Let the games begin. :lol
Lisa Kelly turned on the radio to set the mood.
As Tom Petty's new song "U Get Me High" played through the room, she lay on the bed and got down to business.
Facedown on top of her client's back, she gently stroked his arm. Their legs and feet intertwined.
She whispered in his ear.
"You may have to come over once a month," she said.
The client was Dan Haris, an old friend of Kelly's who wanted to try out her new business.
The business is Indy Cuddles, and it's pretty much what it sounds like. For a small fee — $35 for half an hour, $60 for an hour — Kelly will come to your home and snuggle with you.
Armed with knowledge from an illustrated book of cuddling positions, basic website design skills and a passion for human touch, Kelly started the business this fall. Since then, she has received the accompanying comments from interested clients. As well as detractors.
She has been called names, told that what she does is just a step above prostitution. One person called her an embarrassment to her family.
But when Kelly talks about Indy Cuddles, she is quick to discredit her critics.
"It's not sexual at all," she said. "It's something for people who feel alone or stressed out or in pain for whatever reason, lonely."
