Formspring Friday: The Season For Giving

Do you guys give each other naughty presents over the holidays? Do practical items like new socks make it under the Christmas tree? 
(Submitted by Pagan Princess)
We do exchange naughty Christmas presents.  Well, that’s not entirely true.  Jack frequently buys me naughty things for Christmas.  But if I’m going to buy him a sexy gift it’s usually something for me, such as lingerie, which Jack will then get to enjoy.  I don’t usually buy sexy gifts that are actually for Jack.  For instance, I’ve never bought him a cock ring or a Fleshlight, or sexy underwear.
Festive, but he’d never wear it.
Typical naughty gifts from Jack include erotic anthologies and toys.  Most clothing, including lingerie and shoes, we typically pick out together.  While Jack knows what he likes, and what he’d like to see me in, he’s aware that something he likes might not necessarily make me feel sexy.  Plus he gets very horny after a day spent lingerie-shopping with me.
In 2006 Jack considered getting us a swing for Christmas, ideally something that could be attached to our bedroom doorway.  However, he didn’t really know enough about them, and of the handful of friends with whom we discuss sex, none were knowledgeable enough to help him make an informed decision about which swing to buy.  He ended up not getting one, which was probably for the best.  Instead he got me my Eroscillator and our Liberator Throe.  We’ve gotten more use out of each of those than I suspect we ever would have gotten out of a swing.
This year, we ordered a few items from EdenFantasys, including the Hitachi Magic Wand that we’ve both been enjoying, and an nJoy Pure Plug which hasn’t actually been used yet.  We will actually wrap those items and put them under the Christmas tree, then unwrap them on Christmas morning (not in front of mixed company, obviously), or else late on Christmas Eve after our daughter has gone to sleep.
In case you’re wondering, this year I’m asking Santa for this guy.

There will be some of this…

…and a whole lot of this…

…and maybe even some of this.

Flash Fiction Friday: Decking the Halls

Three of Santa’s helpers were in the great room, hanging ornaments from the boughs of a tall fir tree.  They were naked, their lithe and feminine bodies a welcome sight as the big man walked in from the cold.  He’d spent a long day at the workshop overseeing the elves.  Toys were the furthest thing from his mind.
That changed when he spied one of his helpers standing before a pillar.  Her wrists were bound above her head, and as she writhed in ecstasy, another helper teased her clit with a buzzing vibrator.  

“Hi Santa!” they called when they noticed him.

“Don’t stop on my account, ladies.”  After observing for a moment he left them to their play.

In his den, Santa sat in his favorite chair and began to peruse his naughty-and-nice list while planning for Christmas Eve.  An unexpected interruption came in the form of another helper, clad in black lingerie and a collar.  Her pigtails and her breasts bounced seductively as she crawled across the floor.

“Santa,” she said, “I’ve been so naughty.”

Santa rose from the chair.  Having Mrs. Claus spend the holiday with her sister wasn’t going to be so bad after all. (198/200)

Behind the Scenes

This week’s Flash Fiction Friday challenge, courtesy of Advizor54, was much easier than I was anticipating.  Participants were given three photos to choose from, plus a 200-word limit, and the prompt word unexpected, which I initially forgot to include, as I frequently do.  Extra credit could be earned by incorporating more than one picture.  In the interest of giving myself as much work as possible less than a week before Christmas, I decided to use all three pictures.

The prompt was posted on Wednesday, but I didn’t get around to viewing it until late Thursday afternoon.  Once I decided to incorporate all three pictures, writing the story was fairly easy.  I quickly decided to set the action at the North Pole, and though I toyed with the idea of making the ladies some offshoot of Santa’s elves (albeit full-sized), I soon decided to refer to them simply as his helpers.
I considered referring to Mrs. Claus being away for the holidays earlier in the story, likely as soon as Santa walked into the house.  But I’m glad that I saved it for the last line.  It seems to be a pretty good twist ending.
Deleted Scenes
This story was originally to begin with, “It was almost midnight when the big man walked in.  He’d spent a long day overseeing the elves in the workshop, and now he wanted to relax by the fire.”
In my original vision, Santa was going to be interviewing women from his “stable of elves” to find out whether they’d been naughty or nice.  Of course, it was the naughty ones and not the nice ones who were rewarded with a gift.  
I wanted to include mention of the candy cane crop Santa is holding in the third picture, but I couldn’t include it in a manner that didn’t feel forced and still fit within the word limit.  The picture can speak for itself, I suppose; the reader can extrapolate that after Santa rose from his chair he withdrew the crop and went to work.
Also, my original draft of the story was exactly 200 words, but because I forgot to include the required word I had to trim a few to make room for it.  As should be expected, the excised bits are simply superfluous words and the like.
Soundtrack
In the great room scene, wherein Santa encounters his helpers engaging in all manner of naughty play, I suggest Brenda Lee’s Rockin’ Around the Christmas Tree.  The fast tempo lends itself nicely to the party atmosphere.  Later, when Santa sits in his den, how about Lee’s I’m Gonna Lasso Santa Claus?  If the idea of Santa being lassoed undermines his ability to be dominant, let’s go with Santa Baby, as sung by either Marilyn Monroe or Eartha Kitt if you please.

The Naughty Hangout: Before and After

The main theme at The Naughty Hangout this week is “Excitement”.  However, I felt more suited to tackle the secondary theme, “Big and Small”.  The image seen below features my cock in its relaxed state.

Be sure to mouse over if you’d like to see it in a more tumescent condition.  Now that I think of it, the mouseover image is a perfect interpretation of the main theme.

See who else is being naughty this week!

Wicked Wednesday: Women Turn Me On

It’s no secret that I find women attractive.  Why shouldn’t I?  I am a woman, and I know how beautiful and desirable we can be.  Today, many of my fantasies concern women in some way, and on the rare occasion that I find myself in an intimate situation with another woman I savor every kiss, every caress, every taste.

Have I always been attracted to women?  I can’t say for sure.  While it’s something that I’ve been aware of for many years, I have only recently come to terms with these desires.  In my single days I was reluctant to admit that I found women sexy, so making love to one was certainly off-limits.

I don’t know why I was so reluctant, but I’m sure it has a lot to do with my Catholic upbringing and the way I was socialized.  When I was younger I was usually fixated on what I felt society wanted me to be, namely a wife and mother.  I assumed that once I settled down and had children, there would be no need for my eye to wander, whether to other women or other men.

In addition, I was determined not to disappoint my parents.  As the second eldest of a very large family, I felt as though I was the example my younger siblings were expected to follow.  I wanted to be what I thought my parents expected me to be.  So while I occasionally felt desire for women, not only did I stifle it, I usually admonished myself for it afterwards.

(I should make clear that nothing my parents said or did when I was growing up indicated anything other than unconditional love.  Regardless of my sexual orientation, I doubt that they would ever judge me.  However, that doesn’t mean that I want them to know that Jack and I practice occasional non-monogamy.)

When I was a teenager, or probably even a pre-teen, a very close friend of mine showed me a porn magazine.  It wasn’t the first time I’d seen one, but it was the first time I’d gotten so worked up about it that I had to get off.  I was sleeping over her house, and just before bed she brought the magazine into her bedroom so we could look at it together.

The magazine belonged to her father, and when we were done looking at it, she had to rush it back to whatever hiding place she’d taken it from.  Her parents were in the living room watching a movie, and we had about an hour before they would be going to sleep.  It was exciting to thumb through a magazine we both knew we shouldn’t have been reading, especially given the urgent ticking clock.

It doesn’t matter which magazine it was, or even what sexual activities were depicted on its pages.  What matters is that I found myself getting just as aroused by the sight of the women’s feminine curves, soft breasts, and aroused labia as I did by the firm chests, muscled arms, and thick, veiny cocks of the men.  By the time my friend returned the magazine to her parents’ room my pajama bottoms were very wet.

Before we went to sleep, we talked about the pictures and the stories in the magazine.  We both felt guilty about the pleasure we’d derived from our sneaky voyeurism, but not so guilty that we weren’t incredibly turned on.  Still, I wasn’t going to mention how sexy I found the women unless my friend did first, and she didn’t.  So the most I said was that they were pretty.

But after she’d fallen asleep I slipped a hand down the front of my pajamas and fingered myself for awhile.  It felt good, and I kept picturing one of the women from the magazine.  She was a cute strawberry blonde in cut-offs and cowboy boots who has a tryst with a sexy farm hand.  The farm hand was sexy, and hung, but for some reason I couldn’t get my mind off of the pretty girl he fucks in a hayloft.

I’d had orgasms before, though never with a friend sleeping right beside me.  In retrospect it was really hot to get off that way, though at the time having her next to me was an impediment to my orgasm.  After all, I was a young girl who was somewhat conflicted about her sexuality, and this was my best friend.

Now, though?  Now I fantasize about her pretty often.  We’ll never have sex, of course.  But I’d like to.

TMI Tuesday: December 18, 2012 – The Sexiest Thing

Jack’s Answers

1. What is the sexiest thing you’ve done in the last two months?
Without a doubt, spending Election Night having a threesome with someone we’d fantasized about for months was the sexiest thing we’ve done of late.  Read my barely-lucid late-night ramblings immediately following the experience here.

2. What is the sexiest thing you’ve worn in the last 30 days?
While I’m sure Jill will disagree, citing instead a pair of tight jeans that show off my ass, or a shirt that makes me look particularly attractive, I’m going to go with some manner of geeky T-shirt related to some aspect of pop culture.  Geek is sexy.
3. What is the sexiest thing you’ve watched in the last 30 days?
Probably Jill using our new Hitachi Magic Wand.  Watching my wife masturbate, and watching her climax, would be unbearably hot even if she was just doing it for show, i.e. to turn me on.  But the fact that she is being 100% honest makes any display of self-pleasure on her part ten times as sexy.
4. What is the sexiest thing you’ve heard in the last two weeks?
On Monday evening, during a particularly hot fuck session, Jill told me to pull out and come on her asshole.  I love it when she talks dirty, but when she’s on the brink of orgasm and breathlessly making such a lewd request, it’s even hotter.  Needless to say, I complied.
5. What is the sexiest thing you’ve said in the last 24 hours?
I’d be inclined to name some specific bit of flirtation I shared with someone on Twitter, but Jill says the sexiest thing I’ve said lately occurred on Monday evening when our daughter was sound asleep.  I took Jill by the hand, and with only a look I told her that it was time for sex.  I didn’t say a word, and it was apparently sexier than anything I’ve actually said.
Bonus: Tell us or show us something sexy.
Here’s a picture of Jill using her Eroscillator and her Hitachi Magic Wand simultaneously.  

Jill’s Answers

1. What is the sexiest thing you’ve done in the last two months?
Definitely the threesome we had in November!  So much fun, but we wish we’d had more time!

2. What is the sexiest thing you’ve worn in the last 30 days?
My favorite black nightie with thigh-high stockings.  I always feel like such a seductress when I wear them, and Jack’s reactions certainly help.  We did a fun photo shoot in a hotel room last month, and not only did I feel very sexy posing in my lingerie, but the shoot led right into very hot sex.
3. What is the sexiest thing you’ve watched in the last 30 days?
Several months back, a hot friend sent us a video clip of her masturbating.  A couple weeks ago I found it in my downloads folder and really enjoyed watching it.  I love seeing her rubbing her clit with her fingers while working a vibrator in and out of her pussy.  I love hearing her moan as she climaxes.  In fact, I think I’m going to watch it again as soon as I finish answering these questions!
4. What is the sexiest thing you’ve heard in the last two weeks?
Many of our sexy blogging and Twitter friends have expressed their interest in playing with us lately.  It always turns me on to know that we turn on others, and I frequently find myself fantasizing about these as-yet unrealized encounters.
5. What is the sexiest thing you’ve said in the last 24 hours?
After making Jack sit through an interminable family party on Saturday evening, I told him that I’d make it up to him by sucking his cock until his balls ran dry.  I’m not subtle.
Bonus: Tell us or show us something sexy.
Here’s a picture of me in the lingerie I mentioned in my answer to question #2.

Top 100 Sex Bloggers of 2012

We have no good excuse for taking almost a month to acknowledge this, but in November Rori of Between My Sheets released her annual Top 100 Sex Bloggers list, and lo and behold, we’re included!

Needless to say, this is an honor for us.  We have no idea how many eligible sex blogs exist, but there were 250 nominees, so for us to have been selected for inclusion in the top 100 is very flattering.  In her post, Rori says, “you really shouldn’t care too much about this list. After all, it’s just one person’s humble opinion.”  But to us, one person’s humble opinion matters.  In general, we’ve always blogged for ourselves, as an outlet for our views, a forum to talk about things we might not be able to discuss in polite company, and a document of our sex life.  But knowing that Rori – or anyone, for that matter – likes what we do helps to justify our doing it.
Apparently Rori’s not the only one who enjoys our work.  We were nominated by three individuals:  Tom, of Three Spelling Mistakes; AHusbandof2SexualMinds, of A Husband of Two Sexual Minds; and an individual named Jim who doesn’t appear to be a blogger (or perhaps who nominated us under an alternate name).  If you’d like to help us thank Tom and Hubby, please visit their blogs if you don’t already.
And for that matter, pay a visit to each of the excellent blogs included in this year’s Top 100!

Formspring Friday: Holiday Madness

Here come the holidays. The insanity of parties, visits, visitors. The stress, lack of sleep…. does your sex life take a hit during the holiday season? 

(Submitted by Pagan Princess)

It’s appropriate that we’re answering this question today.  As we write this on Thursday night, we’ve just had a spur-of-the-moment dinner with relatives who are in town for Christmas.  Don’t get me wrong, it was a very nice visit, and we’re glad we were able to get together.  But they insisted on coming to our house with take-out rather than, say, meeting at a restaurant which would have enabled me to spend my Thursday in some fashion other than frantically cleaning our house from top to bottom.  The cleaning took time I wanted to use to write my Flash Fiction Friday story, and to work on this post as well.  Because most of our evening was spoken for, i.e. spent entertaining our guests, the blogging had to occur after they left and somewhat stymied my efforts to get to sleep at a reasonable hour, especially since sex with Jill before bed was mandatory.  Granted, I could have blown off the blog for one day, but that’s just not like me, is it?

Hopefully you have ascertained from the previous paragraph where the rest of this post is going.  December is an extremely busy month for us, just as we imagine it is for most people.  This weekend alone, we have on the schedule a holiday function related to Jill’s job, a baby shower (well, that one’s just for Jill), and two birthday parties on two consecutive days.  Granted, of these four events only one is specifically related to the holidays, but things will only get busier as we near Christmas, with multiple friends and relatives all in need of one-on-one time.  Some weekends we have obligations every evening, along with multiple events planned for Saturday and Sunday.

Additionally, December sees Jill baking almost continually.  Every night this week she’s been in the kitchen, making all manner of holiday goodies, many of which are given as gifts.  Some nights, after all is said and done, she doesn’t go to bed until it’s far too late to have sex.  On other nights, she’s too exhausted.  It isn’t unusual for her to just fall asleep on the couch.

That is not to say that we have no sex in December, or even that we have a significantly smaller amount than we do in, say, October.  It may be more difficult during the holiday season to have sex at night, but we do whatever we have to in order to ensure that we don’t neglect our physical needs.  Like anything else that is enjoyable and worth doing, maintaining an active sexual relationship often requires considerable effort, especially since we have a child whose presence sometimes impedes us.  We’re very fortunate that December sees Jill with a couple weeks off of work, during which time we’ve typically have as much sex as we possibly can.  If we’re not traveling – and we won’t be this year – we might be able to have sex three times some days:  Early morning, afternoon if our daughter naps, and late at night.  This won’t happen every day, but it’s likely to happen at least a couple times.

So in answer to this question, yes, our sex life does take a bit of a hit during the holiday season.  But we do our best to ensure that it’s a minor hit at best.
