Small house/birthday party

Last night Jo and I went to an interesting house party. Interesting in that it wasn’t really what I think of a sex party. It was more of a party where it was okay to have sex. The house was a little small to have much of a party. There was one bedroom that was okay and another bedroom that was small and had a lot of stuff in it that took up most of the room. The living room, dining room, and kitchen were the socialization area and wasn’t really conducive to being a play area.

We just barely knew about half of the people there and so we, with the permission of the hosts, invited two other couples we knew. Trevor & Kathleen and Jack & Danielle. Jack and & Danielle weren’t able to attend but Trevor and Kathleen made it.

We socialized with everyone for a couple hours. It was a birthday party and the “birthday boy” was put in a chair and many of the women came up to him, kissed him, and touched him in various ways. His girlfriend who arranged the surprise party is experienced in the lifestyle but it appeared to me he wasn’t entirely comfortable with this sort of behavior.

After the birthday boy chair stuff Jo and Trevor started doing a lot of kissing. The Kathleen and I kind of drifted off to the edge of the group, did some touching and kissing, and then signaled to Jo and Trevor we were going to the bedroom. Jo and Trevor joined us. It was very hot and even with the window open it was uncomfortable. The bed was too narrow for all four of us and it just wasn’t the best environment.

Jo and Trevor seemed to have a pretty good time but things just weren’t working for me. After Jo and Trevor were finished I played with Jo then collapsed in a puddle of sweat. We cuddled for a while, put on our clothes, said good-bye to everyone, and left about midnight.

It was nice enough but we probably wouldn’t go back until after they complete the remodeling they plan to do to make it into a place almost specifically intended for sex parties.

Just one couple can make the difference

Last night we went to Club Topaz again. We were going to be gone for the weekend and decided to try out a Friday party even though we knew there would be a lot more people on Saturday.

We arrived about 7:30 and even though we didn’t expect a lot of people present we were disappointed in the number of people present. It didn’t take long for Jo to start talking about writing off Friday parties as well as Wednesday parties. We sat on the couch near the door so we could see people as they arrived. There wasn’t anyone of interest but a young guy stopped by to talk for a while.

He asked if we were from Club Pyrite and we told him yes. He welcomed us and told us how much he was going to miss the club, etc., etc. He asked what we thought of Club Topaz and we told him we were disappointed in the lack of people on Wednesday and Friday nights. He told us it only takes one couple or even one person to make the difference between a wonderful time and a complete disappointment. While true, the odds are that if there aren’t very many people present the “one couple” is less likely to be there as well. He told Jo how beautiful she was and that helped brighten up the evening some for her.

After talking for a while Jo went to the bar to get a drink while I got a snack from the food table. When I went to find her she was talking with another young man near the bar. He was too short for Jo to be interested in as a playmate but there wasn’t anyone else there who was remotely interesting either. It turns out he was a mechanical engineering student working on a quad-copter drone for a photographing plant life. I found that interesting and chatted for quite a while. Then, probably about 8:30 or so, I saw Calvin and Jerri (see here, here, here, and here) across the room. I waved at them and they came over and joined us at the table where we were still talking to the ME student.

We all chatted for quite a while and after a hearing several times that 22 years old was much too young for either of the women the ME student wandered off to check on his girlfriend. At one point Jo wandered off to get water from the bar which was to my back. Calvin commented that Jo was kissing the ME student. What? Interesting… After a while Jo came back and reported that she was just testing him. He passed the kissing test but he was still much too young.

There was a new couple at a table next to us and I’m not sure if it was Jerri or Calvin who invited the blond woman to our table when she was there alone while waiting for her partner to come back from a snack run or something. She looked a bit on the young side too. But her partner was probably close to our age. But Jo didn’t care for his physical appearance even the young woman had been interested in me. There was a lot of touching going on between Calvin, Jerri, Jo, and I with some of kissing between Jo and both Jerri and Calvin. We talked to the third couple and found they were very new to the lifestyle and not really sure what they were looking for yet.

Ultimately Jerri asked me, “Are you interested playing?” I told her I was very interested and checked with Barb who was somewhat involved with Calvin at the moment. She agreed and after Jerri told the woman of the third couple she and Calvin would be back for the party the next evening and would like to see them again the four of us went into the play area together.

Jerri with help from Calvin gave Jo a lot of attention for many minutes. Jerri ate on her for a long time as Calvin kissed and stroked Jo’s breasts. I used my fingers and hands on Jerri’s pussy and breasts at the same time. After much gasping and many shudders Jerri turned her attention to me and changed positions so I could eat on her easier as well. Calvin put on a condom and Jo had sex with him while on top then after a while Calvin got on top. I put on a condom and fucked Jerri at the same time. I wasn’t able to get a full erection and didn’t come and shortly after Jo and Calvin finished I stopped with Jerri as well. After a minute or so of cuddling Jo scooted over closer to me and we started having sex. Jerri reached in and massaged my scrotum and penis. I quickly got a full erection and after a few minutes asked Jerri if she wanted to try again. She said, “Sure!” and so I put on another condom and had sex with her as Calvin watched and Jo kissed Jerri’s breasts.

After Jerri and I finished we all lay around and talked for a few minutes before putting on our clothes and returning to the socialization area. Jo and I decided it was time to leave since it was getting close to midnight and we planned to leave fairly early the next morning. Jerri and Calvin had gone out ahead of us and as we left we saw Jerri dancing with the young blond woman. It was pretty clear Jerri was attracted to her and had plans to play with her sometime.

It was nearly 1:00 AM by the time Jo and I were home in bed but we had sex again before going to sleep and again this morning.

Wednesday Party dearth

Jo and I decided we really needed to check out the Wednesday parties at Club Topaz. We arrived about 7:30 (they open at 7:00) and there were only a few people there. We asked what time people started showing up and we were told people are still arriving at 9:00 or later.

We wandered around a bit and then while I picked up a few snacks at the food table Jo fixed herself a drink and started talking to a single guy. I joined them and we talked for probably 45 minutes or so. It was a pleasant conversation but the guy was too short to be someone Jo was interested in.

A few more people had arrived and Jo said we need to go talk to some other people. We saw a nice looking couple sitting on a couch and joined them. They were brand new to the lifestyle and the woman told us the extent of their interest at this time was to be in the same room with another people as everyone was having sex. This isn’t what we are looking for but out of the probably 30 people or so there we didn’t have any other prospects so we continued to talk to them about kids, jobs, etc.

Eventually the other couple went into the play area by themselves and we discussed whether to go home and have sex or go into the play area for sex. I wanted to stay but Jo was just as inclined to go home.

We eventually went into one of the play area where there were three other couple, including the couple from the couch, and we had sex together there. After we finished and were putting on our clothes the woman from the couch told me she was sorry they just got up and left without saying good-bye. I told her it wasn’t a big deal and maybe we would see them again sometime.

Jo and I went home and agreed we didn’t need to attend a Wednesday party for a long time, if ever.

Catching up again

I’ve been incredibly busy with things and haven’t found the time to blog about things so it’s catch up time again.

March 4th, Jo and I visited Jeff and Mindy at their place again. We sat around and talked and drank some wine for a while then we went upstairs to separate rooms again. It’s what they like best so we can do that. We had a nice time with them. They are very pleasant to talk to and very enthusiastic about the sex.

March 14th we went to Club Topaz for their Saint Patrick’s Day party. We saw quite a few people we knew from Club Pyrite. They appear to be migrating as Club Pyrite shuts down. We saw Kane there. He was the first guy Jo ever played (other than me) with at a sex club. He was with two women, Kasey and Ursa. Kasey was six feet tall and really caught my attention even though she was a bit on the heavy side. Ursa was very nice and showed an interest in me but she was a bit on the short side and much heavier than Kasey. I wasn’t that interested in her.

Kasey and I did a lot of flirting which developed into touching and kissing. It was interesting to me that this was her first visit to a sex club yet she was really into it. It was Uriah’s second visit and again, really enthusiastic about the club.

Jo and I were invited to play with the three of them but Jo wasn’t really interested in playing with either of the women and wasn’t sure how it could work out with two guys and three women so she told me to go have fun and she would be okay.

Kane, Kasey, Ursa and I went off to one of the orgy rooms to play. I was with Kasey and Kane was with Ursa. I was somewhat worried about Jo and even though Kasey tried hard and was very enthusiastic I didn’t cum. The four of us laid around and talked for a while then Kasey and Kane started playing and I went over to be with Ursa. Again, lots of enthusiasm from Ursa but I couldn’t really get into. After chatting a bit I excused myself to go check on Jo.

I found Jo in one of the small play rooms with Mick and Michelle. I left without her noticing me and returned to the orgy room with Kane, Kasey, and Ursa. Not too long after Jo found me and we has sex together in the orgy room.

April 18th we went to Club Pyrite. There were a lot of people there. Something like 250. We enjoyed talking to several different couples but no one who was a good match. We ended up going into the play area together and searching for any bed space to play. We finally settled for narrow slice of a mattress in a big orgy room. It was nice watching and listening to all the other people but we didn’t stay long after we finished. There were lots of other people looking for play space too.

April 25th we went to Club Diamond. From the RSVP list Jo knew that “the tall woman you like” was going to be there. That would be Toni. She is a 5’ 11” blonde, smart, and interesting to talk to. We had seen her there before and I had talked to her for quite a while but Jo had no interest in her husband so we didn’t pursue it. This time Jo suggested we mingle on our own then get back in touch with each other before playing with anyone.

I made a beeline for Toni and hung around for a bit as she was talking to another woman. The other woman introduced herself to me and I to her then I turned to Toni and said you’re Toni. She was surprised. She didn’t remember me at all and was impressed that I remembered her. I told her a few other things I remembered about her and her smile got bigger. She asked how I could remember all that. I told her it was because I was very interested in her. We talked for a long while and it developed into some touching and a hug. She eventually excused herself to go have a cigarette and I went to find Jo. She had been kissing Jack and Ben but things didn’t seem to develop much further. She didn’t see anyone of interest and suggested we go to Club Topaz. That was a long drive back and I kind of wanted to stay there. We agreed to stay a while longer.

I eventually asked Toni if she wanted to play with me. She told me they didn’t usually play at the club. They like to make things a little more personal, “But that might change in 30 minutes.” Jo and I wandered around and talked to some more people. Jo asked Danielle if she and Jack were interested in playing with us. I had talked to her for quite a while but it wasn’t about sex and there wasn’t any flirting going on. That might have soured it because she told Jo they didn’t think so. Finally we went into the play area when it seemed pretty clear nothing was changing with Toni.

The play area was packed. We finally put a sheet down on a thick rug and played on the floor. Jackie was on one of the beds having sex with some guy and reached out and touched me as I was taking off my clothes. I smiled and said hi. She finished went off to the bathroom while Jo and I were having sex. From the bathroom she called out to us, “That’s a party foul!” We didn’t know what she meant. She meant that having sex with your spouse was, “Against the rules.” Not really but she was teasing us.

After we finished we decided to go home. As we were drifting toward the door and saying our goodbyes Ben came up to us and suggested we stay a while longer. We declined because of the long drive home and it was getting late. He asked to stay while he went to get Jackie so she could say goodbye too. She expressed her disappointment and held up her lingerie exposing everything from just below her breasts down and asked, “Are you sure I couldn’t distract you?” I would like have liked to play with her and Jo was interested in Ben as well but it just wasn’t going to work out for us so we said goodbye and went home.

I think there was another party at Club Topaz we went to as well. But nothing much of interest happened apart from talking to some old friends.

Helen Fisher: Why we love, why we cheat

This TED talk may help explain why the lifestyle is so appealing to us:

The take away quote is:

Millions of years ago, we evolved three basic drives: a sex drive, romantic love, and attachment to a long-term partner. These circuits are deeply embedded in the human brain.

These are independent drives. They are complimentary and at times contradictory. I find it may just explain a lot of things.

I found this via Justin J. Lehmiller.

Happy endings

Last night was the retirement party for the founder of Club Pyrite. There will be a few more parties but due to scheduling issues this party was the best for this theme. They named the party “Happy endings”.

The party was sold out so Jo and I arrived shortly after the gate to the parking area opened. We still had to park further away than we usually do.

The party was nice but there was only one couple that we were really interested in and they have frequently ignored us in the past. This time was no exception. They would walk past us without making eye contact. It was as if we did not exist. Very odd.

We had a nice dinner talking to another couple from out of state. They had been in the lifestyle for many years but besides the man being way too short to be of interest to Jo they were only interested in soft swap. Another couple showed up at the table who were much younger than us and new to the lifestyle. They had a lot of questions and we answered and gave advice as best we could.

Paul and June were there and made it very clear they were interested in playing with us but the more we get to know Paul the more we want to keep our distance. June became very intoxicated which didn’t help things any.

We went into the play area by ourselves about 9:30 and it was packed. We were only able to find one end of the big bed in the mirror room available. The other people on the bed were of no interest to us but we had sex with each other and watched the others play. After we were all done the other people on the bed were replace by “The Mechanics”. We watched for a little while then went home.

Mardi Gras party

Even though I have been attending Club Pyrite for decades I had never been to one of their Mardi Gras parties. Because of the scarcity of the remaining parties and the large number of people planning to attend Jo and I attended.

It was interesting. The people attending had a lot of energy and even though we only played with each other we had a pretty good time talking with friends and throwing beads to the women flashing their breasts on the balconies.

It was a little surreal because due to recent complaints to the state liquor control board women had to be wearing pasties such that their nipples weren’t showing in the area were alcohol was being consumed. What? For decades people at the club have been on the dance floor in the same area wearing little more than shoes. This is a sex club! Who could be a member of this club and complain about exposed nipples?

I’m glad I was able to attend the last Mardi Gras party. It was fun with a strong mixture of frustration and sadness.

Sunday party desolation

Saturday night, Valentines Day, was a large party with several hundred people. Jo and I were pretty much wiped out by our volunteering and didn’t participate in the party. So Sunday night we attended for our own benefit.

There were perhaps 20 or 30 participants and no one of particular interest to us. We played with each other on “the perch” and watched some others having sex then went home.

Valentines Day marathon

Jo and I attended the Valentine’s Day party at Club Pyrite as volunteer drink servers. We arrived at 6:00 PM for the pre-event briefing. Jo had 10 tables of six people each and in a different section I had three tables of six people each. As you might imagine Jo was pretty much overwhelmed. I helped out occasionally by pouring water and once with complying with a request for a long passionate kiss from Tanya who was at one of Jo’s tables.

We were supposed to do bed monitor duty starting at 9:00 PM but the nine (!) course meal went way long and we didn’t finish with the serving of drinks until 10:00 at which time we had to start with our first shift closing duties. This entails stacking of chairs and other clean up in the dining area. It was nearly midnight when we finished and we were too tired from the stress to be interested in finding someone to play with.

I had an event to attend early the next morning about a half hour in the opposite direction from home so Jo went home alone in her car and I spent the night in the sleeping area at the club.

It has been years since I spent the entire night at the club and it was interesting to see about a third of the beds still occupied in the play area the next morning. There were a lot of cars in the parking lot too.

I also found it very interesting that the event I went to the next morning was something completely unrelated to sex and that one of the other participants was Kenny (see here for more details) who I had met at Club Pyrite many years ago.
