I don't actually think that was a good thing. Yes the characters mature and age so the writing has to account for this on some level but realize too that the people that start the series and want to finish it may no longer fit in an age range that can read it.

The first Twilight is fine for a 13 year old girl, the last may not be even though she still wants to read it. The first Harry Potter was a children's novel intended for ten year olds. My daughter adores Harry Potter and read the first four when she was six. She can't read the fifth though because it is too scary and too hard for her to read. It really disappointed her because she is crazy into Harry Potter.

I don't think it is a good idea to isolate part of the audience that you already have.

She didn't, that's the point. People who started reading it at 11 or 12 finished reading it at 19 during it's publication run.

I see your point about future readers.

Lol, holy fuck. My Dad had the same Kimberley Conrad special edition in his toilet situated magazine rack. I smuggled that bad boy into my basement dwelling for weeks of fap-fantastic fun. It's probably been 25 years but I still remember her perfect nips..

Tuesday Sep 2nd: Was Jersey girl's birthday. Met halfway, checked into a hotel, she went down on me and I came in her mouth, I went down on her and she came, then she asked for anal, which she received. Left the hotel to go down to the pier in the area we were in, sat at a dockside bar and had oysters and drinks. She had a Manhattan, I had a Ballast Point Sculpin IPA. Went and got a couple cigars, smoked them and talked by the waterfront. Went back to the hotel, she went down on me again, she admitted giving head is a huge turn on for her and she "hopes I never get tired of it". I start thinking she's trying a little hard but find it endearing. We then went to a really great seafood restaurant I had made reservations at. Started with one of the best crab cakes I ever had, split a bottle of red from the Rioja region of Spain, she had sea bass I had swordfish and we sat next to each other, picking at each other's dishes and having a very honest conversation about the differences between men and women and how societal forces drive relationships. Went back to the hotel and had a lot more oral and a lot more sex. Immediately fell asleep.

Tuesday Sept 2nd: I went home from work and played games and surfed the internet a bunch. Wife reheated some enchiladas she made that were good.

Oh and one thing I forgot to mention. After our last alcohol fueled sex session she told me she was in love with me.

I guess I'm destined for married life, because Tuco's day sounds a million times more enjoyable than Khane's.

Just replace the oysters with Lofthouse sugar cookies, the crab cakes with pizza bites and the swordfish with Five Guys and you'd think my day was better.

I probably sold the enchiladas short. She has a family recipe she perfected, they are fucking delicious. She cooks the tortillas perfectly in a way that I could never accomplish. She fucked up the chicke nthough, I had to save it.

Khane is on the path of evaluation right now. Nothing to criticize as long as he stays in cruise control and enjoys the road for a while. She does sound fairly eager, but it could also be that finding a guy with similar interests in her age bracket who is not a complete tool is kind of difficult, especially in that part of the country. I wouldn't read too much into it at this point.

It didn't bother me at all. I'm falling in love with her too. But we met only 3.5 weeks ago. What she is feeling is not real, actual love, though it could very easily grow into that.

I am not at all like the guys she has dated in the past. In fact I am probably the polar opposite. All the guys she had relationships with previously were tormented, brooding academia types with no ambition. They just were not very happy people. Hence the last guy she dated ending up being a drug addict and trying to kill himself on her couch. Whereas I am very happy, very ambitious and also kind of a romantic, which is all new to her. I also care about how I present myself to the world when all her past boyfriends were essentially careless and slovenly in some sort of weird "fight the power" kind of way. She is very candid while also not being flippant about how she is feeling which is very nice.
