Musical inclinations

A fellow blogger friend had an anniversary yesterday and his words, both in his post and an email exchange today, reminded me of this song. His own situation and memories are not too far off.

Feels like Home sung by Chantal Kreviazuk is a favorite, which, whenever I hear it, evokes strong memories. Memories of a loneliness that I’ve lived with since childhood and memories of when that changed. It may seem overwhelmingly sentimental but I’m betting many of you can relate to that moment. Yes. That moment.

A favorite quote. Anais was well before her time, while Delta of Venus was published in 1977, she wrote it in the mid-40’s. I literally *squished* when this popped into my email recently.

just some humor

never childless when you have a husband

DH and I were talking about plans for Easter weekend when he asked if my brother and sis-in-law would be here this year. I laughed and said nope, the beauty of being d.i.n.k.’s is they can travel whenever they want. DH then started to wax philosophical about life before kids, which led to a conversation about what our life might have been like without kids at all. I pulled up the picture of this decal and smirked when I showed him 😉

dont disturb dont call cops bw

1. Have you ever had sex in three or more positions in one session? Name the positions.

More often than not. Bent over, reverse cowgirl, cowgirl, missionary, anvil…*blush*

2. Have you ever had sex continuously for more than an hour? Was it all intercourse or other methods of sexual pleasure?

Yes. Oh my wetness yes on a lovely evening, in a city where we are both anonymous in a room that was unseasonably warm.  And with him, it’s all methods of pleasure. *sigh*

3. Have you ever planned and devoted an entire day to sex and sexual activity (with breaks for eating, etc)?

Given our situations, it’s more like extended moments in time. And yes.

4. Have you ever been so loud having sex that housemates/neighbors commented or complained?

*Maybe* Ok, to be clear, I don’t think I’m that loud. However, at one luxury boutique hotel, the management informed me that my room wasn’t made up because housekeeping “heard” I was busy. Very busy. *blush*

5. Have you ever had your sexual technique/style/skill openly praised by someone?

Only in the last couple of years.

6. Have you ever gotten really turned on by saying or hearing dirty talk?

Oh my wetness yes. Both *giggle*

Bonus: What word or words said during sex totally turn you off or distract you from the task at hand?

“I love you more than my luggage.” *hmpf* or being compared to a former lover

The Search for Answers: ‘My Husband is an Asshole’

Another insightful and honest post from one of my favorites…

Matthew Fray's avatarMust Be This Tall To Ride

Maybe she was a housewife home alone. Maybe she was crying.

“My husband is an asshole,” she typed into Google.

More and more often, someone like her finds one of myAn Open Letter to Shitty Husbandsposts. Usually Vol. 1.

They’re getting 250-300 reads a day now, which is a lot relative to most of the posts here.

People are out there broken and looking for answers—probably easy ones—but there aren’t any.

When your marriage is falling apart, there are no magic how-to manuals on the internet to save you. No YouTube videos that show you how to do it better. No Buzzfeed lists to give you pointers.

A part of you dies.

So she types: “shitty husband” into the search engine and she stumbles upon this place.

…

Anne read Vol. 6. She wrote me:
