We pulled into the parking lot for our counseling appointment last week and I noted that our counselor’s car wasn’t there yet.
“Ohhh, shit,” Jared and I realized in unison that we had scheduled the appointment for a half an hour earlier than usual, and that we were late rather than a few minutes early.
We stood [...]

“Hey, Smiley,” he said as he folded his 6 foot plus frame into the front seat of my two door convertible.
Smiley, he said.  And I did.  And in the same instant I forgot about how I had just spent the 30 minute drive over to his hotel wishing I had cleaned out my car.  The [...]

I am an unfortunate mixture of naivete, judgment and insatiable curiosity.
Never was this more apparent than when a girlfriend invited me to a “Passion Party” this weekend.
What, you may be wondering, is a Passion Party? It’s kind of like those Tupperware parties your mother used to go to. But with dildos.
I was surprised [...]

One of the benefits of an overpriced hotel room on Park Avenue is a well stocked mini bar.  While Holiday Inn would stop at $5 water bottles and $3 bags of peanut, the 70 Park Avenue goes the extra mile with Patron, Red Bull, and king sized Snickers.
And Intimacy.

I came home yesterday to a pleasant surprise. My husband was actually home before I was.
As I’ve mentioned here before, I spend a lot of nights in the house alone (or with alone with 2 kids) and Jared’s work schedule has caused more than a little bit of *tension* between us.

The guilt and anxiety that had been hanging around me all week lifted, and I found myself surrounded by an entirely different cloud.
I felt my shoulders relax and the air I was taking in [...]

“What the hell was THAT?

“
I’m just sayin’.

*OR: The post that makes my step mom wish she hadn’t given this blog URL to everyone in my dad’s office. Heh. (Hi, Tina! Sorry, Dad!)
You people are a bunch of freaks.
Seriously.
Sometimes I swear I am the only woman left who has sex in the dark. At night. At bed [...]

This conversation may or may not have recently been overheard in a bowling alley somewhere in Central Florida…
Husband (channeling Beavis): Heh. Look at your score. Heh.

Wife: Yes, I know. You’re beating me. Again.
Husband: Heh. Heh. No. Look.
Wife: (rolling my her eyes right out my her head) Oh Jesus. What are you, [...]

When we last left off I was hiding out on the patio, pretending to listen to Adam on the phone while my mind spun with how I was going to explain to my husband the scene he’d just walked in on.
It’s not everyday you surprise your wife in the middle of a naked photo shoot.
I [...]
