It has been exactly a year since my husband was away on a week long business trip.  The week he was away, I entered into a torrid Internet affair with a man half my age.  I did it to save my marriage that had been in a steady state of decline for a long while.    On the day that my husband returned from his trip, I set out to seduce him,  I had never done that before, always waiting for him to make the first move.  My poo...

I am a middle-aged woman whose marriage is in decline.  I *do* love my husband.  Didn't I?  I mean we had four kids, the two girls were in their 20's and both in university.  The two boys were "Oops" babies, and at nine and 12, they kept us young and very busy.    My husband and I had been married nearly 30 years.  We got married right out of college.  I got pregnant right away, much to the amazement of the doctors, who s...

The Blizzard of The Century, or at least that is what the media was calling it.  It was snowing so hard that the hospital didn't let the day shift go home, that is how dangerous it was.  Not to mention the fact that the night shift couldn't get in.  I was working with one of the male nurses that I have an absolute crush on, which is kind of silly, since we are both pushing 50.  We have been out for coffee, and out on a da...

I had just finished a stretch of four night shifts in a row on a busy cardiology ward in the hospital affialiated with the local university.  We had very busy nights and not time for breaks, there are nights when you don't even get a chance to pee.  The past four nights were those kinds of nights.  I went home the morning of my last shift with the beginnings of a migraine headache, and after a shower I collapse into bed,...

After months of phone calls (thank god for long distance bundles) and emails, I needed to see my lover again.  I took vacation and booked a cheap flight to Seattle.  I was going to see him again and just the thought was enough to send me looking for my vibrator. (I've even named the damn thing Norman!)  I mean, what does a single girl do when her man is 1100 miles away!  I was flying in November to spend American Thanksgi...

Never having been a techie I was leary on meeting people on the Internet, but I was lonely and needing some companionship and joined a chat room to do just that--chat.  Well, one evening I was in the room and in pops a man with a marvelous sense of humor.  I sat alone in my living room and laughed at his comments.  I sent him a private message and asked him where he'd been all my life.  He replied, "right here, where have...
