Well, with temperatures close to 90 today, I'd say summer is here. I think I finally ditched the leggings (which I totally consider a type of pants, BTW) at least until this fall. From here out it is just skirts and dresses for me (and I guess, shorts and bikini bottoms, though if this summer plays out like last, they'll both get very little wear. Yesterday I wore a long, black convertible dress to work. I wore it as a halter, with nothing underneath. I guess it looked pretty formal because I got asked why I was so dressed up by several of the guys at work. Although I did go out after work, I just wore it to be comfortable. I converted it to strapless before I left work, which I think looks super sexy on me. Today I opted for a just-above-the-knee peach color slipdress. Nothing fancy, buit still sexy enough to turn heads and of course comfortable as hell in this heat.
A couple weeks ago we hired a second woman at my office, a new marketing director (we haven't had one before now). I was a little apprehensive of her starting--I really thought it would change the dynamic in the office. After all, I am the office tease and being the only woman here lets me get away with anything. Another woman would change all of that--or so I thought.
Her name is Roxanne and graduated from the same college I did, though a couple of years behind me. Though she looks a bit familiar, I didn't know her in school. She's originally from down south somewhere, but stayed in this area after school, working as for a larger company. Although business is booming for us, we are in a recession, of course, and that got the best of her old job.
When Roxanne started, she dressed the part of the corporate-America type and my first impression of her was that she was kind of a snobbish suit. It didn't take her long to relax her ways and follow my lead in the fashion department--tshirts, tanks, strappy dresses--she's even going braless. I've been burried in work (I'm still doing double duty as sales director and software developer), so I hadn't had a chance to get to know her until one day earlier in the week.
On that particular day, I was having a really tough time. We had a developer go on diability (nothing serious, just a scheduled surgery--he'll be back in a few weeks) while he was working on a really tight deadline. I took on his project and was having a hell of a time getting it to do what I wanted, and I think my frustration was noticed by everyone. It was that day that Roxanne asked me to join her for lunch saying that I needed to take some time to relax. "There's a beach not too far from here that I like to go to and relax when I'm having a bad day. Let's grab a bite to eat and take it to the beach."
A beach? I had no idea. As much as I pressed, Roxanne wouldn't reveal any of the details. We grabbed sandwiches as a nearby natural foods restaurant and got in the car to head to the mysterious beach. When we got there I recognized the place. It was a piece of private land on the river, owned by some hippy guy that he advertises by a small sign on the side of the road as "legal nude beach, open to public." I had been there a few times on weekends, but the small beach seemed less like a beach and more like an orgy most of the time with many people engaging in sex. At lunch on a weekday, though, Roxanne and I had the place to ourselves and it was quite nice.
Roxanne explained, in a way that seemed to imply that she wanted approval to do it now, that she often lays out in the sun in her underwear at lunch. I said "don't change your ways because of me," and she quickly removed her cutoff jean skirt revealing a skimpy black thong. She left her cami top on, presumably because she was braless that day. I kicked off my flip flops and walked toward the river bank. The sand felt good between my toes. I really wanted to take my skirt off too, but I had no panties on and I was affraid of what Roxanne would think. "If you aren't comfortable, I'll put my skirt back on," she said. "No, no," I replied, "I don't mind. I'd take mine off, but I'm not wearing panties today and I didn't want to upset you." "Upset me?," she said, "actually I kind of lied before--I usually take everything off when I get here and go nude," and with that off came the panties, followed by the top, followed by my top and skirt.
Standing there naked with my new coworker, a feeling came over me that I can best describe as erotic. I've been naked with lots of friends and I've never felt this way. I've never even had this exact feeling when I was with people I've dated in the past. Maybe it was because of the feeling of vulnerability of being naked and alone on the beach. Maybe it was becuase of the fact that I was currently naked and, in less than an hour, would have to present a new project plan to upper management. Maybe it was Roxanne's geogeous beauty or her souther accent--Roxanne is very attractive with curly, light red hair, a rather light complexion, and a southern accent that could make any guy melt.
Though I don't consider myself bisexual, I did have my first sexual experience with another girl in high school. We actually cared on a secret reltionship for close to a year and no one ever found out! (I guess that's a topic for another post.) I've always been too embarrased to ask another woman out, though, so my new found feeling for Roxanne are now safely hidden away in the depths of my mind. She's probably not into chicks anyway.
One thing I did tell Roxanne about was my cabin. I am planning on heading up there for Memorial Day, so I invited her along and she accepted. I was actually planning to leave tonight, but Roxanne has an important meeting with an ad agency at work tomorrow, so we'll leave after that's over. It won't be a typical "naked all the time" weekend becuase I plan to show Roxanne around the area, but I have a feeling that clothing will be kept to a minimum for both of us. I'll blog about what (if anything) happens when I get back.
Starting next week we are starting our work-from-home summer program again. I have other things to tend to next week, so I can't just stay at the cabin after monday, but I am looking forward to another summer of nakedness starting in another week or so. Stay tuned.
