When my first love and I broke up I thought I would die, but I didn't, good friends, a bit of vodka and tons of ice cream got me through it, and after awhile it just didn't hurt so much...
Time does make it all better, unless you were meant to be with that person all along. At a recent get together of high school friends, we found that our "favorite sweetheart couple" that had been together al through school had split right into college. She never got over him, he never got over her, but last year they hooked up again and are getting married! It's just 20-odd years after everyone expected them to!
Another thread covered my main celeb crushes, but a recent illness kept me trapped at home for awhile, anda friend had given us several seasons of Smallville as a gift. Now I have mad lust for Tom Welland and Michael Rosenbaum. Lex can menace me and Clark can save me, but not too soon, let him really menace me thoroughly...:-)
Now that our little one is much easier and better with sitters, we do date night, and it's still wonderful! Our sitter is close by, so I'll shower and take my stuff over there. I change and get ready and he picks me up, always bring a few flowers or something, sometimes a silly little gift, and it's just like the old days! We go out to dinner, usually at a new place, catch up on our day, go to a movie or a club, where he "summons up the nerve" to grab my butt or kiss me, and it still feels good, eleven years later!
The perfect date isn't where you go or what you do, it's who you're with.
Bacon is sooooo tasty, and it's really a weakness of mine! Plus it's hard to nag hubby about staying healthy when I'm having a bacon cheeseburger and I insist on him having something healthier. I tell him once his choleterol levels look like mine, he can have bacon cheeseburgers again!
He's got a way of running his fingers through my hair that really gets me going, so I'm fine with it, plus I'm always pushing him deeper when he goes down on me, so no big deal...:-)
Right after giving birth was a long tough spell, we made love within a few weeks, but my ability to orgasm seemed to vanish. Took a month or so to get back into it.
A baby brother or sister for my little one, we're trying!
Christmas Vacation. The entire family loves it.
One thing I don't like about Halloween is that some of my nerdier ideas for costumes wouldn't be gotten by 99.999999% of the people out there. I'd love to put together a Mara Of The Acoma outfit based on the cover art for the Empire series, but maybe 12 people across the country would get it....I am such a nerd.
Sugaring, ladies, sugaring....less mess, no pain, no irritation...ancient ways are still quite valid!
My little angel has very spiky hair, and hubby thought that maybe we could feature that in her costume, possibly as a very young punk rocker, but then while reading the other night, he came up with the perfect costume for her. We found black pants and a red shirt with black horizontal strips for her and she will be Calvin, and hubby will be Hobbes. The trick will be to see if anyone remembers that classic strip! Still don't know what I'm going to dress up as, my thoughts so far have been Daphne from Scooby Doo, The Scarlet Witch, a flapper, or Lily Munster.
According to hubby the "not so baggy, and in fact, rather snug shorts" he wore on a big family vacation to San Diego, as I teased him in the elevator and as he got out sporting an incredibly obvious erection in front of, his mother, MY mother, my brother's wife, his sister, and his niece, as well as everyone else who was waiting as we were the last couple to arrive for dinner. Every female in the place except for myself stared for a few seconds as that thing melted away faster than ice cubes on a Texas highway in August! He was bright red and wouldn't look any of the women in the face all through dinner. It was....hilarious. He does not agree.YG4gJjsW6s7k9Zw4
"Oh, hi, good to hear from you, would you like to talk to my insanely jealous and hair triggered husband? 'Honey, put down your gun and come talk to my ex-boyfriend, here, he really wants to tell you much I mean to him and he"
CLICK.
I'd have them from time to time, usually more so if I was totally into the guy, but it's gotten easier over the last few years. I think for me part of it is the total love/lust/trust thing from a ten+ year relationship. Now actually guys, of late he'll orgasm, make a few more thrusts, and then pull out, but any number of times, he'll be lying there and spurt 3-5 minutes later. Is that normal? It's never a huge amount, but he says it feels real nice.
Well, the other morning as hubby and I woke up, we were both coming out of the deep sleep and as it happens we were both sort of playing with ourselves. As I realized he was doing the same thing, I gave him a grin and we just kept at it, finishing just a minute or two apart. We didn't say a word, we just got up, took a shower together where we kissed and caressed each other a bit with silly grins on our faces and as we walked downstairs with the baby in my arms he looked up and said "Keri Russell" and I said "Jon Bon Jovi" and we just dissolved into gales of laughter. It's not cheating, it's a normal fantasy/masturbation thing. If he didn't even think about another woman once in awhile, I'd be very worried. After all, my grandmother said she knew that's when my grandfather was dying, when in the hospital he didn't even notice the beautiful nurse or make a comment.
Under no pressure whatsoever. I had to talk him into it! The more or less true story is here....
Oi!!! We are soooooo not ready for #2!!! He's happy, I'm happy, she's happy, we'll worry about child #2 some other day...besides, pregnancy is not fun towards the end! The glowing, compliments, happy wishes, uncontrollable nymphomania are all great, but ugh, that last month felt like an eternity!!!
He hasn't done any "I can't wait" type of things, but it just seems a little extreme to plaster the poor thing with all that sports stuff. I like dressing her up all girly myself, time enough for the Raiders (and UW!) later, let her be a baby for now...
Raiders, 1-1, soon to be 2-1 as the Cardinals are going to be begging Warner to come out of retirement soon enough. Hubby and I have made our bet for our Halloween matchup, if the Raiders win, he has to dress up as a Raider for bed, if the SeaHawks win, I have to dress as a SeaHawks cheerleader for bed, and let the fantasies go where they may! Sadly, looking over the Hawks cheerleaders, I'm hot enough to make the squad at 41...that's not a good thing when a 41 year old recent mother can make your squad. Nothing compares to the Raiderettes, Football's Fabulous Females!
My job requires a lot of interviewing of patients, and many times, I record sessions, and last year I went fully digital with a new, state of the art model. I was testing it, seeing how well it worked for transcribing sessions. It worked great! Then hubby called, and our, uh, conversation got rather heated (I was in my second trimester, hormone overload), but we finished up our chat, no problem before anyone else got there. After lunch, a colleague asked about my new recorder and I showed him how well it worked, as my voice came from it, saying "God I can't wait until I can ride your cock tonight, you can fuck me all night long". You could have heard a pin drop in the office. I always had the playback level loud to aid in transcribing a session. Too loud. The girls just started laughing and my male colleague just shuffled out of the office with an embarrassed look. Now, I use headphones, just in case.
If the zombies show up, we're heading to the Winchester.
Wasn't sure how to word this, so don't get me wrong! Hubby has decided that our little girl, all of 7 months old, needs to have a Seahawks shirt, sweatshirt, cap and little jacket, a Boston Bruins sweatshirt, cap and shirt, a Sounders setup and a Mariners setup. Is this a normal thing fathers do for their daughters? Besides, I keep telling him, she'll grow up cheering for the Silver and Black like her mother does. If she has an interest in sports, we'll indulge her, but it must be HER choice when she's older. We agreed to not push her in any direction regarding sports, but do you think he's trying to cheat, just a bit here?
Nope, I'm not cutting it for "him". Luckily, he likes it long, but in ten+ years, we've gotten pretty used to each other.
John, no question. While the man had flaws (plenty of them), he did care about trying to make the world a better, more peaceful place. He also wrote some of the most stunningly beautiful music in history. "Woman" is one of the most perfect love songs ever written. And it works well to sing it your lady if you have screwed up, big time. You sing this to her and she STILL won't forgive you? You're in a world of hurt, my friend. Plus I will always give John credit for completely throwing away the whole "rock star" trip in 75 to raise a family. Having a child and being there for Sean was more important than making millions, and that's pretty admirable.

Oakland, and we're coming back, the commitment to excellence has returned! However, on Halloween Night, hubby will be the enemy as he hopelessly cheers on his SeaChickens against my mighty Raiders. We'll probably make up before bed though...:-) Born and raised in the East Bay, Silver and Black all the way! We do attend a fair amount of Seahawks games and I'll cheer for them against anyone BUT my Raiders.
A few weeks ago on our date night I went all out and dressed to the nines with my at one time customary green lipstick and while it usually gets a few looks, this one guy was staring at me the whole time through dinner and I wondered if he was a reader here who put two and two together as I've made no secret of the fact I live in the Seattle area.
