Bachelor for 2 Nights

[canyonwalker]

I'm a bachelor for the next 2 nights. Well, not technically. I'm still married. But my wife is away on a business trip, so I'm leading the life of a bachelor tonight and tomorrow night.

Yes, she's back to business travel before I am! Her trip is a company offsite with other senior managers. My first business trip after a 2 year break is still 5 weeks away.

So, what am I doing with my pseudo-bachelor self? Honestly, little different than I'd do if my wife were here. I went shopping at the liquor store after work this afternoon. I was planning on doing that this weekend but the schedule didn't work out. When I got home from that I cooked myself dinner... or should I say, reheated leftovers. Tonight maybe I'll flip on the TV and see if I can find an interesting movie streaming. That's the one thing that would be different from an evening together.

I was going to laugh about his user pic being so obviously male, but then I actually looked at it again while trying not to specifically associate it with anyone. And I can definitely see how the pic could be someone of any gender identity (except for full-on frilly femme). As for me, I'm a fat old white guy.

Gender is pretty strange to me nowadays. I'm old enough that for most of my life things were quite binary, but young enough that hetero was not assumed of everyone. There are three or four people in one particular social circle of mine who are NB, but they all seem to be in various stages of a MtF transition now.

Can I ask where you know Canyonwalker from? My own assumptions (there's that word again!) were that most of his readers were from the Darkfriends social group from back-when, plus a few other folks that know him face-to-face, like me.

FWIW I hadn't looked closely enough to ID the userpic as a photo (rather than a cartoon, or a clipart, or what have you) and could have been persuaded that it was a still from a movie or something!

I know Canyonwalker entirely by accident --I saw a comment he made on one of Silmaril's entries back in November, and went "huh, this person seems interesting and has a public journal, I often want more journals to read on DW, let's follow for a while and see what's what". I haven't read everything from the last three months, but I've at least skimmed most of it and read over half --his voice is interesting!
