Just Like Old Times

Remember all the sex we had in 2012?  You might, if you were reading this blog back then.  It was a banner year that saw us expanding our sexual horizons and trying lots of new things.  We also blogged frequently – almost every day! – and perhaps related, we were having a lot of sex.  In fact, I’d go so far as to say that 2012 saw us having more sex than we ever had before, or since.  In fact, we had so much that we even published a short-lived weekly blog feature called Sunday Scoreboard, in which we kept track of all the shenanigans that took place during the previous week.

The reasons why 2012 was pretty much a non-stop fuckfest are many. For one thing, readership of this very blog was at an all-time high. We interacted more often with our followers on Twitter, and as we learned of new sexual bells and whistles we found ourselves eager to try them out. Essentially, we found ourselves a community, and it influenced our sex life in many wonderful ways. It made us strive for an even better sex life than we already had.

For another thing, our daughter was a toddler. She slept a lot, and when she wasn’t sleeping she was, for lack of a better word, unaware. Does anyone remember the time Jill and I had sex on the living room floor while our daughter was down for a nap, and she woke and wandered into the living room? She was barely two years old, so her discovery of her mother and I in the throes of coitus wasn’t an issue. Now she’s five. She’s ambulatory. She’s vocal. She’s able to process things and talk about them. Should such a thing happen now, it’s going to lead to a discussion. And while we have no problem with the idea of talking about sex with our offspring, giving her a visual presentation of this type when she’s vocal enough to describe it to her kindergarten class is something we’d rather avoid.

Additionally, now that she’s five she’s much more active than she was back then. She’s got a very busy social schedule that includes not only school but also sports and other extracurricular activities. And while this schedule sees her sleeping on the kind of schedule we only fantasized about when she was a baby, she’s not the only one who’s tired. Not only do we drive her to school and all of these activities, but we also cook her meals, play games with her, and do all the other things you’d expect of two devoted parents. We’re fucking exhausted.

Thus the last couple years have seen us having less sex than we did in 2012. Admittedly, it’s still a lot; it’s just less than it was. Neither of us is upset over this. While I could easily stay up until two o’clock in the morning on the average weeknight before my daughter was in school, now it’s simply not an option. One of the most challenging things in life may be finding the right balance between sleep and sex, and I guess we’ve found it.

This week, our daughter is staying with her grandparents. Accordingly, Jill and I have been having sex like rabbits eating carrots laced with Spanish Fly while watching the 24-hour rabbit porn channel. It’s been amazing, and it feels like a return to form of sorts. Admittedly there hasn’t been a lot of variation, and little beyond the basics: Our favorite handful of positions, no fisting, no anal. The things we usually do when our daughter is away because we have unlimited time and no worry of being walked in on have been put aside in favor of much-needed closeness, and it feels great.

We get our daughter back on Sunday. There will be much more sex between now and then, possibly because we know we won’t be able to maintain this breakneck pace much longer. Especially once Christmas break ends on Monday. Perhaps we’re bingeing because we know it’ll slow down once we return to the routine. Still, we’re going to try and see how long we can keep it up.

We hope 2016 brings you everything you desire.  Happy New Year!

Happy Holidays

Late Wednesday night I took some photos of Jill in front of the tree before taking her from behind (as seen on Twitter). Here are a couple shots; we hope they’ll put you in a festive mood if you aren’t already.

Sorry we’ve been missing in action lately.  September and October tend to be busy months for us, but this year November and December turned out to be even busier.  We’re hoping that 2015 brought you happiness and health, and we hope 2016 is even better.  We’ll try not to be strangers.

Sinful Sunday: Reflected in the Faucet

While scrubbing the master bathroom, I caught sight of myself reflected in the fixtures and decided to snap a picture.  (Yes, I usually clean house naked.)  If you look closely you’ll notice that the hand that’s not holding the camera is wrapped around my cock.

See who else is being sinful at Molly’s Daily Kiss!

Thank you Recusen for this week’s TMI Tuesday questions.

Jack’s Answers

1.Do you speak any languages other than English? (English first only because the blog is mostly in English.)
I speak Spanish, and understand a couple other languages well enough to get by.

2. If you answered yes above, would you describe yourself as fluent? Which was your first language?
I don’t know that I’m fluent in Spanish; I understand it better than I speak it, though I can speak it well enough that native speakers would understand what I’m trying to say but probably make fun of me afterwards. In my late teens and early twenties I dated a lot of native Spanish speakers, and picked up even more of the language than I did during four years of high school Spanish. And my first language was English.

3. Did you study a foreign language in school (including college or University)? How much do you remember? Has it been useful to you? Can you speak it, or only read it?
As stated in my answer to #2, yes, I took four years of Spanish. It has been useful to me, mainly when trying to understand what the parents of the aforementioned women I dated were saying about me.

4. If you were going to learn another language, which one would you want to study?
I would like to study Huttese so that I could successfully negotiate the release of Han Solo from Jabba’s palace.

5. Do you have relatives who speak a language different from your own?
While my family’s native language is not English, I don’t believe I have any relatives who don’t speak English. Is that what this question is asking? I’m not sure.

6. Have you been to a country where you don’t know the language? How well did you cope?
Yes I have; however, in most of the countries to which I’ve traveled English is spoken or at least understood. I coped pretty well; it’s surprising how quickly you learn to order copious amounts of alcohol in whatever the native tongue happens to be.

1.Do you speak any languages other than English? (English first only because the blog is mostly in English.)
Not really. Does sign language count? I took three years of that in college as a foreign language.

2. If you answered yes above, would you describe yourself as fluent? Which was your first language?
I’m not fluent in sign today, but I can finger-spell reliably, definitely enough to get my point across. Also, and this may or may not be related, I’m very good at fingering. (My first language was English.)

3. Did you study a foreign language in school (including college or University)? How much do you remember? Has it been useful to you? Can you speak it, or only read it?
In college I took sign language, but you already know that. I also took Spanish when I was in high school, and since I taught in a couple heavily-Hispanic schools early in my career, it really helped. Now, nearly twenty years later I still know some words pertaining to clothing, and most colors. But I don’t remember much else.

4. If you were going to learn another language, which one would you want to study?
I would probably choose to learn Italian. My grandmother spoke it, and I always liked the sound.

5. Do you have relatives who speak a language different from your own?
My in-laws speak a language that is not English. I’d be more specific, but it’s a fairly obscure language, and Jack worries that revealing it would be a dead giveaway. (It’s not Klingon.)

6. Have you been to a country where you don’t know the language? How well did you cope?
I’ve been to Spain, Italy, and France. I did pretty well there despite not knowing the local languages. In some cases I traveled with fluent speakers who did all the talking, while in other cases I was able to either point to the word for whatever I wanted or otherwise make a passable attempt.

TMI Tuesday: August 17, 2015

Hello. Welcome to TMI Tuesday.

That was random!

Jack’s Answers

1. When you first skied down the slopes of love with your significant other were you a:
a. bunny hill beginner
b. a seasoned ski bum
c. black diamond risk-taker pulling out all the tricks and inversions
It was probably along the lines of “bunny hill beginner”. While I was very knowledgeable on the subject of sex when I first had it, I had little or no physical experience beyond making out and some light feeling-up. I’d be inclined to go with “a seasoned ski bum” if only because of my extensive knowledge; I read anything that dealt with sex that I could get my hands on, and while I knew of its many variations I wasn’t brave enough to ask my shy sixteen-year-old girlfriend to indulge me. Certainly not the first time, anyway.

2. If you had a sexual encounter in a taxi cab and the meter was running, costing you $1 per minute. How much would that cab ride cost you?
If you’re trying to ask how long it usually takes me to have sex, I’d say about twenty bucks, minimum. If you’re really asking how long I’d have sex in a taxi cab, it depends on a number of factors, including how far we’re traveling, the comfort level of my partner, and for that matter that of our driver. If we’re just taking a five-minute crosstown trip I’d probably save the stripping-off and actual fucking until we had arrived at home (or wherever). It’s not because I’m afraid of being seen – you should know by now that I’m an exhibitionist – but because I can’t imagine the back seat of a taxi being as comfortable at age thirty-nine as it might have been twenty years ago. On the other hand if the driver is into it, and capable of driving while sneaking peaks in the rear-view mirror, we might ask him or her to take the scenic route.

3. Who has the better sense of humor, you or your significant other?
Me. My significant other is hotter, though.

4. What is the weirdest part of your nightly bedtime routine?
Probably the arcane series of rituals and catchphrases in which my daughter and I engage before she goes to bed. Some parents just give their children a quick hug and kiss and say goodnight. My daughter and I have a nightly routine that’s so complicated and bizarre that it makes the “Shimmy Shimmy Coco Pop” scene from Big look like two people exchanging a curt nod.

5. Fill in the blank: I can’t stand to be called ______ .
On the phone. Text me.

6. What household item do you use and never put back where it belongs?
I don’t think there are any. I’d love to have a more interesting answer, and in fact if I could think of anything I’d happily list it here. But I’m very conscious of having an orderly house and therefore I do my best never to leave anything out once I’ve used it. The closest thing I can think of is the frying pan. If I cook something on the stove I will sometimes leave it there while it cools (and I eat), and once in awhile I forget to put it in the dishwasher.

Bonus: The first bed you ever had sex in, was it twin, double, queen, king -sized or some other size?
It was a fairly small bed in my aunt and uncle’s guest room. I’m going to say twin. Read all about the experience here.

Jill’s Answers

1. When you first skied down the slopes of love with your significant other were you a:

I was a bunny hill beginner. I hadn’t had any serious relationships at that point, nor had I ever been in love. My sexual experience, or lack thereof, meant I was far from seasoned.

2. If you had a sexual encounter in a taxi cab and the meter was running, costing you $1 per minute. How much would that cab ride cost you?
I would guess about $60, just to make sure we were both thoroughly satisfied.

3. Who has the better sense of humor, you or your significant other?
Probably Jack. I think I have a great sense of humor, but his is better. At the very least he tends to tell more jokes than I do.

4. What is the weirdest part of your nightly bedtime routine?

I think my nighttime routine is fairly normal. I don’t do anything special or unusual, just the same kinds of things most people do before bed. However, I often fall asleep while lying down with my daughter and putting her to bed. That’s as weird as it gets.

5. Fill in the blank: I can’t stand to be called ______ .

Ma’am. It makes me feel old. And when I’m teaching by the end of the average day I can’t stand beng called by my last name or “teacher” because I’ve heard it almost nonstop all day long.

6. What household item do you use and never put back where it belongs?

Probably my daughter’s hairbrush. Her hair is usually the last thing I do before I leave for work in the morning and I most of the time don’t bother to put it away.

Bonus: The first bed you ever had sex in, was it twin, double, queen, king -sized or some other size?
The first bed I had sex in was queen-sized, although the first time I had sex it was on a couch.
