. He took his things and was off.

Here comes the start of the tug of something not right. Takes everything he brought with him. He even asked me if I wanted anything and I just mentioned a bottle of water would be nice. Usually hell have things with him and have drinks poured. Not this time. He calls me from his car as he was driving back. Apologizing, letting me know that he had to take care of something and was important.

My Lie Radar went off and I didn't say anything on the phone for a minute and surprisingly I was pretty calm. Imagined his nether regions spontaneously combusting, that made me feel better. First time I thought of that and it made me smile and have a mental giggle. I didn't share that with him though. I just listened to his half arsed excuses and looked around the room and enjoyed the view. Fabulous view.

He throws out that he might be back in about 30 minutes and if I am hungry to order something from room service. Oh you bet Ill order something from room service. @$$..

I know the following will make me look like a complete witch but I didn't put out all the details of what happened and you don't need to know. It hasn't registered as funny to me so Ill save it until it does seem funny.. then its OK for me to share. Deal?

Here's what I had for dinner.

I can tell you that room service was excellent, food was excellent and I had a fantastic time enjoying the 22nd floor view of the Parliament buildings and of The Supreme Court etc, which I dutifully enjoyed au naturel. Walking around in a robe was great and even more decadent was walking around the hotel room naked with all the blinds pulled open.

The balcony, spacious and clean made for a great place to enjoy dinner.

Now, I know hell get the bill soon enough. Ill feel guilty over it later on. I know, how can I sleep at night? Like a baby. Maybe an addition to the woodchipper...
