Slightly blissed-out

jayI'm still wearing little stick-on pink and purple hearts across my chest, a child's gift. And I like her color choices.
Today got off to a good start with a visit to a chiropractor -- my back is much better. A little bit of NASA work, then off to San Leandro for a late lunch withdawnd and who_is_she, visiting from Seattle. Convertible top down, roaring up I-880 going 85 in the sunshine... warm wind caresses. Then arriving and meeting who_is_she in person for the first time (actually, we'd crossed paths briefly at a PPP but didn't know each other then).
We walked to lunch, about a mile each way, going to a local sushi bar. Conversation flowed easily and we were the last to leave the restaurant. After returning and helping with a homework project, I was introduced to tantric breathing... starting with lots of eye contact, hands apart. Then light touch, progressing to hands-on-chests, then synchronized breathing. All with careful checking-in, and fully clothed. Shivers at times... a feeling that I could almost see into the other person... flushed at first, then tingly. A trancelike state, tunneled down to the other's face and eyes... intense. But relaxed. Afterward we hugged hard... then I spent the next 45 minutes or so being giggly, in some kind of mildly-altered state.
*Something* happened... it wasn't what I was expecting. But I was happy and a bit blissed-out. I don't know how other people manage to go to workshops and such where they do these exercises with 30 people... seems like my brain would short-circuit after about three!
