Apropos of Nothing

Sep 302011
 

It’s been a while since I’ve done a brain-dump post so here’s some random things on my mind today…

21 years ago yesterday Veronica and I met at a keg party while in college and we’ve been together ever since. Times flies when you’re having fun!

=================================

Tuesday I had lunch with Katie. Why? I tried to end things with her via email, but she just didn’t get it. We’ve had some email back and forth since then and she seems to think that she can shelve the emotional stuff and go back to being fuck-buddies. I needed to see her face-to-face and reinforce that it’s over.

I guess I’m not very good at ending things.

I didn’t lead her on or invite anything, but when she suggested that she could come over next week when Veronica is away, I didn’t slam the door on the idea. (She already knew about V’s trip.) Then yesterday she emailed me, going on and on about how nice it was to see me, how she’s missed me and how she’s looking forward to seeing me next week.

Yeah, I gotta email her and tell her no, it’s over.

=================================

Work generally does a GREAT job when someone losses a family member, has a major medical issue, gives birth to a child, whatever. There’s always a card for the occasion, sometimes there is a collection if a gift would be appropriate, and there’s a mass-email to the entire workforce. It shows that they care.

When my step-dad died several weeks ago, I let me immediate supervisor and a couple of other key leaders know. At the very least, they needed to know because I needed to take some time off so I could go to the funeral.

Was there any acknowledgement of my families loss? Nope, absolutely nothing.

I made an off-hand comment to my boss the other day and he blew me off. Totally pissed me off.

=================================

Had something odd happen last night. I crawled into bed, snapped a photo and texted it to a couple of friends of mine. Some of them know each other, some don’t. Moments later one of them said something on Twitter about getting a text from an area code she didn’t recognize. I recognized the area code, one of those friends who got the photo lives there.

Somehow, she replied-to-all to a text message. I didn’t know that was possible.

Or, I sent it to her email by mistake and she replied to all that way. But I have no idea why she would do that. She and I hope to catch up and chat this weekend, it’s been a while, so I’ll ask her so I can figure out what happened. Fortunately my other friend understood what happened when I explained it to her, so there was no harm done.

=================================

I need to find some photography inspiration, I feel like I’m in a rut and just taking pics to take pics. Plus, I bought an external flash a couple of months ago and still haven’t put in the time to really gain control over it, it’s kicking my ass.

Any Project365 theme ideas? I’m open to suggestions!

=================================

This will be my first weekend at home in 3 weeks and the forecast is calling for rain tomorrow. I hope so, I could use a rainy day spent in the house wearing sweats and a t-shirt.

Enough brain-dumping, I am at work, I suppose I should do something!

Have a great Friday!

Day 272 – Things we can learn from dogs

 Tagged with: , ,
Sep 292011
 

[Photo is at the bottom of the post]

From Ned Hardy

When loved ones come home, always run to greet them.
Never pass up the opportunity to go for a joyride.
Allow the experience of fresh air and the wind in your face to be pure ecstasy.
When it’s in your best interest, practice obedience.
Let others know when they’ve invaded your territory.
Take naps and stretch before rising.
Run, romp, and play daily.
Avoid biting when a simple growl will do.
On warm days, stop to lie on your back on the grass.
On hot days, drink lots of water and lie under a shady tree.
When you’re happy, dance around and wag your entire body.
No matter how often you’re scolded, don’t buy into the guilt thing and pout… run right back and make friends.
Delight in the simple joy of a long walk.
Eat with gusto and enthusiasm.
Stop when you have had enough.
Be loyal.
Never pretend to be something you’re not.
If what you want lies buried, dig until you find it.

And MOST of all… When someone is having a bad day, be silent, sit close byand nuzzle them gently.

And if you’re my dog, don’t hesitate to claim your owners chair as your own!

Nipple Clamps

 Tagged with: , , ,
Sep 292011
 

We’ve reviewed a few toys for The Adult Toy Shoppe before and they’ve been a pleasure to work with, so when I was contacted and asked to select something from either the anal toys or bondage categories, of course I said yes. After browsing around for a bit, I settled on some nipple clamps. Veronica generally prefers a gentler touch on her nipples, but I thought we could give it a try anyway.

[You may have seen the clamps on each of us a few weeks ago in a Wanton Wednesday post]

Since this toy was for Veronica’s use, I’ll turn it over to her.

=========================================

Veronica: We were both curious about them.  They arrived pretty quickly in discreet packaging.  We tried them on immediately to do Wanton Wednesday photos.  My 1st thought was “ouch!” but thankfully the clamps were adjustable, so we were able to make them more comfortable for us to wear.  Once on, they were pretty cute.  I liked how they brought my nipples out and I thought the chain gave me a very tough girl look, which is different from the usual cute housewife, naughty librarian look I normally sport.

Hubman and I used them during sex.  We put on the clips and I climbed on for my favorite ride.  We had to adjust them a few times during sex as they slipped off my nipples once or twice, but we soon found a tension that was both comfortable for me and would stay on my boobs.

Hubman tugged on the clamps, and I bounced extra to make the chain move.  I am not a fan of rough nipple play so I did not enjoy the extra stimulation they provided.   I was also worried about accidentally hitting Hubman in the face with the chain during sex if I started moving vigorously so the clamp inhibited me a little bit. (Hubman: Oh please, like a little chain in my face would bother me!)

So while the nipple clamps are well made and are attractive and easy to use, I did not enjoy the product, but I attribute that mostly to the fact that I do not like rough nipple play.  If you want to get into rougher nipple play, I would recommend this product since the clamps are adjustable so you can get used to an increasing amount of pressure.

=========================================

When I went away last weekend to meet a twitter friend for some fun, I included the nipple clamps in my bag. After the weekend I asked her for her opinion of them

Being as I have very sensitive nipples I have never played with nipple clamps before. The nice thing was they were very adjustable, they went from tight & painful to a very comfortable squeeze. Plus, even on comfortably, you could give the chain a tug and it didn’t seem as though it would pull off easily.  I prefer a hand or a mouth on my nipples, but if that weren’t the case I can see how they would be handy.

I had to ask her a follow-up question – would she agree with the statement that nipple clamps might be better suited for a woman who enjoys a rougher touch on her nipples, or maybe a little pain with her pleasure?

Yes.. I thought they were interesting but I don’t see how they would benefit me. Someone who enjoyed the rougher stuff would have a use for it.

 =========================================

So 2 women, neither of whom particularly enjoys a rougher touch on her nipples, agree that while the nipple clamps are well-made and easy & fun to use, they’re not quite for them.

I do have a friend who enjoys a painfully rough touch on her nipples, I’ll have to get her opinion when the opportunity arises!

Thanks again to The Adult Toy Shoppe for sending us the nipple clamps. In the interest of full disclosure, they sent us the clamps free of charge, in exchange for this review. They have a variety of other bondage gear along with many other categories of toys, you should check them out!

Wanton Wednesday – Airport Fun

 Tagged with: , , ,
Sep 282011
 

The idea of the Scavenger Hunt is to be inappropriately exposed in various places.

I could be butt-naked in a park
I could have my pants down around my ankles while in my office at work
I could be exposing myself in the middle of the road

Or, it could be something tamer, yet inappropriate in it’s own way, depending on your perspective.

What we have here is a normal appearing couple sitting in the airport waiting for a flight and holding hands. What you don’t see is that I’m heading home to Veronica, and she to her husband.  You also wouldn’t know that we spent the last 48 hours engaged in various carnal delights, which our spouses knew all about.

I suspect that would be inappropriate to a number of people.

*click-click to see my view during lunch at the airport*

If you really want to see more of my friend, you may already have, she was my HNT Mystery Guest not too long ago :-)

Day 270 – Lube

“Honey, can I be a little high maintenance about something?”

You gotta love Veronica, even when she’s being high maintenance (and she really isn’t, she’s about as low maintenance as a person can be), she’s polite and asks if it’s okay.

“Of course baby, what is it?”

“Can you get more of the ID Glide lube, I prefer that over the other stuff for butt sex”

Yes, this conversation took place while I was in her ass.
Yes, I got out of bed to take this photo once I was done with her ass :-)

Breaking the Law

 Tagged with: , ,
Sep 262011
 

I came across a website with a list of Massachusetts laws about sex.  Let’s start with adultery

MGL c.272, s. 14 Adultery.

A married person who has sexual intercourse with a person not his spouse or an unmarried person who has sexual intercourse with a married person shall be guilty of adultery and shall be punished by imprisonment in the state prison for not more than three years or in jail for not more than two years or by a fine of not more than five hundred dollars.

Commonwealth v. Stowell, 389 Mass. 171 (1983). The court held that the Massachusetts adultery statute was not unconstitutional and that it was proper to have applied it to consensual acts between adults in private.

Uh-oh, just by the number of partners alone I’m looking at 30+ years in state prison!

Let’s see about sodomy. BTW as I write this Veronica has a new glass plug in her asshole :-)

MGL c.272, s. 34. Crime against nature.

Whoever commits the abominable and detestable crime against nature, either with mankind or with a beast, shall be punished by imprisonment in the state prison for not more than twenty years.

MGL c.272, s. 35. Unnatural and lascivious acts.

Whoever commits any unnatural and lascivious act with another person shall be punished by a fine of not less than one hundred nor more than one thousand dollars or by imprisonment in the state prison for not more than five years or in jail or the house of correction for not more than two and one half years.

Commonwealth v. Balthazar, 366 Mass. 298 (1974). The “unnatural and lascivious acts” statute has been held to include public fellatio and oral-anal contact.. “must be construed to be inapplicable to private, consensual conduct of adults.”

Gay & Lesbian Advocates & Defenders v. AG, 436 Mass. 132 (2002). “Our holdings in the Balthazar and Ferguson cases concerning acts conducted in private between consenting adults extend to § 34, as well.” [private consenting acts will not be prohibited].

Lawrence v. Texas, 539 US 558 (June 2003). Texas sodomy law ruled unconstitutional by US Supreme Court.

OK, as long as I’m not getting a blowjob, rimming someone or fucking someone in the ass in public, I’m safe!

Lastly, there’s fornication to think about

MGL c.272, s. 18. Fornication.

Whoever commits fornication shall be punished by imprisonment for not more than three months or by a fine of not more than thirty dollars.

Fort v. Fort, 12 Mass. App. Ct. 411 (1981). “The crimes of fornication, adultery, and lewd and lascivious cohabitation are never, or substantially never, made the subject of prosecution.”

Attorney Gen. v. Desilets, 418 Mass. 316 (1994). “This statute is of doubtful constitutionality, at least as applied to the private, consensual conduct of persons over the age of consent.”

Oh good, this one isn’t constitutional, it would seem.

Click here for others, including bestiality and prostitution, among others.

Day 269 – Putting their feet up

 Tagged with: ,
Sep 262011
 

After dinner at a nearby restaurant Veronica, Loves2Watch and Suburban_slut (no links, their Twitter accounts are locked) sat back, put their feet up and picked on me chatted about all manner of topics.

I enjoyed seeing both of them again and for Veronica it was her first time meeting either of them. We had a great time!

Expectations Exceeded

 Tagged with: , , ,
Sep 252011
 

A year ago, she caught my eye on Twitter and I started following her.

10 months ago, she changed her avatar to a provocative cleavage image. I DM’d her and asked if there might be other, even more revealing, photos of her out there, if I looked hard enough. There weren’t, but that didn’t stop her from emailing me a little visual treat.

7 or 8 months ago, she and her husband opened up their marriage. Veronica and I offered some advice to them and we’d like to think that we’ve helped them successfully navigate the open-marriage waters.  (Veronica- I always love hearing from people who are thinking about opening things up.  The open marriage people are a great community)

4 months ago, she and I thought we might have a chance to meet. Too bad I was in her timezone, and she in mine, at the same time.

2 months ago, another opportunity arose. She was coming to somewhere on the east coast for a week for a conference. Calendars were checked, spouses were consulted, and soon thereafter I bought my plane ticket.

3 days ago, I was sitting in the lobby of her hotel, waiting for her to walk in the door. We were going to have almost 48 hrs together…

=================================

It’s always interesting meeting friends from blogging or Twitter. Will you hit it off really well? Just get along? Not get along that well at all?  Physical attraction, even after extensive photo [and some video :-) ] sharing, isn’t enough. We’ve committed to spending 2 nights together, after only speaking on the phone once before. We’re pretty sure we’ll get along fine, but you never know.

Fortunately, our mutual concerns were quickly cast aside and we established a wonderful personal connection.

Hours of pillow talk in the room

Wandering around a city neither of us knew well at all, even though I’d spent some time in the area before

Taking photographs with her. Thanks to her, I now have 3 weeks of Wanton Wednesday photos, at 3 more Scavenger Hunt locations, ready to go. You might even get to see some of her.

Walking hand in hand through a park and having an older gentlemen remark that we looked like such a nice couple.

Talking about family, friends, Twitter friends, relationships, experiences

We never lacked for conversation. Or for desire to stop the talking for a bit and to fuck yet again.

=================================

I’m not revealing the identity of my Twitter friend, her online persona is a little more vanilla and no one there knows that she has an open marriage. I’m also not writing about our sexual escapades. We had fun, over and over and over, but the details are between she and I.

I will say this about her- she was fabulous :-)

=================================

Veronica: I know that for some people it might seem odd that I am fine with Hubman buying a plane ticket and fucking another woman.  I remember back when we had blog drama some people ripped into me for ‘staying home and baking cookies while my husband fucks other women.’  But you know, I like it.   It turns me on to think of Hubman pleasing, and being pleasured by someone else.  While I do not ask for tons of details, I do hear (and if I’m lucky see pictures) about the sexy fun that happened while I was making spreadsheet magic at work or reading “The Very Fairy Princess” for the 100th time.

One of the benefits of having an open marriage is that it gives us the chance to explore things that the other person might not be as excited about.  While Hubman and I are very compatible and enjoy experimenting, there are things that don’t work for us, either due to the 10″ height difference or a simple desire to try something the other person may not be interested in.  Having other partners gives us almost unlimited opportunities for experimentation, which is pretty stinking awesome.

And at the end of the day, you can’t leave out the emotional component.  Hubman and I may share our bodies with other people, and even deeply care about these people, but he is my Hubman and I will always be his number #1 girl.   It is this security in our love and commitment to each other that allows me to encourage him to go out and follow his heart (cock) and have fun.

Yeah, sunset pics are hardly original, but sometimes the sky looks sooo gorgeous I just can’t resist.
I swear, this is right out of the camera, no tricks in Photoshop to mess with the colors!
