The MM Experience

As we journey through our 30s, are we looking for a good time or a long time?


Miss X hooked up with a dashing MM a few weeks ago. And we are talking about a good time not a long time. Once a week, straight forward agreement, no strings attached. The first few encounters were somewhat romantic, in a 4 star hotel, all very covet Carrie-esque a la SATC. She checks in first, he comes later or vice versa. Perfect arrangement. Up until 2 weeks ago. MM gave Miss X a link to book a hotel on a pre-arranged day. She does as she's told, rocks up to the venue 2 hours later to discover, it is infact a backpacker's hostel. Around about this time when she was telling me the story, I was rolling on the floor. So it has progressed from 4 stars to no stars in a matter of weeks! Looks promising indeed.

She goes ahead, reluctantly checks in, and fuming at the same time. Lucky she got a private room and not a bunk in a dorm. After checking in, Miss X, her heels, her LV bag and her newly purchased bottle of wine adjourned to the "private room", totally sticking out of the crowd like a sore thumb. The room looked decent so far. She had 2 hours to kill before MM arrived, so decided to pour herself a glass of wine to calm the temper or else god knows what will happen to MM when he finally shows up. Now, in a backpacker's hostel, one must not assume it is like a hotel. There were no wine glasses in the room! Never fear, there's always the communal kitchen down the hall way. No wine glasses there either, so I suppose a coffee mug had to suffice. Classy.

MM arrived some time later to find a rather tipsy Miss X, and was just as surprised at his choice of hotel. Cant believe they didnt just check out and go somewhere else. In the middle of the night the PA system (yes, there was a PA system in every room) came on with an announcement about "Rock Night" happening down in the bar. Oh, and free pancakes for breakfast the following morning.

I guess we should try everything once in our lives. I've experienced this through Miss X. Thanks.
