Salutary Lessons...

On Tuesday I received a phone call from
greyscar whilst I was at work. Gagging for a parmo, he decided to pay me a surprise visit by driving the two hours between Huddersfield and Middlesbrough. He also brought his mother with him, who I know quite well and with whom I love spending time - she's a sweet lady and a good laugh to boot.
Upon arrival I found out that she had bought me a charming little crystal clock as a housewarming present. It is really adorable and very much appreciated.
After this, we decided to pick up our takeaway before, shock horror, I realised that I hadn't tidied my room up. This presented a problem as not only was there a pile of dirty underwear on the floor but there were also various items of a sexual and bdsm nature littered around too. Thankfully I dived into my room and picked up the worst of the offending items before anyone could notice what they were (but sadly I forgot to clear up the bottle of lubricant parked on my desk right next to my bed. Ho hum).
Thinking the worst was over, we had a pleasant chat, shared drinks and they both saw my polar bear suit. They were tremendously impressed, particularly with the way that
mefurry had rectified the excess headfur that often pops out on Marylen's suits.
Greyscar then wanted to show me something on the computer so I let him turn it on, completely forgetting that my backdrop is also of a sexual (and furry) nature. Once the screen had loaded up,
greyscar recoiled in horror and quickly turned it away from his mother before she had the chance to see the image. Thankfully she was sat on the sofa rather than hovering over the computer when the screen came to life otherwise it could have been very embarrassing.
Many lessons have been learned from this little escapade, namely that I have to be far tidier lest I expose myself. Equally, I may have to set up a new log-in set up for my PC in case anyone else wants to use it. The fear of my father or someone stumbling across that is too great to even contemplate..
