This is kind of a two-parter (and a little long, sorry):
Part 1:
I've had my thinking cap on back at the lab for a few months now trying to devise a way to beat the adage "you can't have your cake and eat it too." And I can't decide which plan of attack would produce the least collateral damage, so I shall present it to the Board:
You're going to be in town for a week. You want to spend most of your time with your LBOC (one of your all-time faves, whom you enjoy and want to continue to see in the future), and still occasionally have your fun on the side. You got in pretty deep last time to the point where she's feeling a bit proprietary, and hasn't reacted well to butterfly hints thus far (though, not outright negatively).
Which do you advise, esteemed Members:
1 -- Tell her the situation flat out, tell her to take it or leave it, deal with the drama and maybe lose her and access to her bar? (she's really fucking hot, btw)
2 -- Tell her "only you", have your fun on the sly, saving the drama but being annoyed at having to run around like a child sneaking things?
3 -- (And, only mostly-kidding here...) Actually sit her down in the beginning and just be honest, tell her you want some time off but you're going to pay her for the week and how much she's getting, give her a small chunk up front, and see what happens? Or something along these lines? (Again, I know this is a joke, but there may be some valuable input out there)
4 -- Other
Part 2:
5 -- How much is a weekly rental running these days, for a favorite LB, during the holidays, in a "global financial blah blah blah..."?
6 -- Can you get a cut rate on a weekly bar fine?
Cheers, and thanks, Gents.
