Crusin' the Underground

I was reading The Fish's blog today at lunch when I ran across one of her posts called three. It brought me back to the one time when I was on vacation visiting my friend when she still lived in Maine, back in 1999.

There was a gay club in Portland, Maine that she had taken me to when I had first visited her in '97. I think it was called the Underground, but I'm not sure. It sounds good though so I'll just go with that since there is a gay club by that name actually there. Well, the next time I went out there I wanted to go back. I loved the energy of the club and all the people. There were a lot of men dressed up as women that looked better real women. It was great!

Eri and I were just there to drink, dance and have a good time. Not there looking to find any action, hell, we're in a gay club for fuck sake. And Eri is about as straight as you can get. Me on the other hand, this was way before I got back in touch with my lesbian side and I still had my long hair and at least still looked like a girl, so I had no thoughts one way or the other. I just wanted to go out to a club where I could just drink and have fun without being picked up on. I figured what a better place than at the gay club. This was to be the one vacation where all of the unusual was about to happen to me.

After dancing for awhile, Eri and I by the bar drinking a beer watching everyone on the dance floor. The next thing I know this guy walks up to me and starts talking into my ear. He points over to his wife who is on the dance floor looking at us, then he says to me that his wife likes me and mentions a threesome. I wasn't shocked but I was caught off gaurd to say the least. Shit like this does not normally happen to me. I graciously declined his offer and he walked back to his wife. I got a good look at his wife after he walked back to her, she was pretty hot. She looked over at me after her husband whispered to her and smiled. I smiled back and mouthed a sorry to her, and that is where it ended.

After the husband had left Eri asked me what that was all about and I told her. Eri just shook her head laughing and said "Only you, T! Only you!" Like shit like that happened to me a lot. Hardly! I had to laugh too, though. I remember telling her that I would have done the wife if her husband was out of the picture.

My little indecent proposal wasn't anything like The Fish's, no names were exchanged and I don't even think blogs really existed then (did they??), but it still puts a smile on my face and makes me laugh at the one time I was approached by a total stranger, in a gay club at that, to be asked to be part of a husband and wife tag team night of unbridled sex. Hell, if I was to go into a gay club now I'd probably get picked up by full on lesbians. Hmmm... I'm just right across the Bay Bridge from San Francisco. I always did love going into the Castro District. Maybe I'll have to try getting out to The Cafe or Badlands one of these nights. It could make for an intersting blog!
