okay this is gonna make me look like a freak...but oh well
at first it was because of intimacy issues. i wanted the sex, but not the torment of courtship that came with it. so pooning kind of gave me the quick fix. but as i got older and wiser i learned to fake it. i tell my friends that with each girl i go out with it gets easier and easier to lie to them. at first they scoffed, but i have a couple of friends who have noticed the same thing.
i'm pretty sure now it's just compulsion. maybe even instinct. and the eerie thing for me now is that i've noticed it goes in cycles for me. its the worst for me when during the periods leading up to and including a full moon. it's almost impossible to ignore. not to the point of jonesing for it, but enough to be a disruption of some sort. enough to warrant the need for distraction. you would not believe the gizmos and gadgets i have lying around that have come about simply resisting the urge to go out and poon.
but when the urge breaks through? pooning isn't even the high point anymore. the high is the events leading to it, and more so the moments afterwards.
typically it goes like this:
*confirm appointment
*confirm plan B appointment
*wash truck (i even do this in the winter, regardless of the weather)
*pick out music and burn to a cd
*set out clothes
*pick out shoes (i have dozens)
*shit, shower, shave. (always "manscape" the night before)
*get dressed
*double check pooner bag (see below)
*drive to appointment
*park (this is the funnest part for me)
*arrive at house/condo whatever.
*cancel plan b in the elevator (plan b turns into plan a next go round)
*play time*
afterwards...
*eat (this is the only wild card, because i can't really decide until im out the door)
*go shopping (usually cd's or dvd's. usually its HMV downtown, or a best buy, lately it's been shoes.)
*meet up with buddies for drinks. (Mr Blonde recommends the Black Tooth Grin. A shot of Seagrams 7, a shot of Crown, and a splash of coke (just enough to blacken it up.)
the whole ordeal is a tad anal (no pun intended) but it's where the rush if for me. it's weird, because now that i've actually written it down, and looked at it, it's almost like a religious ceremony. it's weird because i've actually timed things down to the minute. if i'm downtown and i've had to use a parking meter i'm usually back at my truck with exactly 1 minute to spare. (which is almost a climax after a climax for me.)
if you're wondering what a "pooner bag" is. allow me to explain.
The pooner bag serves two purposes. The first is it carries the essentials.
*mouth wash
*a ziplock bag of black wine gums (don't ask)
*condoms
*Aveeno hand cream
*a cologne or body spray of some sort
*1 pre-paid cell phone
*a dummy wallet
*a "toy" of some sort. usually an old ipod, psp, or nintendo ds
*fake car keys
Obviously the "pooner bag" also serves as a MacGuffin. If you're in a sticky situation your "pooner bag" and the contents inside motivate any unsavoury characters you might have a run in with, but have little or no meaning to you.
*on my pre-paid cell phone i have loved ones phone numbers (with a misplaced digit,) restaurants, and phone numbers for girls i've seen or will see. you put numbers on your phone for two reasons. one, if it's stolen WHILE you're pooning, the thief will sort through it and it actually appears to be your primary phone. if you're in a situation where you have your back against the wall, the phone in your bag gives whoever has the drop on you the comfort of knowing he has some sort of leverage on you. two, if you're out with friends or family and they decide to get snoopy about the phone sitting in your glove box/pooner bag, the casual snoop sees your normal everyday phone and doesn't think anything of it. (your pooner phone MUST match your real life phone, just as your pooner bag should match the pants or jacket you're wearing to your appointment

)
*dummy wallet: Your dummy wallet is probably the most valuable object in your pooner bag (second only to condoms.) In my dummy wallet I keep a dozen or so fake business cards, a pair of **cancelled** credit cards, a bank card (i have a separate bank account and keep a balance of 80 bucks or so on it. this way if i'm in a situation where someone's demanding a PIN number i can do so with the comfort of being able to say that there's money in the account, but he isn't going to like the balance. a bit of extra cash on top of the donation doesn't hurt either. once again...other then the cash involved, motivation for a scumbag, little or no meaning for me. this set up is also a good idea if you're traveling abroad, rather then nailing one.
*fake car keys. this one is going to seem a little odd. but i leave my real keys, real wallet, and real cell phone in my vehicle. (the way my truck is set up, no one can get into it but me) on the key ring i throw on a couple of old house keys, an old car alarm remote, and some stupid little trinket that makes me look a bit more human. the whole idea is while some scumbag is out looking for an Acura, he's too busy to notice me driving off in my Chevy.
*a "toy" of some sort. This is pretty simple. I used to use a PSP. Because I was running around on Skytrain a lot and it helped pass the time. But lately it's just an old Ipod. Aside from the fact I like my tune-age, coupled with the dummy wallet, dummy cell phone, and other odds and ends the stuff in your pooner-bag makes for a pretty good haul for a scumbag should you find yourself in a sticky situation.
