Hand in my pants

Hooray for May! While it’s rapidly heading into the chilly season, I happen to be flinging off my clothes rather than wrapping up warmly. Why? Because it’s International Masturbation Month, and I want easy access to my nether regions!

Not that I don’t wank the rest of the year, of course – but come May I ramp up the intensity considerably. The rest of my spelunking-related-activities increase too. I suspect by the end of the month everyone will be sick of me talking about jilling, writing about rubbin’ the nubbin, whinging about my aching fingers, hunting for more batteries and taking up all the outlets recharging my toys – not to mention asking if everyone else is blissing off as well.

A brief break from wanking to bring you an update

It’s been a busy seven days since my first Wankfest 2012 update, but it’s not, unfortunately, just been from the masturbation. If anything, those frequent breaks for self-pleasure have been welcome pauses in amongst everything else – so that’s all good by me!

If you haven’t been keeping up with my spreadsheet, it’s a good way of seeing how I’ve been getting my rocks off. What I’ve been fantasising about, erotica I’ve been reading, and toys I’ve been using. My fingers have also been getting an excellent workout – both they and my clit are really feeling the effects! Despite creating rather a lot of my own, I’ve also been using lubricant in liberal amounts (I do recommend water-based ID Glide – we keep a pump bottle by the bed, and it’s so damned handy), and that keeps things nice and slick and slippery.

Bring on the wanks

It’s that time of year again – May is International Masturbation Month! In 2008 I challenged myself to wank every day in May, and blogged about it as I went. It was exhausting, but worth it! In 2010 I did it again, but upped the ante by not reusing any toy or product (or even my fingers, more than once) in the quest for self-pleasure.

It’s 2012, and this this seems to be becoming a bit of a biannual tradition …

Melbourne!

It’s 11am Friday (New Zealand time) – which means it’s 9am in Melbourne. And that means, if my plane hasn’t been delayed, that I’ve touched down, and I’m probably standing in a customs line bouncing excitedly and a little tiredly (tiredly because I had to leave the house at 3:45am to get the airport on time)!

Melbourne! Tethys! It’s happening! Holy moly!

That’s a switch!

It’s summer, and that means summer barbecues. Nothing like quaffing liquid which make you tipsy, eating nommy foods, and talking about kink to make the days go by!

There have been a lot of summer barbecues over the last few weeks, and the most recent was just yesterday.  It was great to catch up with friends, and one of them, iona, mentioned a quiz she’d done recently – and how her results had changed so much since last doing it. The quiz? Do You Have an Inclination for BDSM?

Ending with a bang

It’s the last day of the 2009. Some would say it’s the last day of the decade (depends on whether you count that as this year or next, I suppose!).  So it pleases me no end that I was able to begin the last day of the year with a bang.

The clock-radio turned itself on at 6am – it’s job is to wake Apollo up so he can go to work. But it woke me up as well, and I lay there listening to the sounds-like-a-dalek news, my arse tucked into his lap as we both lay spooning together.  The sun was up and creeping around the edges of the curtains, and breeze from the top windows was markedly cooler than the last few days, and not as stiflingly hot.

Is it any wonder?

I seem to be all over the internets at the moment… which is pretty cool, actually!

A roundup of me-ness from the last week:

The delectably tart Luka interviewed me over at the Boudoir, drinking tea and letting it all hang out on her chaise lounge. This was the inaugural Boudoir interview, and she is looking for more exhibitionistic folks – so let her know if you’re interested!

Who was watching?

The lovely Vanillamom was inspired by my recent What a View posting, and wrote some hot erotica indeed! So hot it made me squirm …

It’s called ‘The Window’, and this is how it begins:

He was watching her again. He was standing at his window, telescope set, when she walked into her bedroom. He watched her peel off layer after layer of her day, until she was down to her silky maroon chemise and “gawd amighty thank you, ” he whispered reverently, panties to match. He watched her hair swing against her back, and he smiled when she opened her closet door. Inside that door was a full length mirror, so now he could see her from the front and back simultaneously. Heavenly!

General Amnesty the second

I love getting to know my readers – many of you are regular commenters, or follow my twitter, or say hi to me in chat. And that makes me happy! But for all of you who say hello, there are even more who follow along and never say a word.

Which is okay too – I did that for years! But making friends – some of whom become kissing friends – makes me happy! Last year my first General Amnesty turned up a lot of interesting folks. So let’s see what we get this time around

Libido a-go-go

My libido has disappeared. Again. Has anyone seen it?

I like my libido – I like it a lot! So I make sure I take very good care of it – I pet it and feed it and treat it well and ensure that it gets all the attention it wants. So I am very sad that it’s gone missing.

Yes, I miss my libido. It’s kept me great company for the past 11 years, although there was a whole year before that when it was AWOL. I thought I was the only one that had ever lost their libido before – until I went to Family Planning and was told by a kindly nurse that it happens to most of us at one time or another, and that it would eventually come back. Which was small consolation at the time (for me, or for my boyfriend)… but ultimately it was true.
