The Pitch: It's like Tempting Fate meets Bragging Outright!  

I'm happy to report it all came together. E. & I went and worked out, and then got our manicure/pedicures, the highlight of which were the little spa tubs we soaked our feet in while the massage chairs worked over our backs. My buttock massage wasn't working but I sure as hell wasn't going to say anything: the nail place was packed--six workers, ten customers--and I was the only guy there. The woman who did my nails kept giving me amused looks and then approving once-overs of Edi. It was a pretty uninterprable combo of looks, but I finally decided it was something like, "I'd never date a man who'd come here, but I admire how thoroughly the woman has broken your spirit." Of course, I was pretty self-conscious, so I may not have inferred correctly.

Now we're home and getting ready to grill up some tuna steaks and break out the corn on the cob. I know I'm all but asking the gods to come down and destroy me, but life, dammit, is good.
