1. I will never again admit fault for something I didn’t do .

2. I stash Christmas presents in my closet.

3. Are you embarrassed when strangers start talking about their sex life to you?
I don’t think I’ve ever had a total, complete stranger talk about their sex life to me. I’ve had loose acquaintances do so, and that can be a little weird. I wouldn’t say I’m embarrassed, but sometimes people share way more than I really want to know.

4. Would you date someone who is celibate?
No, not unless I was also celibate. And I’m not, so I don’t think it would work very well.

5. What percentage does each of these activities–work, play, household, sex, rest/sleep have in your life? (Must equal 100%)
Hmmm….I would say
Work: 35%
Play: 10%
Household: 5%
Sex:  15%
Rest/Sleep: 35%

Bonus: How do you decompress at the end of each day? How would you like to decompress at the end of each day?
Usually I change out of my work clothes, have dinner, and then exercise for an hour or so before vegging out in front of the TV. I’d like to decompress by taking a hot bubble bath with a glass of wine, and then getting a relaxing massage that makes me fall asleep.

Wicked Wednesday: Suitcase

I’m always leery about packing good toys in luggage if I have to fly. It’s one thing to take a road trip with a suitcase packed with vibrators, lingerie, and floggers, but quite another to take that suitcase to the airport.

It’s a tough decision to put the toys in checked luggage or carry-on. Checked is usually fine for lingerie, blindfolds, floggers, and the like, but I always worry that either TSA is going to go digging through my bag to see what that 5 pound metal object is, or the bag will be opened and my expensive vibrator will “go missing.” The other problem is that many of my toys have rechargeable batteries, which aren’t supposed to be in checked baggage.

Taking a carry-on through security can be interesting, and it really depends on the airport. Going through screening in a big city’s airport, I’ve seen a few raised eyebrows, and I’ve wondered just how big does that oversized silicone dildo look in the suitcase? I’ve always either travel-locked the vibrators or made sure they’re not charged, and I’ve never had an agent pull one out for closer inspection there.

Small airports, on the other hand, can be a bit disastrous. I hadn’t flown out of one in quite a while, but the last time I went to Las Vegas I decided it made more sense to take the jump plane – it’s cheaper than driving, and a lot faster as well. While waiting in line to go through security, I noticed first that they were randomly opening large bags and rifling through them with gloves on. Then I noticed that they were opening every other carry-on bag. Apparently, just running it through the scanner wasn’t enough – maybe because we were going to Vegas? I had a 50/50 chance, and I knew mine was going to be opened. And it was.

The worst part about the agents opening the carry-on bags wasn’t that they were opening them, but that everyone in line could see what was in them. I was hoping my vibrators weren’t going to be waved about for public display, and they weren’t, exactly…but you could certainly see from the line exactly what was going to be buzzing for me later on that day. I didn’t get questioned about any of them, and I would have been fine if I had – I realized a long time ago that if I was going to be too embarrassed to explain what I was taking with me, I probably shouldn’t be taking it. Why yes, officer, that green tentacle really is a sex toy – let me show you how it vibrates and rotates…

Will I be taking toys the next time I fly? Of course. In my carry-on, no matter what happens.

TMI Tuesday: Faves, the Most, and Perfection

Let’s talk faves, the most, and perfection at TMI Tuesday blog.

1. Favorite childhood memory?
Hmmm…I think it would be visiting my grandparents during the summer. They lived out East, and at night I could catch fireflies by the jarful. Then, in the mornings, I would take a bucket and wander through the raspberry patch and get berries for breakfast.

2. Favorite moment in the last 3 months?
That would be spending New Year’s Eve at Epcot. There were tons of DJs, and the best one was the silent DJ Party, where everyone wore headphones – you couldn’t hear any music if you didn’t have them on, and everyone was dancing and singing – it was hilarious to watch before you got your own headphones.

3. Favorite drink on a hot summer day?
Oh, definitely iced tea with lemon and a spritz of sugar.

4. Perfect day out: what, where, with whom?
Let’s see – on the beach, looking for seashells, in Hawaii, with the love of my life.

5. Your most unexpected achievement?
That’s a tough one -probably that I made it out of my teenage years alive.

Bonus: The kindest thing you ever did for a stranger?
The thing that comes to mind is paying for the order for the person behind me in the drive-thru. It’s a little thing, but I’ve had people do it for me before, and it certainly makes my day.

Wicked Wednesday: Twenty-One

Painting by Carlos Schwabe called Spleen et ideal.

Twenty-one times I’ve seen your face
Felt its warm and kind embrace
And wanted you for my own.

To stare into your soulful eyes
It doesn’t come as a surprise
My love for you has grown.

Twenty-one times I’ve longed for you
For you to touch me as you do
And take me as your own.

From in my head down through my toes
From in my heart and to my nose
Longing like I’ve never known.

Twenty-one times I’ve felt your touch
My skin on fire, almost too much
The way you make me feel.

From kisses down my neck and throat
To places even more remote
The feeling is surreal.

Twenty-one times I’ve cum for you
While making love I know how to
Take you, make you mine.

The fire that burns within our souls
It doesn’t ebb but crests and rolls
And it’s a powerful sign.

Twenty-one times I’ve cried your name
I’ve heard you often do the same
Our voices joining in the dark.

Where one begins the other ends
It never breaks but sways and bends
And you have left your mark.

Twenty-one times you’ve made me cry
I’ve dreaded that you’ll say goodbye
And leave me sad and lonely.

I won’t go through this life alone
You are the brightest light I’ve known
You are my one and only.

Twenty-one times my love for you
Has known no bounds and yes, it’s true
I love you now and forever.

Our souls are joined within the void,
And love like this can’t be destroyed
Nor will it ever sever.

TMI Tuesday: Tell the Truth

1. A friend gave you a pie touting it as a favorite family recipe, and you ate this pie and got sick–or had an allergic reaction. The friend calls a few days later to ask, “How did you like the pie?” What would you say?
I’d tell them – because I certainly wouldn’t want them to give one to me again!

2. Your significant other really wants to try the “swingers’ lifestyle” but you really do not want to do this. Do you:
a. Tell him/her no, you are not interested
b. Do it, and go along to make her/him happy
c. Say yes, because you’ll try anything once
d. Say no, with no explanation and forbid your significant other from venturing into swinging.
Well, probably c). I pretty much will try anything once, and I wouldn’t know if I was into this until I tried it.

3. Have you texted nude photos to someone and had it come back to bite you in the ass–as is someone taking revenge for your misjudgement?
Fortunately no – it’s never come back to bite me.

4. Have you or would you ever stop having a relationship with someone who had a weight problem, and their physique drastically changed?
No, although if it was causing health issues I’d try and help them get back to a reasonable weight.

5. Would you rather find true love or win the lottery with winnings of $10,000 (usd)?
$10,000? I’d definitely rather find true love.

Bonus: Which topic of conversation do you avoid at all costs–politics or religion?
Both – I hate having conversations on either topic, and you certainly aren’t going to change anyone’s mind (or have your mind change) during the course of the soon-to-be argument.
