Okay... I have to admit that the four beers I had at the hockey game tonight and the subsequent visit to the men's adult entertainment club have left me tired - not drunk - just tired.
It's 1AM now, and a couple of hours ago while I sat in a puddle of cheap perfume staring at these young women, all I could think of, was "I wonder if I screwed your mother?"
Twenty years ago, after arriving back in Toronto after three years in Japan, my confidence level regarding women had gone through the proverbial roof, and I was dating exotic dancers (and the Feature dancers), not to mention waitresses at strip clubs.
Perhaps some of what I was going through had to do with the fact that I had just left Nobuko behind - our relationship doomed because she was too afraid to come here for a visit because she knew it would upset her father... so I said screw all that - we broke up, and I went out and screwed all that.
Sad but true - though I am impressed that again, while I gave my phone number to these women - they called me eight out of 10 times. The best was a waitress at a strip club. Holy crap. These women see all manner or depravity and grossness that a man can barf up at these places - and after a couple of visits, soon we were in the back of her car during an unauthorized break.
This went on every time I came back. I didn't know she was married. Strangely enough, even when I found it, it didn't bother me - and in fact I felt better because now I knew WHY our relationship was purely physical and not emotional.
A guy could get used to that...
My time with Nobuko left me an emotional wreck - so it was nice not to have to think with my heart or brain.
And yet - 20 years later - all I can do is think with my heart and brain.
Thanks for listening to my ramble.
HERE. Go and check out some wild and wooly Japanese commercials that are wholly unrelated to my evening.
Cheers
