I’d be a gum drop
1. I struggle with _____ . A lot of things. Parenting. Work/life balance. Self-image. My libido and hormone balance. My weight and health. 2. What do men like to talk about? In my experience…the same thing everyone else likes to talk about: what the know, what they love, what they want…work, family, sex, hobbies & interests. 3. Do you eat food samples in grocery stores (consider pre-covid times)? I used to do this quite a bit in Costco, and I still will if I’m truly interested in the product. 4. What don’t you have figured out? I’m not sure I have anything completely figured out, actually…if I’m honest. 5. What…

TMI Tuesday
1. Do you feel that happiness is luck or is it a practiced mindset? I definitely believe it is a mindset. And even if it weren’t, it certainly isn’t luck. Happiness is more a state of mind in which we accept our circumstances for now (planning and working to change what we must) and ourselves and find ways of feeling good in our world. Practicing gratitude, prioritizing relationships and connecting with others, being kind, smiling, being active and healthy, sleeping well, taking care of our needs and the needs of those we love, being productive and impactful in our work and activities. These are all ways of practicing happiness. …

TMI Tuesday 2/12/2019
The State of Happy 1. Do you like where you live or do you wish you could move? Yes…for the most part. I love the region. The Pacific Northwest is extremely beautiful. I have instant access to the mountains and the ocean, as well as lakes and rivers. There’s a lot of opportunity to get out in nature, and I am surrounded by green year-round. Washington is an odd state politically, though, and I could do without that aspect. 2. No matter what life throws at me, I believe that I can deal with it. Agree or Disagree? Once again, I’d answer, Yes…for the most part. I’m a pretty strong…

TMI Tuesday 2/4/2019
1. Do you express your sexual pleasure with moans, groans, sighs, and other noises (provided that you are actually turned on)? a. Yes, each time I have sex (90-100% of the time). b. Yes, on most occasions (70-89% of the time). c. Yes, on some occasions (40-69% of the time). d. Yes, on a few occasions (less than 40% of the time). e. No. Never, not even when I am really turned on. a. Yes, each time I have sex… I’d put myself in the “loud” category. I don’t full on scream or yell…I live in a smallish home where a child resides…so I’ve learned to keep my noises to…

TMI Tuesday 1/29/2019
1. What makes you feel unloved? I feel unloved when I’m left out of things…or when others do things they know annoy the fuck out of me…just because they are being careless…over and over and over (umm….i.e. socks next to the laundry bin). I also feel unloved when people don’t acknowledge special days (birthdays, anniversaries, Valentine’s Day). 2. What is the one act that a person can do that makes you feel loved? It takes very little actually. My main love languages are “quality time” and “acts of service” (though, the other three are appreciated quite a bit, as well). I prefer someone spending time with me over buying me…

TMI Tuesday 1/22/2019
1. What was your favorite part of yesterday? Masturbating. Video-taping it. And sending it to Mr. D as a surprise. This is not at all like me, and as I pushed the send button I sort of freaked out…but there was no “unsend” button to hit, so I was committed. 2. If you could make your own porn movie, what would you call it? Would you write it, direct and/or star in the movie? “Unexpected” – I’d take cliche porn ideas (teacher/student, nurse/patient, lonely housewife/home maintenance professional) and alter them to make them less “expected.” Like…maybe the teacher seduces the student, but then the students friends surprise them and end…

TMI Tuesday 1/15/2019
1. Who has the tendency to hold a grudge–you or your significant other? Him. He can/will/does remember everything anyone does to slight him…he never forgets and rarely forgives. 2. The last time you had sex, was it meaningful (making love) or trivial (getting a much needed fuck)? A little of both. A good Satuday morning roll in the sheets. 3. Do you have sex with your eyes open or closed? Both. I usually close my eyes to focus on the physical sensations, but I love the unnerving effect that direct, close eye contact can have on me. It has often led me quickly over the edge to orgasm. 4. When…

TMI Tuesday 1/8/2019
This week’s TMI Tuesday prompt looks deceptively simple, but I always find that fill in the blank prompts push me to think just as deeply as a question would. Here’s this week’s list: 1. I want to repeat _____ . 2. I want to lose _____ . 3. I want to gain _____ . 4. I want to enjoy _____ . 5. I want to savor _____ . 6. I need more _____ . Bonus: I will succeed in _____ . And here’s my response: I want to repeat all of my good habits on a regular basis…going to sleep at a reasonable time on work nights, drinking plenty of…

TMI Tuesday – “Relationships are Work”
Relationships are work 1. Lingerie–do you like to give it as a gift or receive it? No. Not really. I mean…I would wear it if my husband were to buy it for me, because it would obviously be something he liked and wanted to see me in. I’m not a huge lingerie fan, though. It’s uncomfortable. Yes…it can be sexy, and I’m all for the show effect, but I usually want it off as soon as possible. I don’t like to be pinched and constricted. I’d rather be naked. 2. What’s a good date night movie? It kind of depends on the “date.” I like action movies with a bit…

TMI Tuesday
1. If married, had you slept with any of your wedding guests not including the person you married? How many of the guests had you slept with? None. I moved to a new town for a job – which is where I met my husband, so most of my friends were new. My old friends were girlfriends…didn’t invite any guys I used to know. 2. Weddings again–Ever gone to a wedding and hooked up with another guest? Nope. 3. Do you get along with your partner’s family? Why or why not? Yes, mostly. His mom and his sister have some pretty major social anxiety, which makes it hard to “socialize”…
